Chapter 2: Bosom Buddies

"Greta! Greta!" The voice repeated, who they was screeched to a stop. Gwen's jaw nearly dropped when she saw who it was. It was Lindsay. Lindsay was a busty blonde that Gwen knew from "Total Drama". Lindsay was a well-known contestant due to her ditziness, her forgetting of people's name with the exception of her boyfriend Tyler, and her hourglass figure. "Greta! It's me!" Lindsay said, out of breath.

Gwen gave a warm smile and chuckled, "I know it's you Lindsay, and it's Gwen not Greta."

"Sorry" Lindsay tittered, "not good with names." Lindsay flattened her orange miniskirt. "So, what brings you to this part of Ontario?"

"I live in this town", Gwen droned.

"No way!" Lindsay cried, she hugged Gwen. Inadvertently putting Gwen's face in her massive cleavage. "We're like booby buddies!"

"Don't you mean 'bosom buddies'?" Gwen said in a strained and muffled voice, she pulled herself free of Lindsay's hug. She cleared her throat, "So, uh Linds. What brings you here, in this place in Ontario?" Lindsay contained herself and answered, "me and Brianna moved here, to this big... house" she stretched her arms to emphasize how big.

"Brianna?" Gwen said puzzled,

"She's a surfer, has blonde hair like me and she's a vegetarian." Lindsay stated matter-of-factly, but Gwen knew who she was referring to.

"Oh... you mean Bridgette! I thought she lived in British Columbia."

"She did, but me and her moved to this cute little town."

"Uh-huh" said Gwen,

"We now live in this gorgeous big house! The guy who owns it is very sweet, I think his name is Cory or Kobe." Lindsay chirruped. "Want to hang out later?"

"Mmm... no thanks, Linds." Gwen politely declined,

"Ok," Lindsay said, "if you change your mind, it's 2049 Hazelnut Street"

Gwen nodded, "2049 Hazelnut Street, got it. I'll remember it." Gwen was about to walk back to her house, until Lindsay stopped her.

"Want me to give you a lift?"

"No thanks, Lindsay. It's alright." Gwen politely declined.

"Okay. See ya!" Gwen, with her shopping bag turned around and left. As Gwen headed back towards her street, she saw Lindsay in a red pickup truck driving towards the same direction she was in. Silly Lindsay, I already told her I didn't need a ride, Gwen rolled her eyes. But Lindsay's truck zoomed by Gwen leaving her stunned. Gwen saw the truck drive off and headed towards the street that lead to her neighborhood. What is Lindsay doing? That's my neighborhood! Gwen thought crossly, then it dawned on to her. Wait a minute! Hazelnut Street is IN my neighborhood! Dammit! I could've gotten a free ride! Argh!

Gwen now upset with herself slowly walked towards her neighborhood, when she entered her neighborhood she walked to her house on Cleveland Ave. It was a small white house with an one car garage, and a green roof. A black number 51 was on the garage. Gwen got her keys from her pocket and unlocked the door. The house was quiet, the wind blew and rustled the house plants. Gwen closed the door, her footsteps clomped against the floorboards. The kitchen was empty, Gwen put her ice cream in a freezer. Gwen put the ramen on the counter and looked around. Usually on the couch her mom would be knitting while watching the house buying channel and her brother will be playing video games in his bedroom.

Gwen walked through the hallway, the walls were a beige sandy color and the floor was soft carpeting. She then entered her room.

Her bedroom walls were a turquoise color that nearly blended in with her hair. Her bed had black sheets, her blankets were a dark magenta. There was a computer on a wooden desk. On her dresser was a terrarium that had her pet lizards Angus & Vampyra. On the walls there were posters for death metal bands. Gwen plopped herself down on her bed.

Her room was silent as a church mouse, the faint sound of the tick-tocking of the clock in the kitchen. The gentle breeze from outsides moved the branches of the tree in her backyard and leafs fell onto her roof. Gwen let out a long sigh.

An voice in her head spoke to herself,

"Feeling lonesome? I get that a lot." Gwen felt repulsed, "now if you had friends around you, you wouldn't feel so down in the dumps." Gwen sighed, she reached to her pocket and grabbed her phone. She put in the coordinates for 2049 Hazelnut

Drive, to her surprise it was a few blocks from her location. Gwen got off her bed and grabbed her house keys, and ran out of the house.
