*Bailey's POV*

I've been stuck in this room for the whole night. I don't even understand why I'm the one getting in trouble, it was James who wanted to make that deal. Even if it was my fault, that doesn't mean that-

The sound of a knock cut my thoughts out. 

"Yes?" I asked sarcastically, not having enough energy to get up and open my locked door. 

"Dinner is ready, come downstairs." The person on the other side said. I don't know who said it, nor do I care. 

"Cool, I'm not hungry." I was not in the mood to deal with anyone at the moment. I felt like snapping at any moment.

"Cool, I didn't ask if you were hungry. I said come downstairs. You have 2 minutes and if you don't come downstairs in time, I can assure you that I'll make Tommorrow living Hell for you." Definitely Mason at my door. Tommorrow was the first day of school, but I was scared of Mason or his threats. I didn't plan on settling at the new school, my plan is simple really. Do my work, hang out with a few people, have a decent year, then go back home. Nothing too extraordinary. 

"Mason, go away."

He tried to turn the knob, but it didn't budge. He grunted in response. "Bailey, I am not kidding."

"Neither am I. Go away."

Eventually, he left, leaving me in my bare room. I should really decorate my room with the new stuff I got at the mall, but I didn't feel like getting up so I decided to continue staring at my ceiling. 

Knock, Knock

I moaned in annoyance. 

"I told you I wasn't hungry. How many times do I have to ask for you to leaving me alone?"

"Girl- Calm down, it's just me. Let me in, I need to talk to you." My twin said. 

I jumped up instantly and opened my door, my tireness leaving my body. 

"Why do you have that?" I asked looking down at her hands. In one hand was her real phone, and in the other were two dresses. "And, how did you get your phone back so quick?"

She shushes me and pushes me into my room while looking out into the hallway making sure no one is coming. "Will you be a little more quiet? Jake will have my ass if he knew I took my phone back. And, these dresses-" She looked back into the hallway one more time, "We are going to a back-to-school party on Friday. I managed to sneak these dresses at the mall. I just don't have anywhere to hide them. Jackson is constantly in my room, bugging me so I thought that I could hide them in here."

I closed the door and looked at her with wide eyes. "Are you crazy? I just got here and I already managed to get in trouble, now you want me to go to sneak out to a party with you? And I thought I was the crazy twin."

"Who said that we had to sneak out?" She asked.

"I may have not grown up with our brothers, but I know for a fact Jake and Levi would never let us go. Expiscally when we're grounded. Plus I don't know anyone from that school besides your friends."

"Okay that's true, but still. I already got us an invitation." She showed me a snapchat that was sent to here, stating the address and time. "Where is the fun Bailey? You know the Bailey that got sent here because she was too wild? We're 16, almost adults. We have to at least have a little bit of fun. Just this once, plus I won't leave your side."

She looked at me with her puppy dog eyes. She placed the dresses underneath my bed and put her phone in her pocket.

Before I was able to give her an answer, my door was pushed open. I turned around to be faced with Jackson.
