perfection; pyrocynical (niall comas)

chapter one

june didn't want to move to england. yet, here she was, packing her life away into crappy cardboard boxes. her older brother, alex, was super excited, though, as he got to see all of his friends again. alex moved with their father and her about four years ago, as their mother had gotten arrested. now, years later, the two of them were moving in together in england. she was so hyped to live just with alex, no rules, no boundaries as to what she can and can't do, but she was so nervous to be in a completely new place.

england was very different than ohio, obviously. two completely different atmospheres. england was so much bigger, and so many things could happen.

it was bittersweet.

"june, we're leaving!" alex called. june had an american accent, with the same lisp as her brother had.

"coming fuckface." june called back in a sing song voice. she went down the stairs, carrying luggage. the small wheels could only take so much, banging on the steps as she went down them, that they twisted out of control.

she yanked her luggage the rest of the way down.

"alright, let's go say bye to dad." alex said, and june nodded, abandoning her luggage and going into the living room. she hugged her father tightly.

"i'm gonna miss you so much." june mumbled, sighing softly. her father cracked a sad smile.

"you'll have so much more opportunity in england. it's so much bigger than it is here. you're gonna do great." his father replied. she hugged him once more. she didn't cry, because he was right.

this was better.

alex said his goodbyes also, and the two of them drove to the airport. june had never been on a plane before, so this was sort of scary to her.

now or nothing.

they made it to england, and were immediately met with bustles of people, all hurrying to get to wherever they needed to.

june felt out of place, while alex felt right at home. he began making calls, and the younger girl drifted off, observing where she was.

the airport was huge, and really hot as everyone was squished together like penguins. it was quite casually, like you'd see in a small lobby.

before she could finish observing, june felt alex grab her arm, taking her outside. she was met with a cold temperature now, which made her shudder.

"shit, it's so cold." she complained. it was even chillier than ohio.

alex laughed, and nodded. she noticed how happy he was. it made her a bit more positive about being here.

soon, a car drove up, with two guys sitting in. one had blue hair, the other blonde.

her eyes drifted to the blonde one, in the backseat. they locked eyes for a few moments, and then she looked away. alex ran over to the car, yelling and hugging them. the short girl stood behind him, looking down at her feet.

"june, this is jake—" alex introduced, pointing to the one with the vibrant blue hair. "and this is niall." the blonde one. she smiled a bit, waving awkwardly.

"alright alright, everyone's introduced, let's go." alex announced, getting in the front with jake, which left june to sit in the back with niall.

she couldn't help but to smile a bit as she sat down. "it's so weird, how the driver is like... on the opposite side." she began, to speak, becoming a bit more comfortable with them now. she was an extrovert, but only around people she knew. her and jake held a conversation about it, while niall pitched in a few comments.

she was already liking it here.
