"Here we are" ..he says in ...I think an Australian accent ...."ugh ...finally"we are greeted by a middle aged woman .
"Mr cage and miss---"
Dave hit me slightly on my guts with his elbow ...I then realised I was being questioned.
"Oh!"
"Erica Nick ma"....I give him a silent 'ouch ' while rubbing the spot ..."well here's your locker,your subjects and schedule...thank you" ...
On the way to class, we check out my schedule and Dave and I have all classes together except history ...."so erica ...this means I'll be with you in all your classes ?"...
"Yup"... "cool" .he nods his head slowly .Well let's see how that goes.
*****
At the cafeteria, I feel so many eyes on me.."what ,never had a new kid in school before?". I curse under my breath.I finally found a table but I wasn't the only one there.. there was pretty blonde girl with grey eyes , shoving a book in her face....
"Ummm...hi "?
"Hi"? She says happily.
"I'm Erica"
"Sandra"
"You new "
"Yeah "
"Nice to meet you" ...
Lunch was over ...I got into my sixth class for the day "chemistry" ..ugh...I came in pretty early so I got a seat in the front and surprisingly, Sandra was in my Class and right beside me .."hey its me again ...she gasps ..."Erica?".."you're in my Class" , "aaawwwweeessommeee"....as cheesy as she is I think i like her ...a lot ....
The rest over the day wasn't bad at all ...the bell rang and I was heading towards the exit
"Erica!"
"Erica!"
I look back only to see a sweaty Dave ,panting like he just ran around the world ...But that only made him look hotter .
"Ummm"...he says while scratching the back of his neck
"Can i drop you off" .."thanks but dad's already doing that".
Bu- ...
my phone starts vibrating. .it's dad
"Hey dad...where are you "
"Hey honey ..I cant pick you up today ...gotta attend a particular meeting...can u take the bus ".
"Yeah dad "
"Be safe ...love you"
"Love you too dad".
"Is the offer still on"..
"yes" ...he smiles ...
I raise my hands up in surrender ...."okay okay let's go" ...he throws his fist in the air ..."yes!"
The drive home was silent...
Lies!
It was hectic we kept arguing about which is better in jazz and high life
"Umm ..high life durhh"..I fold my arms across my chest .
"Have u ever listened to jazz music?..it's soothing you know"
"By soothing you mean depressing and sorrowful right" ...I raise an eyebrow and smirk
"you win okay ...I'll "try and listen to highlife"...he says while pouting .
I look out the window and point towards my house ..."really ...this is your house ?"
"Yeah...why ?"
"We're totally near distant neighbours..we turn towards a house only four blocks away.
"That's my house" ...
"really"?
"How Come I've never seen you around here?"
"I just moved here recently, my older house was in oak Dale..you know three minutes drive from here".
"Well...this is one of my house actually ...I moved here because its closer to school...,I've been attending owl heights since forever but it was always stressful ...so I'm here now"...he smiles not widely but madly. .
His face truns pale and he quickly changes the topic just when about to ask a question..
"So ...see you tomorrow right?".
"You know it "...I waved him goodbye
Really ...is that your best
"Bye high life"
"Bye jazz. ..
He drove away ...

Dave's pov
At home....I couldn't stop thinking about the fact that I almost blew it ...I'm not meant to tell anyone about me...but I mean Erica's not just any one ...You still have to be careful Dave...
"Careful about what" ...I almost jump, seeing my sister Marcy leaning on the door .
Shit I said everything out loud ,
"Nothing" ..I try smiling but it comes out weak .
"You're lying Dave" ...tell me about it
What...I'm just meant to tell you that I almost told a complete stranger I met yesterday our family secret ...pfftt..Yeah right ...
"I said nothing"...I said but colder.
"Whatever you're up to remember what dad said okay ?"
Yeah...whatever
I lay flat on my bed...thinking about her ...
Thinking about Erica...
