1 CHAPTER 1

Noelle POV

"I need to get some sleep," Noelle said as she crawled to his bed. She had stayed up all night playing video games. Noelle's parents had died in a horrible accident five years ago. She was left with no one except her best friend ~Jason.

"I have to wake up early tomorrow for school and go to work." She mumbled in her sleep. She worked part-time at a gaming company. Since her parents' death, she had to work to make ends meet. She was paid handsomely at her job, in return she was one of the few programmers.

She was also a college student. and it had taken its toll on her, so she played video games to ease up her pressure and anxiety.

~FLASHBACK~

I woke up around 6:00 am and had to get ready for school. I heard snoring and probably figured it was Maya. She doesn't stop snoring, does she? I lazily got up and went to brush my teeth and shower, when the cold water hit m skin I tensed up but I quickly relaxed.

"I should probably ask for a vacation from work to ease up a bit." I had been working so hard it had started to take its toll on me. I felt tired and numb most of the time but still got around with my day. And with Mikaela's constant bantering it was way worse.

She and Amaya were always bickering over the most trivial things. Like who was best in volleyball or whose grades were high. Mikaela was the best other and Amaya her grades. ~and yes Maya and Amaya are twins.

I finished and got out of the shower. Maya was still asleep even though she had the same classes as I do. I quickly wore a pair of pants, some white Adidas shoes, and a black hoodie. I wasn't the type to wear formal clothes to school. Always something baggy and comfy.

I glanced at the time it was 6:35 am. I still had time for breakfast. I sprinted to Maya's room to wake her. Seeing as class started at 7:30 am. She woke up with a jolt and bolted down the hallway to shower. I went to the kitchen for some cereal. I munched on it and decided to wait for Jason, he had a different class but at the same time.

I quickly texted him to see if he was still in his dorm. To cut it short he wasn't he had already left. Which was odd because we always left to class at the same time. But luckily he made it up to me to meet after class. HOPEFULLY.

After I finished my cereal I hurried off to class, leaving Maya behind, she leaves with Amaya anyway. They had the same class with her twin~ ironic. I reached class early, I always wanted to have some quiet time before the professor came in. I went to my desk to have some sleep before class started.

"Noelle, Noelle." I woke up to the sound of (Y/N)." Classes are about to start, and you know how he is." You said. "Oh yeah, thanks for waking me up," I said. "No problem my pleasure." (y/n) said.

Just then the professor came in. I thanked my heavens Y/N woke me up just in time, or else my ears would've been blasted off the minute he started one of his constant lectures.

Classes passed by as usual and I went to join Maya, Amaya, and Mikaela for lunch. Hopefully, Jason would be there. I went to the cafeteria and heard an annoyingly familiar voice. "HEY, Noelle over here." I walked over to where they were gathered and took a seat.

"So what's up," Amaya asked nonchalantly. "Oh nothing much just caught up with work and school you know the usual," I said in a monotonous tone.

"Let's eat I'M FAMISHED," Mikaela said, all of us surprisingly stared at her. "When did you learn good grammar," Amaya asked breaking the silence.

"You either use slang or your grammar is just awful sometimes," Maya said trying not to laugh over the times Mikaela tried to speak good grammar and failed miserably.

"I'm starting to speak good grammar because I have a presentation in front of the whole class due in the next two weeks, so I got to keep practicing to avoid embarrassing myself.

"But Mikaela you usually don't care about what other people think about you you're carefree," I said stating what all of us were trying to say.

"Yeah but the professor is going to grade me based on how I present the work and how I say it, that's why," Mikaela said sighing

"Enough with the chit-chat let's eat like I said I'm famished," Mikaela said.

We all started to eat our food in silence and Mikaela was joking around with some stuff. But what bothered me was that Jason never came.

~Timeskip to Noelle's workplace~

The day passed by as usual and it was time for me to go to work. Work started at 6:30 pm. So I grabbed dinner and went straight to work. It was 5:33 pm and I reached workaround 5:40 pm. When I reached work, I greeted my co-workers and went straight to my desk.

My boss had a new game idea so we started programming it, and I gotta admit it was pretty cool. I finished around 10:00 pm and went straight to my dorm. When I reached my dorm the first thing that greeted me was Maya's loud snoring and the TV still on.

I decided to clean the kitchen and living space since Maya had completely wrecked the place there were dishes in the sink and her papers scattered all over the table, it took me no longer than 30 minutes to finish because I had gotten used to Maya's messy behavior.

I went straight to the bathroom brushed my teeth and freshened up a bit. After my shower, I decided to test out our new game, and it was pretty good if I do say so myself.

I then drifted off to sleep with Jason hovering over my thoughts.
