Hey everyone! This is my first Drake & Josh fanfic. I've read others that I really really love and they inspired me to write my own! I really hope everyone likes it, and if you do, please review to tell me! thank you!
"What?" Drake Parker said aloud. He couldn't believe the news he just heard from his younger sister, Megan.
"We're gonna move!" she stated loudly.
"No! There is no way that we are moving!" Drake didn't want to leave this place. He had a great life: tons of friends, all the girls chasing him, and the best band.
As soon as the words came from his mouth, his mom and dad came into the room that he shared with Josh.
"Yes, Drake, we are moving," his mom said. Josh and Megan both new that it was no use to put up a fight. Megan didn't care about moving; she could make friends wherever she went. Josh did care, but he didn't really have any friends here anyway, so it wouldn't be like he would miss anyone. After all, Drake would be going with them and that was his best friend. But Drake, however, had to put up a fight. He wasn't just going to give away his great life without even a bother to try and save it from fatal destruction.
"No! We are so not moving! We can't move! Everything is here! My life is here! My band, my friends, lots of girls...!" Drake was yelling by now.
"Drake, calm down. We are moving and I'm sorry but you have to face the facts." Drake wasn't the best person to deal with change in his family. Everyone else didn't like the idea, but they went along with it. They knew it was Drake's job to at leat try and save them.
"But it's not fair! So not fair!" Drake said. He picked up his guitar case and trudged off to school. He never even asked when they would be moving.
"We've got our hands full with that one," said their father. Josh shrugged and left for school and Megan soon followed.
"Dude, that sucks," said Trevor, the drummer in Drake's band.
"I know. I don't even know when, butall I know is that my parents are being totally irrational about the whole thing. They won't even listen to why I don't wanna go. They have no idea how good my life is here!" Drake spilled.
"Yeah.." said Trevor. "But, hey, look at the good side, dude."
"There is no good side! You obviously don't get how bad this is!"
"You'll meet knew chicks," Trevor continued.
"Hmm... that's true..." Drake said. "But it's not the point! It's still not fair! They could have at least asked us how we felt about it first!"
The bell rang to eighth period.
"I've gotta get to class. See you after school," Drake said to Trevor as he swaggered down the hallway. Drake always had a way of being cool like that.
This is so boring, Drake thought as he sat at his desk in health class. No one cares about the stupid nervous system...
"Drake?" Drake looked up when he heard his name being called.
"Huh?" he asked.
"Drake, what is the answer?" the teacher asked him.
"To what?" He looked at the board and saw the question written clear as day. He felt his face turn a little red, but Drake never gets embarassed easily.
"Oh, uhm...the heart?"
"Very good, Drake, but maybe if you actually pay attention then you would have known the answer sooner," the teacher told him. Then she continued to teach the class.
Drake looked around the room. He saw all his friends scattered throughout their assigned seats and all the dorks that his possey made fun of. Even though his whole time being at this school he made fun of them with his crew, he was even going to miss them. I still can't believe this whole thing. It sucks. I'm moving! No...I can just stay...maybe I'll...run away and stay at Trevor's house. His parents won't notice, after all, they're never even home. Trevor's parents were the rock star type of people. They were into The Stones, Led Zepplin, and Kiss, and they were always out going to concerts and parties and stuff. I swear I think I was born to the wrong family. My parents were meant to be Trevor's and his parents were meant to be mine. That way, I wouldn't be the one whose moving!
The bell rang and school was over. Drake headed to his locker, which was only a few down from Josh's. He had to pass Josh on his way to his.
"Yo brotha!" Josh said as Drake walked nearer.
"Uh..hi Josh," Drake replied.
"You took off too fast this morning. Do you know when we're moving?" He emphasized the 'when' and Drake didn't like it.
"No...when?"
"Tomorrow!"
"WHAT!" Drake wished he had waited before he left. "You have got to be kidding me!"
"No, I'm not kidding. And guess where we're moving?" Josh asked again.
"Where...?" Drake dreaded an answer.
"New Jersey," Josh told him.
"Grrreat.." Drake was so bummed. He hurried toward his possey to go and tell everyone goodbye.
When Drake got home from his very depressing day at school, and after saying goodbye to everyone, he plopped down on the couch with a bag of chips. He flipped through the channels on T.V. and decided on watching Comedy Central. The doorbell rang, and after no one came to the door, Drake figured he'd open it.
"Hello, we're here to help your family move?" the man in the bright orange moving suit informed him.
"You..you are?" Drake was surprised. "Mom!" he yelled up the stairs. His mom came to the door and he sat back down on the couch.
"Drake, I think you should go pack. The men to move the living room furniture out first, and I don't want you get in theit way. Besides, you really do need to start packing. We leave early tomorrow morning!" his mom told him.
"Yeah sure, whatever," Drake said. He got off the couch and slunked up the stairs.
Josh was already in their room, packing up his clothes and valuable stuff. His closet was already empty and ready for the men in orange suits to load onto the truck. Drake pulled out a suitcase from the cupboard under his bed and dropped in on the bed. He quickly flipped it open. Then he walked over to his closet, pulled out most of the clothes that he could hold at one time, and just shoved them in any which way that they fit.
"Don't you wanna fold your clothes neatly?" Josh asked.
"..No," Drake told him. "The moving guys are here. I still can't believe this is really happening."
"Me either," Josh said. "But this might be a good thing. A whole new start for all of us."
"A good thing? Maybe for you, but I don't want a new start! I like the way my life is!" Drake snapped.
"Whoa chill out brotha! Didn't mean to insult you!" Josh said.
"Whatever," Drake mumbled as he continued his useful method of packing.
The worked on packing for a while and finally finished. The men made their way throughout the house, loading stuff onto the truck and finally got to Drake and Josh's room. They took everything out but their beds, and gave the keys to the boys' mother.
"Return the key to the station near your new house and they mail it back to us from there," one of them told her and she thanked them and closed the door behind them. It was pretty late, about 11 pm or so, and so Audrey (the boys' mother) made everyone in the household go to sleep. She said that she wanted everyone up bright and early the next morning and ready for New Jersey!
As Drake layed down for the last night in his bed, this bed that he would never sleep in again, he he many thoughts. After thinking a while he said to Josh, "Hey. Josh. You still awake?"
"Yeah, I am," Josh whispered.
"I know this sounds really corny but...I'm kinda nervous about starting a new school..." Drake told him.
"I know. So am I," Josh replied.
And with that, the boys both drifted off to sleep.
