when i first saw you

  Leah

  Hey my name is Leah Raven. Me and my mom just moved to california and tomorrow i’m starting high school (well my new high school), i didn’t want to move to california but my mom got a new job offer so here we are.

  Leah have you got everything unpacked?

  Yeah mom. I love my mom and maybe this job will be successful but i don’t know if i will ever fit in here, we have moved around so much and i would make friends or do all this big stuff and then the next minute we would move and i would leave everything behind i still keep in touch with all my friends though i just wish i didn’t have to move so much.

  I go down into the kitchen to eat dinner mom make burger and french fries (something simple) it’s good like always.

  Mom after i eat i’m gonna take a shower and get ready for bed.

  Alright sweetie.

  After i eat i go and take a shower the water is really warm, then i get dressed and go to bed and hopefully i am ready for the next day.

  The next day.

  I walk into my new school and it’s huge really huge it has marble walls and carpeted floor (fancy right i know). I go to my homeroom class and introduce myself the kids seem nice though. I sit down in my seat and everything seems normal until he walks in, he has black hair and his skin is like a black silhouette it looks so smooth and his voice when he said hi to the teacher sounded mesmerizing, he’s wearing blue jeans a black shirt and a hoodie he sit’s right beside me but i can’t stop looking at him.

  Then my teacher introduces me to him,

  James, meet our new student leah raven Mrs. boyd said, and my heart starts beating fast i scared it’s gonna rip my chest open as he looks at me, he’s looking at me as if he’s interested.

  James: Nice to meet you leah james said

  Leah: Nice to meet you to i say

  A few hours later at lunch james sits beside me and my heart beats rapidly again, but i’ve warned myself not to get attached i could move

  James: Hey leah, why are you sitting by yourself do you have social issues or something?

  Leah: No james i don’t have social issues i’m just trying not to get too attached ( why am i telling him this, for some reason i feel like i can trust him)

  You might be reading a stolen copy. Visit Royal Road for the authentic version.

  james: Trying not get to attached ha what is that a quote

  leah: No just i don’t want make friends and then have to move again.

  james: Well leah you could get attached to me and ill never forget you

  (i blush at that)

  James: well i gotta go pumpkin see you later

  Leah: hey! Don’t call me pumpkin! (I shout after him)

  He just turns around and laughs

  After school i head home it’s a long walk which gives me some time to think about…him, why am i so attracted to him? He called me pumpkin dammit. That just makes my blood boil i am not a pumpkin but when he called me it made my heart skip a beat like he gave me a nickname but it also made me mad. God what am i going to do i don’t wanna get attached to this place and then a month later have to move. (sigh). When i look up and get out of my thoughts i realize i’m home so i walk into the door and i a greeted by a smell of pizza, (mmm pizza) i go into the kitchen and sit at the counter.

  Mom: hey honey how was school today

  Leah: it was good

  Mom: did you make nay friends or meet a cute boy?

  Leah: mom no i didn’t (i actually did)

  Mom: why sweetie?

  Leah: because i don't want to get to attached and then a month later i have to move again

  Mom: well about that, we will be here more than twwo years and by then you will be 18 and you can go to college and live your own life

  Leah: wait mom are you serious?

  Mom: yes i am

  Leah: AHHHH so... i can make friends and not have to leave

  Mom: yes leah hehe

  Leah: i'm gonna go finish unpacking i love you mom

  Mom: i love you to leah

  For the next few days everything has been great i've made a few friends...but i havn't seen James and although i don't know him at all except his name....i-i miss him and i can't stop thinking about him his hair is like anime hair (yes i'm a nerd i like anime)

  I can't stop thinking about touching his hair sometimes i zone out thinking about him,

  Mia: leah? Leah?

  Leah: hm? Yes

  Mia: you zoned out girl

  Leah: oh crap sorry

  Mia is my new bestie she knows everything about me she even knows i have a lil crush on James...but i don't think it's such a crush anymore, but i'm not good at expressing my feelings so i wouldn't know how to tell him i like him which he probably doesn't even like me.

  Mia: leah your doing it again

  Leah: huh? Oh sorry mia i zoned out again huh

  Mia: yeah you did, when are you gonna stop thinking about james?

  Leah: i don't know. I don't even know if he is into me

  Mia: well for one thing he's a player, last year he had like 10 girlfriends at once.

  Leah: really?

  Mia: yes, so i would watch out you could get hurt

  Mia: well girl i gotta go, my brother needs to go to football practice and i gotta take him, you need a ride home?

  Leah: yeah that would be great thanks

  One the way home i sit there in silence i can't help but think about James again, his skin is like chocolate and i love chocolate. Suddenly i hear Mia's brother giggle at something he's watching, his name is clay, he's a sweet kid, funny too. We arrive at my house and i tell Mia bye then i walk into my house and see someone standing in the living room it's a man then he turns around and it's James and my heart almost stops he's wearing sweat pants and just a t-shirt and i can see his arm muscles and my god he's so hot.

  Leah: (omg he just asked me out on a date) umm yeah t-thats fine (he's looking at me like he's been waiting for this moment) i jus have to go change

  James: well i have some things to do anyway so ill be back around 9:30 pm to pick you up

  Leah: yeah thats fine

  James: alright see you later pumpkin, bye

  Leah: bye

  After he leaves i go into my room and lay on my bed, what f what Mia said is true that he will only break my heart, i can't bear that, i could give it a try just for the hell of it, it would be worth it, yes that what ill do. I get up off my bed and start getting ready i wear a black dress and heals and i do my hair and makeup then i go into the living room and wait for him to come and pick me up for out first date.
