You

Moving in Part 1

You were unloading a truck with all your boxes in it. You almost dropped the two boxes you were carrying because they were slipping, you plopped them on the ground with a groan.

Well hello there. Your cute. You have boxes; so you must be the new neighbor. I can deal with that.

your pov
You turned around when you heard someone say "here let me help".

"Oh no that's okay."

"I insist. I live up there anyway so it would just be a waste of a trip then."

You both laugh. "Really which one is yours ? And thank you so much." You guys start walking up the stairs.

"It's no problem and I'm in 4b."

"No way. I guess I'm your new next neighbor now." You set the box down to open the door.

"I'm y/n btw" .

"I'm Joe. Nice to meet you."

Y/n. what a nice name.

"Nice to meet you too."

And What a beautiful smile. I can really get used to this.

"I actually slept here last night. Is it normally that loud around here? I mean did u hear the yelling last night? I mean i know it's New York but seriously why at that hour." You laughed a little.


Of course I heard the yelling. It was me. And Candice. But I don't think youll have to worry about that anymore. But of course I can't let you know that.

"Oh yea that hasn't happened in a while. Actually the people who used to live here used to argue everyday like that."

"That's terrible. No one called the police or anything?"

"No. People usually keep to themselves around here so it doesn't cause much drama."

'yea I get that. And um thank you again. I owe you one." You smile.

"It's nothing. And if you ever need anything I'm just a door away."

"Of course. Same to you see you around"

Oh of course you will see me around. Weather you see me or not. .

You closed the door after he left thinking.
He's really cute. He's probably taken tho.


The next day~~


You woke up, ate, got dressed and went off to work. Leaving your new apartment you were hoping to run into your new hot neighbor Joe since it was 8am and you figured he might be going to work to. But that didn't happen.

It was now five when you were getting home And you still didn't run into him. What a boring day you think. You figured you would go out and go try somewhere to eat. Maybe you could ask Joe what his recommendation would be. But that involves you knocking on his door if he was even there. And honestly that was too much pressure.

I mean wouldn't it be weird if I did that? You know he would never like me anyways. I mean it's me.

You walked until you seen some restaurants and you walked in one that looked nice. It felt a little weird to be eating by yourself but you seen someone else eating by themselves so u didn't feel to bad. Plus you had your face shoved in your phone.

I wish so badly I could go in there and keep you company. No one should be alone. I could go in there right? That's not weird. Hmm. To risky. But who are you texting that much? Your boyfriend? Girlfriends ?


You got up and threw your stuff away.

That's my cue to leave.

Back to the apartment it is.
You were freezing and you couldn't get the heat to go up. You searched it online and still couldn't get it. I guess you could use that as an excuse to talk to Joe. You went over and knocked on his door. You were low-key freaking out.

Y/n. What a surprise.

"Hey y/n. How are you?" 

"I'm good and you?" 

"I'm good whats up?" 

"I was just wondering if you knew how to turn the heat up it's freezing in my room and I don't get how this works." You say holding up your heat remote controller. 

"Ah yes those are tricky to get." He says while walking into your apartment.


"You have to hit that he says and then hit start and press the number up to make it warmer."

"Oh thank you so much! I'm sorry for bothering you so late." 

You could never bother me.

"You don't bother me it's okay."


I can see that you don't like to be helped much. But I want to help you. you think your always bothering someone but your not.


We start walking to the door. 

"I guess I owe you another one."


I can try and make a move right now but that might be too soon. 

"It's no big deal ill see you around. Have a great night." 

"You too Joe. Good night". 

Joe's pov

I was going leaving to go to work when i seen you leaving your apartment so apparently you work when I work. You had a coffee in your hand. Maybe that's your morning routine I'll have to find out.


The next day ~

You left at 8 a.m. as I presumed and you had a coffee in your hands. I followed you to a restaurant that must be where you work.
That must be your morning routine. You get off the same time around I do. You go home and then you leave again later. This time you're going food shopping. You picked up a little bit of things. And went back home. I came from the other direction so we could run into each other.

"Hey neighbor. Need some help?"

"No I think I got it thank you though. Glad to see that there are still gentlemen around. "


"I guess my mama raised me right." We both laugh.

"What you making for dinner?" 

"uh, Just a salad. What about you?"

healthy eater. No it's because you just think that your fat like every other girl. I mean most people don't normally just eat salad for fun at your age.

"I'm going with the less healthy option which is Pizza." I smile. And so do you.

"Your welcome to join if you want? " 

"No that's okay I don't want to interrupt anything."

"No it's fine it's just me. And you can get to know your neighbor a little better."

"Okay. Yeah let me just put these away."

"Take your time."

That wasn't to hard now was it y/n. I'm pretty sure you already like me. I don't think you'll be as hard as beck was. There's no boyfriend in the way. Or is there? I guess I'll find out soon. Doesn't seem like you have many friends to get In the way . But I mean moving to a new city- maybe you just left your friends behind.

You walked in joes apartment 7 mins later and he called out "pizza should be here in 10" "okay, that's fine" you called back. "Oh wow your apartment is wayyy more different"

"Yeah, but I didn't just move in"

"True".

"What would you like to drink"

Now a drink says a lot about a person. Most times.

"Um some water".

Cliche answer.

I hand her the cup and she's asks "so how was work? And where do u work ?"
