I glance out the window of the car, it had just begun to drizzle rain on this glumly day. I lean forward to the window and breath my hot breath on it, causing steam to form. I place my finger on the cold window and draw a smiley face. I continue to look at all the passing houses, my mom slows down a little and pulls into a driveway and parks the vehicle. I open my door and look out at our house. Our new house.

"Come one Isabel it's not that bad" my mom said trying to raise my spirits
I looked at her with a blank expression

We stared at each other for a minute and then bursted out in laughter.
" come on" she said and slung an arm around my shoulder.
We walked into the house, the house was so empty. Our furniture had just arrived when we did so we still had to put everything together. It was very nice though because it was just like a new blank slate for a new life.
I walked around the house and found my room. It had already been painted a light gray color, I smiled because I knew that my mom had picked that color because I wanted a change from my hot pink bedroom at our last house, I had picked the pink when I was 5 years old and I hadn't changed it. I walk over to the window seat and open the window letting in fresh air, my mother had said that the house had been vacant for a couple of years now and that's why it smelled musky in here, almost like wet basement. I smile at that smell, oddly it brought back many memories of our old house, how if there was ever a very bad rain our basement would flood and my mother and I would go get pots and pans and fill them up with all the water and throw it out of the house, we would splash around it in once we got tired.

I skip down the stairs and into the kitchen where my mother was, well where I thought she was, I heard voices so I walked over quickly to the front door and peaked over through the window to the front yard where my mom was, I walked out to see four boys talking with my mother.

"oh, good there she is" my mother said and all eyes were on me. The one boy with dark brown hair smiled at me and I could feel a blush start to creep its way onto my cheeks. " sweet heart this is our neighbor and his friends" I smiled and walked next to my mother

"hi my name is Isabel" I said
"these boys go to the same school that you will be attending" I nodded my head
"cool, what grade are you all in" I asked

"we are all in 12 grade" said the tall brown haired boy that smiled at me earlier

" wait who are they" said my little brother jack as he stood on our front steps.

''our neighbors" I said to him" and don't be rude" I glared at him.

"hmmm" was all he said and then ran back inside the house

" well we have to go" the one boy said looking at another boy worriedly

" Alright um well we'll see you around then" the one boy said as they walked to their house.
I walked into the house then I dawned on me.... I never even asked their names

I walked into the living room which was currently cluttered with boxes, I grabbed a box that said Isabel's bed sheets and made my way up to my new room. I opened up the box and a waft of scent came out, it smelled like the old house, god was I going to miss living there, but I have new adventures here, I made my bed and then went downstairs into another box that had some of my stuff in it. I carried it upstairs and started to unpack my clothes and put them away in my closet. I got about half way through all my clothes boxes when I had a rush of tiredness wash over me and then I decided to go get a shower.

After my shower I was feeling like I had a little more energy to burn so I started to hang my twinkle lights.

"cute pj shorts" I heard someone say, I looked towards my door but it was closed, I then looked outside my window and I saw him standing there. I looked down at my shorts
