There's a girl in my room! Double D thought to was a bit shocking to only other female that had been in his room was his mother. She really didn't count but, there she was in his room. Her hair cascaded down her back as she knelt down. Double D's mind played back how this came to be.
Minutes ago
"Ah,there she is!"Double D exclaimed to himself.
He had finally seen Donna a few days after the sat on the air-conditioning unit next to her grandmother's house. Her brown,poofy hair was pulled into a ponytail. Donna wore bright green tank top and a pair of blue glasses were off and her eyes were fixed toward the look on her face was peaceful.
Double D quickly ran back to his garage to retrieve the turtle food. He was a man of Double D would hate to make a bad impression on his new neighbor by not going through with his promise.
He spotted the small brown bag by his father's tools and grabbed walked out of the garage and crossed over into the Madaki yard.
Plus, She seems like a nice person to talk to.
Ever since they met, he had been replaying their conversation in his head over and took notice of the collection of Tolkien books that spilled out of her backpack after the fall.(He'd read most of the books and adored Tolkien!) He noticed how protective and gentle she was of the little turtle. She made him smile. There weren't too many other soft-spoken and gentle people within the cul-de-sac except for Double D, of course. He'd been teased forever about that.
"Why hello,"Double D called out to her when he was ten feet away.
Donna squinted in his direction and put on her glasses.
"Hi there,"Donna responded turning around on the air conditioner unit to face smiled warmly at Double D. He felt a strange warmth in his chest.
It could be the spaghetti from earlier.
Double D proudly thrust the turtle food towards Donna.
"I didn't forget what I promised earlier.I just never saw you outside again after that day."Double D told her and then flushed."Not that I was watching your house or anything because that would be odd and and,"he rambled and immediately shut his mouth.
Great,you've probably scared your new neighbor,Edward.
But to Double D's surprise, Donna looked at him appreciative.
"Thank you,"she beamed. "I'm glad you remembered and waited.I thought I would never have free time myself,"she said a bit bitterly.
Double D was a bit surprised by her change of tone.
"Oh?"he responded raising his eyebrow.
"Why's that?"he sat next to her on the scooted over to make probably had something to do with her D knew that would never win Citizen of the Year,but he never would have thought she would treat her relative cruelly.
Donna shook her head."My grandmother and I really don't see eye to eye,"Donna stated simply, but didn't go D didn't press seemed like that was a sensitive spot in her life that she didn't like to talk D quickly changed the subject.
"So where are you from.I've never seen you visit,but I've seen you aunt and uncle and your cousin,Akira over here .Am I correct?,"he asked genuinely interested.
Donna nodded frowning a bit.
Akira was dark skinned beauty with lovely mesmerizing brown attitude was awful so Double D steered cleared.
"I'm so sorry you've have the misfortune of meeting A-Nightmira and I'm from Greenwich Connecticut,"Donna laughed a bit.
Double D chuckled
"Well she's not that b-,"Double D paused remembering the time she swore at him and poured orange soda on him at the Fourth of July party last year after he accidentally stepped on her toe.
"Well,I stand corrected," he concluded."I'm not that fond of her,"he said.
Unlike you.
"Where did that come from,"Double D wonder aloud.
Donna looked at him puzzled.
"What was that?"she looked at him attentively.
Double D flushed and grabbed his shirt.
"Nothing,Its just the heat."
"Oh my,is it too much for you?Do you need to go inside?"she asked concerned.
Double D stood up quickly.
"Yes,that's it. We can go inside. My parents aren't home,"Double D suggested. He instantly clasped his hand over his mouth. He turned a bright scarlet realizing what he said. Donna shifted nervously on the unit.
"I-I-I mean I wouldn't want to cause conflict with your Grandmother by going over to her house,"he stammered.
Donna looked down timidly."Umm oh okay.I knew that,"She said quietly. She was a bit red herself.
"D-Do you like video games?My mother bought video games at a used shop for my PlayStation is this guitar one I want to-,"
"Guitar Hero?!"Donna cut in excited."I love that game so much!I still play it with my father to this very one do you have?"Donna gushed.
Double D smiled and sighed in relief.
Awkward situation averted.
"I have Guitar Hero 3,"He squeaked in response. Donna gasped in joy and grabbed Double D's hand.
"Let's go!"she said almost dragging him along.
Double D agreed as he clutched her soft feminine hand into his.
The summer heat was making him feel hot again.
-Currently-
"All done!"Donna chirped getting off her knees. She 'd run over next door quickly to get her guitar controller, so that the game would be multiplayer. She had hooked hers up and turned on the PlayStation. The intro theme reverberated through his room. Double D stared at how cute she was when she was excited.
What are you thinking Edward!He scolded himself.
Donna felt him looking at her and she winked.
"Its game time!"She declared .She shot up her left hand in a rock and roll D laughed.
"Yes,let's do this,"he declared and mimicked. Double D had no clue how to play. He had yet to touch the game.
Donna grinned widely and pressed play.
Before Double D knew it,three hours had gone by. With the songs coupled with Donna being there had been a blast for Double D. It was clear Double D wouldn't win against Donna,so the two began a co-op career on easy.
Double D found all the music to be incredibly addictive, especially,Sunshine Of Your Love despite the subtly vulgar mind and eyes wandered to Donna from time to time on that song causing him to mess up a bit.
"Filthy,filthy,"he scolded himself under his breath.
Donna took off the guitar controller from around her shoulder and placed it on the floor."Well, I'm pooped in a good way,"she said smiling ear to ear.
Her smile and satisfaction was D couldn't help but grin back at her lovely face.
"I'm glad you've had a splendid time,"Double D said to her. He stared off a bit blushing.
"And I'm very pleased you've had me over,Eddward,"Donna stomach did flip. Normally, he hated when people called him Eddward, but coming out of her lips it sounded absolutely beautiful.
He looked back up at her .She stared down at her it his imagination or was she blushing too?
"I-I was wondering if you would want to hang out more together,"Donna's voice was barely above a whisper. A warmth passed through Double knew now it wasn't summer heat nor spaghetti.
"Donna Madaki,"he said."It would be my absolute pleasure,"
Donna smiled before the loud rapping began on the door.
"DONNA,"an angry yet familiar voice bellowed.
