I start hanging up things in my room. It still needs more things but I need something to make me feel more comfortable. You see this is all new to me.

I'm from the ghetto. All these big houses and nice clean blocks, I'm not used to. Now I have to go to a new school, make new friends.

I go outside in my balcony. The view is so nice. As I look down I can see the neighbors backyard. Holy Jesus, their pool is gross bro

There's green stuff and plastic balls and teddy bears. What in tarnation. It's kinda cool. I see someone come outside carrying a phone in their hand. He has light brown hair with blonde tips. His style is so nice. I can't see his face clearly since he's looking down at his phone but from where I was, he looked perfect.

As I'm casually just staring at this human and noticing his features like his jawline. So sharp it can cut someone. I can stare at him all day. Maybe this place won't be so bad after all.

"what the hell are you doing" my older brother says scaring the life out of me. I screamed really loud, I get scared easily and I hate being snuck up on. My scream was loud enough to catch his attention. Oh no. "Why are you just looking at him" my brother says which I'm pretty sure the boy next door heard.

He stared at me and I stared at him. He chuckled. Even though he wasn't close to me at all I can see his bright blue/green eyes glaring in the sun. So beautiful. You don't see people like that everyday in the ghetto.

I smiled and bit my lip. I bite my lip when I'm nervous. We just stared at each other. It wasn't an awkward stare. It was almost as if we were reading each other's mind.

"Emilio!!" I hear someone from inside the house yell. We snapped out of it and I looked away feeling slightly embarrassed and I realized my brother was gone. "Emilio what are you doing I've been calling you" a tall, white ,blond haired guy said.

Emilio. His name is Emilio. What a nice name. Our eyes met again. Emilio, Emilio, Emilio.

"Emilio bro what the hell are you looking at". The blonde haired guy looked up and saw me. He looks so familiar. Like too familiar.

It's Jake Paul.

My neighbor is Jake Paul. He looked up and then looked at Emilio. "Ou I see. I'm sorry to burst your bubble here, but I need you for something real quick" Before he went inside he took one last glance at me and smiled.

Was that real. Did that really just happen. I go back inside my room and finish unpacking my things.

There my room is ready. Scute. It's missing something. Maybe him here. I barely even know anything about him. Hopefully that'll change.
