I close my door briskly after Jace walks into my room. The whole atmosphere between us being awkward and tense. "So, hi," I spoke with my palms growing clammy and my voice becoming shaky.
"Um, hey," he replied with an awkward smile.
"So, you are new here?" he questions with a raised eyebrow.
"Yup, haven't even lived here for an hour yet," I chuckle at his naivety. He smiles back at me. I giggle at our conversation. "How long have you been living here for?" I ask as we sit on my bed and I fold my knees towards me.
"Are we playing twenty questions? If so, then I have been living here since I was 4," He responds.
"Wow that's cool! Do you go to Gretchen High?"
"Yeah, are you going to go there as well?" Jace asks me.
"Sadly no, I'm going to Portsbay High." I reply. Jace shifts uncomfortably.
"Do you, um, want to be friends?" He asked.
"Duh," I say with a tone of sass. The next few hours are spent with us getting to know each other more, before his mom finally tells him its time to go. What a day! A new friend and a new house.
