The Life of Shy.

My name is Megan Harris and I am in the tenth grade.. Well, starting this off like this makes me seem so boring. Well, I kind of am, after all, in a way..

Today was the day me and my step dad who was also my best friend were moving out, FINALLY!!!!!!! Well, I am pretty excited because we don't have to live with my nagging and annoying excuse of a mother you might think I am being heartless now but you will soon understand why.

It was Friday and we were packing our stuff in our amazing new house in Jeffrey's bay, it was just going to be me and my step dad, who had basically become more like a real father and mother to me (:

The boys in the block helped us pack our stuff, we were neighbors with my best girlfriend Layla who was nothing like me with her green eyes and her incredible ginger hair made her one of the prettiest girls in school.. My grandmother came to fetch me, I was going to sleep at her place while our place was getting fixed, I would stay until Sunday then head to boarding school later that day after church.

It was finally the next Friday after that agonizing week at school, when I got home, I came to the sight of my stupid older brother who was like a "man child" so you would say. He blew me kisses just so he could embarrass me in front of his friends, knowing I was shy, but being over protective at the same time, I finally got the courage to greet his friends who greeted back so warmly except this guy who was wearing black pants and a black hoodie who I thought was rather rude and bleak looking judging from his attire.

Layla came after I'd changed to white shorts and a hoodie and we walked to a field near my house, the gate was closed so you had to slip in between the fence, the guys who were helping us pack were there and the guy in black too but he was at the far end sucking face with some blonde girl. He then walked over to us and I saw he was quite the looker, but I was never that easily attracted to guys, seeing as i was religious, shy, never had a real boyfriend.. its sad but i cyber dated. He was repremanding people and i jumped in and volunteered to play, being the only girl who was going to cricket, he didnt seem to take much notice of me but i took the bat and stood on my position..

When the game started, It was basically all about seeing who can bat the ball the furthest, he bowled and i missed the first two strikes but hit the third quite far.. as i was making rounds I slipped and fell flat on my back, the whole of my back was dirty and muddy seeing it had rained earlier. I burst out laughing and everyone followed, the " guy in black " walked away unimpressed but i couldnt care, my dad called told me it was late and i had to go home when I walked past him he chuckled and said my black cleans up nice I grinned at him...

I took a shower and as I got to my phone a guy named "Jer" had added me on Bbm without thinking twice I accepted, I asked who he was and he just kept beating around the bush about it.. So I let it be and fell asleep instantly, the next day It was back to grandma's house, I didn't mind it there It got quite weird though seeing It was just me and her at times, but she listened to my teenage bull seeing she also took a motherly role in my life, Sunday It was church again and I took church in another town who my other best friend who was also my roommate at school lived in, her name was Brittany.. She had pretty natural thick locks and hazel eyes, she had beautiful tanned skin. When I just finished with Sunday school the "mysterious" he was at it again, bothering and spamming my bbm do, I had decided to remove him, when we got to school "Alexander Girl's school" an all girls boarding school, see why I have no boyfriend?? They take our phones as we enter the gates, it was like a juvenile.. I couldn't text until after classes for the worthless hour they allow us to use it before having to eat the cardboard they call food.. Later Monday, during my one hour session I got my phone back and this "Jer" had invited me, he told me his name was Jeremy and I shouldn't delete him and he'd changed his profile picture and I realized it was the guy in black.
