Six Strings and Sin

Summer was going on so well. My Aunt had an agenda for me apparently. After forcing me to tell her about campus, she said it was so we could get school out of the way then succumb to the invitation that was summer. I neglected to mention about the part that L. K was you know, how she was, but I did tell her about meeting the gang, the drugs, my kiss with a girl and she insisted I tell her what I thought about it, which I did. I told her it was a surprise to me at first, I didn't think too deeply about it and I was just about to mention L.K to her and my encounter but I restrained myself. She didn't push but by god did she try and matchmake me with every other single person at St. Joseph. Boys and girls all the same. Some we couldn't really click at all but no hard feelings, but surprisingly I met a few who went to the same campus I did. Those I did make an effort to get to know.

I managed to make 5 friends in total, and lucky me they all went to my Uni. There was Kailani, Cora, Talon, Kieran and Robin. All of us first years. There was the couples in the group, Kailani and Robin, Cora and Talon and then there was Myself and Kieran. He was the only one my Aunt hadn't met at all as he had just arrived today to hang out with his friends. The five went to the same high school apparently. I found myself attracted to him. I mean not to justify any means or whatever, you like who you like. Kieran was a rockhead like myself and he dressed the part as well. Someone from outside of the group would immediately judge him as a bad boy or rebel. Kieran is Spanish, Tall, 6'0 a head taller than me, not too built with muscles and not skinny , If I'd compare him to someone I'd say he was Chesters' build and looked nothing out of the norm, he didn't conform to the stereotype that comes with most Spaniards. If i can say so. He was Older than myself and the rest at 19, delay with starting school he said. He was so different from my personality, but he matched my energy and i could say that i enjoyed spending time with him over his summer vacation.

I introduced my friends to my aunty and she immediately like them. They also were comfortable with her sassy fabulous multimillionaire self, they took her jokes and boomeranged* theirs back. Perfect this was what I needed, friends that were comfortable with me and didn't feel awkward with my background. I had had a lot of shit for it in high school so for the better part of my Junior and Senior years I was shipped to a private school. I wasn't bullied per say no, I was just taken advantage of financially and also was never accepted as a friend by said leeches. It was always "Lizzie, my car broke down and I'm short on cash could you do me the favor, or Hey Lizzie let's go grab some lunch your treat right?, or Hey Lizzie loan me your car for the weekend I'll bring it back in one piece which was a big lie, it would come back and then straight to the junkyard, or how given I was a smarty pants they'd dump all their projects and assignments on me, that must have been what did it for my parents, they got called to school this one time when I was given the same assignment by different groups and I was becoming so fatigued that I had literally copy pasted everything from my end. It was a major issue and after me confessing, the students of my class were all discredited for that semester and they had to do the project again for the summer while I was moved from that school and flown away the next day.

I didn't have any friend or numbers of them anymore so i never kept in touch, never knew if a grudge was held against me. But that aside. I came clean to my friends as we all got to know each other, but still Never delved into details about L.K. My friends Lived in the campus dorms though different floors. We spend all of the summer vacation at my aunts house, the group of five had initially booked a hotel but my aunt refused them to commute back and forth nor rent a car for their time here. She literally called the hotel and told them to cancel the stay of the five no refunds and the bunch spend their time at my auntys'. Kieran and I were getting more and more Intimate, inseparable and I was glad for it.

Two days before we were due in campus, Kieran was to head back early and get his stuff ready for the next semester. He had apparently moved back home for his senior year of high and first part of the semester. He had enrolled at our campus but due to some issues at home he had to go back and sort everything out, he is an only child and didn't say more than that, I figured it was something he'd open up about later on. We took Kieran to the airport and then he was gone and would be back the day after tomorrow where we'd be leaving all together back to campus, he said he didn't have much to bring as he had already shipped everything from Spain and everything was already at the guys' dorm back in campus. I felt excitement build up with the idea I had but I didn't voice it out first I was going to wait until we were all on the road enroute to campus or there.
