Skin... (H.S)

Chapter 1...

" Payton Marshall." The lady behind the large desk glares at the screen as she attempts many of times trying to find my name on the roster.
I never planned to attend this college but when my best friend Kadence moved here, I had to follow after her. Kadence is practically my only family and I wouldn't survive without her back in Australia.
" I'm sorry miss, would you sign this sheet and maybe I can re apply you into the system. It seems the whole college has been hacked." She sighs heavily passing me a single sheet of paper along with a pen. She continues to tap away at the computer, obviously the system being hacked wasn't the first time it has happened.
I nod giving her a smile, knowing that she wouldn't get many of those a day. Maybe she's just having a tough day.
I take a seat by the door leaning against my binder as a table to write on. Kadence had no trouble in applying for her dream college down the road, I however was looking forward to attending Wembley college. But Kadence always has other plans. She was always the one who wanted to go to college, have an amazing life with the best job she could get, as for myself all I wanted was a family by my side.
But while Kadence was following her dreams I was still alone, no family.

But luckily we had still arranged to be living together in a small apartment just down the block of town, along with two other girls I've yet to meet. I had only arrived here yesterday and had stayed in a old motel late last night.
" Zayn Malik." My eyes wander to a boy standing at desk. I didn't hear him come through the door.
" Ah yes, there all in here sir." The lady stutters quietly. I frown confused. Surely he's a bit young to be called sir. The boy turns his eyes meeting mine just for a moment before I'm forced to look away, his smirk being cruel. His eyes covered by a pair of sunnies.
The ladies eyes are wide as she stares at me before descending into the back of the office. Weird. Hopefully the whole town won't be like this.

I wait till the boy leaves before I resume filling out the page.

' Meet me inside. -K'
Kadence had gotten here a week earlier then myself, she had been living with the two girls who are attending the same college as myself. Kadence's college was a bit to far up there, she's a very smart girl.
I thank the driver before handing him a bill, climbing out he assists with taking my bag. His hunched over back makes him lean forward making me slightly taller then him, I cringe taking the bag from him just in case he was to hurt himself.
I walk towards the front door of the two story house, my eyes widening at the sight. It was huge for just two girls living here I wonder how could they afford it.
Kadence had told me about the house but I thought it would have been a rusted rented room. Nothing like this.

