Outside is filled with the late summer. Not as much heatwaves, or clothing that revealed. Even then, it would still be called summer. It's just being lazy as some may say. In other words, fall was close. Or some may argue that it would be called autumn and say you're still stupid, but that's another story.
Here, you can drive on a sturdy road by truck. The truck was meant for moving families as it seems by its structure and size. Inside was obviously a family that's moving. However, the summer was dropping quicker than expected, for that the final destination was into the mother nature rather than the advanced civilization of modern times.
Inside, there was a family of three. Though, it had been raised to four because of an abandoned friend. Two parents in the front of the truck, seeming pleased from the scenery outside. Of course, the wealthy enjoyed places like this. No one knows why for sure, but they like different conditions, than what most people want in their life. Then in the back, there were two teens. A boy and a girl. They looked completely nothing like each other, but they grew up as family. Though, on of them wasn't exactly blood-related. Just someone they picked up to take care of without following the rules of adoption.
"Hey dude," The girl had her knees rested on a stack of pillows. "Take a look at this place." Soon, he let himself wobbly walk over to the window.
"Whoa." His sea eyes stared out. "This place actually seems awesome! Look at all those trees and the colors on them are already changing!" His hand rested on the glass that separated them from the outside of where they were at. Driving up a mountain, and seeing evergreens or redwoods clumped together with the spotted warm leaf trees.
"Hey, I dare you to open the window." She turned at his direction.
"No way! It must be freezing!" He tugged onto his thinned jacket. From this response, her hands tossed a blanket at him as she creaked the window open a bit. Like he said, it was colder than where they had been before. The air gushed into the still of the truck, resulting in the quick shut of the window.
"Damn it's cold, looks like we're going shopping as soon as we get off this dumb truck." She wrapped a blanket around her crossed siting position. Her eyes gazed out into the morning scenery.
"Hey Beni, can I just ask a question?" Ceylan set his gaze at the window.
"Yeah, what?"
"What do you this place is going to be like? It's cold out there."
"...And isolated too." She added in as the the underground forest grew thicker as they passed by the scenery. "I don't really know. But all I have to say is that we have to find better shit to do than freezing in a pool." Her arms let the blanket envelop her. "Anyways, tell me when we get there."
"Don't you mean when everything's set up in the house?" Ceylan replied sarcastically.
"Of course."
"Well, that's the last of it!" A box dropped onto golden oak floors as Mr. Jones and Mrs. Jones waved off to the working men. "I'll get some papers signed first Dakota, can you show Ceylan and Beni into their rooms?" Mr. Jones then strode off to get the paper work done. As her husband left, Mrs. Jones walked over towards two teens sleeping on the cream washed couch. There her hands shook both shoulders as one stayed asleep, whole the bluenette starts to blink.
"...Five more... minutes-" Ceylan tried to pull over his hoodie.
"C'mon sweetie, we're at our new home now." Mrs. Jones tugged back his hood and made him sit up straight.
"You too." She gently removed the blanket from Beni. "I want you two to decide on your rooms and get your stuff. Just don't take the bedroom at the end of the left hall. That's the master bedroom." They both sighed from being asleep as they walked to explore the house. "We'll leave for lunch at 11, so make sure to be outside!"
Their blue eyes darted at each other as they suddenly ran for the best room in the house.
"I want the circle window!" Beni smirked as she had the faster feet and ran straight ahead the stairs.
"Hey! I called that!" Ceylan pointed out, speeding up his pace. Using the advantage of his gender's psychical genetics, he darted for a sharp turn and caught up with the girl who took a head start. The two then were at the same running speed in the hallway. Leaving them to shove each other out of the hallway path. They were at it for awhile and wouldn't stop arguing at each other for the rivalry over a bedroom.
Suddenly they crashed into the door and fell face flat on the floor. As they tried to get up to fight over the room, Mrs. Jones' face popped up from the doorway. "Oh, silly me! I forgot that your rooms were already picked." Ceylan and Beni then looked around the room; Pale peach walls, mint curtains at the windows, the floor they landed on had been charcoal patterned. The bed, as a deep coral rhombus and along the walls were modern pine shelves. A room.
That was definitely not Ceylan's.
"All that running for... This!" Ceylan gapped at the entire colors before him. He first looked at Beni, then at his mother. A sign of "Are-You-Kidding-Me."
"Don't worry Ceylan," His mother started to fade from the door frame. "Your room's next here. You get the balcony."
"Score!" Ceylan shot a fist in the air. As he ran out of the pink themed room.
"Anyways, you kids should just get your stuff arranged in your room. After that, it should be enough time for you guys to come down, so we can get lunch later." The woman's voice echoed down the stairs' hallway.
"That place was pretty good. Though, a bit too much on its anti-veggie dishes." Ceylan walked up the stairs with Beni.
"Honestly, the dishes were just basically all-out meat and nothing baked at least." Beni mumbled.
"The chicken was baked-"
"Don't make stupid jokes, I can't eat that much meats. I basically had buttered breadsticks and water. The only thing that made me full was that strawberry cake." The girl with the large shopping bags at hand pointed out.
"Well, we were stuck shopping." The bluenette said in a snarky tone. "That was the part for losers-" Before Ceylan could finish, he had been elbowed by the strawberry blonde.
"At least we won't be freezing our bodies in this place, it's way colder here than back where we were." She shuddered at the unfamiliar sight of the cloudy afternoon. "All the clothes we got look good too. Thank the Lime Parfait for that." Their conversation soon ended as they were at their rooms and they tossed all their bags in.
Entering Beni's room, Ceylan looked around the well arranged furniture. "Anyways, now that pretty much everything's settled and we just have to wait for some people to decorate and move the furniture around the house, I say we go look at this place."
Beni threw a throw pillow at him. "You know that this house is new you idiot. It's not a Victorian or a vintage." Ceylan tossed the pillow back at her. Trying to purposely hit her face. But it was just a pillow, so not that much harm done.
"I know, but take a look at this." Ceylan made his way towards the circular window. "That's the only thing that looks pretty undisturbed." His finger pointed down to the backwoods that they owned. "And also, we pretty much own all of those trees because it's basically part of the property."
"Eh... Sure?" Beni looked out the window. "We're just going to walk along the edge though. I don't think that place is the safest." She pulled over a nylon jacket as Ceylan left her room. Grabbing a pair of socks, she started to put them on, the steps up the stairs grew fast and louder-
"Change my mind! I do not want to go out there!" Ceylan barged into her room as if he saw a ghost.
"Why?" Beni asked, "I didn't remember seeing bears at the window or something-"
"Wolves." Was the only word that came from the frozen eyed boy.
"Okay, so that pretty much means we can't go out there." Beni threw off her jacket. "But wait," She looked out the window. "How did you even see them?"
"They're pretty active because I saw one run fast." Ceylan sat down on the floor. "But I swear, that is a wolf." Beni then gave a moment to think to herself.
"Guess it's going to be harder for me to find something to do when I'm at home." She rose from her rhombus shaped bed. "Anyways, do you want to bake some cookies before dinner?"
"Sure. My blood sugar's pretty low." Ceylan got up from the floor.
"That's an excuse to cram junk food into your body."
"Of course."
