Strange Neighbors
Through thier first week in the house they started a sort of system. Phil wakes up for work and leaves the house(forcing Techno to sleep before leaving). Wil wakes up and starts working on a song in some way. Techno wakes up eventully and starts working on his computer again. Repeat.
The only thing braking up thier usule lives is the other people around them, having all lived alone before this.
"Techno!" And this is one of those times,"Techno! How does this sound?"
Wilbur had come running into the room, guitar in hand."Wil, I'm workin', could we do this later?"
Wilbur rincled his nose," You're not going to lose anything over a three minite song." He continued,"Besides, Phil won't be back for another few hours."
"Fine." Techno groaned, turning twords Wilbur. "I'll listen."
Wilbur began playing. It was a slightly creepy song about a nousince who wouldn't leave a girl alone.... And was maybe slightly gay...
In any case, It was a nice song. Even if it was a bit creepy.
There was an awful scatching noise from the other room. It sounded like charcoal on brick.
Both Wilbur and Techno ran downstairs. In the living room was an old woodstove, the wall behind it covered in brick.
(Btw this is a woodstove)
On one of the bricks was a happy face drawn in charcoal, said charcoal was on the ground benieth it. Techno bent down, picking up the piese of burnt wood.
"Techno..." Wilbur wimpered, sounding tarified.
Techno looked up at Wilbur, who poined to the woodstove. The doors of which were slightly open.
The family who used to live here hadn't cleaned it out. Leaving ash and chared wood inside.
"Wilbur get out of the house." Techno comanded, pulling him twords the door. "We need to call 911 and Phil."
(Btw, I have no idea where this story takes place.... But I live in the US and the house this is based on is in the US.... soooo )
The two of them ran to the front yard, checking thier pockets for thier phone .... finding nothing.
"Do you know if anyone lives near by?" Wilbur asked, looking slightly paniced.
Techno looked around them.... off in the distence there was a house up on a hill. He pointed in its direction.
"Theres a chance its abandoned," he let out a sigh," but we should try it anyway."

The two boy were curently on the pourch of the hill house. There was a car in the drive, conferming that someone did live there.
Wilbur stole himself and knocked on the door. There was a yell from inside, then the door opened. Reviling a tall man.
He was slightly shorter than Wilbur, with blond hair and pale skin. He had a handful of freckles skattered over his face. Just above his emerled eyes were long eyelasses.
"Hello? Ya need anything?" The man asked.
Techno nodded," Could we use your phone...?"
The man looked at them skepticly," What for? Don't you have a cellphone?"
"I'll explain while he calls. We need to call as soon as posible." Wilbur stated.
The man could clearly hear the panic in his voice, and seemed concerned. "Follow me, I guess"
He led them into the house and into another room,"Hey Dream, who was at the... Door..." Asks a boy at a table.
The boy was olive skinned. His shaggy black hair was held back from his eyes with a thin piece of cloth. His eyes matched his hair.
The room was a kitchen. Dream handed Techno a phone then turned to Wilbur.
"So what happened? Why did you need a phone? And more importantly, who are you?" He asked.
Will glanced over at Techno, who was clearly talking to Phil,"We're your new neighbors... We were in the house and we heard a noise. Went down stairs and our wood stove was open, we ran outside to call the police... But neither of us had our phones."
Dream stayed silent for a while,"So, your names are...?"
"I'm Wilbur and that is Techno. Our other room mate is Phil." Will replied.
"Okay. They said to wait here until they arrive." Techno states,"Also, Phil's on his way."
Wilbur nodded, continuing to talk with Dream.
***
There was soon a knock on the door. Dream stood to get it, Will following after. It was the police.
"We're here about the home invasion..."
Wilburs eyes lit up,"Finally! Technoblade! We can go!"
The officer nodded, walking out. Techno followed Wilbur out of the door, after saying their goodbyes that is.
***
(Skipping because legal shit is boring, and I don't want to write about it.)
No one was found in the house. There was no sign of a break in. Nor was anything stolen. In fact, the only things out of place was the wood stove and the piece of charcoal.
The police left, assuring them that it was probably nothing.
"Umm... I'll get to making dinner." Phil says awkwardly, being the first to walk back into the house.
Will nods. He glances twords Techno who still looked unsure. Will walked up onto the porch and sat on the swing.
Techno bit his lip,"I guess I should get back to work... I'll see you at dinner."
And he walked back up into his room.
Despite having been assured that no one was in the house, he felt as if someone were watching him. He kept turning to look behind him even few seconds.
Of course, there was no one.
