Melissa P.O.V

Matthew Espinosa was staring at me, what the hell! We didn't say anything for a few seconds  until he finally spoke,

"Hey Mel? Is it?" He asked, he knew who I was!

"Yeah" I smile, he lent his hand down towards mine... Why?

"Umm you can grab it and I'll pull you up", he smiled.  Well that was embarrassing.

"Oh sorry I was just... Thinking", I took his hand as he pulled me up.

"So what are you doing here anyway?" he asked, I had to breath and think of my response, don't tell him my life story but don't be blunt.

"Well my mum's pregnant and they want to upgrade house so I think it's either this other place we were just at or thi-" I turn around to look at the house but it was nothing like I expected! I hadn't noticed before but it was huge! It looked so... Modern.

"Wait.. Why are you here?" I asked, a bit confused.

"Oh I live next door, my best friend used to live here but he moved to New York, I just wanted to see who would move in next to me", his eyes were so beautiful, I was lost in them.

"Umm well I should go, I've got some things to do back at home, see you later Melissa", he smiled and walked off towards his house. He just called me Melissa... All I could do was stand there until I heard a door open.

I turned around to see mum and dad walk out of the house along with a realtor, they all looked pleased,

"Are we getting the house?" I asked still in my daze from the spell Matt casted on me, they didn't say anything but instead they both smiled and walked over towards the car, I opened my door and seated myself as I buckled. I looked out my window one last time taking in the scenery... My possible new home. I looked over at Matt's house, it was pretty big, our house's were around the same size, I scanned his upstairs balcony and then noticed it was so close to ours, maybe two meters away with a tree in-between them, I glanced back over at his house once more before dad turned the car on and that's when we met eyes, Matt was looking right at me through his window. He smiled then closed back his curtain, oh my gosh he was perfect, I had well not really liked him but I've always felt something whenever I saw him ever since High School started, we had about three hundred students in our year level so he had never noticed me well at least I never thought he did, he was one of the key football stars at our school so yeah he played football and always hung out with all his mates 'the boys', there were the typical cheerleaders who even though I hate the stereotype given to the term 'cheerleader' and the stigma,  I was apart of the little society I mean it's not that bad the girls are actually quite.. nice? Then the artist's who would always come out to the football field and draw some scenery, the boring chilled out people who would lay under tree's doing God knows what, our school was stereotypical basically, the emo's and nerd's, singers and dancers... All stereotypes in their own groups ignoring each others presence.

We got home and I walk into my room shutting the door only a little behind me, its almost nine and I feel so tired! I dropped on my bed and did nothing for two minutes,

"Start packing we're leaving in three days", I hear dad call out.

"WHAT!" I yell, three days! I lift my head up and hear footsteps... Ash my dog walks into the room so I close the door and sit on the floor with her,

"Up up Ash, get on my bed", she jumps up and drops,

"Good girl"I smile to myself then I start the search for a box under my bed and so I can start packing, first all my photo's and albums, then iPods and anything little, after that I get up and pack my laptop along with my iPad and some clothes. I'm so exhausted! I walk over to my bed and drop,
