Description

Name: “You might want to remember this for tomorrow morning when you wake up in my bed…” Bradley Ryan Hale

Nickname: “Just don’t call me Brad.” None. He doesn’t mind nicknames as such but the only real shortening of his name is ‘Brad’, which he doesn’t much like. But, if you can come up with a better one for him he’ll be sure to consider it.

Age: 20 (Junior)

Major: “Partying and Girls.” Business

Sexuality: Straight

House: “Do I look like a Kappa?” Sigma Chi Delta

Thoughts on being a Sigma: “Sigma should’ve been my middle name. It’s just partying, girls and more partying. I get to be in a house with guys like me; we get each other and watch each other’s backs. What’s not to like?”

Likes:

+ Partying
+ Girls
+ Danger
+ Sex
+ Being a Sigma
+ The dark
+ Drinking
+ Freedom
+ LA

Dislikes:

- Rules
- Having to actually do any work
- The idea of family
- Oregon
- Being told what to do
- His step-father
- Police

Fears: “Scared? Sigma’s don’t know the meaning of the word ‘scared’.”

- Something happening to his sisters
- Turning into his father

Personality: “I’m a Sigma, take a wild guess.”

Bradley is a party boy through and through. As a Sigma, he already has a reputation for his bad boy antics, but Bradley is determined to make sure his reputation precedes him wherever he goes. He likes to hold the classic Sigma image; partying all night, ignoring the rules and taking home a new girl each evening.

He’s stubborn and won’t take no for an answer. If he wants something, he’ll go after it like nothing else matters. He also loves the feeling of defying the rules. For as long as Bradley can remember, rules have never been his thing; he sees them as boundaries that must be broken. Whatever else could they be for?

He likes to think he’s fearless and will do anything for a good time. He’ll never turn down a dare, no matter the stakes. He’s an adrenaline junkie and loves the rush he gets from doing something dangerous. He’s normally quite calm about things and it’s pretty hard to make him mad. But, he’s not scared of a fight and he has a few sticking points that, if you touch upon, are certain to land you in trouble with Bradley.

History: “Come back to mine and we’ll talk about it…”

Bradley was born in Santa Monica, Los Angeles to Leroy and Katherine Hale. Leroy was businessman, and devoted to his job. His wife, Katherine, was a journalist. When Bradley was four, his younger sister, Hannah was born. And two years after that, his youngest sister, Megan, came along. Up until that point his family had been happy. Bradley had known nothing but normality. But two years after his youngest sister was born, when Bradley was eight, his mother left, totally unexpectedly, with a colleague of his father’s. They never saw her again.

After that, everything changed. Almost overnight, Bradley’s father wanted nothing to do with his children. He employed someone to look after them. He made certain they were in bed before he got home and he’d left for work before they woke up. He lived in a separate part of the house from them and tried his hardest to hardly see them. As Bradley grew up, he barely knew either of his parents and no one cared what he did. He developed a fascination with parties and avoiding coming home, the way his father did. He became uncontrollable by the paid help and they simply gave up trying to keep him in order. Besides, his father didn’t particularly care that he wasn’t home.

When Bradley was sixteen, his father was arrested and found guilty running high end, illegal establishments. He was sentenced and Bradley and his two sisters found themselves back in the custody of his mother, living in Oregon with her new husband and ten year old daughter, Luciana. His step-father was strict and tried to force Bradley into quitting the partying lifestyle he had had for so long. But Bradley wasn’t changing his mind. He started bringing his grades up in school, desperate to get out of the house and away from his family. He got a place at Fulton and decided to major in business, just like his father. Even though turning out like his father was the last thing Bradley wanted, he knew giving his mother any idea that he might would make her worried and his step-father angry. It was his final way of saying ‘Fuck you’ to a family that had failed him.

So begins...

Natalie sat up in her bed and lifted her white iPhone, swaddled in its pink polka-dot case, from the night stand, her reflex action when she awoke. Pulling the covers up around her bare shoulders for warmth, she flicked through the texts, emails and social networking alerts she'd received while she'd been asleep. Her notifications bar was always crammed with messages in the morning. But what did she expect? She was a popular girl, everyone wanted something from her.

When she was finally finished dealing with those she felt were worthy of her attention at all, she slipped out from under the covers. She made her bed up perfectly again, tucking her throw over the end of the bed and arranging the cushions artistically around her pillow. Being president, she had the biggest room in the dorm, right at the end of the corridor behind the back wall. The room was quiet tidy, but Natalie resisted the urge to make it spotless, knowing a Freshman should be in later to tidy it for her and clean. Natalie slid her pyjamas off her slim body and stepped into the shower. The warm water rushed refreshingly over her body and she inhaled deeply, the steam filling her lungs calmingly. Her hair was washed and conditioned with plenty of other product washed in and out to improve it's shine, volume, condition and any other possible quality she would want for her long, blonde hair.

When she'd finished in the shower, she stepped out in a cloud of scented steam and swaddled herself in a fluffy white towel that had been warming on the heated towel rail while she showered. She dried her hair and styled it meticulously before selected a bra and panties set from her draw, matching, of course. Then she stood in front of her full length mirror, inspecting herself. She pressed a hand against her concave stomach where a dull ache resonated. But the ache comforted her, it meant she was hungry, and that mean she was perfect. She scrutinized her appearance and weighed herself, making sure she wasn't putting on any weight.

Natalie turned her attention to her cell as it buzzed softly on her bed where she'd left it. She quickly opened the text, reading the words with a smile, reminding herself more of how valuable Annie really was to her. She quickly typed a short reply:

Caffe Americano. No milk, no sugar x

She knew for a fact that a Starbucks Caffe Americano contained five point seven calories and no fat what so ever. It was one of the few beverages that she allowed herself from Starbucks, and she mentally prepared her cutting remarks for any member of her house who'd ordered a drink from Annie that contained any more than ten calories.

Natalie put on the outfit she'd tirelessly perfected the night before and applied her make-up until she was certain it was just perfect. She then swept her things she needed for the day into her bag and, with one final check of her appearance, she left her dorm room.

Bradley turned over, eyes still closed, and flung his arm so it collided with the squealing alarm clock on his bedside table. The offending objected hurtled across the room at the impact and the irritating sound died a death of silence as it bounced onto the floor. Bradley groaned and stumbled out of bed, heading straight for his mini-fridge with a hand pressed against his head. He lifted a can of red bull from the fridge and cracked it open. He took two large gulps before pulling a packet of Advil down from the cupboard. He popped two of the translucent blue pills into his hands and swallowed them with another long drink of red bull. He drained the can, crushed it in his hands and abandoned it on the floor.

With that, Bradley dragged himself into the shower and turned it on. The cold water blasted down on him, finally shocking him out of his hangover-addled state. He gradually warmed the water up and washed. His head still pounded as the water slammed down onto it and Bradley combed through his memory, dragging back details of the night before. They'd had a big blow-out in the Sigma dorm to christen the new semester and welcome everyone back for the year. It had been a pretty good party, even by Sigma standards, that much Bradley remembered. Other than that, it had just been a lot of alcohol and music, and more alcohol. He also distantly remembered a girl, a Zelta he thought, although he couldn't quite be sure who, leaving his bed at five o'clock this morning, flashing him a quick smile and a wave before Bradley had dropped back into the depths of sleep.

