In a new town, like a new world, uncharted territory, this is where it begins. My name is Audrey Summers, I am moving to Arizona. This is so new for me, I've only been there once, it's so different from Washington. Will I meet new people? Will I like my school? I have no idea. My dad yelling up the stairs, "Aud, we are leaving in ten minutes! Finish getting your things in the moving truck!" I yell back "I will be down in a minute.", grabbing the last of my things, I dash down the stairs. "Dad, I'm ready when you are."  We have a 34 hour car ride, grabbing my phone and earbuds, then piling in to the car with me and my dad, we start going.

34 hours later...

When we finally get to Arizona, standing in front of the new house. It's 5:45 AM, all I want to do is sit in bed and cry, it's the middle of my sophomore year of highschool. I don't know anybody. My dad moved us, for work, more like he hated Washington, and didn't want to think about Mom. We are living in a fancy neighborhood, the houses are like mansions, which I knew my dad couldn't afford. I knew Mr. Brown, my dad's boss was paying for it. Why couldn't he have picked a small cottage? I start to unload my boxes, I knew some of my things where already here, like my bed, I've been sleeping on the floor for the past month. I walk inside, and there is a chandelier, and marble staircases. Everything is so nice and pristine, Why are we here? I notice a person staring at me, it looks like a butler, I walk over to him, and say," Hi i'm Audrey Summers, you can call me Aud.", he looks at me puzzled, does he not speak English? Then he says, "Nice to meet you Ms. Summers, I'm Andrew Martin, I'm here to help you and your family, here, if you need anything I can help you." I look relieved, the first thing I ask him is "Can you show me to my room?", he nods and starts walking up a staircase. We get to a set of french doors, he opens the door and walks in, there is a king size bed, with a purple comforter, and I look around the room, its amazing. I walk in and there is two more sets of french doors, I walk to one, and there is a bathroom, it has a vanity in it, with all the makeup and brushes I could think of! I walk to the other door, and it's a closet filled with brands, I have never even heard of. I walk over to my bed and there is a card on it. It says 

" Hi, you don't know me, but I'm going to the same school as you. If you need any help, I'm right next door. My name is Jared Montgomery, Mr. Brown has been talking about you for a few months now. ;)"

Mr. Brown has been talking about me for a few months, what the hell, I've only known about this for a month. I walk downstairs, and look for my box with my running gear in it. I grab my box run upstairs, put on my running shorts and shoes, then run. I think about all of the stuff my dad has said, he told me a month ago, but he's known for a few months. What is going on. I turn around, and run home, when a car slows down next to me, I run faster it keeps up with me. I stop and turn to look at the car, a person rolls down the window. He is gorgeous, has a perfectly chiseled jaw, a surfer tan, and has beautiful blonde hair, with light copper highlights, and bright blue eyes. He smiles, and my heart skips a beat, perfect white teeth, with a crooked smile. "Hi, I'm Jared Montgomery. How long have you been running you look exhausted." I've died, why would somebody as gorgeous has him be talking to a nobody like me. "Nice to meet you Jared, I'm Audrey Summer, but all of my friends call me Aud. I have no idea, I just kinda run, until my head is clear.", he look confused, then asked, "Maybe we could run together sometime, maybe not that fast, I can give you a ride back to your house, if you want.",  I looked surprised he asked, "I can finish its only about 20 more minutes till I get back, thanks though.". He didn't move he just sat there, "What?" I asked, "Get in." He answered, I stood there for a minute, then got in his car. We drove in silence, on the way to the house. Once we got there, I looked over and thanked him, then quickly got out of the car. On my way to the front door he just sat there is in his car with a huge smile on his face. I turned around and looked at him, and said "What?", he just shrugged and drove off.
