Stay With Me Through This Darkness (Larry Stylinson)

Chapter 1

Louis pov

Nothing new ever happens here. It is always the same for me I get up and go to school and then I come right back home. All of the other kids in my neighborhood are either older than me or younger. I have never had anyone my age to hang out with. Everyday I wished that there was someone my age who would move in next door so that I had someone to hang out with but I never thought that would actually happen.

I was sitting in my room when the moving van pulled up. We must be having new neighbors move in next door. I was watching them unload the car when I saw a boy around my age climb out and start helping.

"Have you seem that we have new neighbors mama." I called to my mom as I walked into the kitchen.

"Yeah I was going to walk over some cookies and welcome them to the neighborhood if you want to come." She told me.

"Yeah let me grab my shoes and I will come with you." I called to her running up the stairs.

I found my shoes and I threw them on as well as a jumper because it was starting to get cold since it was October. I ran down the stairs and my mom was waiting by the door. When I got beside her she opened the door and walked out.

When we got to our neighbors house the moving truck was already gone. My mom knocked on the door and the kid opened the door.

"Hello. We live next door and we wanted to welcome you to our neighborhood. Can I talk to your mom?" My mom asked him.

He walked back inside and comes back with his mom. The two of them came out and stood on the front porch.

"Hi I am Johannah but you can call me Jay. This is my son Louis. We live right next door. If you need anything don't be afraid to ask." My mom said.

"Hey I'm anne and this is my son Harry. We just moved here and it is nice to know someone in the neighborhood. Would you two like to come inside for a bit." Anne asked.

"I can't I have work in a bit but I'm sure that Louis would like to hang out with Harry." My mom said.

"Well come on in Louis. Harry how about you and Louis go up to your room while I finish unpacking down here." Harry's mom said.

"Come on. I still have some unpacking to do but maybe you can help me." Harry said.

"Yeah I can help you. I happen to be very good at unpacking things." I tell him.

I waved good bye to my mom and Harry led me up to his room. There was a lot of boxes everywhere and there was clothes and other stuff thrown on the floor and the bed.

"I'm sorry that it's a mess I have not really gotten anything put away." He told me.

"That's fine. I can help you put it up while we get to know each other." I told him.

We got to know each other as we were putting his stuff away. It took us about two hours to get it all put away because we kept getting distracted. Once we finished we sat on the bed.

"So you never told me where you moved here from." I told him.

"Well I never told you because you never asked." He said. "I moved here from the UK."

"Well I get to be the first one to welcome you to the US." I told him.

"I have some family who live here in the US and they say that they love it but they live in California."

"Well you will love it here. How about this weekend we go out and I will show you around town for a little bit."

"That will be fun. I will have to ask my mom because we still have more to move in." He told me as his mom knocked on the door.
