Luz De Mi Vida ~ A AU Lumity Fanfic

A Beginning

Trees. Lots of trees.

All I could see was trees from inside of the car, on our way to our new home.
Looked like we were going to live in the middle of nowhere.
I didn't really want to move away, to begin with. But we didn't have a choice.

I didn't have a choice...

I looked at my phone. Scrolled through social media.
I didn't have many friends, so I just added random people from my old school.
They didn't add me back, but I didn't really mind.

I slightly chuckled when I saw a cat video. Silly cat was playing with thier own tail.

My mom's voice made me look away from my phone.

"So, how are you feeling about this place?" Mom said looking at me for a second, then paying her attention on the road.

I shrugged, "don't know. Feels a bit weird, but I guess that's just me feeling homesick."

My mom got off the freeway, finally getting onto a street.

"Well, hopefully you'll feel like home here."

I looked out the window. Finally I could see people, stores, motels, and- "MCDONALD'S!" I yelled.

"Aye mija, don't yell."

"Sorry, I'm just very hungry."

My mother smiled, "how about I take you to our home first. Then I'll go get the food."
I looked at her with a odd expression.

"Just wanna let you explore around first. So you feel like home."

I shrugged it off and nodded. "Fine, but I call the big room."

"Hah, in your dreams."

We both laughed.

I brought my attention back to the window.
There was so many people walking. Strange, thought this place was going to be a ghost town.

Guess I was wrong.

~~~

"Well, home sweet home."

Mom said opening the door to our house.
I stepped in, smelling the inside.

Smelled like new house. Whatever that smells like.

The place was quite big.

I could already picture our stuff around the house.
Surprising, this house had a chimney. Winter is around the corner so this will come in handy.

"So what's your thoughts?" Mom said as she put down her stuff on a couch nearby.

"The living room is big. Maybe possibly bigger than our old home" I walked around.
I looked up, watching the fan on the roof.

The walls in the livingroom were a bone white color.
The floor was a grayish wooden color.

It was slippery.

I looked around the kitchen. Opened up the microwave, and fridge.
Everything seemed new.

"Well feel free to explore around, I'm going to get something to eat." Mom shouted from the living room.
"Alright ma" I responded, "get McDonald's!!...twenty piece of nuggies!!" I shouted.

I heard her close the door right after.

I preceded to explore around. Walking upstairs to the rooms, i checked out every one of them.

One room had a bathroom, and the other one didn't.
Knowing my mom she would take the one with the bathroom so.

I walked into to room that was going to be mine.
The walls here were a darker shade than in the livingroom.
The floor here was all carpet.

I actually liked it. Not because of how it looked like, but because it had a window with a small balcony. My old room didn't have this.
Actually....

My room wasn't as big as this!

Carefully, I opened the window. The fresh wind hit my face.
I smiled to myself.

Maybe moving wasn't bad after all.
