Chapter one
Lux's Pov.
I look around my barren room. 'I guess I have to leave at some point!' I thought. I grab my camera from my bag, feeling a weird sense take over me, and pressed record.
"Hey guys I'm finally moving!" I point the camera around the room,
"All I have to do now is go there! See ya then!" I pushed the pause button, ending it, and feel the feeling evaporate.
Why am I so fake? Sighing, I grab my bag and walk to the living room. Approaching the back of the couch, I tap my parents shoulders.
"It's time for me to go Mum, Dad." I say quietly.
Mum hugged me tightly and responds with, "Good luck honey, and promise me that you'll at least try to warm up to your roommates?"
Looking straight into her accusing eyes I say, "I'll try Mum, I promise."
Hearing my alarm I look at my Dad.
He smiles,"Good luck son, stay out of trouble. You hear?"
Laughing I nod, hug him and head out the door. "Bye Mum! Bye Dad!" I wave, and go into my car.
Just as I was about to start the car, Dad runs out of the house.
I stepped out of my car and face him.
"Son, I forgot I had one more thing I had to tell you. Be careful about your hybrid side most people don't like your kind." He cautions me.
I almost forgot... I'm the only hybrid in my 'family'. And for some reason my hybrid is the most feared.
"Thanks Dad, I'll be careful." With that he gave me one last hug and went inside.
'Here we go...' I thought nervously.
An hour later I'm parked at the tower. I take my phone out and turned on the camera app. I face it twords me, looking at myself glumly.
I don't even know how I'm going to try to keep that promise to my Mum.
I tap my Android's right circle and swipe everything, to save battery, and put it in my bag's pocket.
Pulling out the camera, my mask plasters over me and I hit the resume button.
"Hey guys! We are here, safe and sound! Let's go meet our flatmates!" I smile falsely, I hope there here already. I don't mind being last, as long as there not mad that is!
I hit the pause button, again, and step out. Shutting the door, I grab my bag from the trunk, deciding I'll get the boxes that are in my car later.
I head up the tower,taking the stairs to get more exercise. Reaching the fifteenth floor, surprisingly not out of breath, I try to find my key.
After five minutes I give up, and was about to knock on the door when someone taps my shoulder. I swear I jumped a good five feet, I'm surprised I didn't hit my head on the ceiling.
"Hey, you must be Cal, right?" The man inquired.
I got a good look at him and realised who it was. "You must be Harry, yeah, I'm Callum or Callux." I stated. I stepped back and gesture to the door.
He nods and unlocks it then tossed me ... My keys...
"Saw you looking for them," he responds to my questioning glance. "Saw them next to the stairs and noticed it had our door number." He states, going inside.
I nod and entered after him, I'm met by an amazing flat. I go down the 'T' hallway turn right and am met with two doors, the right one is open so I go through there and am met with the living room and kitchen. 'Wow...' I thought. Great view, lots of room, and a decent kitchen! How am I so lucky to be in this flat with two great guys?
"I should probably ask if I can record this later," I mumbled. "Hey Harry, did you already pick out you room?" I asked.
"Yeah, so did I. Last one here gets the last room." I heard behind me.
"What the hell is it with people creeping up behind me today?!" I say unintentionally.
The guy, who I recognized as Callum or CalFreezy, started laughing.
I playfully glared at him but it didn't seem like he realized I was joking...
"I'll go check out my room now, I don't want to enter either of your rooms though so can you tell me where it is?" Damn, why do I sound like a total prick?
"Umm sure... Follow me." He leads me to the door across from the kitchen. "This is yours. Would you like some help getting your boxes up here?" He asked.
"No, I'm good." What the Hell Callux?! Some of those boxes are hard to move! And why are you being such a prick?!
Cal just nodded and left, presumably to his room. I would to if I was stuck living with someone like me.
I look around my barren room and realized something.
I have to get my dresser and bed up here...
Fuck.
Freezy's Pov.
Ten minutes ago
As I'm waiting for Harry to come back, and our other flatmate. I get bored and go to Callux's channel and click on the latest upload. BEST PICKUP LINES it reads before carrying on to the video. Throughout the video I realize two things.
One. I don't know anything about the guy.
And
Two. This guy might be an actual twat!
Hoping my second thought isn't true I think about my friendship with my two flatmates.
Harry, I would say I'm good friends with.
Cal though? I don't know him in the slightest.
I hope I won't regret this...
As the video goes on Cal winks at the camera and for some odd reason I feel butterflies. I play that part one more time for confirmation and I got even more butterflies.
I close my laptop staring at the wall, questions racing through my head when I get cut off by a door closing.
Harry must be back!
I go and check the living room and see see someone look out the window and he says, "Hey Harry, did you already pick out you room?"
Oh, It's Cal!
