Neighbours with the bad boy

Awkward situation

I was greeted by a lady holding out a bunch of flowers wearing a wide grin on her face. Standing next to her was the boy from the yard wearing the same smirk as before. Oh so this could get even more embarrassing!

"Hello new neighbours! We're the Reid's but you can call me Paula, this is my son Hunter and we live right next door!" She said quite friendly while pointing to her house which was the same house as the one I saw earlier. She handed the bunch of flowers and I took a whiff of them. They didn't smell like anything but flowers never smelt like anything. Hunter must have caught on to it because he was looking at me with an 'are you fucking kidding me' look. I blushed a deep red and invited them in.

"My mom will be right out, she's just clearing away the dishes" I told them as I went to get my mom. My mom walked out the kitchen and looked at me.

"Mom this is Paula and Hunter Reid, they live right next door and they've just gave us these wonderful flowers." I told my mum and her face lit up immediately.

"Why thank you! You didn't have to but isn't it lovely to have such generous and caring neighbours!" She asked enthusiastically and I nodded along with her. "Here honey, why don't you go put these in a vase for me, they are in the cupboard under the sink" she told me handing me the flowers. Just as I was about to leave the room Paula jumped in.

"Hunter why don't you go with her, you two could get to know each other seeing as you will probably go to the same school!" He looked at her then back at me and rolled his eyes. Charming! He got up off the couch and walked into the kitchen following me slowly. I walked to the sink and pulled out the vase and began to fill it with water. It was silent. I could her him breathing but that was the only noise coming from him.

"So..." I said trying to make conversation.

Nothing. He just looked at me like I had two heads and eight legs.

"What year are you in?" I tried again.

"Senior" he replied back. I waited for him to ask me what year I was in but that question never came.

"Yeah, me too" I sighed. He looked at me confused.

"What? Something on my face" I asked quite rudely.

"Yeah, eyes, nose and a mouth and two rather bushy eyebrows oh and-"

"Oh ha ha very funny, oh my god my sides are hurting, ow..." I said sarcastically in a monotone voice. He smirked at me and folded his arms over his muscular chest.

"Quite the joker aren't you?" He said standing up and walking over to me slowly. I halted in my steps and held the vase in my hands. He leaned closer to me and said quietly "too bad if I had to change that" I looked at him and he got closer and looked at me seriously. "Is that a threat" I whispered as he got closer to me. He was inches from my face when he whispered "I dunno, maybe it is". Just when I thought he was about to kiss me I felt him zap my sides with his fingers causing me to drop the vase. I looked down at the floor an at the shattered glass and water all around me then looked up at him shocked.

"Welcome to the neighbourhood or should I say... Welcome to hell". I carried on staring at him in shock when he turned round and said "oh wait, I didn't catch your name?" And as if on cue my mom and Paula walked into the kitchen to see what the noise was all about.

"Poppy! My vase! Oh no, are you hurt?" I could only look at him in shock. That bastard!

"We should get going, it was really lovely to see you Eleanor, Poppy." Paula said as she gathered her coat and bag.

"See you around school Poppy" he smirked at me and then left.

I helped my mom clean up the vase and told her that it slipped out of my hands, I got the feeling that I probably shouldn't tell my mom the truth, I don't think she'd believe me anyway so I left it at that. I walked up to my room and started preparing my bag for the next day because apparently I was going for my first day at my new school. I packed everything I needed and went and got a shower. I stepped into the shower and washed my hair with my orange shampoo and conditioner. When I got out I got straight into bed and set my alarm on my phone when a I received a text from an unknown number.

'See you at school tomorrow doll, I hope your ready for your first day of hell- H'. It could have only been Hunter but I wondered how he had gotten my number. I didn't give him it and I don't know anyone in the area to give my number too.

I ignored the text and switched my light off and got comfortable. I sat awake in bed thinking of how much I was going to hate school tomorrow and what types of tricks Hunter had in stall. I closed my eyes and let sleep take over me.