He dried himself off and pulled on the only clean clothes he could find in his closet, the rest being either strewn either across the floor of his room or stuck in a washing machine in the laundry room, because he'd managed to get them in there and wash them, but he couldn't quite figure out the machine enough to get them out again... So he'd left a sign on the little plastic door of it, hoping a Theta might retrieve them and bring them back to him. And if they didn't come back, he smirked to himself, he knew there was obviously some poor, lonely girl out there in this university, wearing them to bed at night and imagining it was him. That was just the effect he had on women, after all.

He made his way towards the auditorium, distantly remembering something about supposedly having to turn up there that morning. He stopped quickly for a Starbucks black coffee, hopping it might lift the alcoholic-haze from his mind.

"Ladies," he flashed Sophie and Annie a smile as he passed them before continuing on to the auditorium. When he arrived, it was already beginning to fill up. He spotted Finn at the back, a young Kappa he was trying to help out. He had a few issues with the women, which, luckily for him, happened to be Bradley's area of expertise. He was stood with Jane, a sweet but boring, if he was being honest, Theta, and Maya. Ah, Maya. Now there was an interesting one.

He strolled over. "Alright, Finn?" he said, giving him a friendly nod. "Jane," he acknowledged the other girl before slipping through the space between Finn and Jane to go and lean against the wall right beside Maya.

"Maya," he gave her one of his slow, lazy smiles and met her eyes with his own chocolate ones. He was clearly flirting with her. Getting her to blush would certainly brighten his, until now, fairly painful day.

Looking around, Maya looked for someone to talk to before seeing one of her best friends, Finn. She saw him waved and smile at her as she did the same, waving back at him and smiling with her white teeth being revealed. "Hey! How's it going?" She gave him a quick hug before returning back to her spot on the wall and answering him. "Good. Happy to be back from home, seeing that I had to work my ass off most of the summer at my cousin's restaurant. I bet I still smell like Pico de Gallo." She said in sarcasm with a raised eyebrow.

She looked at Finn until hearing a familiar voice that she knew from her freshmen year last year, her friend Jane. "Uh, hi," She smiled at her and gave a slight wave. The two of them were rather close in their sorority, Jane was just such a nice girl who would suck it up when people messed with her but, Maya never let anyone really get away with messing with her friends, she cared too much for them to just let it happen. Yea, it may not have been her business but, no one ever objected to her sticking up with or for them. "Awesome shirt." She heard Jane say the Finn about his Doctor Who shirt. She had watched it with Finn a couple time and she liked it but, it just wasn't her favorite television show to watch.

"Alright, Finn?" Crap. Just who she wanted to see in the morning. The one guy on campus who knew exactly how to make her grin or at least smirk early in the morning other than Finn. Maybe he'll just keep walking. "Jane," Great." She said in her head as she saw Bradley Hale slip his way through her two rather sweet and quiet friends and lean on the wall right next to. She did not need this right now, already this week she saw his clothes in the laundry room as if he expected someone to wash them for him, flirted with her more than she really could count, and well, was being more... himself than he had been. Maybe it's because of the Summer. Who knows? But, not to say she didn't maybe "flirt" back a little, she couldn't help it. She enjoyed teasing him.

She sighed and rolled her eyes as he spoke her name with a flirty smile on his face, looking at her light brown eyes with his dark ones. She looked up at him and gave him a slight grin. She could feel her cheeks turn a very, very slight shade of rose as he looked at her. "Bradley, It is nice to see you haven't forgotten about me over the summer. I would have been devastated." She said with a raised eyebrow and a smirk. "Another thing, you have Sigma and Alpha friends, right? So why talk to us little Thetas and Kappa?" She said with a small pout on her face.

Edric groaned in his bed, his head was pounding and he honestly felt like at any moment it was going to explode. But, it wasn't fully his fault, he told Tony that he could handle himself no matter how many drinks he would have. For the most part it was true, but the problem he had about it was the hangover afterwards. Always was. And, he couldn't help but chuckle at the thought of his father ever catching him like this. His father would pull him out of America so quickly that he would have a chance to even blink.

After a moment, the young Asian man sat up in his bed and reached above his head, letting out a loud yawn. "God, I don't want to get up." He said to himself as he stood up and got change into a blue pair of jeans and a plain black tee shirt. He looked himself in the mirror, fixing his newly dyed black hair from its limp normal form into its rather spiked up way with his gel. He smiled at himself in the mirror before walking across the hall to his close friend and older brother's room, Tony. "Yo, Tony. Get your lazy ass because I am not your alarm clock. I am not made in China and I should wake a grown man up." He said as he banged on the door.

He sighed before rolling his eyes and shrugging. "Alright, hell." He said to himself before walking into the restroom and taking a few Advil's and drinking some water from the sink. Edric sighed in relief, hoping it would start to work soon. He walked out of the restroom and out of the house, heading towards where he knew his sister would be, knowing that is where his sister would be. He saw Sophie and her friend Annie before he walked up behind her and put his head on top of hers seeing she was 5'5 and he was 6'0. "achim chin-aehaneun dongsaeng-eul joh-a." (Good Morning, my dear sister) He said in Korean to say good morning to his dear "little" sister. He looked at Annie and winked before smiling. "Annie, looking as beautiful as ever." He knew that Natalie didn't like Sigmas flirting with her Alphas, which made it all the more fun. nae meoli Edric nwajwo. geuligo , nae chingu lang jangnan haneunge anibnida. (Get off of my head, Edric. And, do not flirt with my friend.) His sister said to him before moving his head. He chuckled before looking back at Annie who was probably wondering what the Hell they were saying.

Looking at his sister, he could tell she wanted him to leave. Which made it all the fun.

Natalie didn't stop walking when she saw Karma. She just continued, expecting the girl to fall into step along side her. Natalie waited for no one.

She flashed Karma the briefest of smiles. "What do you think happened to me over the Summer? Of course I'm looking forward to it," Natalie smirked, continuing. "Little girls, all signing up to be tortured, all so they can be just like me? What could be better?"

Natalie felt her phone vibrate in her bag and she quickly picked it up, opening a message from Annie. Her eyes flicked across the words as she took it in. For Natalie, today was all about creating an image of the Alphas for those that were rushing. Although the girls were already infamous throughout many schools and universities in the area, Natalie still needed this. She wanted to enter the auditorium, flanked by the Alphas. They needed to present a united front, a tight-knit group of impeccably dressed, perfectly turned out, ethereally lovely girls. People had to see them and want more than anything to be a part of it. The girls who wanted it the most were always the ones who were most fun to play with in rush week.

Starbucks. Karma's with me, find Sophie and meet us both there x

Natalie sent back. They'd reached the end of the corridor and she stopped, pressing the button on the elevator to call it.

"You better have some good ideas for hazing. I'm planning this year to be worse than all the others combined..." Natalie smiled sweetly at Karma. She knew the girl didn't like the hazing, but it was practically Natalie's favourite event of the whole year, and she wasn't toning it down for anyone. Girls had to know that if they wanted to be Alphas, they had to work for it.

