"Mallory!" Maggie yelled.

"What?" I said startled. I had been staring at the album cover of the song playing. It was a bad habit of mine, I would just stare at it forever!

"We're here"

Oh

I jumped out of the van into the hot, muggy summer air. It was cooler than North Carolina weather, which was a relief.

I looked up at the massive building in front of me, it looked about 100 years old. I grabbed some boxes and stepped inside.

"Really?!" I heard my father say obviously frustrated.

"What is it?" I asked.

"The elevator isn't working, so you have to carry your boxes up the stairs," he explained.

"What do you mean? I thought you and Maggie would help me," I questioned.

"Nope I have to go to work, already," he sighed.

"Sorry sis I have to.....um.....I have to go......somewhere," Maggie explained.

"Wow thanks, remind me not to help you guys when your boxes get here," I said, rolling my eyes.

"Sorry kiddo," my dad said, "Here's the keys. Floor 10, Apartment 438."

My boxes filled the whole trunk and backseat.

This is gonna take a long time.

I grabbed a box from below all the others. I knew exactly which one it was. It was so heavy! I started up the stairs.
Why did it have to be on the 10th floor?! I was probably the weakest person in the world carrying the heaviest box in the world. With every step I felt like I was going to fall over. My hands were getting sweaty and the box started to slip.

"Mallory you can do this!" I encouraged myself.

That didn't work. The box tumbled all the way down the steps to the lobby.

"Ow!" someone called from the bottom of the staircase.

I ran down the stairs as fast as I could, hoping to reach the box before they saw what was insi-

Oh my god.

I looked at the person holding my box, which I hadn't sealed properly. They had blonde hair with brown roots, and was wearing a plain white T-shirt with jeans.

"I'm so sorry!" I said apologizing.

"It's fine," he said. I looked around at all my posters scattered on the floor.

"Got a little obsession?" he chuckled sarcastically.

Yep.

"Th- there my si- sister's," I lied.

He helped me gather the posters and put them back into the box.

"Thank you so much," I said.

"No problem"

"Um.....I'm....uh.....Mallory," I stuttered.
