The Apartment

Chapter One

"I hope you enjoy the place. You have my number if you need anything."

I waved goodbye to Tim, the manager of the apartment complex I just moved into. I carried the last of the boxes up three flights of stairs to my apartment, 3B. After setting the box down in the living room, I wandered around the apartment. It was a decent apartment, pretty nice for the price. It had a large living room, good sized kitchen, a nice master bedroom and another smaller bedroom, and one big bathroom. When I saw the ad in a newspaper, I instantly called the manager. The apartment in the ad was bigger than my current apartment, and cost a few hundred dollars less. The only downside was that it was a few minutes farther away from my work, but it didn't bother me too much.

I went back into the living room and grabbed my phone from my jacket. I decided to call my boyfriend to tell him that I was finished moving. He picked up after a couple rings.

"Maddie? Is everything okay?"

"Yes Carson, everything is fine." I rolled my eyes at his concern. He did this every time I called him. "I just wanted to let you know that I finished moving everything into my apartment. I thought we could go out to lunch before I started unpacking."

"That sounds good. You wanna get some pizza?"

"Of course! I love pizza." Who doesn't love pizza I thought to myself. He laughed at my response.

"Okay I'll pick you up in about ten minutes. Love you."

"Love you too." I hung up and went to go find my hairbrush. I wanted to at least attempt to look decent. I looked in the bedroom and then realized I had put all my toiletries in the bathroom already. As I was brushing my hair, I heard a door slam shut. I jumped and dropped my brush, breaking it.

"Crap. This was a good brush." I left the bathroom muttering angrily under my breath. I noticed my bedroom door was closed. That's weird. I thought I left it opened. I brushed it off and decided to go wait outside for Carson. I grabbed my jacket, phone, and keys before walking out of my apartment, locking the door behind me.

So I decided to write another story! This is going to be another short story type thing although it will be longer than my other one. This one will be a couple of chapters long, maybe more if I have more to write. This is just a short first chapter to get you introduced to the story. The other chapters will be longer. I hope you enjoy! Please read, comment, and vote!
