After Addy and I have our happy moment, we hear our names being called.
"Let's go see what's up," Addy says.
We head downstairs to see Jc holding a pink box and a boy with dirty blonde hair holding a blue box.
"Here you go, guys!" Connor says. Addy raced to the pink one then I run to the blue.
"Hi Zoe, I'm Ricky, I haven't been able to introduce myself," he says. I smile then I don't know what came into me but I get on my tippy toes and kiss him on the cheek. He chuckles and hands me the box. I look at Addy and she looks at me and we open our presents at the same time."A PHONE!!" We both exclaim. What I pulled out of the box was a blue iPhone 5s and Addy pulled out the same thing but in pink. I immediately hug Ricky so tight that I feel him get tense.
"Thank you thank you!!!" He laughs and I feel someone pick me up from behind I try to look behind me but as I do he starts tickling me and I squirm squirm squirm. He lets me catch my breath before he sets me down. As he lets me rest on the couch, I get a good look at him. He's wearing a beanie and his cheeks were so so so rosy. He had brown hair and a big smile.
"I'm Sam," he says
"I'm Zoe, well you already know that, I'm assuming,"
"Yeah.... But it's good to finally meet you," he says
"Pleasure to meet you too, kind sir," I say in my best British accent. I don't know why I'm suddenly not shy anymore. I've opened up.
"Oh yes miss, one more thing," he says in a British accent
"We must celebrate your coming with some tea and crumpets! Shall we?" He says
"We shall!" I say. Then I start laughing then he starts giggling. That's right. I said giggling. Sam's laugh was the cutest laugh ever. It sounded like.... Like.... I can't even explain. Then I start laughing harder about his laugh which makes him laugh even harder. I'm laughing so hard now that I start crying and my face is bright red. Then the weirdest thing happens. I hear
"Get away from her, Sam!" I start hearing cuss words and everything then I feel me lifted off the ground. Then I don't know what happened next because my eyes rolled into the back of my head and everything goes blank.
