The Bad Boy Who Can't Resist The Nerd

Chapter 1 New House

I didn't want to move, but my mom and dad thought that we should leave our past behind. I know what you're thinking, what could possibly happen. Well I'll tell you. My little brother had cancer and he didn't make it. That happened two months ago and we are still trying to wrap are heads around it. My little brother is gone and he was only ten years old. It's not like I had "roots" at my old school, but at least I knew some faces. I hate meeting new people because I'm really shy. I don't know if this move is going to be good or bad, but I'm going to try and make this work for my dad and moms sake. "Are we almost there?"

"Yes Sofia , we are on the street right now." My mom told me.

"This is a nice little neighborhood. " My dad said. I looked out the window." The houses are really close together." I told them.

"Yeah they are." My mom agreed with me.

"Well, here we are." My dad parked the car and we got out. This house is cute . It's blue with green grass and there is a white fence around the house. "Awwwe how cute." I said. My mom and dad picked a good house.

"Can I see my room?"

"Yeah it's the only one upstairs."

"Cool, thanks dad." I went upstairs and fell in love with my room right away. My room has purple walls and I have my own bathroom. The one thing I don't like about my room is that you can see into the neighbors room across from me. I really hope it's not a guy.

"Sofia come down and get your stuff from the car!" My mom yelled from down stairs.

"Okay mom coming!" I went and got a box from the car, but some skater was skateboarding when I was on the sidewalk and almost ran into me, but I backed up and guess what, I fell anyway. A guy was coming out of the house next to us and saw me on the ground. He said something to his friend, I think it was spanish, and came over to help ne up.

"Thank you" I said when he grabbed my hand and helped me up.

" no hay problema." He said.

"Pardon?" I asked.

"No problem." He said in a heavy spanish accent. So it was spanish.

" Well thank you anyway."

"So you're my new neighbor , si?"

"Umm, yeah I guess and you're my neighbor." I'm not good with conversations.

"You are funny, white girl."

"Well excuse me, but I have a name." I said while putting my hands on my hips.

"Well what is your name mamacita."

"My name is Sofia, whats yours? "

"It's Alejandro, but you can call me Alex." Alex said

"Well hello Alex it's nice to meet you." I put my hand out for a hand shake.

"It was nice to meet you to." He said and returned the hand shake. Some body beebed a loud horn that made me jump and Alex looked toward somebody who was waiting for him.

"Espere! (Hold on!)" He told the driver. He looked back at me and said. "Be careful with the rest of those boxes." Then he winked at me and left.
