«the boy next door» (dylan obrien fanfic)

School :)

While I exited the house for the first day of Senior Year, I realized one thing. The 'For Sale' sign on the house next door had been removed, and in it's place was a blue old jeep, and a moving truck. I wondered who has become our new neighbors, as I climb into my grey jeep liberty. It's already the first day of my senior year, I'm 17, and I still get nervous on 'first day's. I drove to school and as I attempt to exit my car, I scrounge for my bag and phone which takes 5 minutes for some reason every time. I see something out of the corner of my eye that is acutely familiar. It's the blue jeep. Wow, I guess it's a teenager or maybe a teacher who moved next door. I get out of my car and drug clumsily towards the high-school entrance. Of course I trip over my vans shoelaces while walking through the door. Before I have time to hit the floor I am cought by muscley strong arms. I look up at beautiful brown eyes and amazing shaggy hair that has the right gel amount. And I ask his name and apologize for being a klutz.
Me: "Oh my, I'm so sorry. & who are you?"
His voice is the perfect ratio of deep and average when he answers me.
Dylan: "I'm Dylan,"
He is looking into my eyes deeply.
Me:"Hey that's a wonderful name-you're wonderful- I-I-I'm sorry my name is MacKenzie."
We are still unknowingly half standing-half sitting in the hall near the doors.
Dylan:"Oh I'm so sorry haha I'll help you,"
He most heroically claims.
Dylan:"And MacKenzie is the most beautiful name I've ever heard, you're beautiful-I-I-will just help you now heh."
Then Dylan lifts me up from my awkward backwards crouch position on the hall floors. He looks at me with his big Brown eyes.
Dylan:"Umm I should walk you to your locker so that you don't fall for-- I mean ON anyone else."
We both blush, and I agree to his offer.
Dylan:"SOOO are you new here too? Your  shy I see since you've barely spoken."
Me:"Oh yea I'm shy I guess. Um na I'm not new tho, wait-- you're the new boy next door to my house?"
Dylan: "Oh yea.. and just call me Dyl, my whole fam does and I want you to too."
He says this blushing even more than before.
Dyl:"I guess that makes my full name Dylan 'NEW KID' O'Brien."
As we are walking to my locker I realize 'HE'S NEW! HE PROBABLY NEEDS MORE HELP FINDING HIS LOCKER THAN I DO!'. I blurt out.
Me:"Maybe IIII should be walking you to find you're locker! Oh no 1st period is about to start.."
We run swiftly to both of our lockers.
Dyl:"well so, would it be ridiculous if I told you I have a lil crush on you?" I look down at my feet and back up at him.
Me:"Well I'm not that appealing soo,"
He passionately disagrees with me.
Dyl:"You're the most beautiful girl. Ever."
I give home a big blush cute smile.
Me:"Then no, because I may or may not have a crush on you also."
He winks at me, and I head to A.P. (advanced placement) biochemistry. I sit in my normal seat and realize that Dylan is in the desk next to me.
Me:"You have this class too? And the same hour as me? haha sweet."
He shows me his schedule and I realize we have all classes together. We both smile and listen to the A.P. biochem teacher lecture us on the first day basics of the class. Dylan has been playing footsie with my feet since the teacher began talking, his leg was touching mine, I doze off happily and admire my new mutual crush.
