After sending Kylie and Keith out on a relaxing date, Rebecca continued to work for about thirty-five minutes getting more of the boxes into the apartment. She had two boxes left and then it was just the furniture. Becca was still very skeptical that one person might be able to move what was left on his own, but she sat down on the front stoop and text Michael anyway. She sent him the address but she really had no idea how long it would take for him to get there. Maybe she should have texted him earlier.
She picked up her bottle of water and took several sips trying to cool down as she waited for him.

Michael ended up pulling up in a 2015 black camaro. he park as him and one of his friend got out of the car they both started walking up to becca. they both looked at her as michael says.
"hey becca"
he hooked his keys on his black skinny jeans.
"you dont have to worry about me getting hurt. i got my friend to come here from Brooklyn to help. this is my best friend alex"
alex looked at her then says.
Alex: hi becca
they both stood there as becca started to say.

Rebecca stands up off the stoop and smiles at them both.
“It's nice to meet you, Alex. And Michael, I am so grateful that it was you that offered to help. I was afraid some creep was going to offer and I'd have to accept his help because I had no other choice. So thank you both for coming to help me.”
She walked over to the truck to show them what they had left. There was a table with four matching chairs, a dresser, a bed, and a sofa. There was also two heavier boxes that Rebecca hadn't been able to lift.
“Most of it should be fairly easy to get inside. The bed is broken up into parts so that shouldn't be to hard. The only things I'm a little worried about is the mattress and the sofa since they are so wide. It might be difficult to get them through the door ways.”
She wasn't sure how much help she'd be since she wasn't very strong, but she was willing to help them since they were helping her.

michael and alex looked at the stuff in the truck and michael says.
"i don't think it should be to hard to get it inside the door."
michael paused taking off his leather jacket and ran to put it in his car he came back and he had a tank top on under it. you can see both his full sleeve tattoos as Michael said.
"we will take the chairs and tables first. and you can just tell us where you want it. and maybe hold the door too."
he grabs the table which wasn't really hard to carry himself as alex grabs some of the chairs and started to walk to the door. becca held the door as they walked to the apartment door. michael then said.
"so where are we putting the table and chairs?"
she then began to say.

After holding the door for them both, she rushed ahead towards the kitchen.
“I think Ky said she wanted it to be placed right about here.”
She took a step back as they moved the table and chairs in. They moved the rest of the chairs in along with the dresser and boxes. Back outside now, Becca grabbed the cushions off the sofa trying to make the sofa a little lighter. She took them back inside while the guys stayed outside pulling the sofa off the truck. When she got back outside, she stood at the doorway ready for them.
“Are you sure you don't need me to do anything besides hold the door?”
She bit into her bottom lip nervously hoping they wouldn't hurt themselves.

they walked to the door with the couch. as becca was holding it open alex said.
Alex: yes we are sure. we can do it.
alex went through the door backwards first. michael ended up scrapping his arm a little on the door after getting it mostly through the door. she went and held the door for the apartment as they got it through then michael said.
"where it this going?"
they stood there holding it as she ran to where it was going to go and they went and set it down. as michael said.
"now its mattress and the bed. mattress will probably be the hardest."
becca then began to say

“So let's leave the mattress till last.”
Rebecca didn't notice Michael's arm until they were back outside. When had that happened?
“Hey, is your arm okay?”
She reached for it so she could see how bad it was.

she was holding his arm. he looked at her then at his arm. it was just a little scrape on his forearm. he said.
"it nothing just a little scrap that i got from the door taking the couch in."
he was ignoring it from the being cause he didn't want her to feel bad. she let go of his arm as he went to the truck with alex. he took the head bored and bottom bored of the bed. and alex took the two sides that connects them together and the metal peaces that hold the mattress up. becca held both doors getting into the apartment they followed her to where the bed rooms where. as they set the stuff down. and michael said.
"are you going to want help putting this together or are they going to do that later?"
he leaned against the wall for a minute as she began to speak

