Let's Start Over - An Almy Story

Chapter 9 - Moving Day Part 2

ALLY'S POV

After we finish drinking our coffees, we all go out to my car and grab a box. We finally have all the boxes out of my car and in my room. My bed and chair won't get here until later because they are in a moving truck, but I do have my desk since it fit in the car. We take all the pieces for it out of it's box and set them on the ground. "Okay do you guys happen to have any tools?" I ask. "Yeah we do. I think Amy had them last. Go ask her." Meghan replies. Oh gosh. "Okay." I answer. I walk outside my room and across the hall to Amy's door. Oh, that's another thing. Meghan has a room downstairs, but both mine and Amy's rooms are upstairs. I knock on Amy's door lightly, getting no response. I knock again, louder, but still get no response. Not wanting to invade her privacy by barging in, I go back to my room. "She didn't answer." I tell them. "She must have headphones or something on." I state. "Oh." Meghan starts. "Just walk in then." she continues. "But I don't want her to get mad at me." I say. "Ally, it's fine. Just go in and ask for the tools." Jess says. "Alright. If you say so." I say reluctantly, leaving the room again. As I stand in front of her door again, I knock again just to make sure. No answer. Oh jeez, I really hope I don't walk into something I don't want to see. I slowly open the door to make sure she's not naked or anything and see her laying on her bed with her headphones in. "Hey! Have you ever heard of knocking?" she says,taking out her headphones when she sees me. "I did knock! Meghan told me to just walk right in." I explain. "Ugh of course she did." she mumbles, still audible enough for me to hear. "What do you want?" she asks. "Meghan and Jess said that you were the last to use the tools. Do you have them?" I ask politely. "Yeah they are right there." she says, gesturing to a black box on her desk. "Thanks." I say quickly, as I grab them and walk out, closing the door behind me. "Okay I got the tools." I say as I walk back into my new room. "Alright now who knows how to work a power tool?" Jess asks looking between me and Shannon. "Wait are you telling me you two don't?" Shannon asks confused. "Yep. Neither of us do." Meghan answers. "Then why do you have this?" Shannon asks again. "In case Amy needs to fix something for us." Jess laughs. "So do either of you know?" Meghan asks. "Do you Als? Because I don't." Shannon laughs. "Um no, but I guess I could give it a try." I answer, picking up the drill. "Are you sure, because we could always ask Amy to come and help us." Jess states, looking at me cautiously. "Yep. I've totally got this." I say, walking over to the unassembled desk. I pick up two pieces that are supposed to connect and put a screw through the holes. "Well here goes nothing." I mumble. Before I could even start drilling, Meghan yells. "Stop! You are not gonna hurt yourself over some stupid desk. I'm getting Amy." she says, walking out the door. Eh, it's probably for the best. "Ugh are you serious?" I hear Amy groan from across the hall. "Please!" Meghan begs. "Fine!" Amy answers. As Amy enters the room, I look down at the floor, embarrassed to have asked for something else. "Where is it?" she asks. I point to the corner where the desk is. She looks at the pieces and picks up the drill. She does it in record time and gets up. "Is that it? she asks. I begin to nod my head but Meghan starts. "Well being you're already in here, why don't you help us unbox some of Ally's things." "Fine." Amy answers and picks up a box. We are all putting things in my dresser and bedside tables, which I brought over earlier this week, as well as my closet. "Oh I gotta go Ally. Cari wants me home." Shannon says picking up her keys. "I will call you later." she finishes and walks out the door. Meghan checks her watch. "Oh Jess we gotta go too! We have dinner with your parents soon." Meghan tells her. "Will you guys be alright?" Jess asks us. I look at Amy and she nods. I nod too. "Bye guys! they say as they walk out. Once they leave I tell Amy, "You can go too. You don't have to keep helping." "No it's alright. I'll stay." she answers as she keeps unboxing. After a while longer of unpacking, I see Amy pick up a box with some very specific markings on it. "WAIT NO! DON"T OPEN THAT!" I yell as I run over to Amy. "Jeez! Calm down! What is it like your secret box of dildos?" She laughs. I feel my cheeks heat up as I become embarrassed. "Oh my gosh it is!" she yells. "Have fun with that Hills." she laughs again, pushing the box toward me. I grab the box from her and put it at the bottom of my closet. "Whatever." I mumble, getting back to my box. As Amy is putting things in my dresser, I hear her laugh, "Ooh fancy fancy." she says holding up a pair of lacey red underwear. I snatch them from her hand and put them in my pocket. She just laughs again. "I think I will unbox this one myself, thank you very much." I say, grabbing the box of underwear she was holding. "Well that was the last one." she says. "Oh. Well thanks for the help." I tell her, smiling. "Yeah well don't expect it to happen again." she says. "I'm going back to my room to take a nap." she says, and walks out the door. I look around my room. It looks pretty good except for the lack of a bed. I guess I will sleep on the couch tonight.

Ah! Yess. I've decided that I might as well publish a chapter as soon as I write it so here ya go! 1000 words! I'm not gonna lie, I'm pretty proud of this chapter. Ally is officially living there. Will Almy be a thing? Stay tuned! Lol. Bye! xx -Maddie
