Eventually me and Garrett's moment was gone, we had to film the video Shane wanted us to film. he did ask me if I was okay with filming, which i am. it's just going to be weird to do it for the first time.
"so you're like, okay right?" shane asked. I nodded and shrugged, grabbing and a&w creame soda from the fridge. "i'll just be out of a phone for a while, i mean i would be killed right now if my mom were here to see that my phone just took a swim." Shane laughed a little. "I have my old 5s if you want to use it while you're on our wifi maybe?" I smiled and shrugged. "Sure." Ryland ran upstairs and grabbed it for me, "it's already been reset and everything. so you just need to charge it." I smiled.
"Thanks guys, this means a lot."

I was scrolling on my instagram feed when Shane came up to me with Andrew filming. "Hey guys, so this is ASTRID!! I've known her forever, and she'll be living with us for a while, so Astrid, tell them some things about you!" He smiled and laughed. "I really want this to be like a documentary of our childhood. I mean we didn't have much of middle school together but we had like...half of sixth grade maybe?" I laughed. "Yeah. I missed you, a lot." I looked at Andrew instead of the camera. "Well i'm pretty boring other than the fact that I love music, i love the internet, and i have way too much free time. " Shane laughed a little. "HUNTY AINT THAT US ALL"
I laughed as he tongue popped.

Eventually I got used to the camera and we started talking about the real shit that went down in middle school that half year of sixth grade.
"Yeah, I think we were both really bullied a lot. I just kinda evened out, i haven't lost any weight, in fact, i think i'm gaining." i admitted, eventually.

We filmed a little bit more then we decided that it was time to call it a day. I walked into the room that was mine and sat on the bed, looking in the mirror, looking at my features. all these years and i still couldnt love myself, no matter how skinny i looked.

i said bye to everyone when we decided to call it a day, so now it was just me Shane and Ryland here. i left a small lamp that was on the desk on and decided to get on my laptop, watching youtube at four am.

when it reached around four thirty, i knew Shane would be asleep by then. I quietly went into the gym room and turned on the running machine, and started running. i didn't even bother turning on a light because it would make it so damn obvious that i was up if a light was on.

i got distracted when i felt a hand on me and it scared the hell out of me and i fell off the running machine, making a hard thump, along with me screaming "fucking shit." at the top of my lungs.

I heard footsteps coming down the stairs as i was getting up and rubbing my entire right side, as if it would make it feel better. "Astrid, what the fuck are you doing up at five in the fucking morning? I have to get up in like an hour and a half!" Ryland asked. "Sorry, I just couldn't sleep." I respond, kind of hurt by Ryland's words. He walks off and I hear his footsteps go up the stairs.

I sigh and realize this room is the haunted room in Shane's house.  I sigh, and walk back into my room and lay in my bed, fully dressed. I cry myself to sleep.