Opening the door I jump back being suffocated by Kadence. Her red hair bouncing all over the place.
" How was the plane?" She smirks as I roll my eyes.
" Terrible. I had a fifty year old chatting me up the whole way here." I glare at her.
She giggles taking my bag with her leading me into the large house. I was into a long hall to the left is a stair case, the two girls running down and before I knew it I'm tackled again.
" It's so good to finally meet you." A tall blonde haired girl laughs letting me go. Another with long brown hair smiles at me. Why must every person except the short taxi man be so much more taller then myself.
" I'm Haley and this is Macey." The blonde haired girl introduces.
" The whole gangs here now." Kadence shrieks clapping her hands before taking my bag again using her finger to direct me to follow her.
" Your rooms at the end of the hall." She says opening the door, again I'm shocked.
" Get unpacked and dressed we're going out tonight." Haley says as her and Macey walk through the door. I shake my head frowning as I look toward Kadence. It was her idea and I know it.
" Come on Payton its your first night here. Have fun." She replies her eyes begging. " She doesn't like to go out much." Kadence looks towards the confused two.
" Ohh, a bit of a party pooper. Come one Payton we'll all owe you one." Macey says a large smile begging me to go.
I sigh heavily rolling my eyes as I turn away toward my bag.
" Fine." I grumble picking out some shorts and a shirt.
...
It wasn't long until they were all ready to go in town. They were lucky I said yes since we didn't have college until the start of next week.
I was dressed in a pair of shorts and a cropped shirt while the three girls were over dressed in heels and a short dress, there height now towering over me in my converse.
" Let's take the back streets. I was walking around yesterday and found a club just through there." Kadence points toward a dark alleyway as we walk out onto the cold streets. I should've worn a jacket.
" No no. That ones a bit gross. I know one just across town." Haley's quick to reply to Kadence practically dragging us away from the dark cove.
Haley smiles at me brushing it off when I look at her confused, instead she takes my arm in hers while the other two walk ahead.
" I just don't like alleyways." She whispers down to me. I nod understanding, they were scary if you didn't have a light.
...
It took around twenty minutes to be stood in front of the night club. Drunk girls and boys surrounding the place. We were shoved into the sweaty box of people, Haley not daring to let go of my arm. Knowing I'll be dragged down as soon as she had.
We find the bar in the centre and stand around it, the bar wasn't as crowded then the dance floor luckily.
Kadence orders us all drinks, I decide one won't hurt. No one gets drunk off one glass.
...
It didn't take long for Kadence and Macey to be dancing drunk in the crowded spot. I laugh at there clumsiness as Haley watches sitting next to me.
" I'm guessing you're usually the one looking after Kadence?" She smiles down at my cup of water. I nod looking as she falls to the floor with Macey both laughing at each other. At Least she's having fun.
" I'm the same with Macy , but control my alcohol a bit better." She laughs at two.
" Oh god." Haley gasps, I turn to look at her to find her looking down quickly to her knees.
" What?" I ask searching around her to find a man glaring at her.
" We have to go." She whispers not daring to look up from her lap.
" Why, who is he?" I ask looking toward the man again to find more of them surrounding the one boy.
Before I could make eye contact with the others I'm quickly forced to my feet shoving through the sweaty people to be gasping when the cold night air hits me once were outside. But she doesn't stop instead she picks up her pace until we're at least a block away.
" What was that? We have to go back and get Kadence and Macey." I rush look behind me making sure we weren't followed. Her hand doesn't drop mine as she speeds walk, I'm surprised she ran that fast in those heels.
" He- we can't be seen by them." She again rushes her eyes searching around the dark streets. When her eyes land on something a head, I look to find a group of what looks like men. Not sure if there the same boys at the club I look toward Haley whose eyes are about to pop out of her head, her breathing quickly picking up.
" Oh god." She breaths when the group slowly grow closer and closer. I'm the first to tug at her hand but she resists frozen in her one spot.
" Let go. If there not good people we need to leave." I rush but she doesn't move or speak. How did they manage to find us.
" It's to late, just follow my lead." She whispers before there voice could now be heard as there now in front of us.
Haley lets go of my hand and I watch as she stumbles toward a boy, the same man who was staring at her in the club. He smirks chuckling as she pretends to be drunk in front of him.
" I knew that was you in the club Haley. Drunk already? It's only eleven." His voice is rough but his appearance is even rougher. She giggles touching his chest.
" Mhmm I was going to come dance with you baby, but Payton here wanted to leave." She looks over at me nodding. I stare at her in complete shock. Why would you tell them my name.
I then gasp when my view is covered, her voice still whining in the back ground. I look up slowly to find a curly headed man smirking down at me.
" You're Harley's friend?" His voice is even deeper and rougher then the first guy. And he looks much much scarier.
My eyes grow as I catch Haley walking away with the man his arm wrapped around her as she leaves. How could she do this.
" I would like an answer." I catch onto his accent as he gets frustrated. His eyes glow a dark green in the light of the moon. His eye brows furrowing into a frown.
" I -I guess, I mean we just met." I look away stepping away from him to be brought to a wall. My escape plan fading away. I hold my breath as he takes the advantage to trap me to the wall. His breath waving across my face.
" Would you like to come with us? We could join them, make some fun out of this night." I gasp letting my breath out when his head is leaning into my neck. I shake my head quickly.
" No I have a boyfriend." My voice fails me as it wavers and breaks. He chuckles making me jump against the wall. My hands then move and find myself shoving him away from me.
" I- I'm sorry." I look away and begin to walk away until my wrist is taken bringing me back into his chest my back hitting him hard. His other arm holding onto my waist tightly trapping me to him.
" I don't take no as an answer baby and I defiantly hate liars, but for tonight I will let that one slide. I will be seeing you around sweetheart." He kisses my neck slowly letting his arm slide from me setting me free. I take that as my escape and to run. I take a glance behind me to find him smirking watching me as the others make there way towards Haley and the man.
I turn running till I turn a corner. Eventually finding the street the house is on, I smile to myself running up the stairs till I'm safe in my room. What the hell just happened.

Yay first chapter finished. I won't be updating as much as I did with possessive but I'll try at least to once a week. Again this is not a sexual it's just a copy and re new.