Bradley chucked softly as a blush rose in the girl's cheeks and he smirked. His day was looking up already.

She did look slightly irked with him, but Bradley was not giving up. If that blush was anything to go by, there had to be some potential there. He just had to persuade of that.... But, if Bradley couldn't do it, no one could. He laughed inwardly at her pout, contemplating the perfect comeback to wipe the pout of her face.

"Oh Maya," Bradley told her softly, a cheeky grin on his face, getting closer to her so she could almost feel his warm breath on her cheek, as if he were about to tell her some kind of big, private secret. "Why talk to them when there's someone as beautiful as you over here?"

He drew back from her and turned to the other two, "Besides, it's always the quiet ones... They're always the naughtiest," Bradley smirked, clearly joking. He glanced back at the Mexican girl, "Right, Maya?" he teased, his eyes twinkling.

Maya greets Finn with a quick hug and a response to his question about how she was doing, explaining that she had spent the summer apparently working at a restaurant owned by her cousins. He can remember her mentioning something about that before the previous semester had ended, but hadn't really thought about the fact that she'd be working all summer when he himself was working (well, more interning) at a dance company over the summer. From his perspective, he probably had a lot more enjoyable a time during his break, something which made him feel inexplicably guilty. Finn is the sort who tends to sympathize with people a bit too much, often leading to him feeling guilty for being happy when someone else isn't. Still, he knows that Maya loves her family very dearly, and so it was probably a lot happier a summer than she is making it out to be. Thus, he only smiles at her response before hearing a familiar, low-volume voice and turning around to face the girl with the curly red hair who addresses them; Jane. When the young woman, a Theta who is rather shy, compliments him on his Doctor Who shirt, Finn cannot help but break out into a wide, happy grin, as is his nature when anyone mentions or shows any fondness for one of his personal obsessions. "TARDIS shirts are cool," he quips cheerfully, his smile still optimistic and boyish, revealing slight dimples that only enhance this image.

At that moment, Bradley Hale walks over, greeting Finn with a nod and an, "Alright, Finn?" before moving on to acknowledge Jane and then end up slipping between the pair to lean next to Maya, whom he aims a lazy smile at, positioned in such a way that obviously means he is going to flirt with her. Finn had nodded back towards Bradley, the Sigma who had decided to take him under his wing and help him with the more social aspects of college, but when the guy had advanced on to Maya, he looks away. Expressions clearly revealed on his face, the boy looks a little bit like a kicked puppy, because he absolutely hates to watch Bradley flirt with Maya- and it doesn't help that she tends to flirt back, though Finn knows that she means nothing by it (or hopes that she doesn't). Not wanting to listen to the back and forth between the two, he turns and faces Jane with a large smile meant to hide his emotions. "So, Jane, how was your summer? Do anything fun?" He asks cheerfully, genuine in his interest towards her activities (as he is always rather genuine), despite using her to distract himself from the pair who flirt behind him. Bradley then turns back towards them and makes a comment about the quietest people being the naughtiest. When he glances towards Maya and comments at her specifically, Finn can't help but blush awkwardly, not being the greatest in these situations. He can't flirt without blushing madly, most of the time, and it doesn't help that he dislikes even attempting to flirt if he isn't sincerely interested in the girl.

"So, how was your summer, Bradley?" He asks anxiously, keeping up the smile though it has fallen to be somewhat lopsided, clearly desperate to change the subject.

The Korean girl looked at Mario as he greeted her and waved. They weren't best friends, or really friends at all. They had a mutual friend between them, Annie. Sophie looked at Annie when she answered her brother with a, "Hello Edric. This is a pleasant surprise." As she watched Annie give her signature smile to her brother. Ugh, how anyone could sleep or even flirt with Edric was a mystery to her. It could have been that he was her identical twin and when he flirted with girls she was friends with... It was just very awkward to watch. She heard Mario repeat, "Very pleasant.",as he looked at Edric and then back at his best friend. "Yea, well. I just wanted to see if my beautiful sister had the money she owned me. But, it never kills me to see a few Alphas and Betas on the way."

She could hear the very undetectable sarcasm in his voice. She and he had the same exact way of being sarcastic that never really worked at home but here? Wow, they could really get away with it whenever they wanted to. She rolled her eyes and looked in her new nude color Louis Vuitton purse for the ten dollars she owned her brother for not telling their father that she actually was flirting with, in their father's words, "Idiot American boys." Her brother had a smirk on his face before losing it with Brandon started to flirt with her. "Ae-Jin, My lovely Korean Queen, How are you this fine day?" She couldn't hide the bright but, small smile on her face. And when he lightly touched her face she couldn't think straight for a moment. That rarely happened but, she couldn't think of anything smart to say to him. God, Brandon was... something else to her. And, how he never called her Sophie really made her become even more attracted to the blonde boy.

She knew that Annie like him or at least felt something for him but, he could have said anything to either of them and he chose her. And, as much as she adored Annie. She wanted something to happen between Brandon and herself. So, she made her decision. "I-I'll see you guys later. Annie, can you tell Nate that I needed to get something from the house. Thank you." She said to her friend with a smile before looking at her brother and hitting his arm. "Do not start something, Jiyong." She said in all serious before seeing her brother roll his eyes and walk away from the group, probably looking for his friends. Walking away, her small smile return as she started to catch up with Brandon. She tapped his shoulder and raised her eyebrow. "So what? You call me your 'Korean queen' and just walk away?" She said in obvious sarcasm before chuckling and looking back at him. "My day is going along astonishing . And, Brandon, how is my flirtatious American king?" She said with a slight smirk curbing on the right side of her mouth. Just because Natalie said they couldn't sleep with Sigmas. But... flirting isn't sleeping with so, technically, she's not in the wrong... Right?

Maya looked up at the much taller Sigma with a smirk before he whispered in her ear, "Oh Maya, Why talk to them when there's someone as beautiful as you over here?" She could feel his breath on her cheek as he whispered to her. She chuckled a bit as he back up. She liked to be called beautiful, even if it was from Bradley and he was just flirting with her... like always. It always made her smile, even against her will. She looked at two rather quiet friends talk to each other before Bradley of course had to bring the two of them into their conversation. God, she felt bad for the two of them. They both were rather innocent or at least looked innocent.

And, every time they were around Bradley and Maya. She felt like they were ripping that quiet and innocent person out of them. At least she joked about it. "Besides, it's always the quiet ones... They're always the naughtiest," She could her the joking in his voice and it made her bite her lip to stop her from laughing. He of all people would know. "Right, Maya?"She looked back at him, seeing him looking at her with those damn eyes. God, those eyes were the one thing that she noticed when they first met. And, he had used them against her ever since. "Your day isn't compete until you bug me, is it Bradley?" She said with her accent dripping in sarcasm with a smile on her face and an eyebrow raised at him.

"So, how was your summer, Bradley?" She heard Finn say, trying to change the subject. She was kind of grateful for her best friend for changing the subject. She gave him a sweet smile before hearing her favorite ringtone for her best friend, Ama go off. Looking at the text she just started to repeat the lyrics of Titanium in her head, remembering that she had to finish that remix. She was about to put her new cherry red phone away in her cream colored massager bag before hearing her phone go off yet again only this time it was ring as the song, Stole My Heart by One Direction. She sighed and looed at Bradley and then Finn. "Do not judge me." Was all she said before reading the text and groaned. Great, the Alphas were at it already. She quickly texted Belle back before putting phone away.

