chapter 3 : my friend

When i woke up at 8 , i hopped in the shower and put my head under the water, closed my eyes and i just let the water fall down on my shoulders and back. I wipe my face with my hands to move the hair out of my face and then i heard a loud crash.

I turned off the water quickly and i grab my towel and wrap it around and then i grab the closest thing to a weapon , an umbrella . I walk slowly down the stairs to see who was in my house and it was cody and brody and some older guy standing in the front doorway.

"what are y'all doing in my house?'' i say while grabbing ahold of my shoulders.

"danny? this is your house?''cody said while covering his eyes and brody's.

"um were sorry , we just wanted to welcome our new neighbor into the neighborhood but we'll come back later.'' The older guy said while turning around and walking out.

"yeah , we'll come back later" brody then grabs cody and pulls him out the house and closes the front door after him.

I feel so embarrassed now , i ran upstairs fast and i went and threw on some clothes and put my hair in a bun, then i went back downstairs and grabbed an apple out the counter, then headed out to next door. When i got there cody and brody was sitting on there stairs and i went and sat in between them.

"well , now you know where i live" i laugh softly.

"you live by yourself? wheres your parents?'' cody said but then brody hit him in the back of the head.

"owww" he screamed out.

I laugh.

"yes i live by myself, parents died when i was young and i only had my grandmother but she died last year and left her house to me."

"well thats cool , well not cool that you have no one but its cool you get to live by yourself you know." cody says.

Brody hits him again in the back of his head.

"hey man cut that out " cody says.

"well , stop saying stupid stuff then" brody says.

"okay fine, but if you need a place to crash cause your lonely , we are just next door" cody says.

"i might just take you up on that offer handsome" i say while looking at cody and smiling.

"well i have to go now, i have some furnishing to do in my house'' I then get up from in-between them and i started walking down there pathway when brody called out to me.

"wait , danny " He then gets up and walks up to me.

"there's this party tonight at blake Carter's house, i would love for you to come and maybe i can help with your furnishing up until the party and then we could go together." he says not looking at me but looking at the ground  and fidgeting with his feet.

"sounds cool and yeah i might need those manly hands to carry something for me.'' i say .

I grab ahold of his arm and we began walking towards my house but then i stop walking when i see a unknown car in my driveway.

"hey brody , i forgot i have something to do before i furnish my house , ill call you when im ready.'' I say as i move away from brody and go towards my house slowly.

"okay see you later then.'' brody then turns back around and goes back to his house.

I walk up to the car and there he was my best friend for 4 years luke marsh.

"well , hey there danny,  you not stepping out on me now." He says as he steps out the car smiling.

I jump into his arms and he hugs me extremely tight and swings me around and then puts me back down on the ground.

"why are you here luke?'' i say as he release me.

"i came to keep you company , i heard you moved out of that old dingers place and well i didn't want you to be lonely so i hopped in my wagon and drove all the way here." he said.

"well im glad ,your the one here with me , come on in , ill show u to your room." i say as i walk towards my house door.

"okay let me grab my stuff.'' he goes to the back of his mustang and opens the trunk and grabs a big duffel out the car then closes it.

"come on now lukey , your going so slow." as soon as i say that he runs up to me and throws me over his shoulder and he goes into the house and drops his bag , i laugh then he drops me on the couch.

"am i going to slow now?'' he says as he tickles me on the couch.

I laugh so hard and then he stops tickling me and lays behind me and wraps his arm around me.

"i missed you luke" I said.

"i missed you to danny " He then kisses my head and he holds me tightly. We just lay like that for hours. I really missed him.

When i first ran away from dad luke was the one i ran to , he was my hero .
