Eliza's POV

"you're moving out!?" I hear my mum screech from the kitchen.
"yeah, It's not far" my brother says in a calm tone defending himself.
I can hear dad step in.
"he's old enough, sweetie"
"but-" mum starts to cry. "where? when? who with? how often can I see you?" she sobs harder.
"i found an apartment in the suburb with one of my friends, we are hoping to move in in the next few weeks"
"when will I see you?" she asks again, obviously distraught at the thought of not seeing her son everyday
"whenever you want, mum" he says with a slight sigh.
"Okay" mum sniffs "i guess that's alright"

I decide to make my way down for some food.
"sweetie" my mum says stifling years "Nate is moving out"
Nate looks at me clearly asking me to act like I didn't already know.
"oh!" I say excitedly "good on him, haha"
"when are we going to meet the roommate hey, natey" my dad puffs up his chest.
"soon, I'm meeting up with him tomorrow actually"
I grab a muesli bar and head back to my room when I hear footsteps running after me.
"hey, little sis" Nate says wrapping an arm around my shoulder "would you be able to do me a huuuge favour"
I nod and he proceeds
"would you be able to come with me tomorrow to meet him?"
"sure, but why?"
he looks down "I'll tell you tomorrow.."
"you're weird" i huff and he playfully punches me

-

I wake up to the sun piercing through the gaps in my blinds. I get up and shower promptly before changing into my outfit for the day- a rainbow tie dye shirt and black shorts paired with dirty-white Converses®.
'Is it too much for a first impression?' I think to myself as I look myself up and down in the mirror 'meh'

Before another thought, my door bursts open and in steps Nate.
"Woah" I shout shooing him out with my hands "what happened to a little bit of personal space in this country!?"
"hah, sorry, are you ready?" he says looking slightly sheepish
"you should know seeing as though you barged in, I could have been naked, but yeah, I guess I am"
"Great!" he shouts, a little too excitedly
-
The car ride was boring, we didn't talk much, I plugged into some music and went into my own little world
Finally, we arrived at a park about twenty minutes from our house
"A park?" I say questioning my brother
"yeah, well if he turns out to be a hoax, I don't want to be raped!"
"glad you're safe" I say chuckling
-
we wait at the park for a while until we see a boy walking towards us looking around my brothers age.
He was tall with a strong build and had golden brown hair that sweeped across his face
