7pm, Monday, Michael neighbor?
Michael and his family were home, as usual. Michael was actually grounded, again, to stay in his room for the rest of the day for his bad behaviours, shouting at his mother, to be correct. He didn't look at punishments like, stay in your room, or, no coming out of your room, that bad, he quit like to stay in his room, almost all the time, just so he could have some space for himself. He was looking through the window until he was a car part in front of the house next to them. The car seems unknown to his, so he decides to watch.

One family came out of the car, with bags and boxes in their arms. The car was full of stuff, it seemed like they were going to move in there. Michael just rolled his eyes, not really caring about it that much, until he saw a boy coming out of the car. He was also carrying a bag and some boxes, but he caught Michael's attention. He seems to be around his age, but looks taller than Michael. He started at the boy, thinking if he should talk to him later, or not. He must be coming to his school too, since other schools were far away...

As Michael was thinking, the family got into the house and he was just waiting, in hope that no one will use the room that he can see through his window, or, at last, that to be the boy's room. He seens sweet to Michael, too sweet. He know he wasn't straight, but knew he wasn't, and can't let himself be, gay. He's parents won't accept it, and god knows what thay could do to him if he starts dating a boy. It would definitely round his father's business and his relationship with his family...

The boy entered the room across his and placed some boxes down. Michael was just starting at him, watching what was he doing, 'cause god, was he good looking to Michael. He couldn't stop staring. The boy turned around and spotted him looking at him. "Uhm... Hi?" The boy awkwardly said, getting Michael's attention as he stopped staring, saying "H-Hello...", kinda of embarrassed as the boy just chuckled. "You must be my neighbor, am I right?" "I guess, uhm?-..." "Oh, my bad, I'm Xavier and you are?" "Michael" "Nice name! I hope we can be friends" "Yeah, me too..." Michael said embarrassed, not really knowing how to react... "Uhm... Sorry to be roud or anything, but is this going to ne your room?" Michael asked and Xavier said "Probably" as a answer "I always wanted a room upstairs" he added and Michael just chuckled, knowing he might make new friend.

He was just sitting on the bed, talking with the boy as he was unpacking, just to get to know his better. "So... Uhm, are you moving here, or are you just stay here for sometime?" Michael asked and Xavier said "'M staying here. My family decided to move here, because it's quite and we don't have that much people around as, you know..." "Yeah, that's true" Michael admin. "How old are you?" "I turned 18 in January, how about you?" 'Whoah... He's birthday is in January' Michael thought before answering "I'm 17... But I'm turning 18 in September" "That's cool" Xavier complimented as he continued with unpacking.

"Hay, I'm going down for more stuff to get, will you wait for me to come back?" "Uh, sure!" Mike said as the boy got out of the room across his... Michael just felt happy about the neighbors. Never thought he might meet such boy like him to be his neighbor. Michael chuckled a little before the boy came back into the room with more boxes in his hands. He paced them on the floor and looked through the window to see If Michael waited for his, which indeed, he did. Xavier smiled and said "You waited" "Yeah, not like I have anything else to do" Michael completed on which the boy just laughed a little. "And why's that?" Xavier asked "Uhm... Let's just say I'm kinda grounded?-" the Foxy boy said looking away as the taller boy just chuckled, continue to unpack.

After some seconds, he asked "Why are you grounded, Fox boy?" Michael's attention got caught as the boy called him 'fox boy?'. "W-What?" "Oh.. Uhm, you have the fox mask?- So I thought it would be fine to call you a Fox boy" Xavier said nervous as Michael remember the mask on his head as he slowly took it off. "Oh! You mean this mask?" Michael asked "Yeah? It's nice mask" Xavier said "Thanks!" Michael answered, adding "It's my favourite animationic which my father build" "Animationic? What's that?" The boy asked "It's like a robot. They can sing pretty well, I guess" "Ohh! Your father must be really smart then!" "Yeah..." They stopped talking for a moment. Xavier just continue with unpacking until he decided to speak with the boy again "Well, I better go downstairs, my parents probably needs me, talk to you later, Fox boy!" He said and Michael answered with "Alright" as the boy walked away.

Around 9pm
Xavier ate and want up to his room, just to see the boxes he still needs to unpack as he sighed. He continued to unpack, but soon after he remembered his new neighbor. He got up and went to his window, just to see if je was still there, but just as he looked, the boy was sleeping 'He must be tired'. Xavier though as he chuckled a little, continue to unpack his thing out of boxes that were on the floor all over his new room.
