Give Me Love...

Chapter 3

As he walked away, he still glared at us. We look back at each other and giggle a little bit. "I can't believe that we are neighbors!" She shouts and I shush her. She gasps and grabs my wrist making me wince. Yep, self harm... She drags me towards her parents and little brother. "Mom, Dad, this is Skylar. We met at the airport and she is our new neighbor" Carter says, introducing me. I hold out my hand for her mother to shake but instead she pulls me in for a tight hug. I giggle and wrap my arms around her too. She lets me go and I actually shake her father's hand. I bend down to the little boy. He looks like he is about 7. "Hi cutie " I say smiling at him and he hides behind his mom's legs. "Sorry sweetie, he is really shy" Her mom says laughing lightly. I stand up and nod my head. "Well I have to go finish packing. It was lovely meeting you guys " I say and start to walk away. "Bye Skylar!" I hear them say. I walk up to the moving truck and start to grab the stuff going into my room. My mom had movers come in and take care of the rest of our furniture. But i didnt trust them. "Wait sweetie!" My mom yells. I turn to look at her, still standing in the U-Haul truck. "Don't you want to paint your room and stuff?" She asks and I nod. I see Carter walk out of her house and look back to my mom. "You want me to go pick up paint and stuff?" I ask her. She nods her head. For me, blue, gray, and ummmm, Brown!" She says. I nod and jump out of the truck. "Sky are you going to go get paint?" I hear Carter shout to me. I nod my head and she throws her hands up. "Me too! Lets go!" She says as she runs to her parents car. I nod to my mom and kiss her cheek. We drive to a hardware store and when we step in, we are immediately hit with the smell of wood and paint. We walk back to the paint and grab all of our colors, putting them into a cart. We walk over to lamps and lights. I grab a chandelier type light/ fan while she just grabs a couple lamps. We grab fairy lights and Christmas lights also and we go to a check out. We pay for all our items and are soon on our way home. We kind of got lost but she uses her GPS to find our way back home. When we do, we say our goodbyes and walk into our houses. I hand mom each can of paint except my can of black paint and multicolor paint. I run up the stairs and pick a room. It has a window on each side of my room so I take the chance to see if Carter's room is next to mine. I dont see her but only a brick wall. I look on the other side to see the room of a teenage boy. Oh great... Mr grumpy pants. I say to myself and start to paint the walls black. I give them a few hours to dry after i painted them then grab the multi-colored paint. I pick it up on a single brush and start flicking it at the wall. Paint splatter. After a while im done with that and let it dry. I go downstairs and help my mom paint the rest of the house. It turned out pretty good. After all of it dried, we moved in all the furniture. I walk back up to my room tiredly and plug all my devices into their charger. I take off my flannel and as soon as my head hits my pillow, I was out like a light...
