Summer Break is over and its time to head back to school.
This was the last push till the school year ends.
Its Dawn.
Time to wake up and get ready for my day ahead.
You never know what could happen in this city of Angels.

Black tee.
Black sweatpants.
And my Retro 4's.
That was my outfit for the day.
I put my headphones around my neck because I wanted to listen to some tunes on my way to school.
Today i felt like taking a walk to school and plus JJ had some other plans so i couldn't drive with him.
Got my bag and hit the road.
I stepped outside the apartment and locked the door behind me.
I had more time now.
It was time to take the stairs.
Needed some of the excercise after getting that lit a few nights ago.
I head towards the stairwell door.
The door of apartment 8D opens and then...
She steps out.
I stop.
She closes the door and then turns into my direction.
Her hair was tied up into a ponytail this time.
Once again I got lost in those hazel eyes of hers.
She shouted down the hallway
"Hey champ!nice to see you again."
I

smiled and replied
"Heyyy nice to see you too."
She walked to me.
In that moment i thought to myself.
Is she walking to me?
Am i going to talk to her now?
What if something goes wrong?
What if I something insulting?
With no hesitation she opens her arms and hugs me.
While she held me i just stood there.
Thinking.
Is she-
Is she hugging?
"Dont be scared, im okay if you hold me."
I reacted quick and wrapped my arms around her.
This feeling.
It felt so good.
I felt at ease and i felt a certain type of warmth.
I didn't know what it was but...
I loved it.
She let go of me and i did the same but yet she was still so close to me.
I'm a pretty tall guy standing at 6foot1.
Plus i wore my Retro's so that added a couple inches to my height.
She probably stood at 5foot5inches.
She looked up at me.
I looked down at her.
We stared at each other for a couple of seconds and she asked me a question.
"So where you heading?"
I answered
"Oh me? Im heading to school, its the first day back after summer break."
She giggled and said
"I know dummy, but what school are you heading too?"
I smiled and replied
"Im heading to Hamilton, I attend school there."
Once again she started giggling.
With a smile on her face she told me
"Im walking the same way, might as well walk you there."
I never thought that this girl would be walking with me.
I thought seeing her was a one time deal but i guess not.
"Sure, that would be great thanks."
I guess i had to leave the excercise for another day.
I wasn't going to let this moment slip away.
We got into the elevator and the doors closed.

We stepped into the streets of LA.
Walking to the high school i attended.
I turned my to her and asked
"By the way i didn't get your name" then she looked at me and i said " damn, i guess i got distracted by how beautiful you look."
She started blushing.
"Aren't you a cute niño."
Niño?
What does that mean?
I had no idea what she just called me.
I didn't wanna seem weird and i wanted to seem cool like i knew what she said.
"Thanks" i said.
She let out another giggle and said
"My Name's Isabella, Isabella Delgado.
But you can call me Bella since all my friends call me that."
Did she call me a friend.
Damn, ive been friendzoned by her.
I thought about but it didn't bother me its still the start.
Ive recently met her, things may change.
"So I'm a friend now?"
With her big smile she said
" Yea!, of course you are."
We both smiled at each other and laughed.
Walking and talking.
This was probably the best morning walk of my life.
I get to walk with a girl who looks like a Goddess.
I really hoped that I would get closer to her after we part ways.
She asked me
"So how long have you been in High school?"
I replied
"This is my first year, I'm in ninth grade and this is my last semester before i go on to tenth grade."
Shouting she said
"YOUR IN NINTH GRADE TOO?"
I replied
"Yea im still a junior."
"There no way that we're in the same grade.
Im guessing since we are you're fourteen too?"
I replied
"Yip im fourteen too."
She said
"You look way older though, i seriously thought you were a senior or something like that."
I said
"Nope, not even close."
We both smiled and kept walking on to the school.
We talked and talked and talked
Getting to know one another better.
She told me about where she came from and where she grew up.
All about her culture and her family.
I didn't have that much family so i didn't open up that much.

We finally reached the front gate of the school and student were arriving and walking in while we stood outside.
"Well here's my stop.
I guess we'll continue this conversation another time?"
She replied
"Of course, it was great talking to you and getting to know a few things about you."
I said
"I can say the same about you."
She smiled and said to me
"I hope you enjoy your first day, I'll see you whenever, maybe we'll bump into each other soon."
Well technically we lived in the same apartment building so it was pretty obvious that i was going to see her again.
"Thank you, you should enjoy yours too and thank you for walking with me, i appreciate it."
Hopefully this wasn't the last time.
She moved closer and wrapped her arms around my body and i did the same.
The feeling of warmth.
Feeling at peace.
I felt happy a bit.
Or was it a lot?
What is this feeling.
Is this-

She let go and walked on.
I turned to the school building and looked up.
I plugged my headphones into my phone and picked my playlist.
Put headphones on my ears and the music blocked everything out.
"Here we go, the last push"
I started walking towards the building.
I entered and it was as busy as ever.
Everyone walking to their register classrooms.
So I headed to mine.
Got to class and sat down.
A few minutes passed by and i could slightly hear the bell ring for the day to begin.

"Time to make the best of my first high school year."
And then...
School started once again.
