The next couple of days you had not seen anything from Matt, Edd nor Tom. A reasonable and logical answer was that they probably weren't home. Obviously.
You yawned and threw yourself on your sofa. Landing pretty horribly you almost went face down onto the ground. ALMOST. Luckily you didn't fall and adjusted yourself to sit comfortably before turning the TV on, "and now, back to The Children" a voice stated. You grinned and threw your arms into the air, "fuck yeah!". After... observing your neighbours and seeing them watch The Children in the living room you had started watching it too. You couldn't blame the grown men. This show was awesome.
---
The program was over and you stood up and turned the television off. You scratched your head before walking over to the kitchen to take a soda from the fridge. Sitting down on one of the chairs beside the table you looked out the window, seeing the hot sun shine on... Boxman?
You watched closely as the caramel-colour haired in a red t-shirt, who was your suspect, talked to a blond guy in a purple sweater. They were standing in the front porch of house 25. You put the half drunk soda in the fridge again before quickly running out of your house, not even closing your door. You were NOT taking any chances. Quickly running up to him from back, the blond man noticed but ignored you. Well that was until you gripped Boxman's... not so fit arm?
"Who the fuck do you think you a-" you were forced to stop as the man you had spun around only had looked like mr idiot from behind and was actually a different person. He had a scared and confused expression and you instantly withdrew your hand from his arm, which was a bit bruised from your forceful gripping.
"Are you insane, woman?!" the blond butt-chin man backed away from you, the Boxman lookalike doing the same. "Shit. I'm so sorry! I thought you were someone else." you apologised, throwing your hands over your mouth in shock. Deciding that if you could be friends this would be a fun memory in the future you introduced yourself, "I'm [Y/N] by the way," giving them an awkward smile you pointed at your house, "I live in that house over there."
The blond spoke up, "Yeah I saw you rushing at us in 100 miles per hour in only your socks" he laughed out, mocking you. Looking down at your feet you saw that it was indeed true. You glared at him, "It was a misunderstanding". Red shirt smiled, "I'm Todd, and that's Mark" he nodded towards his friend, "We live here."
You looked behind him at their house, "Ah I see..." you said, "so you're roomates like that house beside yours. They are pretty nice people." You referred to Edd and his friends. "Yeah we don't talk about them here." Mark gave a small disgusted look. "Why not?" you asked, pretty shocked. "Eduardo isn't the biggest fan of them" Todd whispered, scratching his bruised arm. Figuring out that Eduardo probably was another roomate you took your shot and asked how many that lived with them.
"We're four. Me, Mark, Jon and Eduardo" Todd explained. You nodded, a bit shocked though, "isn't that maybe too many? I mean the guys next to you is only three". Mark furrowed his eyebrows and Todd gave you a confused face, "But they're no-" Mark was cut off by a voice that came from their slightly open door, "MARK, TODD! THE FUCK ARE YOU TWO?!" Mark scoffed while Todd tensed up. "We better scurry off" Mark chuckled and walked back to their house. Todd awkwardly laughed, "Helvete... angry much?".
You sighed as you watched Todd and Mark walk inside.
"Hey... [Y/N], was it?" you heard a familiar voice speak. Looking behind you there was a fence, and arms hanging on the pointy planks you saw Edd, your neighbour. You walked up to him, "Hey Edd." Glancing behind him you saw their red car back in the driveway, "where have you been?". Edd laughed and rubbed his head, "well you see..." he started explaining something about low on money and an army. But you were too focused on something you saw, a red sleeve going inside the door at 27. You hadn't seen the whole person but you instantly knew who it was. But after what happened with Todd you couldn't be so sure. Suddenly you were brought back from your thoughts when you heard a snap in front of you.
"Earth to [Y/N]?" Edd had snapped his fingers in hope of you to stop staring at his door. "Sorry, got a little lost in my thoughts." you said, awkwardly laughing. Edd nodded, "I was only wondering why you're in front of Eduardo's house," He drew out the said name, adding to the fact that these two didn't like each other. He looked down with furrowed eyebrows, "in only your socks?". You also looked down at your not so white ankle socks, "It's a pretty long and confusing story" you explained easily, looking back up at the confused Edd. "Alright...?" he said in more of a question. Suddenly you heard a loud pitched scream and another voice screaming after Edd, "EDD, WHY ARE THERE PENGUINS IN OUR LIVING ROOM?!"
Tom
Edd looked terrified for a second, "oh god" he whispered, "they're back". He started running back into the house, "Sorry, [Y/N], See you!". You only watched as you heard crashes and screams from inside the home. Slowly going back to your, now seeming to be boring, house you thought for a bit. Remembering what Matt had said the first time you got to know him you started to believe the fact that they may have a zombie buried in their living room.
