Michael's POV

_____________________

2 days ago

"Michael we are going to be having company for the next three months, you should know her." I remember this now, at the time I wasn't really paying attention to what she said. Then again, when do I ever do. 

Present day

"MICHAEL COME DOWNSTAIRS!" my mom screams. I groan loudly. Why does she always scream, is she incapable of walking upstairs and knocking on my door like a normal person? As I stomp down the stairs I see my mother chatting it up with some weird looking short blonde haired lady.

"What!?" I blurt.

Then I see her, a girl who looks about my age. She has long brown hair, very pale skin, and shes wearing black skinny jeans with a red flannel and converse. We make eye contact for a second, then she looks away. Her eyes are so green, I feel like I remember them. Stop it Michael. 

"Michael this is Marchelin"

"She likes to go by Macy now." the blonde lady pointed out.

My mom gives me the say something look.

I just said "Hi." I mentally slapped myself. Shit, wait what do I care? She just looked up at me and waved.

"Michael can you show her the guest bedroom?" my mom asks me. I just nod. Macy grabs her bag and what looks like a guitar case, and says goodbye to her mom. I lead up the stairs to the room besides my room. "Here it is." I say. I try to remember why this girl is staying with us, I should probably pay attention to my mom more. She mutters a "Thanks." and walks into the room shutting the door.

Macy's POV
_____________

The boys name is Michael, where the hell have I heard that name before. Surely I would remember someone with bright red hair. After he shows me my room, I tell him thanks and shut the door on him. The room is basically bare. All though it is very large there's not much in it. There is a bed in the side with two bedside tables surrounding it. I set my bag and guitar down on it and look at the rest of the room. There is a old looking vanity on the wall of the door and two other doors on the opposite wall which I am assuming is a closet and a bathroom. I walk to one door and open it up. "Holy shit." I whisper. The closet is huge, like it is the size of my attic. 

I walk out of the closet and plop down on the bed, getting my laptop out. I put in my headphones and serf through my usual sites. I do this for about 4 hours because I really do not want to interact with any of the other people living in this house. Around five I hear a knock on the door. "Macy I've made some spaghetti if you are hungry, your mom said that you liked it." Karen spoke through the door. I get up to the door, opening it and following her downstairs to their kitchen. It smells amazing. I see Michael sitting at the end of the long table already eating.

Karen gives me a plate and tells me to help myself. After I have gotten all of my food I go sit at the table where Karen and Michael are now sitting. I sit on the side of the table and eat my food quietly. This is very awkward. 

"So Macy what grade are you in now?" Karen questions.

"I'm a junior." I responded.

"Oh! So you would be in the same grade as Michael!"

"Would be?" I ask.

Michael pipes in saying "I dropped out because I'm in a band"

"Oh" I muttered. We all just continued eating and no one really talked after that. 

After dinner I help bring plates to the sink, and offer to help with the dishes but got turned down. So I just go back up to my temporary room. It was about 7:30 so I decided to get ready for bed. I headed to the door which I assumed was the bathroom, I was correct. I grabbed my small black tote bag and brought it with me. I went straight to the sink and put my hair into a messy bun and took off my makeup and etc.

I put on some shorts and keep the same shirt on, then I went straight to bed, I was sleepy from always getting 6 or less hours of sleep on weekdays. I put in my headphones in and fell asleep.

BEEP 

I woke up to an horrible obnoxious noise waking me from my wonderful sleep. I looked around still half asleep; wondering what the heck that was. I turn to my side and see my phone lit up with a new text message. It was my best friend Cammie, shes also my only friend. People think that I'm strange at my school, they just don't know me. Cammie and I have been friends sense.. forever I guess. 

Cammie:)

Hey wanna hang today???

I replyed back to her asking what she wanted to do. After a while of debating we decided on going to the coffee shop/bookstore in town. It wasn't to far away from my house, and it is our favorite place because we both love coffee and reading. I told her that I'd meet her there at 12.

I got out of bed and looked at the time 11:01, I have an hour. I get up out of bed and walk down the stairs to see Karen sitting at the table drinking coffee. She tells me where everything is and says that she has to go do some errands and will be back around five to make supper, and to help myself to whatever. I just decided on fruit loops, I sit down on the table and eat in silence something that I'm use to. 

I then go back upstairs into the bathroom to take a shower. I grab my clothes but I can't find any towels, so I walk aimlessly around the halls trying to find another bathroom or something. "This house is huge." I whisper to myself.

"Need help?" I quickly turn around to see the boy with red hair standing infrount of me, he is wearing sweatpants and a Blink-182 shirt. 

"Uhm yeah sorry Michael right?" I ask

"Yeah, are you looking for something?" he questions me looking right into my eyes.

"Uhm do you have any extra towels?" Man, why do I keep saying uhm!?

"Yup." he says popping the p. "there in this closet right here." He leads me to a closet near by filled with towels and washcloths.

I mumble a thanks while grabbing a white fluffy towel from the top of the stack, and turn around to see Michael standing right behind me towering over me.

"Where do I know you from?"  he asks leaning on the wall beside him. He looks very attractive like that, but I don't even know him. For all I know he could be some child malester, and I don't want to be in a relasionship right now. 

"I don't know, nor do I care" I said with a sigh.

"You're quite the sarcastic little thing arn't you?" he said getting off the wall and walking away. 

"Dick." I muttered under my breath, I didn't think he heard me until I heard him call "I heard that."
