Dusk&Dawn

<Side's POV>

As I waited outside a large wooden door in a suburban house, I begin to feel extremely nervous.

I know I came to the right city. I know I'm at the right address. 

So why am I nervous?

There were orange and brown leaves rustling around my feet and an autumn chill in the air.

I rang the door bell before I had time to regret anything.

"He's here!" Someone yell from the other side of the door.

I heard the shuffling of feet before someone fumbled for the door's lock.

The door was thrown open and I came face-to-belly with a 6-foot tall man.

"Sidearms!" He yells.

"Speedy." I reply with a giggle.

He leaned forward and gave me a welcoming hug. I return the gesture and I could almost feel his excitement.

"How was the plane ride?" Another voice asked from behind the blockade of a man.

"It was alright. Nice to see you too, Samantha." I gave her a hug too.

"Please, just call me Sammi. Come in before you catch a cold. Lucas, move aside to let him in." Sammi, Speedy's girlfriend gave him a playful shove.

I squeezed my way past them and yanked my luggage with me.

"The guest room is to your left-hey! Hahahahahahah-stop it! Stop tickling me!" Sammi cried out as Speedy tickled her.

I took off my sandals and follow her directions and came up to another closed door. I turned the knob and slipped into the room.

It was clean and had a computer desk, complete with a Queen size bed and a chest of drawers.

I put my luggage to the side and took a peek into the guest bathroom.

It was small, but it served its purpose. The bathroom had a shower stall, a small sink and a toilet.

I didn't feel like unpacking right now, so I left my luggage where it was.

I feel completely drained, the plane ride was cramped and claustrophobic. But either than that, everything else was fine.

I left the room and returned to the living room.

Sammi was chasing Speedy in their backyard, with their two dogs, Phoenix and Kota.

After noticing me, Speedy ran up to me and ran behind me as Sammi crashed into me.

"Sorry!" She flailed as we both were sent tumbling onto their living room carpet.

Phoenix ran up to me and gave me a playful lick in the face while Kota was a bit more cautious and sniffed my foot.

"Welcome to our humble abode Side." Speedy said as Sammi scrambled off me and I sat up.

"It was a great greeting." I said between my chuckling.

I can't help it. I'm the giggling type.

"We are going out for dinner so I'm not quite sure if you want to film it for a vlog or something." Speedy scratched his head.

"I didn't bring a camera."

"You didn't? I thought you'd like to have done another faceless vlog." Speedy said, raising his eyebrow.

"Well I forgot. Besides I can use my phone." I held out my new Samsung Galaxy S8.

"So do you see how awesome Samsung is?" Speedy grinned.