Jane and I are already in the auditorium. And, great. Just what I wanted... No offence. XD

Looking back up, Maya looked at her red headed friend and shrugged. "We have to get to your fearless leader. I'll see you later, Finn." She said giving him a hug and letting him go. She tapped Jane on the shoulder. "Come when you're done talking to my bestest friend ever. I'll let Ama know."She said sweetly before walking towards the door and opening on of the large wooden doors. She stopped and looked at the Sigma still leaning on the wall. "Bye, Bradley." She said with a smirk on her face before having the Miami sunlight hit her face as she headed to the Theta house.

The elevator arrived and Natalie stepped in with Karma. The doors closed behind them and it slowly dropped to the bottom of the shaft as Karma spoke.

"Yeah, don't even worry. I'm pretty much planning to go Hunger Games on the pledges and have them all kill each other with lip gloss and designer bags."

Natalie couldn't help but smile, cracking her icy exterior. She did genuinely like Karma, for all her faults. And, though she was never particularly nice to the girl, she did like to see her.

"Perfect," Natalie smiled as they exited the elevator. The Alpha house was on three levels. The first floor was the house part, the living room, kitchen and where the girls spent time together. The second floor was the smaller bedrooms of the newer, lower-ranked Alpha's. Alpha's on this floor also shared with one or two other members The third floor was for the people Natalie was closest to in the house. Most got their own rooms with en suite bathrooms instead of having to share a communal one likes the girls on the second floor. Natalie's bedroom being the largest and by far the nicest at the very end of the corridor.

The girls exited the house. Natalie didn't wait for Karma anywhere, just expecting the girl to follow her. They began the walk to campus. Alpha's, being one of the highest ranking houses in the whole system had their dorms closest to campus and so didn't have to drive. From their house to the college was only a short minute or two walk.

Natalie lifted her phone from her bag, opening a text from Annie. Annie was such a useful little sister to have, and so loyal. She constantly kept Natalie up to date and informed on the other Alpha's. Without Annie, Natalie's job would be much harder. But the words she read in the text were not quite so pleasing. Sophie knew there was a strict no sleeping with Sigma's rule, and Natalie did not like to be disobeyed. When will that little bitch learn to be an Alpha she has to fall in line? Natalie thought to herself, fully intending not to let this one slip when she saw Sophie.

"So, do you want to get lunch later today? I'm thinking Mexican," Natalie turned her attention back towards Karma at the sound of her voice.

Natalie thought for a second. As long as they went to the smaller Mexican restaurant just off campus rather than Taco Bell, she wouldn't actually have to eat anything and could just pick over a salad. And she could take great pleasure in giving Karma sideways looks whenever she ate anything and making saccharine sweet, sarcastic remarks about all that greasy food making her fatter than she already was, which made Natalie feel better about herself and always improved her day.

"Sure. We can go over plans for hazing at lunch," Natalie said. The girls reached campus and Natalie made her way straight for Starbucks, fully intending to rectify Sophie's indiscretions.

She saw Annie stood by Starbucks, ordering Natalie's drink - she hoped, for Annie's sake. But instead of going to meet her 'Little Sister', Natalie headed straight for where she saw Sophie, walking off with Brandon Duett, a Sigma Natalie particularly didn't approve of.

"No, Natalie wouldn't approve, Brandon," the blonde said harshly, stepping into their paths to halt them in their tracks. She placed a hand on her hip, expression cold and voice icy as she turned her attention to Sophie. "Sophie, don't you have somewhere else you should be, rather than hanging out with this low-life?" Her tone of voice could freeze the fires of hell and anyone would be stupid to even attempt to fight back. There was a no-nonsense air to her words, along with the overwhelming feeling that anyone who attempted to defy her would be in serious trouble.

Bradley couldn't be more pleased with her reaction. The light blush and obvious attempt not to laugh only added to Bradley's triumphant feeling. He knew he'd got out of bed this morning for something, and now this conversation really was shaping up to be a fairly satisfying one. Who knew, maybe by the end of the semester Bradley may have finally persuaded Maya to bring her beautiful, naked body into his bed? Now that would certainly be an achievement.

"Your day isn't compete until you bug me, is it Bradley?" Maya said.

Bradley smirked, placing a hand to his chest dramatically. "You see right into my soul, Maya. Maybe you'd like to see the inside of my bed too?" he asked her, his tone of voice changing quickly to become suggestive and flirtatious once more.

Bradley's attention turned back to the previously forgotten Finn as he piped up awkwardly, "So, how was your summer, Bradley?"

Bradley noticed the redness in Finn's cheeks and his awkward expression. He chuckled inwardly. Finn was clearly finding this whole situation particularly uncomfortable. Bradley made a mental note for when he showed Finn how to flirt to tell him getting over his uncomfortableness surrounding these situations was the first step in jumping out of the friendzone straight into the fuckzone.

Bradley grinned, turning his attention away from Maya for the moment. "It was great," Bradley told him honestly in a friendly tone, casting his mind back over summer. The memories were coloured by girls, alcohol and more girls. "Went to Barbados with some guys. You would not believe the girls in Barbados! You've got to go. This one girl she had the biggest-"

Bradley was cut of by the sound of Maya's phone as a pop-tune by a certain band Bradley liked to call 'One Erection' filled the space between them.

"Do not judge me," Maya told the boys deadpan, as the words:'...and you stole my heart, with just one look...' floated from the speaker.

Bradley smirked again. "I'm not. Even your cell knows how you feel about me," he told her cheekily, in reference to the lyrics just sung.

Bradley felt his own cell buzz in his pocket and he lifted it out as Maya excused herself, saying goodbye to Finn and Jane. He opened the text from Brandon, laughing to himself before slipping the phone back into his pocket. As he looked up, Maya glanced back to look at Bradley. "Bye, Bradley."

Bradley used his thumb and pinkie to create a phone and lifted it to his ear in a mock 'call me' gesture, giving her a smug, triumphant smile.

❝ Jane Fisher ❞

"TARDIS shirts are cool."

Jane couldn't help but nod in agreement. Now that she thinks about it, she should have a Doctor Who marathon as well. She would write it in her notebook to remember but she didn't want to look like a dork in front of Maya or Finn.

"Alright, Finn?" A voice cut in and the group of three became a group of four. Jane recognized Bradley immidiately. Although she wasn't sociable, her memory was great and after being in Fulton for a few years now, she knew of a lot people, especially in the Greek system. "Jane," he added, causing a slight warmth to reach her cheek. She easily got embarrassed when it came to guys and now she couldn't get over the fact that he even acknowledged her. Most of her impression of him has been someone who parties and flirts a lot but he might actually be a nice guy.

Bradley slipped in between Finn and Maya, already with the intention of flirting. Jane averted her gaze quickly, uncomfortable with the situation. In the process she noticed Finn look away as well with a strange expression in his face. The girl blinked a couple of times, wondering what exactly what causing him to make such pained expression. She wanted to ask but she kept back the words. It wasn't her place to be concerned, right? Right.

