My brother and I moved in with his best friend James. James was a tall firm guy who was 18 and was a member of every sports team at his high school. My brother Lucas was also very athletic. He was a member of the soccer team and football team at Clear lake high school. He was 5' 7" with dirty blonde hair that swayed across his face every time he flicked his head. He was also 18 years old which meant he was 5 years older than me.
"Caroline!" My brother screeched from the living room, "Come move all of your stuff into your room!" Since James was 18 he had his own apartment which was fairly large with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. This meant I had my own room and bathroom because Lucas and James shared a bathroom.
My room however, was anything but small. I had a very large walk in closet and a big enough room to fit my queen sized bed, my white desk, a dresser that was comprised of 9 drawers, a full length mirror, and my purple frilled rug. I painted two of my walls light gray, one of them light teal, and the other was a smooth lavender.
After I finished bringing the last of my stuff to complete my room, I quietly strolled to the kitchen to get a snack. I opened the fridge, but the only thing in there was celery, carrots, and leftover corn. So I walked over to the pantry to find protein bars. James is a lunatic. "Hey Lucas! I'm going to run down to the store and get some food, do you want anything?" I had to get some real food. "Can you get me some cupcakes or something?" he screamed. "Sure!"
I walked into the grocery store and imminently got some BBQ potato chips. Then I got my brother a 12 pack of cupcakes. Then I went ahead and got myself some pudding. I was reaching down to grasp the box and this random dude ran into me. "Oh sorry!" he explained. "Are you all right?" "yeah I'm fine." I looked up to see bright green eyes and golden blonde hair. Then I froze. "Whats your name?" I eagerly questioned. "I'm Nick, and you?" "I'm Caroline." we exchanged phone numbers and said goodbye hoping we would see each other again.
I walked home and found my brother on his laptop, like always and I tossed him his cupcakes. "Thanks sis" "Anytime". I walked into my room and jumped into my bed. I took out my phone and read through my contacts looking for Nick and I texted him
Hey! what's up? it was nice meeting you today!
Then I tossed my phone onto my night stand but then heard my phone buzz. I quickly looked at it.
I'm doing good. we should meet up sometime.
