Good Seeing You Again (You Me At Six Fan Fiction)

Chapter 2

I finished unpacking half of everything I own, with great difficultly due to my room being too big for me which I’m not complaining but I have too much space. I don’t like space. My clothes are all in order in my walk in wardrobe, including a massive shoe rack which takes up one whole wall. Just an excuse for me to buy some more converse and vans then, seeing as I only have 10 pairs; 6 converse and 4 vans. That’s it for shoe-wise.

My clothes rails are looking bare which means shopping. Yay. Note my sarcasm there. I hate shopping. Full stop. Apart from Internet shopping, this involves not leaving your home, nor the warmth, nor your pajamas which is always a good thing.

I don’t really own any jewellery to be honest apart from a necklace which is a music note. My name with 3 kisses underneath engraved on the front in fancy writing and on the back ‘Forever and always’. I always wear it no matter what, I just can’t recall where I got it from or even if it was a present from somewhere. My parents always say ‘Oh, it must have been a Christmas present from a family member or a friend’ then quickly changes the subject. It feels like it has a special meaning behind itself which is probably the main reason why I never take it off.

“LUCIE!” I heard my mum’s voice call from one of the many rooms outside my room. Great, wonder what I’ve done now... I should really get changed out of my pajama shorts and oversized one shoulder Green Day jumper, but at least I have an excuse. You try moving box after box from the van up 2 flights of stairs and then putting everything in its place in black skinny jeans, a Blink 182 tank top and my favourite Disney jumper – which includes a picture of Pluto on the front.

“Yes dearest mother?” I shouted back while going down the stairs. I knew I should have got changed, why didn’t I? An old-ish, fairly handsome man, an old-ish pretty woman, a beautiful young lady and a drop dead gorgeous young man was standing at the foot of my stairs all staring at me along with my mum. What a wonderful first impression to this family.

“Lucie, meet our neighbours, the Franceschi family.” Mum smiling up at me. This just gets better and better by the second.

“Umm… Hello neighbours… I’m Lucie, as you would have already known as my mum’s just said my name. Oh dear I’m waffling on. Sorry.” I felt my cheeks glow a vibrant red as I went on. As I said, this just gets better and better by the second. I could hear a slight giggle come from one of the males while I was looking at the pattern on my slippers.

“Aww, you’re a cutie! Hello Lucie, I’m Elissa.” My head shot up as soon as I heard the ‘aww’ comment. It was the young lady, now known as Elissa. Pretty name.

“Hi Elissa, wow, you’re so pretty.” Have I just really just spoke my thoughts? Fuck.

“She is indeed, but I must take all the credit considering she takes after me,” I take it that’s her father then. He had a cheeky grin a crossed his face with nudging Elissa’s arm. He certainly has a sense of cheekiness, I’m going to get on well with him and I couldn’t help let out a giggle to his first comment. “Hey Lucie, I’m Alex, it’s a pleasure to meet you.” and in the process of saying that, he did a little bow. Aww, now that’s adorable. I feel like I’ve already met this family before.

“Aren’t you a charmer dear. Hi love, I’m Ann,” So that’s the mum then, I like her already, she’s nice. “I hope you’ll enjoy living in Surrey, well we certainly like it and I hope you do too. Anytime you feel lonely, due to your parents travelling, just come over and have a coffee. It will be a pleasure to have you.” Wow, I definitely like her.

“Thank you Ann. I’ll keep that in mind.” I responded with a smile. I let mum take them on a tour around the house while the young boy and I stayed awkwardly in the same place. He has grey skinny jeans on with a few rips on the knees, a plain white top and a black hoodie half zipped up on. He had bright blue eyes, a dark brown colour hair which looked like bed hair but sexy bed hair and bright purple socks on. Aww.

“Umm hi, I’m Joshua, but you may call me Josh; my parents mentioned something about you starting school next Wednesday. If you like… I could show you around, but that’s only if-”

“That would be great thank you. That’s if you don’t mind either.” I smiled at his shyness. Aww, he’s so cute. At least now, I’ll know one person at school. Josh’s eyes suddenly grew bigger along with his smile. Take that back, he’s super cute. I hope we become friends.

“Nice outfit there sweetie.” Josh managed to say without cracking into giggles. I jumped off the third step and playfully punched him in the arm.

“Hey! You try carrying boxes twice your weight up and down 2 sets of stairs and then unpacking then repeating in skinnies and a thick jumper and I still have millions of boxes left.”

“Deal.” He simply stated and started the walk towards the front door. Was he doing what I’ve just said to do? Macho man came back with 2 big boxes on top of each other. Well that’s my question answered then.

“I was joking but you can live here if you’re going to be this useful.” I giggled while slapping his bum on the way up the stairs which included giving him directions to my room, of course.

*Josh’s P.O.V*

She's still cheeky. Even though I was strong and handsome enough to carry 2 of the boxes up for her, I still needed directions to her room. It wasn’t like I knew this house of by heart was it?

“Hmm then you shouldn’t say things you don’t mean...” I grinned and quickly turned my head to wink at her.

“Oh okay then, I like you Joshua and I hope we become good friends… Oops I forgot, I’m not meant to say things I don’t mean.” She said smugly along with a returned wink.

“Cheeky bitch.”

“Oh no need to worry because I know I am, but you wouldn’t change me for the world.” I felt her hand slapped my arse while I bent down to put the boxes down. How could I of let her get away with 2 slaps to the arse?

“Josh! Get off! OH MY GOD! I swear I’m going to die from laughter! Josh get off me!” Like I said ‘How could I of let her get away with 2 slaps to the arse?’ I was sitting on her while tickling her to death. Oh, we’re going to become good friend.

Just like we were.

I missed those days massively…
