Drive // Mitchel Cave

Chapter Seven ~ Neighbors

"I thought we were taking Hazel home?" Christian says confused.

"We are." Clinton chuckles

"Than why are we down here?" Christian questions.

"Because, she lives down here." Clinton says back.

"No fucking way!" Mitchel yells.

I'm confused and startled by the boys because of the way they were acting. Yes, I live in this neighborhood. I don't understand what's the big deal.

I texted my dad right before the boys dropped me off. Clinton stopped in front of my house with a smile on his face.

"No fucking way Haze! You live here!?" Mitchel proclames.

"Yah. I don't understand the big deal?" I asked them.

"We live right down the street! Right down there!" He said pointing to a tan, almost orange, two story house down the road.

"No way! We're fucking neighbors!" Christian exceeds.

Before I knew it, Mitchel came over and helped me out of the car, opening the door for me. I led him over to my dad who was standing at the end of my driveway.

"Dad, this is Mitchel, Clinton, and Christian." I said pointing to each boy.

"Guys, this is my dad, Kyle."I said introducing them to my dad.

The boys politely waved to my dad and thanked him for letting me come along to the mall after school. My dad walked over to their car and Clinton let him know that the house down the street was theirs. My dad thanked him and walked back up to me. Mitchel got back into the car and waved us goodbye. My dad and I waved back and they drove off.

We walked back into the house and I put my things down, walking into the kitchen, having my dad trailing behind me.

"They were nice. I like them." My dad said, smiling at me.

"Yah, they are quite cool. They're in a band too!" I told him while getting out a video of them covering "Where Are Ü Now" by Justin Bieber.

"That's really cool Haze! I'm so happy you made some friends today!" He said proudley.

I hugged him and whispered,

"Thank you for letting me hang out with them dad. I love you."

"You're welcome sweetheart, I love you too." He said, rubbing circles on my back.

I told him about my whole day. Who my teachers are, what I did today, and all the work I had. I told him about music class and he was so proud of me. He brought me back into an embrace and kissed me on the forehead.

I grabbed some food and headed upstairs, grabbing my things on the way. I opened my door, threw my bag beside my night stand and flopped on my bed, cuddling the hoodie. Even though it was to hot for a hoodie, I put it on and flaunted it. It made me so happy, and not because it was yellow, but because Mitchel got it for me.

I went onto Instagram and posted a picture on my story. I looked through the boys story and noticed me in a couple of them. I smiled at the lovely memories I made today. It made me have butterflies at how cool these people are and how they added me into their group.

I noticed that I started getting a little of a following. It didn't bother me though because it was only a small addition of followers. Then, it blew up! My likes, my followers, my DMs. It all just exploded! I got paranoid and saw that Mitchel posted the video of him giving me the hoodie. I thought it was so cute but now his fans were following me and I didn't know why. I just figured it was fan girls wanting to know everything about their lives so I let it go.

I had found a playlist full of Chase Atlantics songs and put it on. I danced around my room in the hoodie the lead singer had given me. I was quite upset that I hadn't been introduced to them before because they were quite good. I then came to the realization that "Into It" and "Church" were my favorite songs.

It got pretty late and I was getting a little tired. I showered and changed into shorts and a tank top then went to bed. All I could think about was today and how lovely it went. I could tell I was really going to love being around these boys. Especially, Mitchel. That boy with the braids.

Yay! A short chapter! Sort of... lol.

I felt like it would be so much more interesting if I made them live on the same street.

Sleep overs possibly? ;)

Anyways, let me know what y'all are thinking of the story so far. I'm always up for suggestions!
