8:34 pm

My parents and my brother went down to Walmart to get food shopping and left me to watch the house since I'm the responsible 16 year old .

I sit in my room listening to music when something hits my window and cracks the top corner . I go to my window and look out side and I don't see anyone in my garden and then my door goes . I walk down my stairs to the door and open it and there's a boy .

He's blonde ,tall, pale he's wearing baggy jeans and a jumper . He's really hot .
"Hi there , I'm Tate " he says hold his hand it to shake it so I do . his hands are cold , really cold .
" hi I'm ava " I say back trying to be cool
" basically I live next door to you and my dumb ass brother through a ball from his lacrosse stick and it hit your window he was to scared to come here himself cause he thinks your pretty I can now see what he's talking about " he says looking at my . Did he just call me pretty ?

" aw well you can come in and get it "I say stepping to the side to let him past .
" I've never been in here before " he says
" really well the back doors through there in the kitchen " I say pointing through
" okay so how does it feel " he says walking through and me following him
" what do you mean ?" I ask he goes out the door and picks up the ball and comes back inside and sits on the kitchen table
" well this house " he said
" I still don't get what you mean ?" I say
" you mean know one has told you what happened " he says making me nervous
" no? What happened" I say he smirks
" well your living in a house were some hung them self from the light in your hall " he says my mouth opens in shock he's still smirking
"your joking right " I ask
" no I'm afraid not princess her name was Amber she was my brothers girl friend she was a total whore but she hung her self so I guess she was a depressed whore " he says laughing
" that doesn't seem very funny " I say glaring at him
" well I'm just saying how it is but my brother got over it quick enough he's got a new girl friend " he says still laughing I stay silent
" look I'll show you " he says getting down from the table and walking through to my hall I walk after him and stand next to him
" she hung her self from there " he says pointing up I look up to the chandler I take a moment to try and thing about what he's just told me and then he grabs my shoulder and I scream
" fuck sake " I say punching him in the shoulder
" ohh you punch hard princess " he says laughing
" I think you should go you have your ball " I say to him walking forward and opening the door he walks out into the night but turns in the garden
" here pass me your hand " he says walking back I think about it put hold my hand out and he pulls out a pen and writes on my hand and walks away I look on my hand and he's wrote his number
" Tate why have you wrote your number on my hand ?" I ask
" so on Monday you don't have to walk to school completely alone princess " he says he turns and keeps walking
" Tate stop calling me princess " I shout
He turns still walking backwards
" okay Ava I won't call you princess , princess " he says smirking at me I watch him walk away into his house I walk back inside and close the door and sit on the floor with my back up against it .

I think about Tate I laugh a bit thinking about him calling me princess and then I look up to the chandler and remember how a teenage girl hung her self from it
