just friends

ch 1

Today is the last day I have here in Florida before I move the whole way across the world to los Angeles. My dad got a job as the CEO of the Pacific dinning car, he will make more than what he makes now. We spent weeks upon weeks going up there and looking for the perfect house for the four of us.Once we found just the right one get made the down payment and got started packing little by little. Sometimes we would go weeks without seeing my dad. He would either work overtime or pick up an extra shift to get more money or take the stuff we got pack and drove the whole way to the new house and start getting the house together. We should be totally move in but the end of this week. I just finish packing the things my mom told me that need to be pack for today. I sat on my bed and saw i got a text from my best friend paisley.

Paisley: wanna hang out ?

Me: let me ask my mom first.

Paisley: okay(:

I lock my phone and head down stairs to ask my mom. Once i was downstairs I went into the kitchen and saw my mom placing plates and bowls into a box.

"Hey mom"

"Yes sweetie" she said while looking up at me.

"Paisley was wondering if I could hang out for a little"

"Do you have everything I ask you to pack done?"

"Yes "

"Then okay you can just be back for dinner"

"Okay will do. Thanks mom, love you"

" you're welcome. Love you too"

I unlock my phone and texted paisley.

Me: hey I'm allow to hang

Paisley: great meet me at the park

Me:okay see you soon

I lock my phone and grab my shoes and slide them on my feet then walk out the door and started my way to the park. I have a lot of great memories here at the park. And I'm sad that im leaving them all. But I always wanted to go to Cali me and paisley talk about going there all the time. But it sucks that I'm going to be so far away from my best friend, and going to a place I know nothing about or have any friends. My mom allow me to go with my dad the next trip up there and help him put things away and set up my room. But I'm also going to take that time and explore our and hopefully meet some new friends. I spot paisley sitting at our normal spot. I walk over and sit down next to her.

"Hey"

"Hey girl"

"How are you"

"I'm pretty good. A little sad that you are leaving me"

"I am to but on the plus sign when you come and visit there will be lots of new places to hang out at. "

"True and I hear there is a lot of hot guys in Cali too."

"Definitely not wrong with that."

After awhile of talking and just hanging out I decided to leave since it was close to dinner time. I walk into my soon to be old house and take my shoes off while mumbling a quick "I'm home". I then went into the living room and sit down on the couch scrolling through Instagram, as I waited for dinner to be done.

I woke up the next morning and got in the shower. Today was the day I go with my day to the new house for the first time since we bought it. Once I was dry off and a pair of white shorts and a blue off the shoulders top. I comb my hair and brush my teeth. I then pack the last of my things and made my way down stairs carrying my box and putting it into the truck. I went back in and help him put the others into the truck and then got into the passenger seat. My dad got into the driver side a few minutes later. We wave goodbye to my mom and younger brother. Then we back out of the drive way and began our long journey to the new house.

I doze off on and on through out the car ride way. I started to get excited when I saw the "welcome to Cali" sign. I new we can't be far now. Soon enough we pulled up into the drive way of the house. I notice two boys and a girl playing some game a couple houses down and across the street from us. They look to be about the same age of me. Maybe we could be friends. I undid my seat belt and got out of the truck. And went to undo the back while my dad went to unlock the door. I pull up the trunk door and started getting my box for my room and taking it inside and upstairs to the second big room next the bathroom. I walk in the room and set the box down. I then stood up and walk out the door and head down stairs. I heard my dad talking to someone but I didn't know who. I walk over to my dad and saw him talking to one of the guys i saw earlier.

"Hey dad who's this?"

"This is Ethan dolan his one of our new neighbors"

" oh cool. Nice to meet you Ethan" i said to the boy.

"Ethan this my daughter Brielle"

I smiled and shook his hand.

Ethan ended up staying and helping us get all the boxes out of the truck and help us put them away. We are now currently in my room going through all my boxes, making small talk as we go.

"Where did you guys move from?"

"Florida"

"Oh nice."

I just smiled because i didn't know what else to say. After while Ethan went home and started putting my room together. It was a little bit past 12 when I was totally finished. I went to the bathroom and brush my teeth, then I strip down my clothes and put them into the hamper and put on my pajamas climbing into my bed and laying down. I plugged my phone in and close my eyes as sleep soon fell upon me.
