First Day in Town

Y/Ns POV:
I sat in the passenger seat as my dad drove to our new home. I watched as we drove past a sign that said 'Welcome To The Outer Banks'. It said more but we drove by too quickly for me to read it; I watched as waves crashed down on the shore line. The road began to turn into dirt and the house became less glamorous; I looked out the front window as we grew closer to our new home.

I saw our new home come into view. It was a one story house; It was kinda a fixer-upper, the windows boarded up and trash was all over the yard. I sighed knowing I would be the one cleaning the trash up. I looked at my father as he began to say "start cleaning the yard I am going to go pick up an eight pack" he said  kicking me out of the car before driving away. I sighed as I began to pick up the beer cans, trash, and glass from the yard. After I finished cleaning the yard I searched what was left in the garage from the prior owners for a hammer.

I grabbed the hammer and a wooden stool that looked unstable and walked to the first window. I set the stool down and began using the hammer to pry the nails out of the wooden panels on the window. Finally I finished everything and I heard the sound of tires coming to a stop in the front yard. I walked to the front yard to see my dad stumble out of the car. I knew it didn't take two hours to get an eight pack so it wasn't shocking to see that my father was already tipsy and nearly drunk.

He stumbled into the house and I began unloading the truck. I started with the boxes for my kitchen and ended with the boxes for my room. I sat on the floor as I began unpacking the boxes and placing the items around my room. The last item I placed was a framed picture of me and my mom, the last photo I have of her before her death. I noticed that the sun had already set. I had just finished my room and decided to unpack the rest of the house tomorrow especially since I heard my dad's friend talking in the living room.

The next morning I woke up to a beam of light shining through the curtains right in my eyes. I groaned sitting up as I slowly rolled out of bed. I walked to the bathroom splashing water on my face. I then changed into a yellow bikini and put on light blue ripped jean shorts and a white cropped top with a red pickup truck over it.

I grabbed my phone before walking out of my room to find my dad and his friends out cold on the living room floor. I don't feel like unpacking yet so I decided to go explore the neighborhood. As I wandered I came across a beach. As I walked along the beach I came across a puppy that was all by itself. I leaned down smiling petting the white fluffy dog "hi what are you doing out here all alone" i spoke softly to the puppy.

As I was petting the puppy it was startled by someone setting an ice chest down. Causing the dog to run away I stood up and a girl with brown curly hair walked up to me. "Hi, are you a Touron or did you just move here?" she smiled.

"I just moved here," I said, turning towards her.

"Cool, what is your name?" she asked.

"Y/N and yours," I asked, tilting my head slightly.

"Kiara so are you want to meet my friends" she asked

"Uh sure" I smiled
