79 Gradual readjustment

It's been three weeks since the eviction, and myself and Sal are moderately ready to leave the flat. We have plans as to where we are going move and its all pretty daunting. I'm moving out of a perfectly good flat, away from my best friend. Then again, I will be moving into a bigger place with my boyfriend...

Sally is moving into a flat with her ex-boyfriend... or her new best friend. I really don't know how I feel about all this. I suppose that they broke up on mutual terms and all. Their bond is improved now that they're adults and more mature to think that romance is more than just a word and that its an emotion.

Dan and Ryan both came over today to help us figure out what we can move into their flats and such. Ry and Sal are taking most of the furniture, and all that isn't taken is going to be donated to a furniture shop down the road.

"I am in fact lacking lost of furniture since Sam moved out. " Ryan says after about an hour and a half of packing and discussing.

"Furniture such as..." Sally say lifting boxes and pushing hair out of her face.

"A sofa, a table, and he took the furniture from his room- except his bed frame." Her says sheepishly. Dan walks back into the room with more boxes to pack things away.

"Hey," He says awkwardly. I hate how awkward he is around Sally and Ryan. He is well informed about why they originally broke up (me), and he's only award about this because of me.

[[ Okay this is where I left off and am now picking up to the awareness of Dan Howell being Queer. So. Things will be the same in the fic- but just know that I know. Thanks Nerds. ]]

We keep on packing away boxes and stacking them one atop another until the living room looks like it's a mess of a fort.

"I remember first coming here," Dan says sitting on a stool.

"It was after one of our earlier dates and it was showering rain. We ran into the building and you brought up here to dry off and wait for the rain to ease away." He says. I pull up a stool and sit beside him.

"I remember my first time seeing you here. I was lying in bed as sick as a dog. I woke up from one of my medicine induced naps and started throwing things at my door to try and get Y/N's attention -I wanted more water- and after throwing a boot at the door, you opened it. To my suprise." Sally says.

"My first time here is now. I'm still living in my first time." Ryan says.

"Apartment Virgin." Sally jokes. We all giggle and Ryan smirks and looks down.

If this was me from two years ago, I would have fallen at his feet with that smirk. But it's just not attractive anymore. I've got Dan. He's my guy. I'm moving in with him. And I don't mind at all. Well-

"I'm really gonna miss this place..." I say, my eyes get a little teary but I blink it off. Sally raises her eyebrows at me and sighs.

"Readjustment. That's going to be my demise." She says. Dan nods. Sally takes a sharp inhale and stands up.

"Anybody for wine?"
