I woke up feeling like my dream life had started. I guess this was my wake up call to the fact I was doing the right thing.

I saw Keith was already up scrolling on his phone while Cherry laid on his chest asleep. I smiled at the two of them before rubbing my eyes and yawning.

I assume Keith noticed since he shot me a whispered "Good morning." I looked over at him and slumped down in the couch. "Mornin." I responded before grabbing my phone.

I looked through the text I had gotten through the night. A few from my mom telling me how much she missed me already and a couple from Daisy telling me what Aidan was doing.

I responded to each of them before hearing shifting coming from the floor. Cherry was waking up and her hair looked like an absolute mess.

I started giggling quietly which made her look over to me with a raised eyebrow. "What are you laughing about?" She questioned as I shook my head.

"Girl your hair.." I said and her mouth made an 'O' shape with her mouth before she started doing a tired giggle.

I stretched and adjusted myself before looking into the camera of my phone and cringing. "Jesus I look like a mess too.." I said before hearing Cherry begin laughing.

We both started laughing together before I asked her where the bathroom was. She sent me down to where it was.

I looked in the bathroom and grabbed my mini coach bag that I had brought out and started brushing and styling my hair. Once that was finished I walked back into the living room.

This time there was a cute redhead boy standing and talking to Keith. Cherry spotted me and called me over. I walked to her and smiled.

"You hungry? My chef Toby just finished cooking." She said and gestured over to a red Demon who was wearing sunglasses. I smiled and waved and he waved back.

"Yeah actually, I could use something." I said and me and her sat and talked. "So..who's the cute redhead in the living room?" I asked in a whisper and Cherry made a shocked face.

"You think he's cute?!" She asked in a yell and I smacked a hand over her mouth. "Cherry!!" I said and gave her a displeased look.

She removed my hand from her mouth and began giggling. "His names Pico, that's Keith's best friend." She said looking over at him making me follow suit.

"Name twin?" I questioned glancing over to her to see her nodding. I darted my eyes back to the boy and we accidentally made eye contact.

I smiled at him and he smirked before looking back down to Keith. I felt my cheeks start to sting before I looked back at Cherry.

She smirked at me and I covered my face quickly. "Good lord.." I mumbled making Cherry start laughing. I groaned making her laugh even harder.

After a minute I calmed down and collected my thoughts. Me and Cherry finished eating and another demon took our plates away to wash them.

We walked back to the living room seeing Keith and Pico separated on the couch on their phones. Cherry jumped over and snatched Keith locking him in a tight hug causing him to laugh and hug back.

I sat beside Pico and looked over to him. "Hey, I'm Niko!" I announced getting the introduction out of the way.

He put down his almost demolished phone and looked over to me. "I'm Pico..what's up?" He asked as I leaned back into the couch.

I gave a small shrug. "Kinda dreading today..gotta get all my crap moved in." I said rolling my eyes before laughing gently.

A small chuckle left his lips. "I'm sure it won't be too hard." He said putting his hand behind his head. "You underestimate how much stuff I have." I said giving him a playful glare.

He raised an eyebrow. "It's almost like you're challenging me." He said making me giggle. "Maybe I am." I pestered on.

We both started laughing which obviously caught the attention of the couple sitting on the far end of the couch.

I looked over and saw Cherry smirking at me once again. I rolled my eyes before we started laughing together. "Are you ready to start moving into your new penthouseee?" Cherry asked standing up and yanking me up from the couch. I laughed and looked at the two boys still sitting.

"If the guys are ready to move all my stuff then yep." I said and stretched before Pico and Keith stood up. "Alright let's go!!" Cherry chirped and we all made our way out of the house and to the limo she had.

We got in and her driver started taking us to my new penthouse. I sat next to pico while Keith and Cherry sat across from us.

"Excited?" Pico asked catching my attention. "Ah, sorta, I doubt Newgrounds is anything like Hollywood." I said and he cringed.

"You moved from Hollywood to here?" He asked and I nodded laughing. "Yeah, actually I moved here to reconnect with Cherry." I said gesturing over to the girl who was busy chatting with Keith.

"Well, I can tell you now..there's a part of Newgrounds to stay on and there's a part you should probably stay away from." He told me and I raised a brow. "How come?" I questioned wanting to know more.

"Well, I live on the not so good side, a lot of drug dealers, druggies, alcoholics, shooters, etc." he said leaning back. I hummed as a response. "Well..if you ever need a place to crash my penthouse is open." I offered.

He raised an eyebrow to me. "Inviting me over already? You must be desperate." He said giving me a smirk. My cheeks heated up and I covered my face. "N-not like that!! I was just saying! Your place seems dangerous." I told him removing my hands from my face and crossing my arms.

He chuckled. "I know, but I should be fine, I know how to care for myself, plus Keith and a few of my buddies live around there." He said crossing his arms as well.

I looked over and saw that his seatbelt was on. A displeased look spread across my face and I shook my head. "You should really wear a seat belt." I lectured as if I was his mother.

He looked at the seat belt and shrugged. "Well, too late now." He said as the limo came to a stop. I looked out the window and indeed we were in front of my new penthouse.

"You got lucky this time." I told him as we all got out. I looked to my side and saw around 3 moving trucks. Pico looked to my side and cringed. "Maybe you do have a lot of stuff.."

"I'm actually missing two.." I murmured looking to my other side seeing two more vans make their way behind the limo.

"There they are!" I chirped out and heard Pico sigh. "We aren't getting this done today." He said and I whipped my head around to look at him. "I bet you we will."

"A bet? I'm good at those, what's the deal?" He asked and I gave an unsure noise. "I don't bet with money.." I said, gambling was a running addiction in my family and I was not about to start.

"Alright Alright, we'll come up with something later. Bets on?" He questioned and I shrugged. "Sure, bets on!"
