It's almost six and I have one hour to prepare that's quite a lot considering the fact that I'm not going to waste time on any make up or perfume.....body splash does the magic for me

I'm still thinking if I'm walking into a deadly trap and I remember how happy Aiden looked when I told him I was going to a party. Aiden is the one person in the world who's never quit on me he keeps on trying to make me live a normal teenage life...sort of...so when I told him I was going to a party he keeps on thinking that it's a step towards normalization.

I look at my phone and laugh at the blank screen saver it's a quote from a book. It's quarter past six and I still haven't found the psych to prepare for this death trap

At twenty five minutes past six I finally drag my tired body to the shower. I take a long hot shower and take even longer to wash my hair. I use the blow drier to dry it and the curls hang loosely to my back . I remove a pair of boxer pants and a sports bra from the drawer. My eye suddenly catches the lace underwear and I mentally regret my next decision

I return the boxer pants and sports bra to the drawer and wear the lace barely there under garments. I stare at myself in the mirror and for once I smile at my reflection. It's 6:51 by the time I finish dressing up. I slash my body with my usual aquamarine body splash and slide the black ankle boots on. I apply a little lip gloss and I'm satisfied with what I look like. I see Amell's jacket hanging on the door and I take it deciding to return it to him

I take my outdated phone and run downstairs. At exactly seven I get a text from someone whom I presume is Logan. I walk outside and find his black Audi packed outside our neighbour's street

I then remember that I told him to drop me off there the day I was attacked. Aiden isn't in the house so I lock it and put the key under the first vase outside on the foyer

I walk to Logan's car and he's leaning on the passenger door. When he notices me his eyes widen and I feel like I want to hide

Just for say....I've never actually worn jeans that cling on my body most of them are usually baggy jeans....so that explains why Logan is probably shocked

He doesn't say anything when I get nearer and he opens the door for me. When we get inside he turns on the heat and I open my window.

"You look....amazing tonight ," he says when we finally drive off the street

"Thanks it's nothing ," I say nervously and look outside

I place a chunk of my hair on my left shoulder to create a black curtain between us . I don't want any more complements not that I'm expecting any. I'm just hoping that Logan isn't planning on leaving me alone because I'm sure I won't want to socialise with anyone there. I didn't relate well to people my age maybe the fact was just that I didn't relate well to people period. Even my mom who I was closer to than probably anyone else on the face of the planet was never at peace or in harmony with me. At times I wonder if I was actually seeing the same things through my eyes that other people see through theirs . Maybe there was a glitch in my brain . But right now the cause didn't matter the effect was what mattered and tonight was simply going to be the beginning

........

The drive was silent and the only thing piercing through it was the song playing on the radio. A house music jam that I was familiar with. It took about fifteen minutes before Logan finally veered off the main road and we followed a trail of gravel to what seemed like an abandoned house or something of some sort

I could finally make out the huge metallic gate from where we were. Finally we got in and I was speechless

The 'letout' or whatever they called it.... was huge ...and when I say huge I mean huge. It looked like a mansion no palace. It was bigger than Logan's place. It had a huge fountain on the middle of the driveway and a lot of expensive cars were packed outside. The house had floor to ceiling windows and huge wooden doors

Logan packed next to a BMW and my heart began thumping rapidly when I saw all the people

"We're here ," Logan suddenly announces

Yeah you think I don't see that

I take Amell's jacket and take in a deep breath

"Make sure you have fun," Logan suddenly says

"I'll try ," I answer with a slight nervousness in my tone and open the door

Well....here goes nothing.
