Eddie's POV
"Mom! I don't want to move to this dumb place!" I yelled through the phone while sitting in the back of a taxi.
"Listen, I don't care what you want! Your dad asked me if you could stay with him for the summer and the next school year so that's what your going to do!" My mom yelled back and then quickly said her goodbyes and I love you's before hanging up the phone.
I sighed. I didn't want to go to Britain. I didn't want to go to Liverpool. I didn't even want to see my dad! This is going to be a long summer. But I refuse, to go to school here next year. I'm going to be a senior next school year and I don't want to graduate with a bunch of losers.
After getting lost in my thoughts the taxi finally pulled up to this house, which I assumed was my dad's. It wasn't half bad! It looked really big on the outside with multiple stories, maybe one thing wouldn't be a bust.
I paid the taxi driver, grabbed my stuff from the trunk and then went up to the door. This door unlike the rest of the house looked cheap. It was bright blue and had a weird door nob. I looked around for a door bell and when I couldn't find one I just knocked.
I head noises coming from behind the door and then the door swung open revealing my dad on the other side.
"Edison!" My dad yelled while running up to me and giving me a hug.
"It's Eddie." I replied while hugging him back.
"Oops sorry I'll remember that." He laughed and then stared at me in awe. "You've gotten so big!"
"Well it happens when you haven't seen someone in 10 years." I whispered not letting him here me.
"Oh where are my manners! Come in, Come in."
I walked into the large house and saw a gigantic living room. This room was probably bigger than my whole house back home. "Here is the living room it's where my parties are held." My dad said and I started laughing.
"Ohh look at you dad! Parties? Wow.".
"No, no. Not those kind of parties. Gatherings for my colleges at work, they're very fancy." He explained and I was a little less excited. That lead to the dinning room and kitchen, game room, and a couple bathrooms.
"Anyway let me show you upstairs!"
Upstairs was a little more my style. There were 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, and another living room.
"This living room is where you'll be hanging out if you want because the other one is out of bounds!" He laughed and then showed me my room.
"There are three extra rooms available besides mine, you pick your favorite while I go make us some breakfast considering its 10 AM" He said and then went downstairs.
I picked the room farthest from my dads. It was all the way down the hall. closest to the end of the house. Not only that but it was the biggest, it had a king size bed, two couches, a huge bathroom, and a walk in closet. My kind of room. It also was the only room with a window.
I quickly decided to take advantage of my window and move the curtains out of the way. I don't know what I was expecting, a sea side view? The woods? Nope it was a house. Our neighbors house to be exact and my window lead exactly to another window. The window was right in front of my bed so I can sit on it and look through it to see the neighbors bed.
I left the curtains open though, I also decided to open the whole window so when whoever lives in that room opens their window. I can talk to them.
I started unpacking my things putting my clothes in the closet, shoes on the shoe rack, and other things in drawers. After about an hour I was finally done and went downstairs to see what my dad was cooking.
In the kitchen he burnt everything. Everything someone was supposed to know how to cook just didn't apply to my dad. He was a horrible cook.
"Um dad. You don't have to cook for me I'm not even that hungry." I said making him stop.
"Oh Eddie I'm sorry! I usually order something would that be okay?" He asked.
"Of course! That's all mom does, how did you guys survive with each other?" I laughed and then sat down on one of the kitchen stools to hang out with my dad.
Once the food arrived it was around 1:00 so we ate our Chinese food and hung out in the living room upstairs watching tv, talking during the commercials. It actually was quite fun!
At about 6:00 our show just ended and my dad wanted to take me out to dinner. He took me to a really fancy restaurant and ordered a lot of food. I might actually like it in London.
When we got back to the house it was 10:00 pretty late for my dad apparently so he told me he'd see me in the morning and don't stay up too late.
When I got back into my room I went to look through my window to see that the neighbors window was open too. No one was in there yet so I decided to just wait and see if anyone would show up. I mean they have to sleep sometime.
After sitting there for around 2 hours it was now midnight. Right at midnight and I mean exactly at midnight a girl with dark red hair, wearing black converse, a beanie, a black tank top with the band sick puppies on it, and black tights slammed the door closed and stuck her middle finger out pointing to the door.
The girl sighed and started muttering words like "sons of bitches", "go to hell", "you can go kill yourselves" then grabbed her phone and headphones and sat on the bed
She was listening to music and singing very loudly. Luckily her voice was pretty good so it wasn't that much of a problem. She was also singing one of my favorite songs at the moment Girls/Girls/Boys by Panic! At The Disco
I mean what else could I do but sing along with her! Let me tell you, my voice is not great. Especially compared to her's but they kind of went well together. I think she heard me singing because she looked up to see me on my bed. Then screamed
YAY! okay this was pretty short I was going to make it longer but I thought that was a good ending for the first chapter and so the next chapter will be when they meet! Please leave a review saying what you think of the chapter, the story idea over all, and what things I should add to this story to make it better! okay bye and
