Chapter 3: The cookout
We were walking to my apartment still arm in arm. It was funny when we did one of those chorus line kicking things. It was hilarious when JJ started to sing Firework by Katy Perry.
"Cause baby you're a firework," he continued, "make them go oh, oh, oh," that was the breaking point and we all burst out laughing.
"Please JJ, stop singing. I'm serious, I'm going to piss myself," Hayden said still hysterically laughing. I was crying I thought it was so funny. I think I could tell who group clown is. After we all calmed down we decided that we could eat without JJ making us choke on our food. He's going to be the death of us.
We were eating and I asked, "So do you all live in the complex?"
"Yeah, we all live in the same area too. The one right across from you is Robbie and Ava's place diagonal from that is Hayden's place. We could just give you a tour and like introduce you to some people if you're up for it," she said taking a bite out of a cookie.
"Sure why not," I said excited to go around and see the other parts of the complex. When we were all done eating we walked around for awhile and I met like four people named Audrey, Jerry, Brayden, who is Hayden's fraternal twin and Grace. They were all cool and we were all pretty much friends now. We left them and all went back to my house and Robbie was giving me a piggy back ride, he may not be the brightest one at times but he was a sweetheart. It was over all an awesome night so far.
We were all in my room just talking for a while and all that. At some point we started to play truth or dare and Madison had to run down the sidewalk screaming like a maniac. It was an amazing night and then we had to say our goodbyes. "I'll see you guys tomorrow," I said as they walked away.
I set out my clothes for tomorrow and went to the back patio. I seen my mom was there smoking a cigarette. I open the door to outside and sat down in one of the chairs. "Hey sweetie how was your night," asked my mom.
"It was awesome," I replied happily.
"That's great hunny. See I told you, you would make new friends," my mom reminded me.
"Okay you were right. Do you want a gold medal," I laughed, "I still miss my old friends," I informed her. "I can still make enemies and with my luck it won't be very long from now," I said.
"Well you aren't wrong about that but you're a nice girl and you shouldn't make enemies," she said.
"You know that if somebody messes with me I'm not going to just sit there and take it," I told her.
"I know hunny. Well it's ten-thirty. I think it time for bed don't you," she said. I nodded too her and said goodnight. I went to my room and set my alarm and got ready for bed.
Tomorrow was going to be weird. I've been here for two days and I already have friends and know a ton of people. Tomorrow I'll probably make more friends. I'm glad that I made a good first impression and have cool friends. I looked at the clock and an hour had passed, I drifted into a dreamless sleep within minutes.