"So, Jane, how was your summer? Do anything fun?"

A bit caught of guard with the sudden attention thrown her way, Jane found herself picking at her brain for anything to say. She couldn't exactly say she had wasted her time watching TV shows that she had already watched many times before, playing video games, reading, and on the internet the entire time with a proud smile on her face. All she could do was give an awkward nod and said, "I-It was okay. I had fun." That didn't sound so lame. She did have fun, even if it was in a rather uncool way.

Bradley then made a comment about the quietest people being the naughtiest and Jane couldn't help but notice that the color of Finn's face had changed. Once again, she had to hold back on asking about it.

"So, how was your summer, Bradley?" Finn asked. His tone was a bit strained. It was strange to how usually Finn was. Jane wasn't all too close to him but it didn't mean she didn't observe and what she was seeing was a bit too unfamiliar for her to understand.

Jane then noticed a vibration on her side and at the same time heard Maya's ringtone. She immediately recognized it and her heart practically skipped a beat as she quickly dug for her cell phone in her bag. Once she got it, a smile appeared on her face when she found she had been right. It was a text from Amaranta telling them to meet her at the Theta House before the auditorium (crap) and for Jane to get her an order from Starbucks. A smile adorned her face a the nickname and before she could even put her phone up, another message came in and, again, Maya's ringtone rang right on cue as well. This time it was from Belle asking where they were and warning about the Alphas.

"We have to get to your fearless leader," Maya said over to Jane who smiled at the mention of Amaranta. "I'll see you later, Finn," she added and gave a hug to the boy before tapping Jane on the shoulder. "Come when you're done talking to my bestest friend ever. I'll let Ama know."

"Ah, yeah," Jane said and nodded at her. With a final goodbye for Bradley, Maya set of the Theta house. Jane turned to the two guys that were left and opened her mouth to say excuse herself but couldn't find the right words so quickly. "Um, I... have to go too," she mumbled after an awkward pause and quickly shuffled out of the auditorium to head over to Starbucks.

❝ Antonio Ramos ❞

When Tony woke up, he was hit with a wave of pain that could only be due to hangovers. As he rolled on his back, he ran a hand through his messy locks that were all over the place. It took him a few moments to recollect himself. Last night had been the start of another year in Fulton and all Tony could say was that it started out with a really, really good start. He could only hope it would continue like that for the entire year, or at least get better. His eyes then spotted some black panties hanging from the tip of his dresser. He couldn't help but smile a bit at the sight of them. Now, he wanted to see if it could even get any better.

Groaning, Tony looked over at his alarm clock that rested right besides him. That old thing had stopped working a long time ago. It wasn't like it worked anyway since Tony was such a heavy sleeper. The only reason he kept it was to know the time. "Damn it, the auditorium crap," Tony muttered and sat up from his comfortable position in his bed. His movement caused his headache to worsen and it forced Tony to stop moving for a moment. After it calmed down a bit, he resumed moving, this time a bit slower though. He needed to remember to get Edric for not waking him up. He probably wanted to get there before him so he could check out the freshman this year. Oh, Tony would get him for that. It wasn't like Tony had much of an interest for freshman, though, and it was mostly out of fun. They were a bit too young, childish per say, for his taste. There are few exceptions though.

Tony made his way out of his room and paused for a moment in the middle of the hallway. His eyebrows scrunched up together a bit as he tried to decide if he should try to find something to eat or shower first. Deciding his hunger wasn't so bad, he headed to the bathroom. Actually, it was Edric had left already or else he would be snapping at Tony to put some cloths on. A yawn escaped Tony as he turned on the shower and stepped in once it started. The water felt good falling on his head, causing his untamed hair to get drenched and stick to Tony's head. With a sigh of relief, Tony took his time showering. Even if he did arrive late to the auditorium, Tony wasn't the type to put much mind into that. His laziness exceeded his ability to give a crap.

After around ten minutes, Tony finished his shower and had finally dressed himself. He had been searching for something to eat but the only things he had come across were opened bags of food and after last night, Tony wasn't sure they were edible anymore. Before he could even realize what he was doing, Tony had a beer at his hand and was about to open it when his cellphone rang. It was a normal ringtone, one that already came installed in the phone. Tony couldn't bother with personalizing it. His head screamed at the sudden sound that seemed to be a thousand times louder than it really was. He made his way back to his room and began to search for it in the dump that was his room. It took him about five good minutes to find it wrapped up in a pair of pants that had been kicked under his bed. He sat on his bed and ran his hand again through his hair, hopefully trying to keep it down and in place as he read the message he had received. It was from Annie, surprisingly. Sure, Tony flirted with her whenever he saw her, just like did with any other girl, but he never really expected anything seeing as she stuck to Natalie's every word - and, of course, everyone knew that Natalie was very strict on keeping her precious Alphas from the Sigmas.

Tony's lips quirked upwards once he read the message. Was momma Natalie loosening her reigns? Or was it just that one of her followers finally decided she had her own will? Whatever the reason it might be, Tony knew a perfect chance when he was one and he was more than ready to take it — and so he replied.

Just say when and where.

Finn responds to Maya's smile with one of his own, albeit a slightly awkward one. Unless he is laughing about something, the Kappa's smiles do tend to always come off as dorky, even if they are completely normal ones. Maybe it is just his face or his constantly rather boyish personality, but everything he does seems to ooze the essence of awkward geek. The exception being his dancing, of course- there are girls in his dance classes who have 'dance crushes' on him. Dance crushes are not necessarily actual romantic interests, but being attracted to someone's style or talent when it comes to dancing. Of course, by the time he's stopped moving the normal personality has returned, and any sort of attraction seems to vanish as they view him as a goofy and probably gay classmate. The eternal torture of the young man. And of course, the person who no one would ever think of for a second of friendzoning, Bradley Hale, stands before him talking about his summer break, one apparently filled with attractive women, as would be expected from the Sigma. Bradley is describing one girl in particular when he is interrupted by a noise.

The sound of a familiar boy band comes to his ears as Maya pulls out her phone and orders that they not judge her before checking the text. Whatever it says must be rather unsatisfactory, based on her expression and groan of exasperation before quickly tapping out a response. Finn watches her hands move, secretly wanting to reach out and take them into his own hands, and to simply hold them- nothing more. He is rather innocent, after all, the type who, when he thinks that he wants to sleep with a girl, does not mean sex- simply means to lay down and cuddle until they have both fallen asleep. Of course, this isn't exactly thought of as a typically masculine thought- but he isn't really seen as a particularly masculine person, either. Which is probably why the girl before him, current apple of his eye Maya Ortega-Rios, reports that she must go and describes him as her best friend before walking off. He may have gotten a sugary smile, but it was to Bradley that the flirtatious smirk was pointed, a noticeable thing which makes Finn mentally sigh before smiling and saying goodbye. Jane mumbles an excuse as well before hurrying after Maya, probably to also go and obey whatever request Ama has just directed towards them. When both girls have left, he turns to face Bradley.

"How do you- I mean-" Finn sighs again, falling silently awkwardly before looking over towards the stage. I wonder when Allen is going to arrive, he thinks to himself, referring to his little brother in the Greek System.

