helping Aunt Sally carry my two suitcases into the room and setting them down on top of each other, both of us smiling at the sight.

"Thank you, sweetie! You're such an angel!" Aunt Sally praised me.

I rolled my eyes playfully. "Stop being cheesy!" I giggled.

"Well, you know it works every time." Dad chuckled, making Aunt Sally giggle as well.

Aunt Sally left the room quickly after saying goodbye to us and leaving us alone in my room. She returned a few seconds later with a pile of boxes filled with clothes and shoes, which I placed neatly on the bed before moving them to the bottom of the wardrobe next to my dresser. I grabbed a few more things from the boxes, arranging them neatly into the empty spaces between my bed and the wall opposite the bed.

"Do you need any help?" Dad asked, glancing at a box filled with books.

"Sure! Let's put these in my closet!" I replied enthusiastically as I moved over to the desk and placed the pile of books on my desk.

Once we finished putting the boxes into my closet, I began placing my clothes that were in my suitcase in the drawers that stood beside the bed. By the time we were done, I had three boxes full of clothes.

"Where's the last box?" Dad asked, looking around the room.

"In the closet." I told him before closing the drawer.

We both walked over to the closet and pulled the cardboard box out, placing it on my bed. I grabbed the tape off of the edge and began wrapping the box in plastic, making sure the lid was sealed tightly before placing the box down next to the others.

"All done!" I announced cheerily, smiling brightly.

"Great job! Come help me unpack your new room." Dad smiled, leading the way downstairs to the living room where Aunt Sally was sitting on the sofa flipping through the channels on the tv.

She turned around as soon as we appeared in the room, standing up immediately once she noticed the two of us standing in the doorway.

"Hey guys!" She said happily, making her way towards us. "Oh look!" She added, pointing towards the TV, "They're showing reruns of Buffy! How awesome is that!?"

I grinned at her excitement
