Nick's POV
Did that really just happen?
I can't get Ms. Cocoa words out my head, constantly saying, "That's it! They are my Romeo and Juliet"
I started walking to the bus alone, scared of what my girlfriend would think. I don't know if I even want to sit with her.
But I did anyways.
I sat next to Selena, not saying a word. She was babbling on and on about junior drama…"I can't believe that home wrecker. She is trying to ruin our relationship. If Ms. Cocoa chose me it would have been bet-"
I just had to cut her off, "whatever…"
She noticed I wasn't into the conversion and gave me a look like 'you have to have all eyes on me'.
Why all of a sudden she is an annoyance to me. I couldn't put my finger on it why. Then Miley came on the bus. She didn't even look at me. But all the girls look at me. Like they want me as their girlfriend, but she looked annoyed like something happen.
She ended up sitting alone. And the whole ride home I was staring at her.
Then I was back to reality with Selena's whiny voice, "Hello! Your suppose to leave now!" I forgot I was the first stop. All I said was bye to Selena. And she replied with, "Love you babe."
Love you? I don't think so. I'm not even close to love. I'm still in the second grade 'like like you' phase.
I got off the bus and noticed something else. Miley got off the same stop. But she wasn't on the bus this morning? I got to my house and she was still walking….to the house next door! WHAT? I didn't even now the house next door was even for sale. Well now I have to sit next to her in chemistry, be the main character with her, and now neighbors!
"Wow, Miley is our neighbor," Joe screamed to Miley. All she did was turn around in smile. What a beautiful smile.
NICK STOP IT! You have a girlfriend that loves you. I mean like likes you.
But I still don't like that word love.
I walked into the house and I noticed mom was making food for dinner. Already, wow. I noticed for once Kevin was home without Danielle. That's a first. I asked mom why she was making a lot of food. And all she said was we are having a get together with the neighbors. Oh damn. I hope it's the Richardson's and not who I'm thinking of.
"Exactly where is the get together being held?" I asked. Mom replied, "next door."
All of a sudden my heart was racing and I felt really hot. And I choked out the words, "which house?"
"The new neighbors now stop asking me 20 questions and do your homework!"
I walked upstairs to my room to calm down and some how explain to my girlfriend what I'm doing tonight because I know she is going to text me and ask.
And then I heard a guitar coming from outside.
