Holly turned out to be really nice, different but nice! It was after school, and we were still talking, on the way out to the parking lot.
"So, you've lived in Roswell all your life?" I asked her, in awe. How a could a person stand do live here, all their life? I could barely stand it, and I'd been here for barely five days!
"Unfortunately, yes." She replied, "I've never been out of New Mexico." She commented, sadly.
"I've been practically everywhere, but I've always in a way kind of wanted a town I could call home." I confessed, to her.
"Welcome home," She declared, with a smile. I grinned, I think actually I might like it here.
"Hey Jack, Rob!" I shouted, over to my brothers. They stood leaning against the car talking.
"How was the first day?" Rob asked, as I approached them.
"It was ok." I replied, shrugging. "Rob and Jack, this is Holly. Holly this is my brothers, Rob and Jack." I said introducing, each of them. Rob and Jack both gave slight waves, while Holly smiled shyly.
"Well, I better get going Charlie. It was nice meeting you Rob and Jack." She said, with a smile and started to walk off.
"Do you need a ride?" I asked, calling after her. She shook her head, but I persisted, "How are you getting home?" I questioned.
"Oh, I walk. I live pretty close, so…" She answered, I interrupted before she finished.
"C'mon, we'll give you a ride" I declared, ignoring her protest. Seeing that I wasn't going to give up, she sighed. And we all hopped in the car.
"So, Holly where do you live?" Rob asked, as we turned out of the parking lot. She pointed to a street, and told Rob the directions from there.
"This one." She said, pointing a old and Victorian house. The house didn't look well taken care of. The grass was over grown, and some of the shutters were hanging on a hinge. Giving the house an over all creepy haunted look. Rob stopped the car, and Holly slid out. "Thanks for the ride. I'll see you tomorrow Charlie." She called walking toward the house.
"Anytime, see ya Holly!" I responded. We were turning off of Holly's street, when I realize she forgot her History Book. "We gotta go back, she forgot a book."
"No, Charlie. She can probably do without it." Jack replied, in an irritated voice.
"Why, it will take practically two seconds." I complained, Rob rolled his eyes and turned the car around.
"Rob, what the hell? I gotta get home, before Mr. Patterson has a chance to call Mom." He whined, I laughed what a loser.
"Look, Jack. We drop off this book, then I'll promise you I'll impersonate Mom." I reasoned, he mumbled something that sounded like a yes. We drove down the street to Holly's house.
"Hurry!" Jack called, after me as I got out of the car. I jogged up to the front porch, trying to be extra careful on the old walk way. Every step I took got a creak out of the floor boards. I knocked, twice at the front door.
"Coming!" Holy called, from the back of the house. "Hello?" Holly said, as she open the door. She had her hair now tied back, and a baby was now hugging her hip.
"You forgot you're, text book." I stated, handing her the book. She gave me a smile and I passed her the book.
"Thanks so much, I gotta killer test tomorrow, and I would be dead without this." She responded. She was about to say something, when I heard the car honking. I looked over to see Jack reaching over to the steering wheel, honking, well Rob tried to remove his hand.
"I better go." I said, with a smile.
"Yeah, you better!" She replied, grinning. I ran down the path, and turned to wave when I got to the car. She waved slightly back, before turning and going inside. Leaving me with the question, who did that baby belong to?
"Could you of taken longer?" Jack asked, sarcastically. I rolled my eyes, as we started on the way home.
"So, you've lived in Roswell all your life?" I asked her, in awe. How a could a person stand do live here, all their life? I could barely stand it, and I'd been here for barely five days!
