When i woke up the day after, i was set on facing Esteban and having a normal relationship with him as a friend and i was finally convinced that he wasn't a stalker ... don't blame me but let's admit, it was really strange.

I wore black skinny jeans with a blue striped T-shirt , then went to eat breakfast that Caleb had prepared , i'm lucky he loves cooking, it's not that i don't know how to cook but he was way better than me , then i received a message from Cassie saying she was going to pick me up for school . It  was great , finally i hadn't had to wake up too early to walk to school or bother waiting for a cab or a bus . She arrived at 7:45 AM, when i heard the the car's horn, i kissed my bro, picked my bag and headed to her car , when i saw him . Esteban was getting out of a house which was four houses away from mine, saying i was shocked was clearly an understatement , he waved to me and got into his blue car, and i headed to cassie's car, wondering how was all of this happening to me , actually i wasn't complaining he was really cute and i wanted to get to know him i just hoped he won't be a weirdo or a stalker, then cassie said :" you lucky little brat , you just saw a latino on chatroulette and here he is few houses away from you, i wish we had seen Joe Jonas or even Ian somerhalder ..." , i just looked at her and started laughing , Cassie was really funny sometimes, and we both loved that guy from Vampire Diaries , he sure was Hot, but i prefered Esteban's eyes, they were hypnotizing , and i liked how his skin was tanned and looked like Gold...shit, i shouldn't be comparing them, they're both out of reach , one of them was an international star and the other was just far away from me, i hadn't even had a decent conversation with him , at least direclty .We drove to school, went to our lockers to pick up some books,and went to our class , then i found him sitting on the same seat as yesterday,it's okay just sit there and talk normally, anyway you have to show him around...A little voice said in the back of my head, yes i had to act as usual , don't be stressed, don't be nervous, he's just a classmate...and a neighbor. 

I decided to go to my seat and put my bag on the desk, then i turned to him and said" thank you for yesterday , i really needed that schedule, but i always forget to write it down" , 

"you're welcome, i just got it from Bryan and i thought of you, Amelia", he answered. Great, he remembered my name, i kept looking at him wondering , and he probably had noticed it , because he said:"i'm not sure if you remember me but we met on that website few days ago, you probably don't bu..."

I cut him :"of course, i do , its wasn't that long ago", then he smiled at me,Oh that smile , better than somerhalder's smile for sure...Damn it Amelia, concentrate.


I've been brought up to reality when i realised he was talking to me "if you don't feel like showing me around , it's okay , there's that girl at the front seat who asked me to yesterday, but i hadn't answer her though, because i didn't know if you wanted to , so ?" , i immediately answered" yeah of course i want to , why wouldn't I ?" it came out more like a fact than a question and i had answered that fast because i knew the girl he was talking about was Melanie , a french girl who came to our school last year, and she started to mess around people especially guys , i mean she had more than a boyfriend and she was sleeping with every guy she wanted, but i didn't blame these guys even though they were like her puppies , she was really stunning more than pretty , she had short blonde hair with blue eyes making her look like an angel , even though everyone knows she was far from being an angel, and of course she was french, American guys loved french girls...what about argentinian ones ?

And here i was again thinking about him, then i turned and told him " i'll show you around right before lunch if you want ",he nodded and asked me, " and what about the project we're supposed to do ?" damn i really forgot about that one,"we can meet after school, this afternoon we have free periods, is it okay ?, then he just said alright and the teacher entered the classroom, ending our little converstion, we were starting to have a normal relationship ...awsome !!

when the bell rang once more , Esteban and I picked up our bags and i started to show him the whole school as slowly as possible. We went everywhere from the first floor to the fourth one , he saw the gymnasium  and was amazed by the stadium , we also went by the cafeteria, then we finally finished our tour then he quickly said goodbye, headed to his car and i started looking for cassie's car but haven't found it, so i took my phone out to send her a message  when i noticed i had a new message, and whom would it be ? Cassie , and she said

'i'm sorry Mel, i had to go with Steven , but i don't leave you alone you're probably gonna come back with that argentinian guy of yours"

Yeah sure, good way to push the guilt away Cassie...So i went by the boulevard to call a cab because i had already missed the bus. When suprisingly , a car stopped by,probably some kind of pervert, who wants to pick me up so i decided to ignore him, when the driver went out of the car i saw it was Esteban, and i felt embarrassed for ignoring him but i quickly wiped it away when he said " i saw you were waiting , so i thought about giving you a ride since we're neighbors, and we will have to meet this afternoon anyway so...", wasn't that really gentle ? of course it was but why was i feeling my stomach flipping ? but i just declared " thanks, i really need that one , if you let me i'll pay you back by treating you for lunch " where the hell did that came from..But i instantly corrected: " i mean as you said we'll have to study this afternoon we probably should get started early, so why don't we eat something and begin fastly ?", he looked at me for few seconds, and thought damn may be i went too far he'll think i'm totally crazy. Instead he got in the car while i stood outside embarrassed and not knowing what to do until he opened the door and said : " Alright, i'll let you but i'll be the one picking the restaurant " after this we were heading to that place and already started to have my mind going crazy and my heart beating hard...