"Yeah, so did I. Last one here gets the last room." I answer.
"What the hell is it with people creeping up behind me today?!" He says, I don't believe he meant to and I laughed.
He just glared at me, wow... I'm just laughing. He doesn't have to be such a Debby downer.
"I'll go check out my room now, I don't want to enter either of your rooms though so can you tell me where it is?" Oh... My... God... I'm living with a stuck up prick...
"Umm sure... Follow me." I say leading him to the door across from the kitchen.
Maybe he just worded it wrong? That happens sometimes.
"This is yours. Would you like some help getting your boxes up here?" I questioned.
"No, I'm good." He states.
Wow, not even a thank you. I'm going to regret this move.
So.... Much.
I left to my room so I can edit my videos.
Lux's Pov.
Present
I sigh, and lock the door of my room.
Letting my Kitsune features out I sit in the corner. I separate my tail into nine, reform it to one and back again for three minutes. While doing that I have thoughts racing through my head.
How am I going to get some of my boxes up here from the car? Maybe I can use some of my strength... I'll just let my ears stay and put a hat on!
Perfect.
I stand up, hide my tail(s), and grab a hat from my bag. I walk to my door, unlock it, and stepped out. Keeping my eyes down I start to walk out of the flat. I pass Harry and Cal, who where talking but stopped when they saw me. I stop, wave, and leave the flat.
I go down the stairs, it's faster, and go to the parking garage that the tower has. I take my keys and unlock the car then put my keys in my front pocket.
I open the back right door behind the driver's side and grab the two heaviest boxes. Stacking them, barely able to see, I head back up using the elevator.
I reach the fifteenth floor and walk to Flat 1593. I push my elbow on the handle and find they locked the door.
Carefully, I put the boxes on the floor and grab my key. I unlock the door and open it so the don't have the chance to lock it again. The door slams open, "Sorry!" I call out.
Grabbing the boxes, I walk through the doorway and walk untill I see a dead end and turn right. I walk seeing a dead end again and turn my head left.
I hear a tap on the box and quickly open the door and put down the boxes, pushing them in and shutting the door. I look to see it was Harry, "What's up?" I ask "How heavy are those boxes?! He asked bewildered.
"Umm do you... Wanna try to move them? Im used to that weight so I couldn't really tell you." I say.
"Hey Freezy! Come here and try to lift this box!" Harry yells out. I just awkwardly opened my door and waited for Freezy. The two walked into my room and I lifted one box off of the other. "Harry, why do you ask how heavy they are?" I inquire.
He replies,"I got trapped behind them and because it was crushing me I tried to push them but I couldn't."
My eyes widened at that statement. There is barely any room between my door and the wall so that must have been painful. "I'm sorry Harry," I say, sympathy in my voice. But the two YouTubers just look at me with startled glances. Did it sound sarcastic?
"This box is lighter" I say pointing to the box on the left. I see them going for the right one. Oh, that's not a good idea...
They lift the box about five inches of the ground and Harry's foot slides under. Oh, that's really not a good idea... They drop the box, the weight to much for them. We hear a sickening CRACK and then Harry screams. I rush over and lift the box, and placed it next to the wall. I see Harry about to try to stand and I push him back down. I take his foot and slowly take off his sock to the middle of his foot.
I hear Cal and Harry talking but I don't know what they are saying, to focused on the task at hand. I slowly put his foot down and rush to get some ice.
I come back to my room and put the ice on his foot. I secretly used my healing magic. And took the ice off. I take Harry by his shoulder and lift him up so he was standing.
By this point there just staring at me. I let Harry go and his no longer broken foot takes his weight well.
I take a step back, shake my head and asked "What where you guys saying?" That must have been the worst decision ever because they gave me a hard glare and I had to try my best not to flinch.
"How did you heal my foot?" Asked Harry "Honestly I just did what my Mum did when my foot was shattered a week ago. That's how I knew it would work." I reply. He just nodded and they walked out. I opened my boxes, which held my DJ and computer set ups. I was able to put them each in one box which was why it was surprisingly heavy.
I went and got the last two boxes in my car, which held my clothes, and after I checked to see when the movers where going to be here.
Ding
Speak of the devil! I opened my phone and saw I got a text from them.
Movers
Hey Cal! Look, we have a hole in the truck and we can't move
until it's fixed. 21:00
Sadly that's not going to be until 5:00 so we hope that you have
a nice day. 21:00
Me
Okay thanks for
the heads up. 21:01
I sighed. Great, I'm not going to be able to sleep in a bed tonight. I'll just sleep on the ground tonight. I leave my jeans and sweater on, take my hat off and release my tails I lock the door, shut off the light, and try to head to sleep.
I stare at the wall, my eyes closing slowly until all fades to black.
Phionex out~
