Andrew, trying to be the nice neighbor, began going trailer to trailer and introducing himself. Upon knocking on the 4th trailer, a grunt sounded before the door was slightly opened.
"What?" Thanos demanded.
"I just moved in. The name is Andrew." He smiled and reached out a hand for the young man. Thanks just stared at it before looking back up at Andrew.
"What do you want? A present?" He went to shut the door as Andrew put his foot in the way.
"You seem lonely."
"Congrats captain obvious, you're right." thanks kicks Andrews foot out of the doorway and slammed the door shut. Why couldn't people just leave him alone? They had ignored him all through high school, so why try to be friendly?
The phone in Edward and Elijah's trailer rang. "Hello?" Elijah answered.
"Hey son."
"Dad, I thought you were out on a jog." There's the distinct beeping of a heart monitor in the background. "Are you at the hospital?" Edward sat up, startled by the information.
"Yes, but I'm alright. Don't worry." He always hated when his sons worried about him jogging out in the heat. They always told him he'd collapse from dehydration and end up in the hospital. This phone call certainly did not help.
"What's going on?"
"I just called to tell you boys to start dinner without me. Got called in to go through some paper work and it might take me alright."
"Ok dad. Love you." Tyler listened to the phone line disconnect. As much as his sons deserved to know what was going on, it wasn't his choice to tell them. If Darius wanted to tell the whole park his lack of responsibility nearly got his daughter killed he could go right ahead, but Tyler would not.
"Elijah? Is dad ok?"
"Ya. He's just got some work."
"So the translation is he's out on a date or something."
"Don't be childish. He's at the hospital. I heard the heart monitor."
"Maybe he finally passed out from pushing himself too hard."
"Maybe." Elijah got a pot out and began to boil some water watching Edward out of the corner of his eye as he does so. "You're hiding something."
"What? No I'm not."
"You're my twin Edward. I can tell when you're lying. What is it?"
Edward looked down. "I can't say. Not yet."
"What? You don't trust me or something?"
"No I do, it's just..." Edward couldn't find the words. "I'm..."
"High? Drunk? In love? Suicidal? Gay?" Elijah stopped when he saw his brother nod his head at 'gay'. "So what? You're still my brother. Mind giving me a hand with dinner? I'm starving."
Earlier that day, the last trailer had been sold. For the first time in forever, the park would finally be at full occupancy. The newest occupant arrived early in the morning, around 4am. A young man drove up and stepped out of his car like he was stepping out of the city: baggy pants, oversized hoody, backwards cap. He didn't belong. He grabbed the more important stuff from his car, like the bongs and pots he used for weed, and hurried into his new home. He can still hear his friend's voice in his head from before he left New York: 'Take them by storm. They'll never know what hit them before it's too late.' Roshawn planned to do exactly that.
