Your POV

It has been a while since i have moved out of my mothers apartment. i used to live with my mother and siblings (if u have siblings). the reason i wasnt living with my father was simply because my parents relationship was strained and they weren't on good terms, but i still got to see my father and sleep over at his place, so everything was alright. my family was decent and my parents were supportive of my decision to move out and become a grown woman, paying my own taxes, cooking my own food... you know, the stuff an adult does. my parents had put together some money for me to live off until i get my own job. i have decided to move to the UK because... well i liked what i saw there. everyone seems so polite and i love the unwritten rule of not staring into peoples soul. so here i am, on a plane to the UK. i have decided to move more into the north of the UK since living on the west side can get expensive, and apparently the north is cheaper. Not too long after i got into my deep thoughts, my phone in my sweater pocket started vibrating. a message from my friend back in my home town/city.

//Messages//

i giggled quietly at the hyperactivity of my friend. he/she/they have always had this sparkling energy to get somebody to laugh, and thats why i appreciate having him/her/them on my side. even if i am way more pessimistic than him/her/them, i still can't help but giggle at him/her/their reaction and questions. since i don't got anything else to do for the rest of this flight, i decided to open up youtube and watch some videos, mostly (Favourite youtuber)s videos. the rest of the flight felt like forever until i finally heard the captain speaking, saying that we will land shortly. just like everyone else, i got up, grabbed my bag, and got the fuck out of that crowded place. i always had this rising anxiety being squished into strangers. after gathering all my bags, i left the airport looking around like an excited little girl who just got a new doll or coloring book. until i realised, how am i gonna get to my new home? i didn't have a car yet... I kept thinking until i realised: taxis exist. i take my phone out and google the nearest taxi station, and to my luck it wasn't far away, So i started getting on my way to the station and hopping on a taxi to get to my bran new home.

After around 15 minutes the driver finally stopped at my destination. and there it was... my own house. it was a little close to a nearby forest, which i didnt mind since i liked being close to the peace and not live in a loud environment. i payed the taxi driver, then hopped out of the car and got my bags out of the trunk. I watched as the taxi drove off before turning to my house, smiling. "this is where i'll live now huh..." i mumbled to myself quielty. it was completely different than from what I grew up in. but no time to talk, I had to unload my luggage inside and then go through my list of what i still had to buy. i make my way towards my house and pull out the keys, opening the door and being welcomed with a nice and fresh smell and atmosphere. i brought my luggage in and started to look around, first checking out my new bedroom which was down a short hall on the right, then my bathroom which is across my bedroom door. everything looks so peacful and welcoming, that is exactly what kind of home i was going for. i walked back to the front door, grabbing my luggage and going to my new bedroom, unpacking my stuff. it was empty first and i only have 2 blankets and 2 pillows, but the great thing is i can let my creativity go nuts. well i actually liked it more simple, a little plain you could even say. but all that for later, for now i think i will look arouns town, maybe get to know some people since i don't wanna stay completely alone in a town i've never been to. I finally finished taking the necessary things out and got up the floor i was sitting on since i didnt had any furniture yet, i grabbed my trusty black coat and put it over my (F/C) sweater, then grabbing my keys and phone and make my way outside. i lock the front door behind me and look around thinking. "where could i go?...." i thought to myself. i decided looking for some furniture in some stores would be a good idea for now, so i thats where i go first.

after a solid 2 hours of looking around town, buying necessities, i return back home looking at my phone while holding a bag and approach my house. as i looked at my phone i read that there is gonna be a storm warning tonight. great, on my first day here its gonna be soaking wet tomorrow. and it's apparently gonna last the whole night long. i sighed in disappointment. i actually really liked the rain and especially storms, but i was looking forward to a nice and dry day tomorrow. when i finally arrive at my door, i opened it and went to the living room, getting down some things i bought. it started to look nicer and more decorative in here. i bought myself a little beanbag to sit on until i get a couch. since the light from the sun shines more through my bedroom windows, i move the beanbad to my room and take my coat off, then sitting down on the beanbag and looking through my phone the rest of the day, texting friends and such. i noticed later on it was getting dark and got ready for bed, then laying down on my nice floor with my pillows and blankets, using one blanket as a mattress, and slowly drifting off to sleep.

It was now the next morning. It felt so weird sleeping in a completely new and different environment than from what i'm used to. especially with that storm that was going on all night, yet somehow i managed to sleep like a baby. After laying for a little longer, i finally decided to get up and brush my (H/L) hair, brush my teeth and change my clothing. I was planning to get more things for my home so it wouldnt look so sad and empty, mainly a bed, a closet and a couch for now. Before i could think any further, i noticed that my stomach was growling and i was... extremely hungry. So as i would, i grabbed my coat, keys and phone and head right out the front door getting myself something nice and warm to eat. I'm not planning on going to a restaurant since i would look lonely as heck sitting there all alone, stuffing myself with pancakes, so i got myself some groceries to cook something at home on my new stove. after returning back home, i get onto cooking and made myself some pancakes eith syrup. this was the first time i actually had pancakes with syrup. While eating i took my phone out and checked through ut again, answering messages my parents and friend sent me. after a bit i finished eating and washed my plate. i was lucky that this place came with fresh and new plates and other utensils since i am the first person to live here apparently. realistic right? Anyway, I put the plate away and thought... what do i do next? it was still relatively early, 11 a.m. to be exact. well since there was a nice and quiet forest nearby, i might as well take a refreshing walk and breath in the smell of fresh and wet trees and other plants. I got up the table and went to my bedroom, grabbing my coat, keys and phone, as always, and made myself on the way to the front door and out into the unknown (frozen 2 reference intended). After arriving at the forest that was only a 5 minute walk away, i slowly walked my through it, enjoying the freshness and sounds of the birds and other animals. I have noticed that there were a lot of trees that fell or parts broke off of, probably because of the storm yesterday. but i quickly forgot about it, just wanting to settle down a bit. while walking, i did hear some noises of branches falling and breaking. I continued my way though thinking nothing of it.... until i heard something big breaking right next to me. it was a huge tree.... and it was about to crash onto me. i was too shocked to move, my brain went on froze mode. i had so many thoughts filling up that moment. "am i gonna die? how will my parents react? am i gonna get paralyzed?"  but before the panic could overtake me, i felt something grab me, forcing me to move and fall before the tree could fall onto me. As i layed on the ground, i noticed somebody being ontop of me, groaning in pain. "fuck... next time, be careful there." i heard the person say. i looked up at them as they got up and brushed themselves off, then offering me their hand to help me get up. i stared in shock. "... who are you?..."
