The Girl Next Door

chapter five

“Harry get up.”

My mum said pushing my shoulder. My eyes fluttered opened as I rolled and looked at her keeping the blankets at least at my belly button.

“Yeah mum?”

I mumbled.

“Someone is here for you, so put some pants on.”

With that she turned and walked out of the room flipping the light on as she walked passed. I let out a tired groan and crawled out of bed. My friend from yesterday had told me he would want to hang out today, but I didn’t expect him to come to my mum’s and wake me up. I looked at my phone and the time was eleven forty five.

I slid on my pajama pants and walked out of the room, leaving my chest bare. I walked into the living room all groggy. When I looked up from rubbing my eyes I almost thought that I was still dreaming and this wasn’t really happening because there standing in my living room was Tiffany. She wore a dark skinny jeans and a loose sweater that hung on her body so perfectly. Her long blonde hair straight as could be and her jacket around her, her hands shoved deep in its pockets.

“Umm hey.”

I said shyly running my hand through my messy bed head hair.

“Hey.”

She answered a slight blush coming to her cheeks.

“What’s up?”

I asked with a chuckle.

“I wanted to know if you wanted to get lunch with me?”

Her smile was small and timid but so sweet. It made my heart begin to race and the butterflies that where in me before had multiplied to the thousands.

“I would love too.”

I said with a big cheeky smile.

“I just need to get dressed.”

I looked down at my half naked body and then back up at her feeling heat rush to my face. When I looked up at her I noticed her eyes weren’t on my face but on my abdomen. She looked up at me and realized that I had caught her looking at my body and her cheeks quickly turned a dark shade of red

“Yeah umm, just come to my house when you’re ready.”

“Ok I will.”

With that we said our goodbyes and she walked out the front door.

“Oh Harry you going out with the neighbor now?”

My mum asked in a teasing voice.

“Harry you dog.”

Robin added to the teasing.

I rolled my eyes even though I was super excited and quickly walked to my room. I dressed myself in the usual skinny jeans t shirt and sneakers. I sprayed myself with some good smelling cologne and brushed my hair. I stuffed my car keys and wallet into my pockets then walked out into the living room where mum and Robin sat.

“Oh Harry don’t you look nice.”

My cheeks turned pink as I walked to the door.

“Don’t kiss to sloppy.”

Robin teased as I pulled on my jacket and opened the door. I ignored all their comments as best as I could as I stepped into the cold.

“Be safe.”

My mum called as I shut the door behind me. The wind blew strong stinging my cheeks and nose. I quickly walked down the driveway and across the street. I could feel the excitement building inside me and I just wanted to jump and scream and do a dance right there. I finally was able to see her, to talk to her, to see her beautiful smile. I was able to look into her beautiful brown eyes and maybe touch her soft skin again. The thought sent nervous chills all over my body.
