Clay opened the door and smiled when he saw me

Clay: oh hey! You were here fast
Alisha: yeah, um no traffic
Clay: well come in, I'll show you your room

I followed clay upstairs to a decently sized room. It was actually beautiful and I couldn't wait to decorate. George then walked into my room

George: hello!
Alisha: hi George
George: do you like the room?
Alisha: I love it
Clay: cool, we will leave you to get settled in. If you need us, we will be downstairs
Alisha: ok! Thanks

They closed my door and I started to unpack my things. There was a bathroom that was connected to my room which was a good thing because then I didn't have to share with boys.

...

I had finished unpacking everything and had gotten everything mostly set out. Now all I needed was some furniture and things to stream with. I made my way slowly out of my room and down the stairs. I grabbed a glass and filled it with water before making my way to the living room

Nick: hi! You settling in well?
Alisha: yeah!

I gave him a smile before going back to my phone. I got a call from my best friend, tommy. I went towards the kitchen and answered his call

Alisha: hey Tom
Tommy: ALISHA HELLO HOW ARE YOU
Alisha: I'm good! How are you tommy
Tommy: I am good! Do you wanna play bedwars
Alisha: don't have a set up tommy
Tommy: what?! What do you mean
Alisha: *sigh* fucking mum kicked me out
Tommy: WHAT?! ARE YOU SAFE? IS EVERYTHING OKAY
Alisha: tommy I'm alright. Lucky for me I found three people who wanted a roommate so I met them earlier today and then they liked me so here I am
Tommy: okay, um are you safe at least
Alisha: yeah tommy I'm safe the boys seem nice
Tommy: BOYS?! ALI YOU DIDNT TELL ME THERE WERE BOYS INVOLVED
Alisha: yes three boys I am living with
Tommy: names and ages
Alisha: I don't know their ages but nick, George and clay
Tommy: oh ok, if anything happens you call me straight away ok?
Alisha: yes boss
Tommy: okay I'll call you at our normal time, bye bye
Alisha: bye tommy

-call ended-

Tommy and I had been friends for nearly 10 years now. Our dads used to work together in a company. When he came over to America, we met for the first time and were best friends ever since. Not many people know Tommy and I are friends, but we don't hide it

Alisha: sorry that was my friend
Clay: all good
Alisha: I'm gonna go to ikea, do any of you wanna come?

All three boys agreed and we were soon in what I assumed was clays car driving to ikea. When we got there I grabbed a trolley and started walking around. Okay so I need a desk, gaming chair and then a few bits and bobs. Clay and George had gone who knows where and nick was with me looking for things. I went into the the office area and started looking for a desk and chair, then someone said hello to me and I said hi back not thinking much of it. I looked up and saw none other than Noah

Alisha: god dammit

I turned around to leave but Noah grabbed my hand restricting me leaving

Alisha: Noah let go, we are in the middle of ikea
Noah: no, you haven't told me where you have been
Alisha: I don't need to tell you shit

His hold was getting tighter and tighter, for sure to leave a mark

Alisha: stop it, you're hurting me. Noah let go.
Noah: I'm going to keep going tighter until you tell me where you've been
Alisha: I've been living with friends ok?
Noah: since when did you become friends with boys
Alisha: s-since always
Noah: don't lie to me Alisha
Alisha: I'm not lying, please let go. You're hurting me

He let go of me and I grabbed my trolley and ran out of that section. I looked for nick, clay or George. I just needed to be around someone who wasn't him. I finally found George looking at some plants and let out a sigh of relief

George: oh hey Alisha
Alisha: hey George
George: did you find a desk and chair?
Alisha: nope, didn't know which one to get
George: I'll help you, let's go
Alisha: okay

I followed George back to the office area, where Noah still was. When I walked in, I knew that he was staring at me. I tried my best to ignore him and just continue walking around with George

George: this is a good desk, it's also adjustable!

I grabbed it and placed it in my trolley. Someone tapped me on the shoulder and I flinched

Clay: oh sorry I didn't mean to scare you
Alisha: no you're good

Then I saw nick walking towards us with legos in his hands

Alisha: why do you have legos in your hands Nick
Nick: because I wanted to build them
George: and us too
Clay: yeah we all want legos
Alisha: I'm living with literal children

I shook my head and continued walking around with the three of them nagging me to buy the legos

Alisha: behave for the rest of the trip and you can buy them
Nick: ok!

I continued walking around and grabbed a few more pieces of furniture. We had spent nearly three hours in ikea and I knew for a fact that Noah was still just looking at me and following wherever I go. We got to the check out and I started putting the items to be scanned

Clay: alishaaa
Alisha: put the legos in

The boys let out a cheer before putting their legos in as well

Cashier: you're total is $1,231

I took out my card and payed for it before we put our items in the back of clays car. We started to drive off and I kept looking back to make sure Noah wasn't following us. He wasn't anywhere to be seen since we left and I was out at ease

George: hey clay, can we get milkshakes please
Clay: sure. Nick do you want one
Nick: yeah I'll have a vanilla one
Clay: Alisha?
Alisha: I'm good thanks
George: are you sure?
Alisha: yes George I'm sure

Clay went through the McDonald's drive through and ordered three milkshakes for him, George and nick. I was scrolling through Twitter until I got a scheduled call from Tommy

Alisha: hello?
Tommy: LEA, LEA, LEA
Alisha: tommy, tommy, tommy
Tommy: GUESS WHAT HAPPENED ON MY STREAM TODAY
Alisha: what happened on your stream today tommy
Tommy: I HIT 100K VIEWERS AND AND I GOT DONATED 1000 POUNDS
Alisha: good job tommy! I'm so proud of you! I wish I could've watched but I was getting stuff from ikea
Tommy: ITS OKAY! MY MUM ALSO ALLOWED ME TO GO MEET WILL AND PHIL AND NIKI AND FUNDY AT BRIGHTON
Alisha: good for you! You deserve to meet your friends mr.innit
Tommy: enough about me. What are you doing right now?
Alisha: we just finished getting back from ikea, got milkshakes and now are heading home
Tommy: ooooh what flavour did you get
Alisha: I didn't get one
Tommy: oh.

I heard Tommy's mood immediately drop

Tommy: Alisha..
Alisha: no Tommy I-
Tommy: when you get home I'm gonna bloody FaceTime you and you better be eating something
Alisha: but Tom-
Tommy: I'm not asking Alisha
Alisha: fine, I'll call you when we get home
Tommy: ok, bye talk to you soon
Alisha: bye
