Real World- Summer’s Obsession

Introduction

I looked up at the huge house with one huge bag in my hand. I was nervous and happy at the same time. I was to live in a house with four other guys and five girls for a few weeks. The winner of the competition was to get a million dollars in scholarship money and the second place gets 50,000 dollars in scholarship money. I took my other bag out of the trunk and looked at Travis Parker who was my best friend. I also lived with him and his mom. My mom died a few years ago and my dad wants nothing to do with me. Travis has dark brown hair that is done in a fohawk and bright blue eyes.

“Be good and good luck.” She said hugging Travis and then me.

“You ready for this?” Travis asked me.

“Ready as I will ever be.” I replied.

We went up to the front door and rang the bell. The door was opened immediately by a girl. The girl had straight platinum blonde hair and blue eyes.

“Like OH MY GOD come in!” she said excitedly while pushing her blonde hair over her shoulder like she was just here to see who would be her next boyfriend.

We stepped into the house. The foyer was a room in itself.

“Go pick a room upstairs. First come first serve.” She said.

“How many other people are already here?” I asked.

“Um…” she said while counting on her fingers.

I just looked at her as if this was going to get annoying.

“Three but counting you guys is five.” she replied.

Wow and she had to count that on her fingers. I could tell she was already going to be annoying. It was also somewhat strange being on the camera as I had a conversation with someone. The camera crew following me around was a little awkward but I bet I will get use to it soon enough. We went upstairs and started looking in rooms. We came to a room with two beds and we looked at each other.

“This will do.” He said setting his bag down on one of the beds.

There was a knock at the door and we both looked.

“We are asked to meet in the living room.” Said a gothic guy.

His hair was black and he was wearing all black. His eyes were a dark shade of brown.

“Where is that?” asked Travis.

“Follow me.” he said.

We both left the room and followed him back downstairs through the foyer and then through a door way that lead into a living room. Everyone was already sitting at two couches around a coffee table. The gothic guy took a seat next to an emo looking guy. We all were all so different. We took a seat down in between a jock and a punk girl, which were the only two open seats. There was a round case with keys in it and an envelope on the table that had Travis’ name on it.

“Who is Travis?” asked the Goth.

“I am.” Replied Travis.

“Could you open the envelope?” asked the jock.

Travis grabbed the envelope, opened it, and took out the card. Travis read:

You are all to introduce yourselves to each other. You all are 18 years old so you can skip that part, but introduce yourselves and get to know each other. That is your task for today. Travis will go first then he will pull a key out with a name on it. That person will go and so on.

“Ok I will start I am Travis Parker and I am from Chicago, IL.” He said.

He pulled out a random key.

“Ava.” He said.

“I am Ava Belli and I’m from New York City.” She replied and then pulled out a key.

Ava has curly brown hair and grey eyes. She was your normal prep.

“Gavin.” She said.

“I am Gavin Chilimintris and I’m from Houston, TX.” Replied the Goth.

He pulled out a key.

“Elijah.” He said.

“I am Elijah Griffin and I am from San Diego, Cali.” replied the emo.

Elijah has jet-black hair that is medium length and it covers one of his eyes. His eyes are a light blue. He pulled out the next key.

“Lily.” He said.

“Lily Hayes and I am from Myrtle Beach, SC.” She said pulling out the next key.

Lily is a punk with dark brown hair that was cut at different lengths and it was very short. He eyes are brown.

“Devin.” She said.

“I am Devin Chilimintris and I am from Houston, TX also because Gavin is my twin brother… hard to believe huh.” He replied.

Devin was a jock; he has blonde hair and blue eyes. He pulled out the next key.

“Emily.” He said.

“So… I’m Emily Prospero and I am from Baltimore, Maryland.” She said.

Emily was the most normal one here. She wasn’t a prep, cheerleader, goth, or a punk. She was just a normal person. She had brown hair and brown eyes.

“Clara.” She said.

“Oh my god! That’s me! I am Clara Sullivan! I am from Jacksonville, FL!” she said in an annoying high pitch voice.

She must have been a cheerleader in high school. She was the girl that opened the door for Travis and me.

“So I have to pull a key…,” she said while pulling out a key “Natalie!”

“Natalie Johnson and I am from Charlotte, NC.” she said.

She had red hair and emerald green eyes. She looked like she was a cheerleader too in high school but just not as dumb at Clara.

“Last key,” she said pulling out the key “William.”

“I am William Ashey but, I go by Will and I am from Chicago, IL.” I replied.

I have black hair that is medium length and layered. I have emerald green eyes.

“Well that is everyone. Now what?” asked Ava.

“I guess we go to bed.” Replied Natalie.

“Yeah I am pretty tired too. It was a long flight to get here.” Replied Emily.

“Flight… we had a long car ride that took days.” Replied Travis.

“Don’t have enough money for a plane ticket?” asked Devin.

“Not really.” Replied Travis.

“No selling enough crack?” asked Clara.

“What is that suppose to mean!” I yelled.

“I don’t know he looks like a drug dealer.” Replied Clara.

“And you would know what those look like.” Replied Lily.

“Guys come on its our first night here.” Replied Emily.

“Do you really want to know why we didn’t have money to get plane tickets?” I asked.

“I wasn’t talking about you, I was talking about Travis.” Replied Devin.

“Well I live with him.” I replied.

“So you’re the poor one?” Devin asked.

“My mom died of cancer a few years ago, my father disowned me because I had cancer too but I survived it thanks to Travis and his mom for taking me in and paying those bills, hint why we are both here for the scholarship money.” I said.

“Well aren’t you emo.” Replied Gavin.

“FUCK YOU ALL!” yelled Elijah getting up and running out of the room.

“Now look what you done asshole!” yelled Lily getting up.

“Where are you going?” asked Clara.

“To go check on him if it’s any of your business mother.” Lily said leaving the room.

“We are all cranky after our long journeys so maybe we all should call it a night and go to our rooms and get some rest.” Replied Emily.


Elijah’s POV

I locked myself in the bathroom and pulled out my razor blade. I put it to my arm but stopped when I heard a knock on the door.

“Elijah you ok?” asked a girls voice.

I wasn’t use to anyone actually giving a crap about me. I put the blade down on the sink and opened the door.

“I guess…”I said.

“What’s that?” asked Lily looking past me at the blade on the sink.

“Pain reliever.” I replied.
