"Why hello there"
Moving trucks were pulling into the driveway. i looked out my window and watched all the stuff load off into the apartment that was staircases down from me. you were there, i heard something about you before you came.
your brown eyes gazed into mine quickly as i watched everybody unpack. i fell down into my couch hiding from those mysterious eyes of yours. i couldn't let you see me like this, at least not yet.
it was sunset; i remember the pretty purples and pinks and yellows in the sky. i focused on the camera that was in my hand, the white polaroid camera i had got for my birthday that year. you came outside and accidentally knocked it out of my hands. i remember mumbling so many things not knowing who you were.
you sat next to me. "nice camera" you said, i sighed and looked at the broken button, "correction, was a nice camera". you looked at me with a slight twist in your eye, "whats your name smart one?" you asked. "madi, just madi" i said quietly. " well hello, madi" you said and laughed. i looked at you and smiled. "do you mind me asking what your name is?" i looked you in the eyes. "names gabe, just gabe" you said and smiled as you held out your hand. i looked at your hand and laughed, i shook it and than quickly pulled my hand away. awkward silence overwhelmed us as we looked across the yard.
"i should probably be going, my mom needs some help with cleaning" i said gently, "okay, ill see you around i guess?" you asked. "umm..definitely" i smiled shyly. you looked me in the eyes. "see you around smart one" you said. i laughed and corrected you again, "names madi, just madi". you laughed and i shook my head and waved. i didnt really look back as i left just kept going up the stairs, how could i bare to look into your eyes again.
