In the building where the presentations are supposed to take place, there are a lot of people there. Thankfully, Abby and I have each other because if we didn't I don't even know what I'd do.
We sit for quite a while going over presentation after presentation about everything anyone would need to know that has to do with college. I have a hard time sitting still so eventually Abby resorts to letting me tie and retie her shoes.
I just can't stay still for long for at all.
Once the presentations finally finish they release us to walk around through a big hall filled with a lot of people trying to recruit fratboys, sorority girls, and people who might want to be in clubs.
Having our schedules already planned through earlier meetings, we pretty much just get to walk around and scope out the cute guys.
Sorry, Sugar.
We can both look at the menu, we just can't order. I wouldn't want to anyway. Grey has my entire heart, the big brat.
There are many different fraternities that have taken on the act of making huge signs of recruitment and it's obvious that some of the new freshmen will definitely be joining them.
"Hey!" a voice calls out from one of the stands and I feel like running away. Abby and I turn to the source of the voice.
The towel guy smiles at us. I sigh.
"Why don't y'all join our sister sorority? You're free to party with us," he smirks and the guys behind him turn toward us. I thought he lived in a dorm?
"No thanks," Abby clears her throat and his eyes dart over to her for a second. They narrow before flitting back over to me.
"Where's your big fuckbuddy?" he questions me and I narrow my eyes. This guy just isn't worth my great insults, he's really not.
It's a shame his attitude is so crappy. He's actually very attractive but his attitude makes him ugly.
I want to compliment his cheekbones but I refrain myself very well.
"Don't be mean to me, honey," he smirks at me and my face falls. Mr. Terrip used to call me honey a lot.
"C'mon, Azalea," Abby grips my arm and starts pulling me away.
"Pretty name for a pretty girl," he calls out as we walk away. I roll my eyes and shake my thoughts away.
I really want a Grey hug right now.

Within a few days, classes have started and my routine has been set. I'm pretty good at my routine and I've been keeping busy.
The past four days, Grey has visited twice, one time bringing the guys with him. I missed them all.
They said they were going to try to sneak Bear in but he's a little hard to hide a dog that weighs 135 pounds.
Grey says he's sex-deprived. I say he'll be fine.
The first few days of classes were very, very stressful. I felt so out of place and so anxious, it was horrible.
I was mixed in with the freshmen that had started back in the fall and were just now taking my classes and I was also mixed in with some other people who looked to be older.
After a while though, it got better. Sitting in class, I would still get really fidgety and have a hard time keeping focus so I ended up getting a little stress ball toy from Abby and that helped a little bit.
By Friday, I'm excited to go home for the weekend. I've missed Bear a lot. And Grey.
I've been missing Mr. Terrip a lot too.
Abby and I decided to drive separately due to the fact that we're going to two separate places but we still leave and eat breakfast together.
