Today was the day. I was moving into my new house. Normally that would be a cause for celebration but not today. You see, I had moved in with my girlfriend about 5 months ago, but she left me for some asshole with a fancy car. She kicked me out of the apartment which I own and I had no where else to go. So I started shopping online for places to live and I came across a super cheap house. It was huge and I didn't know why it would be for such a low price but I took it because I needed a place to live.
I was driving down to the house. When I got there this woman stepped outside. She was wearing a leather jacket, ripped jeans, and black Doc Martens. She greeted me saying, "Glad to see somebody finally bought this old place. I'm Claire." She eyed me curiously and then gave me a slight smile. "Word of advice, this place is haunted." She said it in such a nonchalant way, as if it was just a normal thing. "Don't worry though they're pretty nice. Although those guys across the street are a bunch of pricks. Don't mind them" I looked at her with a face of concern, and slight bewilderment. "Alright.... I'll keep that in mind. I'm Michael. Have a nice day" She waved and got in her car. She drove off. I went to unlock the door but it was cracked open. I stepped inside and I was instantly tackled to the floor by a green ghost. She stared at my with narrow eyes. "Where do you get your hair done, it's so silky." That lady next door wasn't lying. "Umm I do it myself." Her eyes widened and she flew back inside. I could hear crashing and a large commotion from the depths of the house. The door opened slowly, and standing (Or floating I guess?) there were 6 more ghosts. They each had a Hello My Name Is:" sticker made from some weird wispy material that must have been smoke. The green one was apparently named Envy, there was a tall red one named Wrath, a shorter and slightly chubbier orange ghost was named Gluttony, there was a beautiful looking pink ghost named Lust, a yellow ghost named Sloth, a purple ghost in a suit named Greed, and a white ghost who seemed rather sure of himself named Pride. I was starting to see what was going on here. Wrath drifted forward with an angry look on his face but it seemed to get friendlier the close he got to me. "Welcome to your new home. We're your roommates kid." Gluttony pushed Wrath out of the way. "Oh you poor thing we need to get some food in you, come on inside I just made some pasta!" Envy rolled her eyes and said "Glut lay off the guy he's probably tired, or stressed, or both." I *was* hungry. Sloth looked at us and half whispered "After we eat we should take a nap. It'll help all of our moods, and we'll have more energy. Plus we deserve it." "Damn right we do." Said pride heartily. I stepped inside. Lust said "So you're moving in here alone? You're single?" I explained what had happened. She looked at me sympathetically and grabbed my shoulder. "Well screw her. We're gonna find you someone who's worth it. In the mean time let's get you settled in." She smiled warmly and we all stepped inside. Wrath grabbed my bags and launched them through the air into a room on the second floor. Greed took my wallet from my pockets. He stared at the contents and looked at me dismayed. "We need to get you a job and set up a budget." We sat down at the table and Greed returned my wallet. This was definitely going to be interesting.
