Nicole's POV

I began packing my things in my truck and my family stood in the drive way watching me. I hugged them and said my goodbyes. I looked at my mom who looked worried about me leaving, "Don't worry, I'll call you when I get there." -Nicole. "Alright, be safe." -Mom.
I got into my truck and waved at them before pulling out of the driveway as they waved back.
After hours of driving, I finally reached New York City. I was surprised by all the traffic and so many people. As I stopped at a red light, I grabbed my phone to call my (gay) friend Nick.
I knew Nick for acouple years and I had met him through Brittney. Nick used to live in Michigan but moved here 3 years ago, it's been awhile seen I last seen him. I was glad to know that I had atleast one person I know here and that I was moving into an apartment 4 doors down from his. I had it pretty easy too, Nick was gonna help me settle in and he already got me a job at his mom's cafe, where he also worked.

Nick finally picked up the phone, "Hey Nick, I'm outside." I said as I pulled up to the side of the road in front of a apartment complex. "Alright, be down in a minute." He said before hanging up. I slowly got out of my truck and took in my surrondings. I turned around to see Nick walked up to me with his arms open, "There she is!" He shouted with a big smile on his face. "Damn, long time no see!" I said while hugging him. "It's been too long." He said as we both opened up the back seat doors to my truck.