#2013-01-19 21:42:35, as written by .euphoria.

Maya walked on the cement with her vintage shoes, that she may or may not have borrowed from her mother, making sounds on the cement. While walking toward her house, she passed the outdoor plaza with the smell of the Starbucks going into her nose. She would have loved the smell if she did wake up at 6 in the morning to serve it to people on campus. But, looking at it she saw the Alphas and the headhunter herself, Natalie Greyson. They never liked each other, she said that the sooner Maya got her ass deported the better. And, Maya may or may not have said she was an anorexic bitch when she was a freshmen but, she didn't mean to. It just slipped out. And she refused to apologize to the blonde haired witch for saying her opinion, this was America wasn't it?

From the look of it the Alphas seemed to be ganging up on Brandon and Sophie, for what? For talking to each other. She rolled her eyes and sighed. "Hypocrites." She said in her head. There they were acting on Sophie when they knew damn well that they all flirted with the Sigmas, she even heard that a few of them slept with Sigmas even when Natalie had that rule for them enforced. She would talk, well argue about that with Natalie soon enough. It was only a matter of time before Maya let Natalie know how big of a hypocrite she was. Maya walked past them without a word and continued to walk towards her house.

When she got to the house, she looked at the Theta symbol that was on the royal purple door. She used her key that was stanched somewhere in her purse. She opened the door and walked into the living room to see her two friends, Belle, and her best friend, Ama. She smiled at the two before taking a seat and looking at Ama. "So, what's going on?"

She looked at Brandon as he spoke to her, "Well, I was just passing by and as it where you were with friends." She shrugged. Whether Annie and Sophie were friend or not was... questionable. Sophie may have been new to America but she lived with backstabbing bitches all her life and in Korea, they didn't do it up front they were sneaky. And, Annie? Was absolutely a backstabbing bitch in her eyes seeing that she was in Alpha. the way she knew that is because, it took one to know one. "I am doing well, now." She smirked as he slipped a finger into her hair and moved it behind her ear. "Well that's good to know." She said softly as he did.

"There will be a party tonight and my father's club. Perhaps you could accompany me? Your friends are all invited as well." She nodded and smiled before seeing him look at Annie. She rolled her eyes as he saw his gaze go back to the short 5'6 Korean girl. "So, Will you join me? Or Will Natalie not approve?" She sighed. Of course Natalie wouldn't approve of him or Sophie going with him. "Well--" Was all she had the chance to say before hearing Natalie's voice interrupt her. "No, Natalie wouldn't approve, Brandon," "Oh shit" She looked at Natalie before biting her lip a bit. "Sophie, don't you have somewhere else you should be, rather than hanging out with this low-life?" She sighed knowing what she had to do. "I mean, yes of course but it's not like we're going to--" She said before having Karma interrupt her as well. "Really. You have to be careful around stray Dogs." She looked at Karma and then gave Annie a deadly glare, if looks could kill. She would be six feet under.

If she wanted to start something fine, but don't think Sophie wasn't going to call her out on flirting with every Sigma guy known all over campus like Bradley, Antonio, and even Sophie's own damn brother! Oh, if Annie thought so smart, wait until she saw Sophie actually put her 4.4 GPA to good use. She didn't even hear what Karma said after because her eyes were fixed on the little snitch of the Alphas. When Brandon started talking she looked at him as he spoke to Natalie. "I was just inviting Ae-Jin to a party this evening. I just told her how all of you were invited as well. I meant no real harm. It is the beginning of the new school year, Why not start it off with a bang?" When he touched Natalie's cheek, she raised an eyebrow. He must be an idiot to touch the ice queen herself. "So Will you be attending? I'm not asking to sleep with you or Ae-Jin. Just a simple invitation to Celebrate of the start of the New Year. I may even invite some Rushers." Was that going to get Sophie out of hot water? No, not at all but at least he tried. "Look, Natalie. We were not doing anything. We were just talking." She said to the blonde haired girl.

After getting his coffee and seeing his sister walk over to his friend, Brandon. Edric rolled his eyes and walked away right as he could see Natalie walking with Karma. He offered the two a wink right as they walked past the tall 5'11 Asian man. He knew something was going to happen. Little did he know that it had something to do with his sister. If he knew that his sister was in hot water, he would have went after and charmed her out of it. But, he didn't so he walked towards the Sigma house. He had his key on a necklace that was painted orange and black, thanks to his younger seven year old sister, Misung. But, at least he knew it was his when he saw it. He opened the door and looked in the living room seeing a girl sleeping on the couch, he knew exactly who it was. One because there was on girl dumb enough to sleep on the Sigma's couch and two, he could see the red lipstick peeking through her mess of brunette hair.

He kicked the couch with his new sneakers as he heard the girl groan. "Imogen... Imo. Wake up." He said to the British girl who just turned her face away from Edric and pulled the blanket over her head. Imogen was easily on of the Sigmas favorite girls on campus. If she wasn't a girl, she would be in Sigma. "Go away, Ed." Was all she said before going back to sleep. "Imo wake up, get out of your clothes, and then meet us in the auditorium. Alright? He said to her with a raised eyebrow seeing her groan and nod. "Fine, just get the hell out of my face. And, tell Bradley to never touch my drinks again." Imogen said as she got up and fixed her hair and rubbed her eyes.

"Alright. Now shoo. Out you naughty little Brit." He said before chuckling and seeing the girl turn around. [i]"I hooked up with one of the Sigmas, would you happen to know who it was?" She asked him with a smile on her face. He shook his head and shrugged. "Nope, sorry." Edric said to her before seeing her roll her eyes and walk out to door. He chuckled before waling up the stairs near the bedrooms. "Tony, sleeping beauty? Are you up yet?" He said with a sly smirk on his face as he leaned on Tony's door.

After waking up to the sound of Edric, Imogen walked out of the Sigma house and squinted her eyes as she walked out of the house and towards the Zeta house. She looked in her purse to slip on her black Ray-Bans to actually be able to see. She had a pounding headache from a drink that she took from her close friend, who was more like her brother, Bradley. They always just had to make a idiotic bet. And, this one was no better. She lost and had to take a drink. After taking that, she just was sort of out of it. all she can recall is sleeping with one of the Sigma guys, walking out, and just falling asleep on their couch.

When she got to the Zeta house, music was blasting already and girls were already up and ready for the day, and drinking but what else was new for them? Imogen walked up the stairs to her large room and tossed he sunglasses on her messy bed. She walked to her sliding closet and looking for an outfit to where for the day. She grabbed a pair of shorts and one of her new shirts. And, of course a pair of her signature combat boots. Imogen walked over to the bathroom and put her outfit on the sink before turning the hot water on a stepping in to wash herself off. She sighed as she began to feel refreshed from the night before. After about ten minutes of showering, she stopped the water and grabbed one of her neon blue towels and dried herself off before slipping her undergarments and shorts. Walking out of the bathroom, she sat on her bed and slipped her boots on. Standing up, Imo looked herself up and down in the mirror and smirked. "Perfect. She said to herself before changing at her small cheetah plugs to a pair with a white cross in the middle.

