I sighed as my dad drives into the state. It was the week before school and I was going into 7th grade. I was 13 turning 14 in a couple of months. Delaware looked kinda like Ohio. Although Ohio had more pickup trucks. I smile and readjust my glasses.
"Luke...hello...nerd!" My older brother says. I ignored him and pulled a notebook from my bookbag. I had been writing for at least a year now. My story was coming along good. I smile and pull a pen from my pocket and start to write. My little sister is sitting in the far back listening to music on her iPod. My brothers name was Jacob and my sisters was Amanda. Jacob looks at me and smacks my forehead. My mom turns and glares at him before turning back to her book. I sigh and continue writing.
We pulled up to our new house a hour later and I sigh. I would probably have to share a room with Jacob, again, so I was surprised when my dad lead me to my own room next to Amanda's. I smile and walk in. It was small, but I didn't need a big room, because I was considerably skinny. I place my bags in the closet as the moving truck pulls into the driveway. Great! I'll have my room set up soon! I think to myself. Forty minutes later I'm putting my posters up. There was harry potter and fall out boy but mostly MCR posters. I smile looking at my small room with my stereo system and small speakers. I put my phone on the charger and walk into the hall. I walk into Amanda's room and say "need any help?" She shakes her head and smiles gesturing to her worktable where she could draw whatever she desired. I smile and say "well if you need me I'll be taking a walk" she nods and I walk out. I was definitely not going to check on Jacob. I walk to the back door and my dad says "hey luke...where are you going?" I look at him and say "just going to take a walk...I'll be back in an hour or so" he nods and I walk out the door, taking in the sweet air. I sigh and walk towards the sidewalk. As I do I see two kids on bikes, they ride towards me and stop when they see I'm looking at them.
"What are you looking at, you nerd!" One yells. I quickly turn and walk in the opposite derection. The last thing I need is to make a enemy the same day I got here!
I walk through the back door ten minutes later dripping with mud and water. I sigh and walk up to my room to change.
