I’ve moved for place to place trying to find a place that truly enchants me, I get word of Romania a beautiful country known for its castles and landscapes after studying the language for a while only to get partially fluent I decide it’s time to move out, I’ve enjoyed Florida with the warmth and it’s beaches but it truly isn’t for me. Grabbing my leather Swiss army bag and a duffle bag and a pack pack I set out. I get on a train heading to Vâlvea County, on this trip I take out my laptop and begin to message the person I plan to stay with for the first few months till I get on my feet, he was the reason I planned to move to Romania anyways. He and I have been friends since I was little, we met at my middle school both of us were Cuban and we bonded over our interests in art. ‘Andrew’ though my nickname for him was ‘Scot’ somehow and he called me ‘Nyx’ I’ve always been enthralled by the stars and night sky.
“Hey how many more hours do you have till your here” -‘Scotty my pookie bear’
“About and hour and 30 mins now”-‘Nyxxypoo’
“I know your..different but some of the stuff here is intense, you won’t be able to leave after coming here Nyx. It’s your decision but I want you to be sure.- ‘Scotty my pookie bear’
“I’m certain Scot, don’t worry about me remember I may be older now but I’m just as skilled or more!”-‘Nyxxypoo’
“I know I know, I’ll see you soon pookie”-‘Scotty my pookie bear’
I smile and prepare some designs of jewelry I’d like to make before arriving at the village, a piece of amber that has a fly infused in it is what I hope to be my first finished project after moving in.
-Time skip-
I got off the train, Scot said he’d be here soon to pick me up. When a Dacia 1300 pulled up that was purple with pale green accents I knew it was him “Hop in loser I got a lot to tell you” I roll my eyes putting my bags in the trunk and pulling out an Amethyst necklace that I made for him. I go to the front seat accidentally slamming the door warning me a glare from Scot, I pull out the necklace smiling oddly making his glare soften. Taking it from my calloused hands he smiles softly “thank you Nyx” I smile proudly seeing it fit his vibe. Off we go, he began to ramble about the village I signed myself off for, cold, a god? That’s a woman? 4 lords?, huh? I blanked out a bit and after dumping enough information to fit inside the sun he turns to me “did you get that?” I nod awkwardly ‘no’ he sighs “you’ll see anyways it should be fine.” Now that concerned me. I raise an eyebrow “we’re hereeeee!” He bursts out with a grin. I sigh opening my sides door and walking to the open trunk taking out my bags we head to the door as he fumbles with his keys. “I split the garage in half so now you’ll be able to do your stuff and I’ll do mine. you can put your stuff here” he motions to the now open side of the door.
WOW.
This is real.
And definitely happening.
I need a drink.
