a/n- HEY UMMM so what's up i apologize for like not updating erm but this is a x-long chapter to make up for it and I'll make another x-long chapter tmr 4 you guys <33

9:45am

I finished putting in all the furniture my room and maybe like 2-3 decorations. It's very plain but i also just moved in like 2 seconds ago.. you can't even blame me. i glance around my room and i plop on my bed, groaning. It's already 9:46am and I'm already pooped. I feel tired and i just am so excited to get this day over with. It hits me that i have school in like a day too. The school went from grades 10-12. I used to go to a K-12 school so this is gonna be incredibly different. I mean, just a school for students that are in 10,11,12th grade?? The school is called "Crossland secondary". I'm not looking forward to it because it's the middle of the school year so i never got the chance to meet people. It's not like I'd talk to anyone anyways.. but, the nice part is i won't have to fight for my life in the hallways

I hear knocking the my front door but i don't think much of it, my parents probably just knocked something into the wall. I hear talking however.

???: "Hey! just realized you moved in next door! We live right across from you. We always love making neighbors feel welcome so we decided to drop by. Oh, how rude of me not to introduce myself? Im Susan, and this is my husband Frank!"

???: "Hello, is a pleasure to meet you! Susan, Frank. Im f/n, this is my beautiful wife m/n!" My dad said happily. I wonder what this is about so i quietly open my door and walk down the stairs and peek down the hallway. I notice "Susan" is talking still.

Susan: "It's a pleasure to meet you! And, these are my boys, Manny, my youngest, Greg my middle and my oldest Rodrick!" She tells excitedly.

I hear a faint "Seriously? I don't even know why i had to come." From one of her children. She subtly elbows him in the arm, telling him to stay quiet.

I'm f/n: "It's great to see you too! And, one of my boys is upstairs in his roo-" my dad takes notice of me "nevermind! He's right here, come here son! Why don't you meet the new neighbors?"

Huh? Oh fuck...

"um... hi.." i mumble, glancing up at them. I hated new people, or talking to people didn't know. God how was i even supposed to even stay afloat at my new high school when i can barley talk to my neighbors? I take notice and see Susan Heffley, Frank Heffley, Manny, Greg and Rodrick out the door. I see Rodrick leaning on the exterior wall of our house, Greg kinda in the back and manny holding Susan's hand and Frank next to Susan. I sigh and i give them a uncomfortable grin. Wanting to leave instantly

Susan: "It's great to meet you...." She says, unable to recall my name.

y/n: "It's y/n" i say, finishing her sentence.

Susan: "Oh! y/n. I see. It's wonderful to meet you darling! Hey.. you don't seem much older than my son? How old are you?"

y/n: "um I'm 15, almost 16.." i say, still not very confident, my parents are watching, proud of me since i never talk much to anyone and this is considered a improvement i guess to them.. i don't know. She said something about her son though.. i guess it would be nice to have a friend but he looks like he doesn't want anything to do with me. No he has not seen me yet nor talk to me but i don't know.. I'm just paranoid i guess

Susan: "oh that's great! You're my sons age, he's 16."

oh fuckkkk... am i seriously gonna have to talk to this guy??

y/n: "ohh... cool.." i say, looking away. I didn't wanna talk to this guy since— well- he just looked.. odd. I don't know how to explain it! It's just.. weird

Frank: "Anyways, are you guys settling in nicely?"

f/n: "Yeah. We brought most of our furniture in. It's just a matter of decoration now."

Frank: "Well, would you like to have dinner at our place? We assumed you wouldn't have groceries just yet so we decided it would be great to invite you over and have a meal. Oh, and to welcome you into the neighborhood!" He says kindly, i didn't wanna go so i was secretly praying my parents would decline the offer.. but they didn't. Unfortunately.

m/n: "that would be absolutely wonderful! Thanks for the invitation! We'll be sure to show up!"

Susan: "No problem! And dinners at 8, any allergies I should know about just so i won't accidentally put it into food?"

m/n: "Oh! My son, he has a peanut allergy." I hated when she verbally said that out loud, it's embarrassing! Like, the last few schools i went to had to make it so if you have peanuts you needed to sit in the office and eat there. Making every other kid eat "Wow! Butter" instead of normal peanut butter. I got bullied so hard for it yet i felt bad because it made me feel like people thought i was stuck up and "important" and not in a good way.

"Peanut allergy?" Rodrick scoffs. "What a loser.." he mumbles under his breath. His mom hears it again though and elbows him in the shoulder again, subtly but i noticed it but didn't say anything.

Eventually, the Heffleys leave and go back to their own house. I went back up to my room and i sat on my bed. I was thinking of exploring the town but i get lost uncomfortably easy. Like, once i tried to navigate something, ended up in another state. Like seriously? It's weird,
