Chapter - 01
There was a knock on Skylar's front door, her granny Nana was in the kitchen preparing for lunch and Grandpa was in backyard.
"Sky look who's at the door" Nena asked,
"Oky Nena" I said and walked to open the door.
I opened the door and saw a girl about my age was standing there,
"Hello! I Am Ruby. I am you next door neighborhood" she greeted with a huge smile.
"Heya Its Skylar Grace and Please come in" I said mirroring her action while opening the front door fully.
"So all set" she said looking around and gesturing towards the empty cardboard boxes.
"Yeah finally everything is set, it's very difficult task to unpack and setting things" i said to her blowing air to remove the hair from my forehead.
"Actually I came here to invite you to the party" She said to me while taking my hands in her.
"Ohh that's so sweet of you" i said feeling already happy about it.
"Who was on the door?" Nena asked while coming from the kitchen and erasing the imaginary creases from her dress.
"She's Nana my grandma and Nana, she's Ruby our new neighbor" I introduced them and Nana gave Ruby a big hug.
Nena then asked Ruby to have some coffee but she refused saying other time when she have the time.
"Ok skylar I should leave now but please come, it's a small party" she said.
"One more thing I forgot to tell you, the party will start after 9:00, so you can rest before all you want." She said with a wink and left.
I closed the door feeling happy because it's just two days here and peoples are already getting friendly with us. Nana asked me about the party if i am going or not.
"I am going Nena" I smiled to her. "What do you think what I should wear?" I asked her Because she's still a teenager by heart. She's more like a friend to me and always annoy me about boys, date and love.
"I will help you after few minutes, is that ok with you?" She asked heading towards the kitchen to complete her work there.
I reached my room and started looking for a good dress to wear. Few minutes later Nena entered in the room with face pack all over her face, looking at her i feel like she's going to the party not me.
"Can I wear this ?" i asked looking at the dress. "You are not going to wear this. I am not letting you to look like -i-have-no-sense-of-fashion-" she said throwing the dress in the bin.
"Ohh please Nana! Why did you threw it? It's simple and elegant" I glare at her. Then an idea came to my mind,
"Will these clothes look good on me?" I asked showing her a skirt with a full sleeve shirt, making a serious face.
"You will look like an old hag " she said glaring at me and threw it towards the last dress was sitting a.k.a bin.
Then Nena got a dress from the back of my wardrobe. It looked so beautiful, I throw myself at Nana and took her in a tight hug.
After a good nap, I took a long warm shower and wrapped the fluffy towel around me. Later I changed into my dress and prepared for Nena's torcher on my face.

At Ruby's home
When I entered Ruby's house, everyone was talking and dancing on fast song. Ruby came to me and welcomed me with a hug.
She dragged me across the hall towards the corner. She then introduced me to her friends and everyone is pretty nice except some drinkers who were making out grossly.
We talked for a while and then went to eat pizza. After stuffing ourself with pizza and coke, Ruby and her friends dragged me to the dance floor. We were dancing like crazy, like in the next moment the world will end.
Soon my bowel started feeling heavy that i need to go to pee so I went to Ruby's room to use the washroom.
After a while, when I came out of the washroom, there was a drunken man standing and looking at me with lustful eyes.
I thought he came to use the washroom but when I started walking passing by him to the door, he caught my hand in a tight grip and pinned me to the wall near the door pushed himself over me.
He was smelling of alcohol, I turned my face on the other side but he started giving me sloppy kisses on my nape and shoulder. I tried very hard to get myself out of his grip but he tighten his grip on me.
I was crying and thrashing to save my dignity but he was stronger than me. I tried punching him on the chest but he pinned my hands on the sides of my head.
On the next moment I didn't feel the drunken boy, when I opened my eyes to see what happen. I saw him on the ground groaning in pain.
Another boy was sitting on top of him, he was throwing punches on the drunken boy's face hard Until he became unconscious.
When my saviour looked at me, then I recognized that he was Jace Mathew, the popular guy Ruby and her friends were talking about.
"Thank you so much for saving me" I sobbed hugging him tightly.
"Not to mention doll" he smirked and takes me down towards the hall with him .
He asked me how I ended up here at this party. "I'm new here, precisely a neighbour, so Ruby invited me to the party" I said and smiled.
After a while I said goodbye to my new friends and walked out. Jace was leaning on the porch wall when he noticed me.
