Why did I fall for those eyes

Something new

" Liz? ", wakes me up my mother from my thoughts. I realised that my jaw reached the floor, and my bag was beside my feet. " Come on Lisa! What the hell is wrong with you!? " Exclaimed mum.

His eyes were locked on mine. I didn't dare to move. My mother pulled my hand, and dragged me inside. I scanned the room. A man, his wife and him. Freddy. My mother shut the door and made her way to the living room.

" Sup " Said Freddy. I could clearly hear my heart hammering over my ribs. " Hey " I say nervously. " I am- " Introduces Freddy to be cut by his phone ringing. God damn that! Phones always ring at wrong times!

" Hello babe, I miss you ways more! " Spoke the guy through the phone. I felt jealous. He's in a relationship then! But... what is he doing here !?!? What am I doing !? I noticed that everyone was staring at me.

I paced towards mum, and sat next to her. " Who are those people mumy? " I whispered in mum's ear. " Liz meet Alfred Green, Tiffany Green, and their son Freddy! Their house is the one directly in front of us! They just moved in today " Explained mum.

" Hello sir. Hello ma'am " I greeted our guests wearing a polite smile. The woman, Tiffany, was dressed in a black, formal suit with a crisp, white blouse under the suit's jacket. Her hair was collected neatly in a pony tail. It was that auburn colour.

From her appearance, I predicted that she was a banker. She wore a silver watch that ate her wrist, and took a part of her lower arm. A pair of diamond earrings were dangling from her ears. Unlike Tiffany, Alfred was casually dressed.

He wore jeans, and a Hollister shirt. The garments looked quiet expensive. His hair was combed neatly. Those neighbours looked rich. Within moments, Freddy joined us in the living room.

" Why don't you go for a walk with Fred Liz ? " Suggested mum. Oh my... Unsure what to do or say, I remained silent. " I'd like that! " Announced Freddy cutting the silence. I gave him a smile still unsure what to say. Mum and his parents looked pleased.

I stood up, and started towards the door. He followed me. Opening the door, I saw dad getting out his keys to unlock the door. " Hello sweetie, I see you met our new neighbours! " said dad. " Yes daddy, we're going for a walk. Mum's suggestion! " I reply frantically. " Have fun! " says my father. Patting my shoulder, dad went past me into the house.

We get out, and closed the door behind us. I stared at the sky. Puzzled, I wondered how bewildered was this boy earlier, and how easy going he is now! It was a full moon. The spherical, white figure wandering in the sky; bathed everything in its silver light.

" So, I think I saw you earlier today. At the principal's office? "
" yeah " I reply. " Why are you so tame and quiet? It's not like I'm gonna bite you babe! " Chuckles Fred. BABE !? What the hell !? He called me babe !? " I'm not shy. It's just that I'm not used to you and .... " I gapped.

Oh no ... I wanted to defend myself, but I ended up sticking myself in the worst possible situation! My heart is going to break my ribs. He raised a brow at me.

" And what? " Questions Freddy. Shit! I wanted to say your eyes are charmingly amazing, and they're making me panic. No way in hell I'll confess that!

" And.... And I'm not the type of girl who talks to boys, so I find it nerve wrecking! " I blurt out at supersonic speed. He gives me a sly look. " Is it for that reason, or it's 'cause you find my eyes so charming? " He says whilst wiggling his brows and sticking his tongue out.

My cheeks turn into a deep shade of red. " Wait ! NO! I was joking! " He added when he realised that I walked in the opposite way back to my house. " WAIT ! " He shouted grabbing my arm. I jerk away.

" What do you want from me? You're just a new neighbour it's not like we're friends! " I boast. My eyes are glossy. I'm astonished. How did I say that to the cute guy who got me drooling earlier!? He remained silent. Shocked I assumed.

" Don't you have a girlfriend? " I ask.
" I do " he replied. " Then go text you're baby, call her, just anything! " I say stupidly. He'll think I have a crush on him! Honestly speaking, I think I do. For instance, when he said I do, I felt something stir inside me. Jealousy. Anger!

" My baby? What is it that's annoying you!? I was just joking around. We didn't even introduce ourselves! " He Exclaimed. " Okay green eyed boy " I reply placidly when I realised I made a big fuss out of nothing.

" Hazel eyed girl, my name is Freddy. Call me Fred. " He introduces himself charmingly. " And my name is Lisa. Call me Liz " I attempt to copy him. We both giggle. " So what is it with you and the principal? " Questions Fred.

" The teacher freaked me, so I left class and showed them what rebellion means at his office then boom! Hus anger was at the verge, so he got me expelled for two days! " I explained.
" That's why I never chose Miss Molly's class! " Miss Molly ? " Hey are you a senior too? " I ask. "Yes- " Trimming his words, his parents show from the door.

" Can you give me your number? " Asked Fred. " Yeah sure! " I'm feeling over the moon. He hands me his phone, and I typed my number. I can feel him staring at me. Those green magnificent- " Good night Liz ! " He says smiling while taking the phone back.

" Sweet dreams Fred ". His parents reach us. " Good night sweet Liz! " They say kindly in unison. " Good night" I softly reply. I watch them ride the car. Fred waved to me goodbye and wore his jacket. The most noticeable thing he's wearing, is that smile of his on his handsome face.

When they pull out of the parking lot, I hop jubilantly to our door; humming a soft, romantic melody. I feel overjoyed. But then, reality slaps me hard when I saw my school bag.
I'm expelled.
