She had printed off her plane tickets and now she just had to pack and then she would be off to California. She would have preferred not to go, since she’d rather stay snuggled up in Julian’s bed watching movies and playing video games. But she couldn’t let Julian come all the way back from California just to be with her, she would feel guilty from ruining his holiday time. So he had insisted that she travel to California and spend the holidays with him. Naturally what normal person wouldn’t love to go to Cali for the Christmas holidays, but Noah felt that she was taking advantage of Julian and his money. Even though he was the one who insisted, she would have preferred being able to pay for herself but she didn’t have a penny to her name.
Walking the short distance to her bed Noah reached underneath and took out an average sized suitcase. Placing it on top of her bed she opened the suitcase and began packing. She took out a notebook and wrote down everything she packed so that she knew if she was missing anything or if when she was packing to leave Cali later on she wouldn’t forget anything there. Noah also packed one of the t-shirts she had ‘borrowed’ from Julian before he left for Cali so that she wouldn’t miss him. The t-shirt smelt like him and comforted her so she didn’t tell him that she had it.
Noah heard a knock on her dorm door, she didn’t really know who it would be but she didn’t care, he was too busy packing. “The doors open!” she shouted to whoever knocked. She took out two dresses from her wardrobe placing them onto her bed inspecting them both, trying to decide which one she should take with her.

[/img][/div] ’They Will Not Control Us, And We Will Be Victorious’
Riley looked down at her phone to find that it had a message. She was sitting outside with nothing to do, so she figured she may as well listen to it. She hoped that it was a boy, maybe too shy to talk to her face-to-face, wanting to ask her out, or maybe he’d finally plucked up the courage to call her, but she hadn’t answered. She checked it out, only to find that it was her friend Noah, telling her to come to her dorm room. Riley cursed herself for being so stupid. What boy would want to call her or text her? What boy would ever want her? Noah seemed to be the only person in the world who wanted Riley around, so why would any boy call her? Riley rose to her feet, and slowly walked in the direction of Noah’s dorm, completely lost in thought. She eventually arrived at the door to her friend’s dorm, and knocked twice. Hearing a shout from within the room, Riley opened the door slowly and entered a room that should have been familiar to her: But it wasn’t. The room looked pretty much bare. Riley walked over to Noah’s bed and saw a suitcase lying open on it. ”Err… going somewhere Noah?” Riley questioned, watching the girl look at two dresses. It was hard for Riley not to notice Noah’s hair or her eyes or even her hands: they always looked perfect. Riley was a little jealous of Noah for looking so perfect all of the time. Not many people could wear blue, white, green and a sort of grey-ish together, and still look hot, but Noah definitely did. Riley wished for a figure like Noah’s, for hair as perfect, teeth as white, eyes as sparkly as hers. She wished for those things every night, but she woke up still the same old boring Riley she had always been. Some people had it all, and some people had nothing: Riley definitely fell into the second category, and she honestly believed that with all her heart. There were some people who say that sort of thing for attention, which Riley did not understand at all, but Riley honestly and truly believed that she was as ugly as Golem from Lord of the Rings. That’s what she saw when she looked in the mirror. And what she saw now was her best friend packing. She didn’t even know why, she just knew her best friend was about to leave her. She didn’t know how long for, or even if she was going to come back.

Placing the first dress in front of her and then placing the second dress whilst saying. “Which looks better?” Noah needed to know which one looked nicer. She looked at the grey dress before walking over to her wardrobe and taking out a cropped leather jacket and placing it next to the grey dress. She only had clothes like this from saving all the money she owned. The grey dress was probably the most expensive one she owned. Noah inspected the outfit before looking at her best friend. “Yeah, that’s why I called you” Noah smiled. “Julian went to California and he didn’t know I would be staying at the school, so when I told him I was still here he said that I should go to Cali and stay with him. Honestly I didn’t want to go. But he said that if I didn’t go then he would come back here and I couldn’t ruin his holiday. So he booked the plane tickets and I’ll be back at the end of the holidays” Noah took a breath after the sentence. She had to stop rushing around for a second and sit on Julian’s bed. She hadn’t eaten really since Julian had left. Yes she had the odd small meal but she couldn’t take eating food recently. She started feeling light headed again and much more tired. She hadn’t actually left the dorm much so no one could notice. It just added that nobody cared enough to notice. Noah had started weighing and measuring every morning again like she had before, she was writing her results down in a small note pad she kept hidden. That was the real reason she didn’t want to go to Cali. Julian would be there 24/7 so she would have to eat. She would have to start being sneaky again. She was fine though. Nothing was wrong with her; she just needed to lose a bit of weight. Standing up Noah walked over to her bag taking out a bottle of water. She kept two with her at all times so she didn’t get dehydrated from not eating, if that happened then she would faint and everyone would see that something was wrong. Noah drank half of the bottle before dropping it on her bed and scratching her neck. Her hair was tied up and Noah could feel her spine under the skin of her body. Taking away her hand she started to occupy her hands, there was already scratches on her ribs that Julian would now see and she would have to make excuses for. She couldn’t add to the suspicion.

