"Hurry your ass up, I!" my obnoxious older brother, Chandler, yells up the stairs as I come stomping down,

"Shut the hell up, Chan." I flip him off as I sling my backpack over my shoulder and he rolls his eyes with my parents who have given up on trying to make me happy about this move.

"Are we all ready?"

"To move across the country?" I ask, "Totally."

"New Jersey will bring good opportunities for you." my mom says and I roll my eyes,

"If we really have to move, you could've moved out of the country because of the horrible orange human who won the election." I mutter under my breath and go out to the car to claim the best seat in the car before Chandler does. I grab my Dunkin' Donuts bag and take out the bacon egg and cheese I got and take a sip of my iced coffee.

"It may not be that bad."

"Shut up, Chandler."

"I'm just saying...I don't want to move, either, but it might be better than Seattle." he states and I roll my eyes, plugging in my headphones and playing my Apple Music playlist to block out my brothers annoying talking on trying to be positive.

When we arrive, I get out of the car and beat Chandler inside and upstairs. I claim the biggest room in the house, which will probably be the only good thing about this move. In Seattle, I got the smallest room and my mom would never let me paint it or decorate it the way I wanted. I was stuck with pink walls, an ugly ass bed spread and crappy furniture that had princess stickers and scratches all over them. She called them memorable and didn't want me to change it, I guilted her into putting those dressers in the attic of this house and allowing me to decorate my room however I want. So, I'm painting a lighter color of grey, putting my bed against the windows and getting a white comforter to match the white curtains. I'm also getting a new nightstand and longer dresser where I'll keep clean and hanging my tv on the wall.

They felt really bad about this move.

"Iris!" my mom calls me down and I groan, "You've got your room, you can leave it now!"

"I'm coming!" I yell and stomp down the slippery stairs, "What?"

"Your father and I are going to go and get the paint, do you have the sample?" she asks and I grab it out of my pocket and hand it to her, "Chandler is coming with us, and your car should be in the garage if you want to drive around and get to know the town."

"'Kay." I nod and she gives me a sympathetic smile as I walk into the kitchen. My stomach growls as I open the new but empty fridge. "Great, no fucking food." I let the door shut and look around for where my mom must've left my keys. I open a ton of doors, all leading to either a staircase, a closet or a bathroom. "Where the hell is the garage door?" I look around and the doorbell rings.

I walk towards it, sliding boxes and suitcases out of the way as I walk toward it. I swing it open and see a gorgeous boy with a chiseled jawline and a great set of hair. Holy shit he's hot.

"Hello," he smiles widely and I smile,

"Hey,"

"I'm, uh, i'm your neighbor Ethan." he holds his hand and I shake it, "Um, my mom had me bring these over for when you guys arrived. She had to go to work, but she says hi and she'll see you guys around." He hands me a tray of cookies and I nod,

"Thanks." I smile and he nods.

"I also have a twin brother, he's probably sleeping with some girl or something, but I didn't want you to think I was being a jerk to you because you see him. We don't really look alike, though, so it wouldn't even really confuse you but just incase. Don't get me wrong, I love him to death, but he's a douche."

"Thanks for the heads up." I smile and he turns away but turns back,

"Sorry, um, my sister, Cam, she's a senior (in this story) and she's looking for another girl to join the field hockey team, if you're interested..."

"Cool, I played field hockey at my other school so tell her I'll probably find her tomorrow." I say. Since it is only a few weeks into September, I guess it's not too late to join a team. Plus, I love field hockey. I had forgotten all about joining the team during the move.

"Will do," he nods, then waves, "See you around,"

"Yeah." I smile, shutting the door. Maybe this move won't be so bad after all.
