Twyla Stevens is a normal 20 year old girl. She has big dreams, a best friend, and an enemy. What happens when she moves in with her best friend, Jake Matthews, and they end up falling for each other?
Closing up the last box of my stuff I plop down on the floor. I still can't believe I'm going to share an apartment with my best friend. I pull my phone out of my pocket to check the time.
Almost 3:30. Jake will be here soon. I put my phone in my pocket and get up. I pick the box up off of the floor and take it to the living room. I set the box on the floor among the other five boxes.
I go to the kitchen and grab a water. There's a knock on the door as I take a drink. I pull my phone out of my pocket and check the time again. Jake is early. I put my phone in my pocket and place the water bottle on the counter.
I jog over to the door and slide the lock. As soon as the door is open I'm wrapped into a hug. "Aren't you happy to see me?" I laugh as he lets go. "Yes! I can't wait to get you moved over there. I'm so glad that we're going to be house mates." Jake says grinning "I can't wait either. We're going to have so much fun. Are you sure this isn't going to be a problem with Jenna?" "This isn't going to be a problem with Jenna. We're just friends. Best friends in fact. If she has a problem with you living in the extra room of my apartment, then I'll talk to her. Don't worry, okay?" "Okay. Let's get me moved!"
Working together we get all six boxes loaded into his truck in a total of three minutes. I load my suitcases into the back of my car. I grab my purse off the counter. I make sure I have my car keys and the apartment key before walking out the door and locking it. "I'll meet you there. I have to drop the key off in the main office." I tell Jake as I open my car door. "Okay." He says as he hops up into his truck. I let him pull out before I backup. I drop the key off and pull out of the parking lot. It's going to take thirty minutes for me to get there, so I turn on the radio.

I pull into a parking space a door down from my new apartment. I get out of the car and grab my bags. I lock my car and head towards the door. I open the door and just for the fun of it, I yell out "I'm home"!
Jake appears and shows me around. We unload my boxes from the truck and put them in my room. "I'll start dinner, you unpack." Jake says when we set the last box on my floor. "Okay" I say over my shoulder as I start opening boxes.
