It's times like these when life seems so......
'Unreal'
You see When night came I had finally unpacked and unloaded. and for a moment, just... a moment I felt okay.
*DING DONG* (like I said just a moment)
The doorbell had rung and I turned my head to the clock
it was 11:34pm 'Is that really the time? have I been doing this all night?'
*DING DONG*
The door rang once more. I quickly picked myself up and skipped down the stairs. When I reached the end of the stairs I scanned the room briefly searching for my dad, and there he was snoring, slouched back on the couch with a bunch of paperwork in his lap.
*DING DONG* it went again
I walked to the door and I could here voices on the other side. Both male and they were muffled but I could still make-out what they were saying.
"They're probably sleeping dude. It's late."
"Let's just wait a little longer."
"Dude. I'm tired." I could hear them stepping off the pavement
so I opened the door, and from that moment on I would never regret it for the rest of my life.
"Oh! uhhh.....I'm Dolan-I mean Grayson. Grayson Dolan," He blurted while shaking my hand. "I probably should've said 'Hi' first that was rude of m-"
"Ethan", The other boy said cutting him off "his confident slash good-looking slash twin brother."
"Hi I'm Y/N, Nice to meet you", I said shaking Ethan's hand 'Wow these boys are really cute. and there's two of them.'
".......so now that I don't think this can get any more awkward. what's up?"
"Right! uh well me and my brother just wanted to welcome you to the neighborhood.", Grayson said
"Oh! uh thanks?"
"you seem disapointed.", Ethan claimed
I giggled "well I mean usually when people welcome someone to the neighborhood they come barring sappy junk foods or invitations to lame parties.", I claimed crossing my arms and leaning on the door. "and plus you guys are too hot, standing at my doorstep a quarter till midnight.... so where are the cameras?"
"Yeah sorry I didn't know if I should have brought anything, because I didn't know if you were alergic-"
"Allergic to Graysons cooking, basically.", Ethan said cutting Grayson off once more "Wait you think we're hot?"
"THE POINT IS! Since we have no foods that just leaves one other thing.", Grayson said
"yeah we wanted to invite you to a lame party." Ethan smiled
"Cool" I said waiting for them to tell me when and where but they both just kept staring at me "uhhh sooo when and where?" I smiled awkwardly
"Uh yeah this Saturday 'be there or be square'....", Graysons eyes widen of embarrassment. "But we should ride together." he said changing the subject "Here I'll give you my number."
'smooth Grayson', I thought
"Oh! Okay." I took my phone out and gave it to him
And we traded back after the exchange.
"Great. Well I'll see you tomorrow- We'll see you tomorrow", he corrected
"Cool goodnight.", I said
"You too!", Ethan blurted with an embarrassed smile
I smiled and wove goodbye then closed the door.
"you too?", Grayson teased
" whatever old man. be there or be square" Ethan mocked
"shut up", Grayson said as their muffles faded from the door
I giggled 'strange? but cute.'
I dragged myself upstairs and planted myself on top of my bed. Everything seemed so 'fine'. and while I lay up, eyes wide, I had that feeling again. Like my mother was still here. like she was never ever going to leave me, like all the stars and forces couldn't stop us. Then my thoughts come back to me. I fall crash into reality so much that I just never see an end to this nightmare. and I retrace back and say
'wishful thinking.'
