"I missed you so much!" I say as I stand on the tip of my toes to hug James.
"I missed you too!" He laughs and picks me up off the ground a bit. I laugh, throwing my black adidas backpack over my shoulder and grabbing my suitcase with my other hand. Not gonna lie the suit case is probably heavier than me. I turn back to face James and the other boy who's awkwardly standing near him, silently.
"I'm y/n. Nice to meet you." I hold out my hand for him to shake it. He reaches out his hand and slowly looks up at me with his piercing blue eyes. He half smiles at me and turns away to leave the airport alongside James. I quickly follow behind them, dragging my suitcase along the tiled floor.
"So y/n!" James says, abruptly pulling me out of my thoughts. My head quickly turns to look up at him. "This is one of your new roommates, Alex!" I nod my head and smile at the boy as he pushes his hair out of his face. He seems quiet.
We get to James' car and he helps me put my bags in the trunk. I watch as Alex walks to the passengers seat with his hands in his pockets.
I just moved to England, from the states. LA became too much to handle and my best friend James finally convinced me to actually move near him. The way we became friends was actually very interesting considering it was while I was making a YouTube video called "prank calling random numbers" about 2 years ago. The numbers I dialed in turned out to be his number and we actually started talking after the video. We both talked about our YouTube channels and how we were familiar with each other's channels. He's visited me in California and vice versa. When visiting I'd stay at his flat due to only being there for a short period of time but since I'm moving, there is not enough room in his house. Luckily one of his friends that I recall being named George, offered to let me stay there.
"Do you want to get something to eat before I drop you two off?" James says looking back and forth at Alex and I. Alex shrugs and I nod my head yes. Never decline food.
"Can we go to Nando's??" I ask, remembering how that was my favorite restaurant the last time I was here. I see Alex's eyes light up from the passengers seat and I chuckle a bit.
"What? Nando's is fucking good." He whines which makes me laugh even harder considering this is the first thing he's said the whole time I've been here. He rolls his eyes and turns back around while James pulls out of the parking spot.