Rebecca shook her head.
“No, I'm sure Keith will be able to do that later. I'm not even sure where all the screws and stuff are to put it together. So don't worry about it.”
She smiled at him
"You guys are doing enough for me as it is. I couldn't ask you to do even more.

michael shook his head. then he said.
"ok i don't mind helping. like you said before better us then having some creepy guys come and help."
he said as he was walking outside with her and alex was walking in front of them getting back out to the truck all that was left was the mattress they took it out of the truck getting to the first door michael said.
"just go down to the ground a little bit and we should be able to get it in straight"
they got it into the first door then the one going into the apartment. and leaned it on the wall in the bed room. alex and michael walked back into the living room and sat on the couch it was kind of warm out and they where moving allot. michael said.
"got everything out of the truck we are going to just sit for a few then we will get out of here so you can do what you have to."
michael then started to look at his arm. it was a little bit worse then he though but still wasn't to bad. he still didn't say anything so she didn't feel bad. as becca began to say.

Rebecca walked back out from the kitchen with some water bottles.
“Here. Sorry if you usually drink something else. We haven't been to the store or anything yet and this is all we have.”
She handed the bottle to Alex first and then one to Michael. She frowned when he went to reach for his, noticing his arm.
“Are you sure your arm is okay? Maybe I'm just imaging it but it looks worse then it did a few minutes ago. I can see if we have a first aid kit around.”

he opened the bottle and took a drink.
"this is fine for me i usually just drink water most of the time. he is the one that drinks beer and pop stuff like that."
he told her not to worry about it but he new she was going to. he got up and went into the bath room and splashed some water on it. alex was siting on the couch still texting on his phone. she was standing a the bathroom door as he looked at her.
"i know your not going to stop worrying so go ahead."
he held his arm out for her hoping it makes her feel better after taking care of it.

Rebecca glanced away. She wasn't trying to nag him about it. She just felt guilty that he had come over to help her after only meeting her the one time and then gotten hurt. It hadn't looked like it needed stitches or anything like that, but still she had felt bad.
“No, it's alright, I trust your judgment. If you think it's okay, it's okay.”
She finally looked back at him.

after he said what he did he kind of was yelling at himself in his head. it came out wrong. he looked at her.
"im sorry that kind out came out wrong."
he looked at it then back at her.
"i think it could at least use some first aid ointment and maybe a band aid so i doesn't get infected or anything."
he held out his arm again. and waited to see what she would say or do.

She looked at him, making sure he was certain that he wanted her to doctor it. After seeing he was serious, she squeezed past him in the bathroom and reached into the medicine cabinet. Her sister had already unpacked everything in here. She found the small first aid kit and put it on the cabinet.
“Your right, it doesn't look as bad as I thought.”
She puts the ointment on the spot before applying a band aid. After throwing away the trash and putting things away, she smiled at him.
“All done...”

He smiled and looked at her. Then he says.
"Thank you"
Then he walked back to where Alex is and he turns to Becca and says
"We will get out of here now. I have to take him back to my place so he can get his car and go home. Plus it looks like you have things to do"
They started to walk to the door as began to say.

michael turned and looked at her. and said.
"you don't have to pay us anything. we where more then happy to help."
he paused as alex was standing in the hall and michael was holding the door open. as alex says.
Alex: bye it was nice meeting you becca.
then michael looked at her as he ran his hand through his black hair then says.
"bye. it was nice seeing you again."
michael was standing in the hall now as becca was holding the door open as she began to say

She didn't want to keep them any longer. She knew Michael needed to get Alex back home.
“It was nice seeing you again too. Thanks again for your help. I'd have never gotten everything inside without your help.”
She smiled at him and said goodbye, turning back to everything she needed to do inside of her apartment. She let out a deep breath. It was going to take hours to go through the boxes she had brought in by herself before they had gotten there. But at least her sister wouldn't have to worry and unloading the truck. Needing a short break from all the work, she walked over to her guitar case and pulled her guitar out before beginning to play an acoustic version of “Diary of Jane” that she'd been working on learning. Her nerves about getting everything done immediately began to calm as did everything when she started playing her guitar.
