Arriving at my house I walk in my kitchen and place my backpack on a stool by the counter .
Of course , I certainly don't live alone , I'm in 12th grade for heaven sakes .
Looking around the house seeing there's no sign of my mom tells me she's working late.
I sigh me, being the only child, just leaves me lonely all alone in the house that could fit a family of at least 4 members .My dads never home , he's always out of town for engineering and my mom, well she's always working late but we bond on a normal basis of course .
I talk to my dad on the phone all the time .
No matter what I thought about all my mind went back to is a pair of perfect honey brown orbs are all I'm thinking about .
That boy I talked to earlier . The one who was staring at me durning class for who knows how long .
He looked so happy, his hair looked so soft and he had a perfect jawline .
But what did he mean ' see you around ' ?
Certainly guys just don't say that ,
At least this isn't what I thought .

Suddenly bursting me out of my thoughts , which I seem to always be in, a buzzing of my phone goes off in my thigh since it is infact in my jean pockets .
Pulling it out I realize I'm getting a call from one of my best friends , whose name is Brianna but I choose to call her 'Bree' .
Quickly swiping to answer I press my pink iPhone 5c up to my ear .

" Hey Bree ," I sigh calmly .
"Hey babe , you okay ?" She asks worry in her voice and I can only imagine her facial expression right now , I laugh at the thought .

"Yes I'm fine ,just a lot on my mind at the moment ." I say, no speck of doubt in my voice .
"You want to have a sleepover and talk about it ?" Her voice booms with joy , this girl .
"No it's fine Bree ," there's a wobble in my voice but I hope she doesn't notice .
There's a pause before Bree speaks up again .
"I'll bring food and rent a movie ," she says , and I can tell she's not joking, she'd never joke about this.
I giggle nodding my head but then soon realizing she can't see me and say ,
"Make sure to get dinner ."
"Of course bye Jadey!" Her voice chirps and the line goes dead . My real names Jade but she prefers 'Jadey' .

In a swift motion I text my mom asking if Bree can come over .

Then going up to my overly pink decorated room and plugging my phone into its charger and getting into lazy clothes and taking off my lightly done makeup ,because of course it's not like I'm going anywhere ,whilst listening to music .
Once I'm in sweats I hop up to see my mom respond

from : mom
Yes , have fun , I'll be home around 9 tonight love you ;*

I respond to her saying thank you and I love you too then looking at the clock that read '3:54 pm' .
Sighing I pause my music before heading downstairs to find something to do .

Currently it's 4:37 and here I am watching Netflix when I get a text from Bree saying she's almost here, I silently cheer in my mind because she's saving me from the boring , lonely life I'm living right now .
Hearing the doorbell I jump up and practically run to the door, almost slipping while doing so .

Opening the door Bree's beautiful smiling face is shown whilst she's holding 4 redbox movies and holding 2 bags . One bag from Panera , of course, and another which I presumed were more snacks .
She quickly comes inside and sets the food down on the counter and dragging me to a stool and once were both down she looks at me with the most wondrous eyes ever .
"Spill ." She urges while playfully glaring at me and I laugh hysterically ready to speak out my mind .

"So today I ran into this guy ," I paused , actually he ran into you, my mind spoke . I opened my mouth to speak once more before Bree cut my off .
"Can you be more descriptive about this guy ?" She asked raising one eyebrow up , something I've always been jealous of .
My mouth felt like it was drying up just talking about it when I have way more on my mind .
"He's in my history class , last period ?" I spoke more like a question , shaking my head I got the Panera bag out with my shaking hands why ? I don't know . Getting out my food and passing Bree hers she kept rambling out, to herself of course . Something she does a lot .
"What's his hair color ?" She finally spoke up as I was opening up my box of , my favorite ,chicken salad . Looking up at Bree I saw her inspecting me .
"Dirty blondish hair I guess , honey brown eyes -" quickly cut off again .
"Justin Bieber ?" She practically yelled .
"I think so Bree I don't know ? How's this supposed to help he's just a guy and it's not like I like him or anything ," I said .
"How do you know ? " she challenged .
"I've just met him ," I said holding back my doubts I mean I can't like him can I ? But you do , my mind spoke but I decided it was best to ignore my feelings for now .
"Well he's new this year , actually he lives in your neighborhood ." She said and this being heard made me feel a jolt of joy rush through my body for no reason known .
" what ?" I finally said after that awkward silence .
" he's your neighbor ," she said expecting me to click to that thought . Just as that was said the doorbell rang , getting up questionably raising both eyebrows up at Bree , seeming as I can't do one like her .
Bree rushed a hand through her light ,sun kissed, blonde and beautiful long hair that I've been jealous of seeing mine is not as long and brown. Quickly rushing to the door and opening it the first thing that came to me was brown stained coffee orbs .
It was Justin , I think Bree said was his name he was wearing sweats and a black long sleeved polo shirt since it was quite in fact chilly today , what was weird was that we were almost matching .
His perfectly done quiff was down at the moment getting pieces of his dirty blonde hair in his face .
It's weird seeming he didn't know my name but so many thoughts were jumbling in my head my heart spoke before my mind ,
" Justin ?"
said not trusting my own words .
" hey stranger ," his husky voice said ,playfully .
"I'm Jade , Jade Leah ," I said trying to ease my mind at once .
" I only knew your name because of my friend ." I said once again, not wanting to sound weird .
"So you were wondering about me ?" He said smirking cockily .
Quickly feeling heat rush to my cheeks , almost instantly I looked down .
"Awe am I making you blush Jade ?" He said my name slipping off his tongue perfectly making my toes curl happily , not literally by the way .
"Stop hiding your face babe ," he said taking his two fingers and tipping my chin up towards him. I ignored the 'babe' part and shyly looked up to him . Looking down at his other hand to see he had a plate of what looked like , cookies ?
" my mom wanted my to bring this by for you , since your our new neighbors," He said passing them to me while smiling wide .
"Thanks she sounds so nice , I'd like to meet her , please do tell her I said thank you to the both of you ." I said returning a cheeky grin back at him making him chuckle .
"Your cute , but no need really it was our pleasure, " he said .
Quickly putting the plate of cookies on the coffee table behind me I walked back up to him .
"Told you I'd see you around ," hearing him say this only made me giggle . "Yes you did ." I said looking up at him. He came towards me and wrapped his arms around my waist , for a hug .
Rapidly my arms went around his neck and I could smell his Versace cologne making my hormones go wild to the scent .
Something went through me and it made my heart go faster and I'm pretty sure he felt it too .
Pulling away and blushing again I turned up to face him .
" I have to go , we should hangout sometime , I'd really like to go out to lunch with you sometime ." He said .
" I'd like that too ," I said not even sure what was occurring .
" alright bye Jade ," he said leaning in and carefully , kissing my cheek . I mentally awed at his shy actions .
" bye ," I said about to close the door .
Once the door was closed , I walked back into the kitchen to find Bree in there , smirking at me , what's up with everyone smirking at me ? I giggled just thinking that and looking back at her finishing up her Mac and cheese .
" you'll never believe what just happened ," I said .
" well you can tell me while we're watching movies lets go ! " she happily said grabbing the movies and bag of snacks , taking my unfinished salad I put it in the fridge deciding to save it for later . I went to the table and took the plate of cookies as well and taking them with me to the movie room .
"The fault in our stars ?" She said and I nodded my head , giggling at my best friends behavior and taking a seat on the couch , wrapping myself in a blanket and patting a spot for Bree ,let it begin , I gleed in my head not helping but letting out a warm hearted smile .
