"Is this Charlie?" A sweet girl asked as her blond head bounced into the room. I smiled to see even in her heals she looked short. But I shouldn't be talking. For I was actually shorter than everyone here. Avi smiled and placed a chaste kiss to my forehead. "This be Charels." He joked. I gave a sarcastic grin as I looked up at him, he returned that look with his own. Kissing my lips this time, our noses bumping. "Awe!" A high pitched note squealed. I looked up to see a fairly short man walk into the living room. Just under Avi's hight. His black hair perfectly styled and his faze with a sizable amount of fuzz. The girl I know to be Kirstie walked closer and holds her hands out to me. I gradually entered them. We stood there for a moment. Hugging before the one man that I was almost scared to meat strides into the room. "Charels!" He says childishly as he walks over. I Crain my neck to look up at him and smile. I literally bends down to hug me. Lifting my feet from the ground and slightly rocking back and forth. "You know I'm short when you have to pick me up." I say as Scott sets me back down. "Yeah. Especially when your shorted than Kirst." He points out. "Aw. I love short girls." Avi says as he walks over and wraps his arms around my shoulders. "That's hard to find being 5,11." Mitch laughs. Making the rest of the room laugh. "Hey! I'm average hight!" I snickered at there childishness and how much I already felt at home with these people. I felt Avi's chest vibrate against my back as he laughed diligently as well.

"See you guys soon!" They shout after us as we enter out apartment, them dropping us off. Soon our feet hit the carpet of the home and we all smiled like fools. Today was a good day. I slipped off my shoes and walked over to sit on the couch. My body feeling heavy with sleep. But before I could even change my clothes Avi taps my shoulder. I turn to see him laying on the bed. His arms stretched out to me with a solum look over his face. I gave him a look and lay into his arms as he rested his head on my chin. "I don't mean to end the day badly. But I need to know what had happened. And why?"
