*Sigh*

Of course my luggage takes the longest to get off the plane!  I thought to myself. Since I was moving, I had 3 large suitcases, a backpack, and a tote bag. When I finally got all of my luggage, I walked out of the airport looking like a lunatic, and tried to call an Uber.

After a few minutes, I looked around. "This place is actually really nice," I said to no one. Suddenly, there was a low voice that said," Yeah, it really is." I jumped to see my Uber  waiting for me with the passenger's window down looking at me. "I'm here to take (Y/N) to the apartment complex." (I don't know what else to call it, so just deal with it! XD) "That's me," I replied weakly. He helped me place my bags in the trunk and we started driving.

I tried to make conversation with the driver because my phone was buried in my bag. I had shoved it in my tote bag after I had text my mom and saw my final piece of luggage on the conveyer belt.

"So, uh, what's your name?" I asked sheepishly. "Mark," he replied in a low tone. "How long have you been an Uber  driver?" "Two months." I hated this. This was so awkward and Mark looked like he could kill me. What he said next surprised me. "So (Y/N), why the move?" "How did you know that I was moving?" He chuckled. "Who would pack that much just for a vacation?" He had a point. "That is still a bit creepy that you know that I'm moving!" I snapped. "You are also going to an apartment complex! You can't rent an apartment for only a few nights!" He laughed. I could feel my face getting hot. I was about to say something smart back to him, but he said," We're here."

I looked up at the complex. It was a simple, brick complex. "That will be 25 pounds."

(I don't have a pound symbol, so I will just write it out)

I handed him the money and he helped my carry my bags inside. Once inside Mark said, "Goodbye (Y/N), welcome to Brighton." I thanked him and went to the front desk. A short, pale woman greeted me. "I guess that you are (Y/N) (L/N), correct?" "That's me." She smiled." I will just need you to sign some things and you will be good to go!" "Thank you!"

After 15 minutes of paperwork and small talk, the lady said," You apartment is on the 6th floor, room 618. By the way my name is  Violet, and I am here if you have any problems." "Thank you, Violet." She handed me my key and told me where the elevator was and sent me on my way."Welcome to Brighton!" She yelled. "Thank you!" I smiled and waved to her.

As I pressed the elevator button for my floor I couldn't stop smiling. As I sat in the elevator with all of my bags my smile dropped. " How am I going to bring all of my bags into my apartment without making a lot of noise?" I wondered. The elevator stopped at the 6th floor and my apartment was at the end of the hallway. I stumbled around trying not to bang my bags against the walls of the narrow hallway. I finally reached my apartment and opened the door. I left the bags outside and stepped into my new home.

"Wow."

The walls were a tan color and the kitchen counters were white with a black, marbel surface. The bathroom walls were light yellow and the counter was white and the shower was small. The rest was empty and I heard a knock at my door. I was startled, and turned the corner of the soon-to-be-bedroom slowly.

At the doorframe stood a tall man with a black shirt that read, "Rick and Morty," and had a picture of a young boy and his probably grandfather. His hair was black at the sides, but a faded light green at the top. He had a goatee which wasn't very full.  He greeted me with an ," Uh, hi! I just came to see if you need any help. I heard slight banging and I came outside to see a bunch of bags." He had an Irish accent and was very attractive. "S- Sure," I stuttered, "Thank you..?" "Sean," he replied. "Thank you, Sean," I said nervously. He grabbed 2 of the heavest suitcases and asked," Where should I put these?" "Oh! You can just put them on the floor by the kitchen." "Great!"

We moved all of the bags inside in under 5 minutes, and just stood in the kitchen, awkwardly. "Thank you so much, Sean!" I said a little bit to excited. He smiled and said," Of course...?" "(Y/N)"I replied. "Of course, (Y/N)! Anything to help!" He was so cute! Snap out of it!

"So, what do you do for a living?" I ask. He chucked, "Well, this may be a bit odd," he warned. "It is fine! What you do, is what you do!" I assured. "Well, I record myself playing video games and I post it to YouTube." I gave a shocked face. "That's cool!" I replied. "Well I think that your face doesn't agree with what you're saying!" He laughed. "How many subscribers do you have? You have to have a lot to do it as a job! Let me guess! 2 million!" He looked like he was cringing at my guess. "What?" I asked," too high?" He rubbed the back of his neck and said," Almost 16 million," he said sheepishly. My jaw dropped. "16 million!!!" I screamed. "Almost," he said while smiling.

I asked him about 1 billion other questions about being a famous YouTuber. After a few hours, I heard another knock at the door. I looked at my phone and noticed that was midnight.

I answered the door to see a woman with short, strait, brown hair, and light blue eyes that looked just like Sean's. " Hi," the woman said. "I'm looking for Sean, have you seen him?" Sean came to the door and said, " Signe!" ( her name is pronounced Seena so try to remember that!) "Sorry for being this late! I was helping our new neighbor, (Y/N),  bring in bags and we just talked. Sorry, babe, " Sean pleaded. Babe!!  "It's okay, Sean. I wanted to make sure that you were ok," Signe replied. " Where did you move from, (Y/N)?" Signe asked. " I came from (your hometown), (your state.)" " I would love to get to know you, but its a bit late. How about the 3 of us go get lunch tomorrow?" Signe suggested. "That's a great idea Signe! Does that sound good, (Y/N)?" Sean asked. "Of course!" I put on a fake smile while answering. "Great!" Sean and Signe said in unison. They laughed while I faked my laughter.

"Let's exchange numbers, so we can talk about where to meet up!" Signe said. We all exchangd numbers and Sean and Signe headed for the door. " It was great meeting you, (Y/N)!" Signe exclaimed. " You, too!" I replied sarcastically. " Hope that you get a good night's rest!" Sean replied. " They walked out the door, but before they closed the door, I said," Wait! I just wanted to thank you again, Sean. I would've been up for hours bringing my bags in if I didn't have your help!" He smiled and said," Of course, (Y/N). See you tomorrow." He closed the door and left.

I sighed and blew up my air mattress. As I laid on my bed, I grabbed my phone and text my Mom.


Me: Hey Mom, I hope that I didn't wake you up! I'm laying in bed rn, and I wanted to say that everything is great and my neighbors helped me with my luggage and we are getting lunch tomorrow. Love you <3 

Mom: That's great sweetie! I can sleep well knowing that my daughter is safe and has a few friends! Love you too! Good night! <3   

Me: Thanks! Good night! <3

I turned off my phone and went to sleep and dreamed of Signe rubbing Sean in my face.

There's something to add to my To-Do list: Play nice until Sean forgets about Signe and we can be together.

Tomorrow is another day


Author's Note: Hello! I hope that you enjoyed this chapter! I tried to make it longer than the last one (that's what she said! XD) but it was still pretty short. The chapters will most likely get longer as time goes on. I just want to say that I think Sean and Signe are perfect for each other, and that Signe wouldn't act the way that I portrayed her. It's just a story, bro! I respect the couple and hope that they stay happy together! Thx for reading! DUECES!!!!!