She walked out of her room and back down the stairs. She looked around at the girls as a few began to exit the house while others were doing there own things. She walked out of the Zeta house and decided she would have to face the students sooner or later, another ear of being called a slut and a whore by girls who wished they were as confident as Imogen was. But, she didn't care. She had tough skin and decided if girls didn't want to be friends then she would find guys like the Sigmas. She walked towards the auditorium not paying the Alphas any attention there wasn't a single one of them that didn't piss her off. They all hooked up with a Sigma and were trying to act like they never did. But, all the Sigmas were like her brothers, and she knew how to get shit out of them. She walked into the auditorium and saw Bradley. With a smirk she flicked him off and blew him a friendly kiss. She sat near some of the other Zetas and just started to take about her newest tattoo.

"My my my. Hell hath no fury," Brandon commented, his eyes drifting over Natalie and stopping behind her where the other Alpha’s were approaching.

"I mean, yes of course but it's not like we're going to--" Sophie attempted to protest, but she was cut off.

Karma had fallen obediently into position behind Natalie, much to her approval. "Really. You have to be careful around stray Dogs. Did you know that dogs are more manageable when they're fixed? Snip snip." The young Asian girl interrupted, making a cutting motion and Natalie smirked coldly.

The blonde felt a light, friendly brush on her cheek as her younger sister gave her an air kiss, indicating Annie’s arrival too. Then, she positioned herself just behind Natalie in the perfect formation. Annie really was the ideal Alpha.

"I guess the gang's all here." Karma pointed out offhandedly.

"You wound me, love. Surely, you wouldn't deny you girls a good time," Brandon said dramatically. "I was just inviting Ae-Jin to a party this evening. I just told her how all of you were invited as well."

Brandon touched Natalie’s cheek. He’s got some fucking nerve, Natalie thought to herself, anger bubbling in her veins. If she hadn’t been in a public place and an Alpha, expected to exercise perfect decorum at all times, she would’ve slapped him. How dare he touch her without her permission?!

“Get that off me!” Natalie snapped, reaching to wrench Brandon’s hand from her face, but he moved quickly. “I don’t even want to think about where it’s been…”

"I meant no real harm. It is the beginning of the new school year. Why not start it off with a bang?" He turned to Karma, commenting on her dog threat, "You are familiar with the concept to which you named, yes? Perhaps you keep that in mind." He looked back at Natalie. "So, will you be attending? I'm not asking to sleep with you or Ae-Jin. Just a simple invitation to celebrate of the start of the New Year. I may even invite some Rushers."

Natalie looked at him for a couple of seconds, allowing the tension to linger in the silence. She wanted him to be afraid of her.

"Look, Natalie. We were not doing anything. We were just talking," Sophie said, breaking through Natalie’s silence.

Natalie glared at Sophie. "Sophie, we were just looking out for you. Because we're your sisters.” Annie told her sweetly.

Natalie gave Annie a sugary smile, then turned back to Sophie. The saccharine sweet smile remained on her lips, but the sparkle that had been in her eyes when she looked at Annie, that sparkle that marked the smile as genuine, died. “Exactly. I wouldn’t want you humiliating yourself, and not to mention, us, by accidentally falling into bed with this… Ugh.” Natalie shuddered dramatically. “We all know how little self-control you have when it comes to your… Personal life, Sophie. I’m simply protecting you.”

There were so many little digs and personal attacks hidden within Natalie’s words that she knew Sophie would pick up on. Yet she wouldn’t dare say anything back. Natalie’s face was icy cold; her expression said it all. Anyone who attempted to challenge Natalie right now would be made to wish they’d never even been born.

“Brandon…” Natalie turned her attention back to the boy. In truth… She did want to go to the party. Natalie loved to party, despite how she berated the other Alpha’s for any show of wild behaviour. And after the stress of today, she was going to need the alcohol and the easy pleasure of being complimented, flirting and eventually sleeping with some guy who she would regret the next morning. Besides, she had to hand it to the boy, Brandon threw good parties. Due to Natalie’s obsession over control, she had to know everything about everyone, and so she was aware Brandon’s father owned plenty of clubs in the area. So, he could have an expensive party with great entertainment and fantastic drinks organised at the drop of a hat. But, she couldn’t show weakness after her short tirade by accepting his invite. “…Throw your party. But don’t expect it to be our first priority.”

Of course, Natalie had every intention of going. But no one else knew that, and she was planning on keeping it that way. She had to maintain the façade that she couldn’t care a less about his party and he should be kissing her heels in thanks at the fact that she even bothered showed up.

“Come on, Sophie. We have better places to be.” Natalie glared at the Asian girl, beckoning her with a slight flutter of her pretty little fingers.

With that, Natalie began walking towards the auditorium. She didn’t look back to check the other girls were following her, she just expected them to. And any who didn’t obediently follow their leader wouldn’t even want to consider the trouble they’d be in.

Out of the corner of his eye, Bradley saw Imogen arrive, looking slightly worse for wear. At the sight of her, memories from the night before flooded back to Bradley. He would have to go over and tease her. The moment would be too priceless to pass up. She smirked at him, blowing him a friendly kiss.

As Jane left, Finn turned towards Bradley. "How do you- I mean-"

"Talent," Bradley told him simply. "Give me a minute," Bradley said quickly, leaving Finn and crossing the auditorium to where Imogen sat with some of her Zeta friends.

"How's the head, Imo? After that drink I made you..." Bradley chuckled at her, giving her a cheeky grin.

The drink had been an interesting mixture, to say the least. Bradley couldn't quite recall precisely what was in it and what bet she'd lost to end up drinking the concoction, but he didn't remember any of it being particularly pleasant for her. But for him, that had been another story. Bradley recalled finding the whole experience hilarious, although that had probably just been the alcohol. The events following the drink had also been quite funny. For starters, Bradley had been pretty impressed she'd actually kept the drink down. She then proceeded to spend most of the night stumbling round in a drunken daze before tumbling into the bed of a Sigma. Although neither of them remembered the finer details of the night.

He paused for a second, but spoke again before she could answer him. "Actually... How's the foot, after the tattoo you had to get when you lost a bet to me? And how's was going pantieless for the whole summer as a result of the bet you lost, again. And come to think of it, you really do smell, after not being allowed to wear deodorant for a week after, oh yes, another bet you lost to me?" Bradley teased. "You know, considering your track record, you might just want to end it now and admit you will never ever beat me," he told her smugly, a smirk playing on his lips.

Imogen rubbed her eyes as one of the Zetas told her about last night and how it was one of those night that someone had to catch on tape just to show Imo that next day. They told her how she mostly stumbled around most of the night yet still could dance and drink even more vodka. To be honest, if Bradley and her ever had a vodka contest, she could actually beat him no problem. Shaking her head, she let a chuckle. "Oh my fucking God." Was all she had on her mind, which was rather calm even after a hangover. She, unlike the Sigmas could drink all she wanted and still be fine in the morning. How's the head, Imo? After that drink I made you..." She smirked as she saw Bradley and flicked him off with her right hand. She just gave him an annoyed look and sighed. God, she loved Bradley. He was like her twin brother.

