chapter three

Today my stuff arrived. My brother, Cal, Harry, Chip and I were working together to bring it all in.

It wasn't too much mostly bedroom and bathroom supplies. Chip and I stocked the kitchen when we went furniture shopping. I also bought a large planter that was setting on the dining table we just recently brought in.

"I feel like I don't have that much stuff." I pointed out.

"That's probably because you only had a bedroom and bathroom when you lived with mum." Cal said.

"No dip sherlock." I mocked.

"There's no chips either!" Harry announced.

"Yeah there is." Chip called out.

"You guys are fucking losers." Callum muttered.

"Whatever, you're just jealous that I live alone and you don't." I jokingly stuck my tongue out at him and started opening boxes.

"Maybe we could trade places." He suggested.

"Yeah right, no way I'll live with them." I gestured to the boys. "Anyways how about some people unpack these things and someone come help me unpack my bedroom things."

"I'll help." Chip offered.

"Ok. The rest of you guys just get these things out of boxes." Chip and I went into my room to unoack the boxes in there. "This should be fun." I said looking at the mess."

"For one girl you sure do have a lot of things." He laughed.

"Haha. I'm not a hoarder it's sentimental." I defended. "Maybe we should put the bed together first." I thought aloud. "I'll get the toolbox."

I walked out of the room and into the front area I guess is what you could call it. It was a mixture of the lounge, dining and kitchen. Anyways I went to the supper table the boys had put together to grab the toolbox off of it.

"What's in these boxes." Cal asked.

"I have no idea mom gave them to me." I shrugged it off and headed back to the bedroom. Once we figured out the bed we put the matress on and started throwing everything from the boxes on there.

"Now we have room for the dresser." Chip announced. "God I hate unpacking." I muttered to myself.

"With as much as there is and as many people that are helping it shouldn't take long to finish and when you do you'll have a very sexy Netflix and Chill couch to celebrate." I laughed at his joke and continued unpaking.

After a few hours we had most of the boxes done. We all decided to head to Chip's apartment cause he had the most stocked fridge.

"Hey, Josh you're back!" I heard a voice travel down his hall as we entered.

"Josh?" I asked.

"Chip, is just his nickname that everyone calls him." Callum explained. (callum-freezy/cal-lux)

"Ohh." I exclaimed getting the gist.

"Chloe this is Joel, and Joel this is Chloe, my sister." Cal introduced us making me feel only slightly less awkward. I honestly feel like I am the human version of awkward. Maybe that's how i'll start introducing myself.

"You wanna beer Chloe?" Joel offered.

"No thanks got anything else?" I wasn't prude I just didn't have the brightest opinion of alcohol I didn't care if others drank though.

"We got Coke?" Chip asked.

"I'll have that. Thanks." He handed me the Coke and I happily drank that as everyone drank their beers.
