**Next Day**
"Hey mom do you think you can make me a quick breakfast. Anything really" I ask as I start preparing for this unexpected, monkey filled day. I don't know okay. I just like monkeys. They're fun.
"Sure are you going to go anywhere?" she yelled from downstairs. Well damn, is she nosy or nah? Why did I just think that. I didn't reply straight away since I was still basically getting dressed. After putting a shirt over my head I quickly replied, "Yeah im just going to look around the neighborhood, familiarize myself with everything."
And just as I said I was out the door in minutes with my soccer shorts but sadly me and my forgetful self I still don't shoes on but my hungry side made sure to get a biscuit on the way!
"Dammit" I mumble under my breath. Running back inside and I grab my red vans and slip them on. When I'm back outside I look around to see what houses are what and what they look like because I really don't feel like getting lost today. I'll be too lazy to ask people where I am so I'll just get lost even more. A few yards down I see a boy and a little girl playing, what seems to look like tag. Cause I mean they're chasing each other and stuff but for all I know one of them can be a serial killer trying to catch there next victim. But against all odds, they probably are playing tag. From my not do well prescription glasses and from a load of squinting, it looks like they might be Skylnn and Hayes from last night. I start walking over there while I'm putting my hair up in a messy ponytail. I probably look like crap but nobody needs to know. They'll probably see it and run away like a Ninja and pretend they never saw me. I am like the slowest walking person on earth. I really am trying to be a turtle, considering I'm half one. I look behind me too make sure my inner turtle isn't bothering anybody. And to my luck nobody was there. Okay just three more feet before I get there. Okay why am I nervous? They're just people playing a game. Ha-ha talking in my head is quite fun. I think I'll do this more often.
"LEEAAAHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!" yelled skylnn. I look up from whatever the hell I was looking at and see her running or jogging towards me. I'm just not sure these days with kids. They're always so hyper and unpredictable.
"Hey Sky? Watcha doing?" I asked bending down to her height level.
"Im playing tag with Hayes!" she said really loud. I have a giant smile on my face. She's just so adorable! Before I can reply she grabs my hand and pulls me toward her yard and Hayes. Saying a quick hi to Hayes I sit down on the grass and take out my phone. I play on it for a while since I am really antisocial. Figures. Like which teen isn't? Ever since I found out what the magical iPhone was I was just glued to it. I hear a door slam and look up. Just when I look back down I feel a presence next to me. Are they just going to stand there? Just do something, I'm begging you. Okay this is starting to get annoying. I got some ground rules, not everybody may know if I don't tell them manually but people should be able to sense it off me. Anyway, when I'm on my phone don't even think about bothering me. You'll be better in the end, trust me.
"Hey"
I look up and see Nash and a smile makes it was to my face. Why am I smiling? I only met the kid a night ago.
"Hey what's up?" I replied annoyed after being disturbed on my phone. I told you I don't like being bothered when I'm on it.
"Okay im just going to be really straight forward here...." He said back. Okay now im nervous. What's he going to say? If it has something to do with how tall I am, I'm so leaving. Every freaking boy I know asks about it. Just because I'm 5'8 doesn't mean you ask where I get it from. Figure it out on your own cause I don't know either. Both my parents are short.
"Um...just wanted to say..... I really like your hair and your eye color. They're really nice." He continued. Really? I have such boring eyes. They're brown for crying out loud but they do sometimes have green in them which I don't mind. My mom says it's cause I'm Brazilian and that color eye is very common in Brazil. But my hair? it's dark brown with blond ombré. Nothing special to see.
"Um thanks? I ah really like your eyes. They remind me of a blue Jolly Rancher-sorry I'm still pretty hungry so don't mind that." This is officially awkward. I don't know what to say. It's like my mind only wants food. My and brain aren't homies right now.
"Thanks. That's defiantly a first but I like it. Anyway what I said earlier isn't what I wanted to say but I meant it though.Canigetyournumberplease?" He said that really fast it took me a moment to rethink about what he said. But after think about it over and over and understanding what he said, I hesitantly pass my phone over to him. He looks up at me with a heart warming smile and passed me his phone. I typed in my number and put my name as -Hungry Leah<3-. When I got my phone I realized he put his contact name - Blue Jolly Rancher-. I actually laughed out loud. I have him a playful shove and made him take a selfie for a contact picture. He made me do the same but he wanted to be in mine.
"So um you wanna show me around the neighborhood. I feel like I'll get lost if I go by myself." I asked to relieve the silence between us.
"I actually cant today. I have a flight to catch in two hours and imma head to airport soon. Sorry. I promise to show you around when I get back." He said.
"Oh sorry. Where are you going to go?"
"Orlando. Me, Hayes and eight other dudes are part of this thing called Magcon. Yeah we're able to meet a whole bunch of fans in wherever the creator plans for. It's pretty cool. All us guys are sort of vine famous on the app so yeah..." he said. I knew he was familiar.
"Um like how many followers?"
"About six million" My eyes widen at that number. Um okay my neighbor is vine famous like im totally okay with that. (Note the sarcasm)
"Damn. When you're gone make sure to text me since you are like my only friend here. But um otherwise have fun." Im not going to lie. Him saying he was leaving really brought my mood down a whole bunch. But like he said he gets to meet his fans and have a bunch of guys with him. I mean he must have the time of his life. I think I spaced out for a while because Nash is waving his hands in front of my face.
"Um what?"
"You sort of spaced out." He said like I didn't know. Of course I knew. Okay no I didn't.
"Sorry to interrupt kids but we really have to get going. Or else Nash here is going to be late for his flight" said Nash's mom. I smiled at her and nodded.
"Alright mom" said Nash. I just stood there in my own mind. Once she left us we were able to continue our conversation.
"So I guess this is bye for now. Or at least until I come back. Which won't be long at all, trust me" Nash said. I don't even look up at him when I reply.
"Yeah I guess. Make sure to have fun and just brighten up a bunch of fans days. Okay. "I said.
His mother called him over once again. And Nash just nodded towards her.
"Bye Leah " he gave me a kiss on the cheek. And let me just say I blushed deeply. The things a boy can do.
"Bye Jolly Rancher" and I gave him a kiss on the cheek in return. And with that he left. I waved as he got in the car and drove off with his family. I turn back around and head back home. While im walking I realize something grand.
I like Nash Grier.
If only I knew what this one thought brought to
