When I get home, I walk into the kitchen where I here my mother talking to some other people.

"Uhm, hello," I start to say as I walk in. "Marlene! come in! These are our lovely neighbors a couple houses down!" My mother says.

"Hello, darling. I'm Yesenia Wilkinson, and this is my husband Marcus." Yesenia said, with a bright smile.

"It's very nice to meet you all." I say.

I dismiss myself from the kitchen, and go up to my room. I grab a book, and sit outside in my balcony.

I read "PAPER TOWNS" by John Green. I read to about chapter 3, when I hear my mother calling me. "Marlene! Come down here, there's someone we would like you to meet!" She yells. I but my book on the seat I was sitting on, and go downstairs.

I enter the living room to see Mr. and Mrs. Wilkinson sitting there with a boy next to them.

He stands up to introduce himself, when I see who it is.

"Sam?" I say. "Hazel. Hi. This is just weird." he says, scratching the back part of his neck.

"I see you two know each other? well Marlene, sweetie, show Sam around the house! they're our neighbors now!" My mother says.

I gesture Sam to follow me and we walk up the stairs.

"What a coincidence?" I say, laughing he laughs along. "So your name is Marlene?" He asks. "Yes, but people call me Hazel for my eyes." I answer.

"I don't need you to tour me around your house, so I can just go back downstairs." He says.

"Why don't you just come in my room? It's not finished, though, so it's quite plain, but I worked with what I had. I'm going to go buy more stuff tomorrow." I say, entering my room.

I sit on my bed, as he walks around, examining my room. "It's pretty just the way it is. You probably just need a little couch or something. And a shelf for all these books. You read?" he says laughing.

"Yes I do," I say crossing my arms. "What's wrong with that?"

"Nothing." He says, looking at me smiling.

"Well let's sit in the balcony." I say. We walk out to the balcony and he sits on the seat in front of where I was sitting.

We start to talk about random stuff, and stare at the sun starting to set, until he asks me a question that I always try to avoid with anyone.

"So, did you have a boyfriend over there in North Carolina?" I sigh. "Yes I did. But he's a coward. He cheated on me, big time, and I will never forgive him for it." I say, liking down. "I'm sorry for bringing it up, but I have to ask. What happen?"

"I told you, he cheated on me big time. That's all you'll ever get. I just don't think I would ever be in a relationship for a long time." I say.

He nods, and we sit there in silence for a while. "You know I would never hurt you." he says, leaning towards me.

I look up at him blankly. "Well then, that's great, because we're not together so." I say, staring into his eyes. I start to see how beautiful his face is. Is eyebrows thick, but in good shape, pimples on his forehead, but you can't see them from afar, and his beautiful eyes. Just like mine, but he has his unique glow to them.

I realize I've been staring at him this whole time, because he starts to laugh. "What?" he says. "Uh, nothing." I say, blushing. He smirks but doesn't say anything.

We go back to talking about random things, until Sam's parents call him down, because they are leaving.

"Well I'll see you around, you know where to find me." He says, with a wink.

We stand their just staring into each others eyes, when he starts to lean in. I hesitate, but don't stop him.

His lips soon connect with mine. He snakes his arms around my waist, and I around his neck. Our lips are moving in perfect sync. He pushes me into the wall, but instead, we trip on a chair.

He catches me on time, with an arm around my whole waist, and the other holding on to a railing, so he won't fall on me.

He pulls me up, and again, I'm the same position as earlier. I look in his eyes, full of lust in both mine and his.

I cough, and separate myself from him. "Y-your parents are waiting downstairs. You s-should go." I stutter, looking away.

"Yes, um I'll see you around." He says.

He walks towards me and grabs my hands. "Think about what I told you earlier." He says, and walks out my room.

You know I would never hurt you. His words repeat in my head, as I enter my room.

I change to my pjs, and lay in my bed. His face, his voice. They can't leave my head. I lay there, thinking about him, until I fall asleep.
