Chapter 2:

I skipped school so I could work on unpacking more. I had finished my room by the end of the day. I called Drea after dinner.
'Hey.' I said.
'Hey! I'm so glad you called!' She practically screamed.
'I know. How are you?' I asked.
'Good. And yourself?'
'Lonely.'
'Aw, no friends yet?'
'Nope.' I sighed.
'What about cute boys?'
'Well, there was this one guy, he's like my neighbor.'
'Oh!' She sqweeled. I regreted bringing up Bam instantly.
'He lives up the road from me a ways. I haven't seen him up close yet, but from a distance he's cute.' I tried to explain.
'Lucky! You know how it is here.'
'How's Jake?' I asked changing the subject.
'Still with Stef, sorry.'
'Hey, it's not your fault he couldn't see me when I was right there.'
'I guess.'
There was a faint knock and the dogs ran to the door.
'Hey, can you hang on a minute, someones at the door.'
'Yeah, sure.' Drea said.
I got up and went to the door wondering who this could be and peeped through the peep hole.
'Drea! The cute guy is here! With his mom and brother!' I whispered harshly.
'Well, don't be rude! Open the door.' She said.
I opened it plastering on a smile.
'Hi. Can I help you?' I asked.
'Hi, I'm April Margera. I'm your new neighbor. These are my sons, Jess and Bam.' She said introducing them. Jess whispered something to Bam and they both laughed.
'Nice to meet you. I'm Rian.' I said. 'Let me get my mom. MOM!'
'What Ri?' She asked coming out of the bathroom.
'These are the neighbors the Margera's.' I said introducing them.
'Oh! I'm Heather! Come in, come in!'
April came in followed by Jess and Bam. Bam was much cuter up close. I thought to myself. My mother took April into the kitchen to put the pie she had brought into the fridge.
'Where are you from?' Jess asked.
'Uh...' He had caught me completely off guard. 'New Hampshire.'
'That's far.' Bam said.
'Yeah...' I said awkwardly.
'What grade are you in?' Bam asked.
'Freshman.' I said. 'I start at East High tomorrow.'
'Oh sweet!' Bam said. 'Me too! I mean, I'm not starting but I go there. I'm a freshman too.'
I giggled and Drea, who I was still on the phone, did too saying, 'Was that him?'
'Yeah.' I whispered.
'He sounds so cute!'
'Shut up, Drea!'
'Come on, boys.' April said stepping out. 'Nice to meet you Rian.'
'You too, April.' I said.
'I'll see you tomorrow?' Bam asked.
'Yeah.' I said trying to hide my smile.
'Bye.' He said as I shut the door.
