"Is that everything loaded into the van?" my adoptive mother asks.
"I believe so, let me just double check every room really quick." I reply.

It is moving day, at long last. We are finally selling up and getting a bigger house because the 3-bedroom house we were living in was too small for a growing teen such as myself.

"I'll meet you there. I just want to go amd say goodbye to some of my friends first." I tell them.
"Ok, if you're sure. Do you know the way there?" my adoptive father asks.
"Yes dad, of course I know where it is. I go past it every day on the way to school." I tell him.
"I'm really going to miss this place. We have been here for so long and we have made so many memories here," I think to myself.

Slowly, I walked to my friends house to tell him that he won't see me around the neighborhood anymore but that he would still see me at school, when suddenly...
*Bump* I stop.
"I am so sorry, it is completely my fault,I wasn't looking where I was walking." I say.
"Honestly, it's ok. Don't worry about it mate." he replied in a voice so soft and so angelic.
I look up. WOW, he is so beautiful that I have to keep turning away to stop myself from blushing.

"Are you okay?" he asks me," y-y-yeah, I'm fine, are you okay?" I ask him.
"I'm fine, just a little bit..." he says but doesn't continue.
"What?" I ask curiously " I'm just a little bit... I think... I'm sorry if this seems forward but, will you go out with me?"
Wait WHAT! Did I hear that correctly or are my ears deceiving me right now?
"S-s-s-sure. I didn't catch your name I reply.
"My name is Oliver, what is your name?" he asks.
"My name is Axel. You have a really cute name" I say, "I haven't seen you around here before."
"Yeah,I only moved here recently." Oliver says.
"Where do you live? You don't have to say if you don't want to" I say to him.
"I will be living in that house down there with the 'for sale' sign out front" he says. I instantly know that he is talking about my old house.
"Well,I hope you like living there. I used to live in that house with my adoptive parents, but we decided to buy a bigger house because they said that I need extra space for my hobbies and studies."
"Oh, which room was yours?" he asks
"Mine was the room on the top floor. Which one is yours going to be?" I ask
"The one on the top floor" he replies.
"If you find anything in there, please let me know. Here is my number just in case" I say and give him my number.
"I'll make sure to ring you if I find anything" Oliver replies. "Before you go, did you say that you are adopted? I mean, I wasn't sure if I heard you correctly."
"Yeah, I have been living with my adoptive parents since I was 6 months old" I tell him, "How about you? How are your parents?" I ask.
"I'm the same as you. I live with my adoptive parents" he says.
OMG! I can't believe I'm dating someone who is adopted like me.
