this is a story about Alessia Giordano. Alessia was born in Italia, at a young age she had moved to New York with her mother. Her mother gives her a late notice that they will be moving back to Rome..
A whole day had passed and luckily today's Sunday and we don't have school, as well as yesterday. My mother and the Rossi's had gone out to eat breakfast while Camilla, Niccolo and I were sleeping. I decided to get out of bed. Did all my necessities in the restroom and head to the kitchen. Camila was already up. Early bird . "Good morning Alessia" "Good morning" I replied back. I decided to make pancakes and a few scrambled eggs "vuio la colazione?" (Do you want breakfast" I asked , "sì, per favore e grazie" I nodded. We then see a tall figure, Niccolo. "Morning" he said, we replied. "wow Alessia making me breakfast" he smirked. "ne vuio un po' " (do you want some) "sì, grazie alessia" he said, I laughed. We all sat at the dining table eating our breakfast. "So Alessia there's a party tomorrow at Brando's if you want to go" Niccolo said "I'll think about it, I want him to invite me himself" I said jokingly. They both laughed as well knowing I was joking. "What time is it at anyways" I said "starts at 7:00 p.m" Camila said answering back. On a school night ? And on a Monday woww these people are crazy, I thought. joking. I got a message, from sarah.
Sarah: heyy sorry I have not replied, I've just been busy with school and our time difference is the worst . Ale: yes it is omg. How's it going for you ? Sarah: good so far, met a few new people in my class, force to talk to them bc you're gone .. jk
I laughed at her joke not realizing they were both staring at me.
ale: loll, i got invited to a party
"Who are you texting, you're smiling so much" Camila asked waiting for a "texting my bf" response but no "it's my bestfriend from NY, sarah" I said "how is she, can you send me her insta" Niccolo said I replied saying "you're funny" and laughed. he laughs it off as well since he was only joking. I go back to texting Sarah.
Sarah: omgg really when and what are you gonna wear 😍 Ale: literally tomorrow on a Monday 😴. Not sure yet. I'll update you when it comes !! Sarah: okayyy, well gtg bye :)
Niccolo got up and surprisingly he went to wash his plate. Me and Camilla walk over to him and hand him our plates as well. We both laugh and he says "sul serio"(seriously) we laugh and walk off. Me and Camilla go to the living room and she decides to put a movie on and says "quando hai finito vieni con noi, Niccolò" (when you're done come join us) "nah, non mi piacete ragazzi" (nah, I don't like you guys) he said jokingly bc we took our plates for him to wash. It feels nice getting along with them, maybe this is how close we were before ? My thoughts get interrupted as Niccolo jumped onto the couch in between us. (Idiota) Camilla says. We all just laugh together. we all just fell asleep during the movie. My head was on Niccolo's shoulder, Camilla was laying on his leg and he was just stuck in between us. We all woke up to someone saying "siamo qui" (we're here) it was Mr.Rossi. We all slowly woke up. I realized and I was on Niccolo's shoulder , I quickly looked at him and apologized "scusa" (sorry) "va bene" Niccolo laughed and said.
Hours have passed
"Alessia, we're going out later with brando and chiara, you should come" Camilla said. "Okay" I just said. I was thinking about the picture Mattheo had posted with Niccolo and I thought about asking Camilla but then again it's not my business. I got up from my desk and go use the restroom. I had bumped into someone "stai attenta Alessia" he said smiling. It was Niccolo who I had bumped into. "Scusa" I said smiling awkwardly. I was getting ready to go out with them. I don't even know if Niccolo knows I'm going, it'd be awkard if I just enter his car without him knowing I'm going with them. Whatever. I go back into my room and change. "Hey Alessia, let's go" Camilla said. I got up, got money and left. I didn't even tell my mom, I'm sure it's fine, she's sleeping anyways. We got to a park. I just realized I was the only one that actually dressed in jeans. They could've told me we were going to be playing basketball. As we're getting off and walking to the court we see Chiara and Brando just sitting waiting for us. They get up once they see us and walk towards us, they're smiling and waving. Chiara runs up to Niccolo and says "ciao" as she gives him a hug. She also says "Hey Cami, Hey Alessia" we both say hi back and smile. Camilla goes and gives her a hug as well. Brando comes behind Chiara "sup" and dabs Niccolo up. He walk toward Camilla and gives her a side hug. He walks towards me smiling "ciao ale" and goes in for a hug. Not just a side hug but a full one. Both hand on my back. "Hey brando" I say and ofc I go in for the hug . He called me Ale ? I just realized. No one has called me ale except for my mom and sarah. Of course I don't mind, all my friends call me ale. "So who's on whose team?" Niccolo asked. "Noi contro la ragazze" (us vs the girls) Brando says and laughs. "Non è giusto, voi ragazzi vincerete"(that's not fair you guys will win) Camilla says as she jokingly slaps Brando on the shoulder. I don't know how I feel playing in jeans.. "va bene, abbiamo Alessia, sono sicuro che sappia giocare" (its okay, we have Alessia, I'm sure she knows how to play) Chiara says as she smiles. I just laugh because i don't know. I only have ever played soccer back in New York. Sarah and I were on the varsity team as our first year in high school. "Are you actually, show me some moves, Ale" Brando says. Niccolo laughs and pushes him jokingly. "Noo I don't" I say and laugh. "I don't know if I can play it jeans" I say. "You'll be fine Alessia, you're pro" Niccolo says. We all laugh at we he says. "Okay let's get started before it's too late" Camilla says. We're in the car heading home. I'm on my phone just swiping through insta. I clicked on Brando's story because he had posted something.

