Amber

When school finally ended, Lizzy decided to drive Amber back home. After saying their goodbyes, Amber went up the stairs that led to her house.

She skipped happily around the living room, knowing she had the highest mark for her Math test in her class. Even though this was not her first time getting first in class, she never get used to always being the top student.

For once, she felt really special for being smart. At least there is one thing she is good at which is getting excellent grades for her studies.

She wasn't really good at any other activities such as Art, Music nor Dancing.

She groaned when she remembers the time she joined Dance Practice. Everyone started laughing their ass off when she fell flat on the face. Someone tripped her while she was about to show her ''moves''. Jessica.

She felt a wave of fear rush through her. She remember the little incident in class with Jessica and Drew. A chill ran down her spine when she pictured how Jessica was glaring at her back then. And how Drew held her back in the empty classroom.

DING DONG

The doorbell rang, making Amber jump. Who could that be? Her mind wonder. Her parents couldn't be coming home this early. Maybe it is the postman. She thought. So she went up to the door.

Peeping at the tiny hole of the door, it was a guy. He was quite tall and doesn't look like the postman around this neighbourhood.  He was showing his back towards the door.

Who is he?

She opens the door and the boy turn to her. The first thing that got Amber staring at was his eyes. He has the most beautiful eyes-They were green. His dirty blonde hair was swept back and rose red lips curved upwards when he saw her. He was wearing a navy blue shirt with jeans that showed off his tone body.

''Hi, I'm Eric Parker'' He greeted with his deep voice.

He looked at her, waiting for her respond. But she just stood there staring at him with her mouth wide open.

Damn he is hot.

When Amber realise how long she had been staring, she felt her cheeks heat up.

''uhm sorry, I'm Amber Rose. B-but you can call me Amber. Can I h-help you?'' she stuttered nervously.

Amusement sparkled in Eric's eyes as he see how nervous she was.

''Hey Amber, I just moved in here. And I thought since we are neighbours who are living side by side, maybe we could be friends.''

Amber nodded quickly. Oh. So he was the new neighbour everyone has been talking about lately, she thought. Okay what to say? What to say?

A soft chuckle could be heard, making Amber look at Eric again.

''What's so funny?'' Amber asked, furrowing her brows in confusion.

Eric grinned widely, showing his dimples. ''You.''

''What about me?''

''You just look utterly adorable when you are nervous.'' He chuckled again.

Amber swore her cheeks now were redder than before. She just looked down on her shoes, not knowing what to say.

I just met him and now he thinks I'm adorable?

'Well, I gotta get going Amber. It's nice meeting you. I'll see you around!''  His bright smile was infectious, lighting up the surroundings. He said goodbye before walking back to the house which was beside hers.
