I woke up the next morning to the smell of breakfast or more specifically bacon. I sat up and stretched and slowly got out of bed. I groaned and walked over to the stack of boxes not far from my dresser since I had yet to put them away. I dug through my shirt box until I settled on a black v neck t-shirt that was a bit loose but didn't hide that I was a girl either. I threw that on top of my bed and moved boxes around until I found the one full of my pants and skirts. It didn't take long to decide on my knee length camo skirt with different patches all over it. I finished with the last box when I got my black bra and boyshorts and headed for the bathroom to shower.

I showered quickly and sat down at the table while I waited for mom to finish breakfast. She must be in a good mood this morning judging by all of the food on the counter. Just from where I was sitting I saw eggs, bacon, sausage, biscuits- which meant she made gravy and she loaded pancakes onto a nearby plate.

"Your dad should be down any minute and I want to make sure he has a good day on his first day of work so no nonsense about the move okay honey?" I nodded with a mouthfull of food. No wonder she cooked so much, dad operates better on a full stomach. I continued eating as dad came down the stairs, if I say so myself my dad wasn't too bad to look at. He was 33 with dark brown, almost black hair and ebony eyes. He was about 6'2 with only the slightest gray in his beard and still had a muscular build even though I knew the only workout he got was working on cars. That is his passion and something he passed onto me, even though my mother cringes everytime she sees me next to him when hes under a hood. I smiled to myself, yup my dad is the best.

He swooped in and kissed the top of my head and mom handed him his plate. He sat down to my right and grinned at me.

"So baby how did you like Tonio's kids?" I simply shrugged my shoulders.

"Mia seems nice and I didn't really talk to his son," who is a total effin hottie by the way. To only be 16 he already had a really muscular build but not too much just perfect to be snuggled into. His dark brown hair was trimmed perfectly and his eyes, boy were they intense! But of course I couldn't say any of that to my dad but I couldn't get into trouble for looking.

Dad started to eat so the conversation dropped and I was thankful for. I finished my breakfast and washed my plate then headed back to my bedroom. I heard my dad's car start up and soon after leave the driveway. I sighed and stared around my room, well no time like the present to get the rest of my room organized. It took me less than two hours to get everything done but I was officially all settled in. It was only 10:30 so it was still a bit to early to go to Mia's so I walked downstairs to see if my mom needed help.

When she told me she didn't I decided to take a walk around the block to check out my new neighborhood. I started down the right side of the street. Yeah a lot of them looked run down and jaded but they still had potential. I got lost in my own little world and didn't even notice the group of people standing there. I collided straight into some guy and hit the ground hard.

"HEY WATCH WHERE...are you okay?" He quickly lowered his voice I guess when he noticed I was a girl I guess. I saw a girl come up behind him laughing.

"Guess that's one way to get a girl to fall for ya Vince," she said with a smirk. She was definately a beauty with her black hair pulled up in a bun

with only two pieces falling into her face. She had a low cut tanktop on with cargo camo pants. I slowly stood up and turned bright red.

"I'm verrryyy sorrryyyy I shouuuullddd of beeen paying attteeennntttiiioon." They all started to laugh until they were intrupted by a deep voice.

"Leave the kid alone it was an accident." Everyone whined, "but Dom it was funny." In an instant everything went silent and they all moved away from me as Antonio's son Dominic approached me. I turned an even brighter shade of red. Leave it to me to embarrass myself in front of the hottie.

"You okay red?" I nodded and turned so I wasn't facing him.

"Yeah I'm okay thank you."

"What was your name again kid?"

"Roxanne De Luca, " I quietly whispered.

"Well Rox I know Mia has been waiting on you so why don't you go inside?" I shook my head at first then I realized I had to face my embarrassment sometime and I followed Dominic into the house. I heard all the whispers behind me but I shook them off.

As we entered the house I got quite a view of his shoulders. They were wide, sculpted and seemed capable of taking on the strength of the entire world. As we neared Mia's room he stopped and turned to face me.

"Don't let those assholes phase you.

They constantly clown," I nodded and followed him the rest of the way to Mia's room. He turned to me just before turning her door handle.

"Its Dom by the way the only one who calls me Dominic is my dad." I nodded again and he opened the door and Mia grinned at me.

Mia and I talked for hours and we were instant best friends. She was telling me all about school which started up in a couple of weeks and the boys there. Also which girls to avoid because they're skanks. I chuckled right along with her.

"So I literally collided with your brother's friend Vince. I was so mortified." She giggled.

"So what did you think of him? Your type?" I quickly shook my head.

"No not really, then again I don't really have a type." She shrugged.

"Want me to paint your nails?"

"I would love that."