"Bye J"
I smiled and waved my hand but he grabbed my hand and pulled me towards him.
"Already?"
He mused. I flushed at his closeness and blushed. Not trusting the wine and my tongue, I nodded.
"Okayy my doll."
Jace hugged me and gave a peck on my temple. I was the first one break the hug.
"See you soon?"
He blackmailed me showing the gold ring I was wearing till the hug happened. Stupid i***t tricked me. I lunged at him but he raised his hand so I couldn't reach my hand.
"Okay fine. It's late already. I will kill you if you lost it."
I was annoyed that he took my ring and without looking back I speed walked to my house.
I Came to my room and went straight to take a bath, after scrubbing the alcoholic smell out of my body I stepped out in a long tshirt and jumped on the bed.
There is no better feeling then being in your bed after a tiring day. I fell asleep the moment my head touched the soft pillow.

After two day (Monday morning)~
I had breakfast with Nana and Frank(grandpa) and went to my car to go to my new school. It was an old Ford car of my grandparents.
I drive to the school and after twenty minutes I parked my car into an empty spot near the school gate.
I got my schedule for the classes from the receptionist. I wandered around to find my first class looking around.
This school is so classy and big, it's like i am walking in a president houses.
I round the corner looking for my class when I finally got to my class in the end of the corridor. I walk to my class and peeped inside the classroom.
"May i come in miss"
I asked looking back at me schedule to read her name.
"Yes"
She said and after I walked inside she introduced me to the class, they all welcomed me with a smile which I returned them.
"Take your seat Skylar Grace"
The teacher said to me and I walk to the window side row at the second last bench to take my seat.
My half day of the school went good and i made few friends they were so frank or I can say freaking awesome blah blah blah... I even sit with them in lunch and talked about various things.
After eating my lunch and giggling around with my new friends, I got to the library to issue my next class book which i forgot to take with me today.
I started looking for my book which i needed, in few minutes I found the book but other book got my attention in the rack which is placed above other books.
So when i went to take the book, someone from the other side pulled the book but i didn't loosen my grip on the book and pull it again.
"Leave the damn book"
The male voice growled and pulled it towards him but at the same time I pulled it too.
"Look you leave the book"
I grumbled and pulled it again and he too mirrored my action, This time I push the book in his hand and he faltered and bumped into the rack behind him.
"f**k"
He groaned while cursing.
"Serves you better"
I said to him and walked to the front where they issues the book and asked the girl to issue this book to me.
She started entering the details in the computer when a boy came and stood beside me.
"Hey you.. you are"
He trailed off embarrassingly.
"Skylar"
I smiled
"When did you joined the school?"
He mused
"Of course today silly"
I said to him.
"Did you like the school?"
He asked me stroking his hand through his voluminous hairs.
"Yupp"
I said popping the 'P' and looked at the girl impatiently.
The library girl gives me the book and I left with Jace, he asked me about my previous school and my schedule. He shares two classes with me.
He was good not like some boys who are waiting for opportunity to flirt well those type of boys don't need opportunity, they just need girl.
We chit chat for a while as he walked me to my class which he shared with me. He asked me to sit with him and i accept his offer.
"Give me your phone"
He said but didn't wait for me to reply and grab my backpack, I just stare at him and my mouth forming an 'o' in shock.
"What are you searching in my bag" I pull my bag from his grip but he pulled it back.
"Phone"
He said once again. I laughed at him for his foolishness and pulled my mobile out of my jean pocket to gave it to Jace.
He then saved his number in my cell and gave a Miss Call on his mobile. I just stare at him in amusement. This dude here is very fast.
"So tell me something about you"
He said.
"I think we should pay attention to the teacher"
I muttered to ignore his question but bammm.. he raised his brow
"Come on, I am not in a mood to answer your question right now"
I whispered screamed because our teacher was glaring at us.
"But i will know sooner or later" he winked and matched the intensity of the teachers glare.
"There is nothing interesting to know about me J"
I sticked my tongue out at him and started copying from the board.
When the class gets over Jace stuffed my books in the backpack and dragged me out of the class. I do not understand what is with people dragging me arround.
I had to speed walk to match Jace's big steps. Soon we were in the parking lot. He gave me a helmet and gesture me through his hand to sit.
"Oh hello I am not bunking"
"Yes you are doll"
"Okay but at one condition"
I eyes glint at the thought of my condition which made him to narrow his eyes.
