Today's Sunday. The day that I dread the most out of weekdays.
This day was the 'Lets make friends' date day. This day had come for three years and I still couldn't get a hold of myself.
I was pacing in my room thinking to myself I can do this, I can do this, I can....Who am I kidding I can't do this. I never could.
Since my parents have died I've gotten less and less detached with people.
There was a knock on my door.
"What?!" I said frustrated and annoyed.
"They'll be here," Amie was interrupted by the doorbell "Shell!"
I'd been living with my Aunt Amie for two years know. My mom wrote her will early and it said when I die I want my sister Amie to get custody of my child Shelby Michelle McWitt.
"I'm not coming out of my room so don't try!" I yelled to Amie.
"Last door on the left." I heard Amie's muffled voice say. Next thing I know their at my door.
"Shell?" A lovely male voice said.
I opened the door slightly.
"Amie told me alot about you guys." I said in a rushed breath.
"Same with you." He said with a grin on his face.
"Warren is it ? You have a sister Niki, right."
"Yah, That's my name and my sister."
Then out of nowhere a girl's voice said,"Hi!" Her voice was surprising, soft but loud.
"Hi Niki right?" I said still behind the door.
"Yah. I'm guessing you liked to be called shell?" Niki asked in a polite tone.
"Yah, even though it's a thing you can find on the beach." I said.
We all laughed.
Then I thought they seemed really nice. I decided that I would come out and talk to them face to face.
"Hold on a second." I said while closing my eyes.
I shut the door. Took a deep breath and opened the door.
I saw there faces more clearly know and I stared for a long time.
Didn't mean to but, I did.
Warren and Niki were the most beautiful people I've ever seen.
I gave Warren a quick look he wore worn skinny jeans, a yellow flannel shirt, and a black skull cap.
I thought to myself but yet so clean cut. Right before I take my eyes off of him I notice his eyes.
That clear blue color. Just like my dad's eyes.
Then I looked at niki, the complete opposite of Warren. She had light brown hair and the lightest green eyes.
When I came back to reality Warrens eyes were on the floor.
"I'm sorry didn't mean to freak you out but your eyes reminds me so much of my Dad's."
"He's alright Shell. Don't worry." Niki said with a smile.

"We just moved here from the east cost. New York to be exact." Warren stated.
"Wow! I lived on the east coast to. New jersey."
We were all eating dinner. Amie prepared a dinner she would never make on a weekday.
"So Shell why are you living here with Amie?" Warren asked.
Amie looked at me with a panic stricken glare.
I smiled to let her know it was ok.
"My parents were killed the day I graduated eighth grade. The funny thing was they didn't notice anything until the third day after they were dead. Two bite marks exactly two inches apart."
Warrens face was neutral I didn't get a sorry or anything. Nothing.
I was hurt.
A half-an-hour later they were gone. Amie and I were in the kitchen cleaning up.
"He had eyes just like dad. Just like his."
Amie had just ignored what I had just said. Amie never liked to think about her dead sister and brother in law, my parents.
At that Amie and I finished cleaning and went to bed.
I went to sleep thinking of how tomorrow would go for me.