Riley could not believe how calm Noah was being about this. She was leaving and she seemed, apart from the stress and hurry she looked like she was in, perfectly fine about it. ”The second one is much nicer. Wait, you’re, you’re leaving me? On the Christmas holidays? I'm gonna be spending the holidays……alone?” Riley didn’t understand. She knew about Julian and, as much as she hated him, Noah had told her that Riley was more important, and that she would never blow her off for him. Well here she was now, blowing Riley off. Riley would be alone for the holidays; she had no family, no friends, no-one. Noah was leaving her alone. Christmas-time was the saddest time of the year for Riley, Christmas, and Noah was the one person that Riley had hoped could’ve made it happy and fun. But now, Riley was going to be alone. Again.”I have no-one. No-one. I'm gonna be spending Christmas on my own: No family, no friends, no presents, just me, alone in my dorm….Great. Fucking awesome. Happy fucking holidays!” Riley sat on the floor with her back to Noah, tears pricking at her eyes. The only person she trusted was leaving her, for a guy no less. Riley knew that she was over-reacting a little, but Noah didn’t seem to even care about the fact that Riley had no-one else. Riley blinked, and the tears ran down her face and into her mouth, Riley knew that this was important to Noah, and to Julian, but she couldn’t believe that Noah hadn’t even seemed to have given Riley a second thought in this. Noah didn’t seem to have thought at all about the pain and loneliness that Riley would be in when she left. Riley rolled her sleeves up, revealing several scars and marks: almost all old, but one or two were from a few days ago, when Riley had been told about Julian. She hadn’t been able to take the possibility of being replaced, and so she took out her anger on herself. That was what she should be doing now, not taking it out on Noah, taking it out on herself.
”You know what?” Riley started, staring at the scars that covered her arms and wrists, ”I don’t even blame you. Someone like you would never want to be around someone like me anyway. I mean, look at you -You’re thin, pretty, funny, sociable- and then there's me –ugly, dark, antisocial, and ive got problems- No guy wants a girl like me. You are the type of person a guy looks at and thinks ‘omg want want want’. I'm the type of girl they don’t even bother looking at, and if by some miracle one does look at me, they just think ‘oh look, there's the emo kid with no friends and problems. Stay away, stay far away’. That’s why you will end up with someone sweet and kind like Julian, and I’ll end up dead and alone.” Riley had been happy not long ago. She had been perfectly happy sitting down where she was, thinking about stuff. To be honest, this wasn't going to be RIley's favourite christmas holidays.

She liked the second dress more anyway. Looking over what she had packed she decided that she had packed all that she needed and so she closed the bag and cleaned up the room. She stopped when she heard what Riley was saying. She was blaming herself? Noah suddenly felt guilt wash over her. She should have just told Julian that she couldn’t leave Riley. Noah knew this might be a problem but she had no choice. Riley would be just as annoyed if Julian came back because Noah would be spending all her time with him anyway. It isn’t like Noah had been spending much time with Riley over the holidays anyway, she had seen her maybe twice but other than that Noah had been in her dorm wearing one of Julian’s that were left behind and watching movies.
Noah walked over to her friend and sat beside her. “Riley, you would be much madder if I had not said yes to going to California. If I said no to him then he was going to come back here and since he’s my roommate I wouldn’t see you so much anyway” Noah looked at her best friend. She would love to say that Riley could come with her but she knew that not only would that be taking advantage of Julian’s money, Riley would spend too much time making her hate known to Julian. Noah wrapped her arm around Riley. “You’re my best friend. I will never choose anyone over you. I love you, and that is all that matters.” Noah stroked Riley’s head. “If I had to choose between you and Julian then you would always win. And that counts with anyone. I will always pick you” Noah wanted Riley to know that she wouldn’t ever leave her. No matter what happened Noah would always fight on Riley’s side.
