"But why did we have to move all the way here?" I said to my mom as we drove to our new house
"Because y/n, your father got a new job, this means new opportunities for us!" She said excitedly.
I grew up with both my parents in a mid size home in Reno Nevada, I don't have any siblings and I'm pretty glad about that because I'm sure keeping up with a sibling would be a total bitch. My father Ben is a lawyer and pretty bad at it to be honest with you, My mother Vivian is a hairstylist at a local salon, And recently my dad got a new job offer and we moved to California together, I'm not to happy about it though but whatever I can't change their choices.
As we pull up to the house I notice it's creepy and unsettling exterior, I was not excited to go inside but apparently this house had been fully renovated so it couldn't be that bad could it?
As I walk in to the house I immediately notice how cold it was compared to the hot California air outside, I ignored the temperature and headed upstairs to my new bedroom to unpack all my belongings.
I had only made it up the first flight of stairs before I heard a charming yet unfamiliar voice say "you need some help with that?"
I quickly turned around and locked eyes with a very handsome blonde boy who seemed to be about 16-17.
"Uhh who are you and why are you in our house...?" I questioned the stranger
"Oh haha yeah sorry I'm tate, tate Langdon, I'm your neighbor and I just decided to see if you guys needed any help." He said with a smile
"Oh well nice to meet you tate I'm y/n, and yeah I sure could use some help with these boxes if you don't mind" I said with a small laugh.
Tate and I made it up to my room and he started to help me unpack, but all I could focus on was how beautiful he was.
About 20 minutes into us chatting and unpacking I heard a bit of shuffling coming from behind my door I opened it and saw a pretty little girl on the other side.
"Oh uh who are you sweetheart" I asked trying to sound polite even though I was weirded out that these strangers kept popping up out of nowhere.
"Ha tate is this your little girlfriend?" The girl spoke
"Addy stop go back Home" He Said trying to sound serious but I could tell he was trying hard to hide his smile.
As the little girl left downstairs tate spoke again,
"Sorry about that, That girl is my sister addy and she can be a pest at sometimes" he apologized
"Oh don't worry about it she was just being curious!" I said sounding reassuring
Me and tate spent the rest of the day getting to know eachother and we didn't even notice that it was now 10 pm.
"Oh my it's 10 haha I should get going" tate said
"Oh yeah haha well I'll see you tomorrow, and thanks for helping me I appreciate it a lot" I said
"Of course " He Said with a smile and made his way down the stairs and out the door.
"Who was that" my fathers voice called from my open door.
"No one dad just out neighbor being friendly" I said annoyed
"Yeah sure "friendly", anyways I don't want you hanging out with him" he said seriously
"Yeah, yeah sure bye dad" I said shutting my door
"I'm serious y/n" he said
"Okay dad I get it" I said
Of course I wasn't going to listen to my dad, But now I need to find a way to see tate again without my dad going all protective mode on me.
