The Move

Chapter 9

I was finally home, that was such a long day. My mum picked me up from school, but I asked about school buses and my bus is only a 3 minute walk, so from now on i'll be getting that to and from school everyday, great. I did what I had been doing for the past week, getting in, running upstairs, shoving on a bikini and lounging by the pool for hours.  I had my headphones in, and was trying to soak up the summer sun but I could not get that boy out of my head, he was so gorgeous. He had short brown hair, which he swept to the side, with perfect white teeth and  small nose, with big brown eyes, and big eyebrows. His jawbone was so damn defined I thought I was dreaming, he was tall, around 6'1, and skinny, but any bet he had abs..

It was dinner and my family questioned me about my first day at an America High school, I said it went great, however I failed to mention both 'Sammy', and that I made 0 friends. My brothers first day went well too, my mum is looking for a small job, and my dad doesn't start his new job till tomorrow, everything was going well.

I FaceTime'd the girls, and Nathan all in the space of an hour, and told them about my first day, again I didn't mention Sammy, although I was asked by Hannah, Alice, Megan, and Danielle about the guys here, I said they were average, nothing special, I lied. I knew they would report back to Nathan, who also questioned if I had 'met anybody' aka 'had I fucked anyone else yet'..

The next morning was the same as yesterdays, a rush to get ready. Today, I wore a pair of black skinny jeans with an orange crop top, that had thin straps around my neck, with a pair of Topshop heeled boots that I loved. I straightened my hair today, with a middle parting, Nathan loved it like this. I applied the same amount of make-up as yesterday, and I knew in the back of my mind it was because of him. I left the house just on time for the bus and got on it, there wasn't many people on it, a few younger girls, and a boy that's in my year, or grade as they call it here. I got to school and checked my timetable, first I had English and then I had Math, fuck, Math.

English went well, I think I even made a friend, her name was Emily, she was absolutely gorgeous. She had short-ish brown hair, was probably around 5'9 and was hilarious. 3 girls came up up to me literally fangirling, "YOU'RE FROM ENGLAND?" "OMFG YOUR ACCENT SAY TEA AND SCONES SAY CHEERIO SAY HELLO..." I literally had that for an hour, you can imagine. Next lesson was what I was dreading..I rushed to the N corridor, hoping I would be there before him, but he had beat me to it. I walked in, although there was only around 5 or 6 people in the class, the teacher wasn't even here yet. I assumed we took the same seats as before, because Sammy was in the same seat as yesterday. I walked over to my seat trying my hardest to ignore him but I couldn't help myself by taking a peek, he was wearing a red OBEY shirt with black skinny jeans, fuck. I got to my seat, turned around and sat down, I could literally feel his eyes on my ass. I didn't even have time to tuck my chair under my desk before I got a tap on the shoulder, I assumed it was him and turned around, to my surprise, it was.

"Hey (Y/N)" He said

I started blushing already, why was no one here? I checked the clock and realized I had been let out of English 10 minutes early and Mrs Smith wouldn't be here for at least another 8, this was a trap

"Hey Sammy" I said

"How are you?"

"I'm good thanks, you?"

"I'm great.." His mind seemed to be working, trying to find something to say

"...I'm sorry I just fucking love your accent and I want to hear you speak, I just have nothing else to say without sounding like a creep" He said

"Hahahahaha. Well, tell me about yourself?" I said, turning my chair around, class didn't start for a while, so I might as well talk to him

"..Okaaay, my name is Samuel Wilkinson I am 17 years old, I live in Omaha, Nebraska. I have 2 bestfriends who both have the same name, urm.."

"Really? Wow you're so interesting, please tell me more!" I mocked him

"Shut up!" He said, "Okay miss adventourous, tell me about yourself" I was leaning on his desk now, we were pretty close

"Well my name is (Y/N), I'm 17 years old and I'm from London, England. I moved to this shitty city.." 

"OI Omaha isn't shitty it's actua-" I winked at him, telling him I was joking and he shut up, smirking

"Because of my dads job, I have a best friend called Hannah and a boyfriend named Nathan."

I looked at his face when I mentioned Nathan, wanting to witness his reaction, he simply smirked, looked away for a second and looked back at me, staring into my eyes and clenching his jaw, almost accepting it as a challenge..

"Okay everyone, settle down" Mrs Smith said,  I smiled at Sammy and swiveled around in my seat, class had started.

I got home that evening with a smile on my face, God knows why. I checked my phone to see a text from an unknown number, it was an American number, Omaha area code. I opened it, it read:

"Hey (Y/N) It's Emily! You gave me your number earlier, I just wondered whether you wanted to go for a walk tonight? I could show you around the area, I only live a few blocks away. I know where your house is..without sounding like a creep lmao.. I'll knock at say, 6? x"

I replied with "Okay, sounds good, see you then x" I was so excited, someone actually wanted to be my friend. I was also excited to explore the area, and spend time getting to know Emily, I think we could be good friends. I told my mum what I was doing and she almost sounded proud, I laughed. I changed from my jeans into a pair of white cotton shorts and a baggy crop top, with some sandals, it was still boiling outside. I told mum and dad not to wait up, and that I would eat dinner when I got in, and before I knew it, it was 6pm.

Emily knocked on the door in virtually the same outfit as me, I could tell from the offset this was going to be a good friendship, plus her eyebrows were soo nice, i'm a pain for eyebrows. And her accent was bliss to my ears, I felt like I was in a movie everytime she spoke. I shut the door behind me, and our adventure begain.
