Do You Remember

Her

Clarity's Pov

"NO NO NO! YOU PEOPLE ARE DOING IT ALL WRONG! I TOLD YOU IT FALLS AT A HALF TEMPO SLOWER NOT WHATEVER YOU FEEL LIKE!" This is not the first time we've had to go over it again and again. I'm just happy that after today it'll never be something I have to endure. I swear I can't stand listening to this guy anymore, I get that he's an upperclassmen but like shit man.

"You know what? Will, I'm done. This is my farewell to you and this bullshit practice that you've had us go through this entire fucking semester and I'm glad that tomorrow I'll be one step closer to following my dreams. I'll be on the other side of the country and away from you. I'm going to finish my schooling at the best art school there is. I'll be attending Julliard. Goodbye Dickbag."

I grabbed my bag and walked out of the dance studio. I can't believe what a dick he is. I can't believe at one point him and I dated. God I have no idea what I saw in him. He's nothing like... I can't think about her right now. That's something to think about tomorrow as I get on the plane to get to New York. 

When I graduated I wanted to follow her right away, but I knew doing that wasn't what her and I needed. I hate to actually think she was right, but her and I needed time to become our own people. Granted her and I were never together and there are nights that I wish her and I had actually had a chance to do everything we needed and have done it together. As I walked into my dorm I grabbed my shower catty and went to get in the shower. As I undressed my eyes landed on the necklace that hasn't been removed in the 3 years that I've had it.

'She was right. My heart would lead me in the right direction when the time came.' 

After my shower I collect all of my bags in front of the door and once I'm fully dressed I make my way out and to my brother's car. 

"Hey Stevie! I'm sorry that you have to take me to the airport but I had already sold my car to get another one over in New York. I just can't wait to get there and start my new life there. If that makes any sense to you. I just want to get out of here as soon as I can. I'm sorry for making you come get me at almost 12." I kept rambling and I think my brother could already tell why.

"Look sis, I can't tell you if she's still there and if she is there is no telling if she's dating anyone or something. She may have even graduated already. I don't know because Shaun doesn't tell me about these things anymore. He knows that it hurts to hear about her. So he stopped talking about her around us. And I get that you're excited to get there and I would be too, but please don't let yourself get hurt."

The rest of the ride was in silence, but a peaceful one. Nothing too extreme, but I really needed to get to the airport as soon as I could.

45 minutes later I was saying goodbye to my brother and boarding a plane to get to New York. There isn't anything else I could do, all that there is left for me to do now is sit on the plane for the next 5 to 6 hours and then get my classes for this spring semester.

----------------6 hours later------------

"We have now landed in New York it is 9:37 AM and thank you for flying Southwest."

As I got off the plane I stretched and took a deep breath. I made my way inside to baggage claim to pick up my bags. Once that was done I made my way outside to where my brand new White Chevy Malibu. I liked the car I picked because it's stylish and is pretty spacious for a small car. 

I loaded all of my things into the car and sped off toward the Julliard campus. Once I got there I went to the dorms and headed inside to see where my dorm would be. When I started walking into the dorm building a tall guy came rushing out and knocked into me. He didn't even stop to check to see if I was okay he just kept on speed walking toward his car. I think it was something fancy like a jaguar. Once the car was well out of the lot I walked into the building and was greeted by a friendly girl which I assumed was the RA.

"Hey how can I help you? Are you new here, because I don't think I've ever seen you here before. If you're lost I can give you directions to where you need to be? If not then my name is Michelle and I'm the RA for the fine arts dorms. And you are?"

I blinked a few times so that everything she said to me could process correctly. "My name is Clarity Howard, I'm a transfer student from the University of Washington. Yes I'm new, I know my room is somewhere in this building but I just need to know and I need to get my key, so if you could maybe, help me with that." I looked at the RA as she went back to her desk to check the system and everything she needed to do.

"So is this a co-ed building?" I had to ask out of curiosity. The RA looked at me like I was crazy then laughed.

"Are you referring to the tall kid that just ran out? That would be Zen. We don't label Zen but they're a 4th year, Zen stays in this building because it's the closest one to the job they have. Zen is an intern for Epic Records and if things go well then they'll be working for a seriously big record label." She walked back around the desk and handed me my key and my parking pass. she started walking down the hall and gestured for me to follow her, which I did.

"So this is the fine arts dorms. As we move up in floors the major changes. Zen is on this floor, that room right there belongs to Zen and only Zen's room. Don't go in there no matter the reason." 

I have no idea why she told me that but, I didn't really care. After another 5 minutes we stopped in front of another dorm which was a floor up from Zen's. "And here we are this is your dorm it will be just you and another dancer. Her name is Sapphire Fredrick. You guys will be taking a lot of the same classes. Alright if you need anything else you know where to find me" As she walked away I thought back to Zen and how Michelle said that they don't even pay attention to the gender of Zen. 

An hour later I finally had all my stuff set up and I had finished applying for all my classes. It was almost 10 by the time I was done. I took a quick shower and when I got out my roommate was finally here and she introduced herself and everything, but honestly I was too tired to actually give a shit to anything she was saying. Right up until she also brought up Zen.

"So girlie I know you haven't been here for long but I'm telling you now. Stay away from Zen, They're girlfriend is a complete jealous nutcase. Gorgeous girl but I swear for some reason all singers seem to be crazy." She said with an eye roll.

"So Zen's girlfriend goes to school here and Avoid them at all costs? Got it." I said as i laid down on my new bed.

"Nope Zen's girl is a signed singer for Epic Records, why else do you think they have that bomb ass car? I'm just saying. You're new and all so you don't know the power couple yet, so I'm warning you. they've been together for almost 2 years. You mess with Zen you're messing with the damn girlfriend too." She laughed in a sarcastic way.

"Trust me, I'm only after one person right now and that person just so happens to be the most gorgeous girl I have ever had the chance to lay eyes on. So I don't care much for Zen or their damn girlfriend. Look I have class in the morning so I'm going to get some rest. Goodnight" 

That's all I said before falling into a deep sleep thinking about the one and only Alyx.