They were exacting the same since they met their freshmen year. She still remembered their first dare to each other. One she actually won, before he learned her tricks. She opened her mouth before hearing him start talking to her again, teasing her. "Actually... How's the foot, after the tattoo you had to get when you lost a bet to me? And how's was going pantieless for the whole summer as a result of the bet you lost, again. And come to think of it, you really do smell, after not being allowed to wear deodorant for a week after, oh yes, another bet you lost to me? She looked at him with smirk and just watched him in fake sarcasm while he named off all the times he beat her in bets. You know, She interjected "No, what do I know?" She said before he continued. "Considering your track record, you might just want to end it now and admit you will never ever beat me," She scoffed as she let out a laugh as well.

"Keep dreaming, Bradley. You have a better chance of banging Maya and Ama... come to think of it, you have a better chance of sleeping with me before I before I say that big pile of bull." She said as she patted his shoulder. "But I love that you dream big, little brother." If all else failed she could always mess with him about that, his age. Seeing that he was a year younger than her, she teased him about that. She patted his head with a sly smile on her face, Bradley was the one guy in Sigma who was at least a junior that she never kissed, slept with, or even thought about in that way. It was just to weird to her, to both of them seeing that they thought of each other as sibling. Just the thought made her shutter. Looking at him, she saw the smug look on his face which made her roll her eyes. "Wipe that smug look off your face, or that pretty face of yours won't be so pretty anymore." Imogen told her close friend while raising her eyebrows and hearing the other Zetas chuckle at the two of them.

"Sophie, we were just looking out for you. Because we're your sisters.” This made Sophie look back at Annie with the same narrow eye look as before. Wow, she really wanted Brandon that bad that she would throw one of her "friends" under the damn bus?! Then she could have him, she had her eyes on Bradley anyway, she would say Antonio but her brother was too close to him for Sophie to even think about ruining their friendship. What? She had a heart when it came to her twin brother. As much as he wanted to either hit her or take a low blow, it wasn't her place. Her close friends weren't in the Alphas they were scattered, Maya in Theta and most of the boys in Sigma were close enough to her without her brother that she called them friends of hers.

When Natalie looked back at Sophie after looking at her ass kisser, the sincere smile was gone. Only an icy cold glare hidden behind a fake smile. “Exactly. I wouldn’t want you humiliating yourself, and not to mention, us, by accidentally falling into bed with this… Ugh.We all know how little self-control you have when it comes to your… Personal life, Sophie. I’m simply protecting you." She slightly felt her mouth drop and she wanted to object, but she couldn't. She just was being forced to bite her tongue like always. Something she wasn't fond of but something she had to do. She even questioned if being in Alpha was worth it, coming to America just to make her way back to the bottom. Then it came to her, of course it was. She popular whether or not. It made it worth it to her even if some of her friends didn't see why exactly she stayed with them.

When Natalie turned around, she wanted to explain to Brandon that she wasn't loose like Natalie said she was but, then she heard the blonde president call her name. “Come on, Sophie. We have better places to be.” She nodded towards Natalie before looking at Brandon and shrugging. She whispered in his ear. "Sorry." Before heading with Natalie towards the auditorium. She didn't know what to say to her, she knew no matter what she said it wouldn't help. Annie just had to throw the Korean girl in front of the bus.

OOC:Other will be up soon!

"Talent. Give me a minute," Bradley tells Finn before heading off through the auditorium towards a face which Finn recognizes but does not have any acquaintance with: Imogen. His eyes don't linger on the pair very long, as he awkwardly crosses his arms and looks out towards the stage, wondering when this stupid assembly is going to actually begin. So far it is primarily composed of people who are kind of catching up, though they've already had around a week to do so. Of course, Finn can't actually find any other Kappa boys, and this leaves him to continue standing alone, lost in his own thoughts. Alright, after this I have a choreography class with Miss Louisa, and then I can break before lunch before heading to Dance Theory III. At least I finished all my basic credits last year, so all I have is dance for the next two- that'll make life a lot more enjoyable, he thinks sincerely, glancing around the auditorium once more, eyes landing on random faces. The computer screen of a girl with headphones on who appears to be messing with some sort of musical software, a just-entering boy with dreadlocks, and then. . . Finn sighs very softly as a gaggle of Alpha girls, the tops of the Alpha ladder in fact, enter the auditorium, looking half in a mood and half just. . .them. The young man honestly tries his hardest not to judge people on their house -one of his close friends is a Beta, after all- but it is hard to do so when girls like Natalie and Annie represent the house. Though he would never dream of being rude or anything less than chivalrous to a girl, he does find it difficult to be his normal, gentlemanly self when girls are as shallow and arrogant as they appear to be. Stop stereotyping, he tries to remind himself, but to be fair, there is evidence that points to the self-centered nature of these girls. Sure, some of them didn't seem too bad- Karma had once come up to him and pinched his cheeks, calling him a cutiepie, but the majority did appear to have constant ulterior motives.

If he weren't a dancer, perhaps at that moment Finn would have slouched his posture to become less noticeable. However, it is nearly physically impossible for him to do such a thing after years of dedication and still be comfortable. So he remains leaning against the wall, a solitary figure in the auditorium as everyone he had been talking to has left by now. Maybe I should meet some freshmen? There may be possible future-Kappas, it would be good to know them? He decides, partially remembering his own rush week. It wasn't too bad, since he went with Kappa almost immediately and their initiation isn't as harsh as he's heard Beta and Sigma's are, but it had still been a slight culture shock. Or I could text Allen or Mario- but Mario should be somewhere around Annie, yeah? I don't get why he stands her- Shit. Judging again. I need to stop that.

As the amount of people flooding into the auditorium increased, Delilah had slipped headphones over her ears and pulled up a music editing and making software on her computer. Computer Science is what she plans to pursue as a career, of course, if only because it comes relatively easy to the young woman, but she does have a hobby of mixing music in her free time- she likes going to clubs to dance and such, so at some point she just started making dance music. Singing and things like that aren't really her thing, the girl has never been musically gifted in anything not involving the computer, but this she can at least do with some decency- not that it is a career she would ever genuinely pursue, because she'd rather be dancing to music than DJing it or anything of that variety. Only half of her attention is on the screen in front of her as music pounds through her ear drums, because the rest of it goes to surveying the people at this University. She's only able to come on financial aide and a few scholarships for 'women in IT or Engineering fields', as well as some help from the family that her grandmother used to work for, and thus fully intends to enjoy her time here for as long as all of that lasts. After all, everything ends eventually, and she can never know when the support she gets to be in this university will simply run dry. In fact, she pretty much expects it to eventually, but Delilah has never been an optimist, regardless of her sunny-sounding name.

She honestly just wants this assembly to be over so that she can get to her first class- something that isn't a common thought for the young woman. But she genuinely likes the subject she is majoring in, despite having mostly come to this school for the infamous parties and the legendary Greek System, and the teacher for her next class isn't too bad. CompSci 133, to be exact- intended for those whose focus is on Computer Science and who have a strong background in math. Perhaps she never liked writing or English class much, but the young woman has always had a knack for numbers- they are a constant and tend to have set solutions, after all. Delilah, unlike Finn, has no problem slouching slightly in her seat as she returns focus back to her computer screen.
