Shit. I had to run home and make myself look presentable. I speed-walked outside of the school, hopping on my bike. I threw my bag over my shoulder. I pedaled home, pulling into my driveway. I wheeled my bike into my garage. I took my bag off my shoulder, holding it. I walked in the back door. My mom was washing dishes.
"Oh, hi, y/n! How was your first day? Did you make any friends?"
"It was good. Yeah, I did.. I'm going to hang out with them tonight, is that okay?"
"It's a school night.. But I suppose it's alright."
"Thanks, mom."
"Your brother has some friends over, be careful where you change." She laughed.
"Alright, mom." I was desperate to see who my brother's friends were, so I walked back into the hallway where his bedroom was. I opened the door, poking my head in. "Hi, Matthew."
He was sat in a circle with 5 other boys. They all looked at me. They were playing dungeons and dragons. My brother was a geek.
"Hi, y/n." He gave me an angry stare. "We're kinda busy."
"Right, I just wanted to see who your friends were."
"Hello, miss." One of them said. He was short, and had curly dark hair.
"Hi," I replied.
"Matthew, why don't you introduce all of us to this.. lovely lady." He said, smirking.
"Sure.." Matthew said, rubbing the back of his neck. "Um, that's Neal." He gestured to the guy who had just spoken to me. He went from left to right of him in the circle. "Bill, Sam, Gordon, and Harris."
I smiled, "Hi everyone. I'm y/n." I looked at Sam. "Are you Lindsay Weir's brother."
"Uh, yeah, that's me." He chuckled nervously.
"Your sister is cool. I'm gonna hang out with her and her other friends tonight. I'll tell her you say hi." I smiled, teasing him a bit.
"Okay, y/n. Have a nice time, bye!" Matthew said, standing up to close the door in my face.
I laughed, knowing I had achieved my goal of embarrassing him. His friends were total geeks. I walked into my room, sitting at my mirror. I put on a bit of eyeliner, making a small wing. I searched through my closet, finding a Led Zeppelin shirt. It was my brother's, who was in college. It was too big for me, but I put it on anyways. I put on some jeans, which I cuffed at the bottom. I put on some old, dirty, white sneakers. I brushed my hair, fixing it. I was confident that I looked good. I put on some light colored lipstick, smacking my lips and posing in the mirror. I opened my bedroom door, walking confidently out into the hallway. "Bye, Mom. I'll be back later."
"Okay, sweetheart, don't be home too late!" She smiled as I walked out the back door. "You look good!"
I hopped back onto my bike. Lindsay had told me Nick's address earlier, so I tried to remember it. I was very excited. I made friends who wanted to hang out with me! I arrived at what I thought was Nick's house. I knocked on the garage door. After a few moments, it slowly opened. Kim, Daniel, Ken, Lindsay and Nick were all in there. Kim and Daniel were cuddling on the couch, while Lindsay, Ken, and Nick sat on the floor near the couch, drinking pop. Rush blasted from the stereo.
"Y/n!" Lindsay called out. "Come in!" I stepped into the garage.
Nick pressed the clicker, closing it behind me. "What's up??" Nick couldn't keep his eyes off of me.
"Hey, guys. Cool garage, Nick."
"Thanks, y/n. Have a seat!" He patted the ground next to him.
I sat on the floor, my legs criss crossed. Nick leaned closer to me, whispering. "Kim and Daniel have been at it for a while."