I laugh at the picture because it's Camilla shooting the basketball. I just swiped up and said
Ale: Pro
Not even a second passed and he already responds.
Brando: io o Camilla (me or Camilla) Ale: tu ovviamente (you obviously)
I said as a joke
Brando: grazie Ale, lo so 😎 (ty ale, Ik I am)
I laugh at what he said and just reacted to his message with a laughing emoji. We finally got home and we're all exhausted. School tomorrow again, so far I haven't been hating it. The next day *alarm goes off* I slowly wake up not ready to leave my bed. I get up to go to the restroom and do all my necessities. "Ale, Cami, Nicò, la colazione è pronta" (breakfast is ready) I hear my mom say. I do my hair into a braid, I felt lazy. After I head to the dining table and Niccolo was already sitting. My mom disappeared who knows where. "Goodmorning" I say and sit. "Morning Alessia" he says back. " where's Camilla" after I asked that she comes in the dining room "Morning" she says. We all say it back. "Niccolo, sai dov'è mia mamma?" (Dyk where my mom is at) I ask him. " she just left out and said she'll be right back" he says. I nod. We're heading to school as we are about to enter school someone crosses without looking "idiota" Niccolo says and honks the car. Then I look up and realize it's Mattheo. Mattheo flips Niccolo off. "Who is that" I say. I do know him and I sit next to him in class but I wanna know what happened between him and Niccolo. "è semplicemente Mattheo" Camila says. "Oh that's right I sit next to him" I say, acting like I didn't know or if I didn't remember. We enter class and Mattheo was already seated. "Hey" I say not trying to be rude. "Sup" he says back. I smile and sit. The teacher comes in, "class we will be working on a project" ugh I hate projects, I never liked projects or never even liked presenting them. Especially talking infront of a whole class. "You will be working with your partner" she says. I nod not really caring who I'll be working with. I sigh, do we really have to work on a project already. She talks more about the project and what we will be doing. "My house or yours" I hear Mattheo ask me. As I'm about to answer he says "yours, what time" well thanks for letting me answer, I think to myself. "Any time is good" I say. "I'll be there after school" he says. I nod but then I realize he will have to be going with Niccolo and Camilla as well. "hai bisogno di un passaggio?"(do you need a ride) I ask "nah I'm good thanks, just tag along with me since I'm already going to your house" he says. I smile and say "okay yeah". Hours have passed it lunch. I walk to the table where Camilla and the rest are. "Oh Camilla, I won't need a ride after school" "why" she asked "well I asked Mattheo to come over for the project" I say " oh..." she says looking at Niccolo. "You should tell Niccolo, yk since he's driving" she says. "Niccolo, I won't be needing a ride after school" I say. "Why" he asked. "Mattheo's going to our house after school" Camilla says. "Sul serio lui" he says, he looked either annoyed or mad, I couldn't tell. "It's for the project the professor assigned" I say. He scoffs and looks away. I decided to eat my lunch and I hear "you'll be fine Nico, he's only there for the project" Chiara said. "He's dangerous Chiara, yk after what happened, he can't be seen in my house" Niccolo said. I kept eating my food while everyone else was talking. It was after school and I was searching for Mattheo. There he was, smoking by the staircase again.
