Strings

Chapter 5

When I woke up a felt a fresh breeze hit my face. "oh I must've left the window open last night." I got up to go close the window when i looked outside a piece of memory came back. I remembered when i used to talk to the little red haired boy next door. As i was looking out my window in that little boys old room was a the guy i bumped into yesterday.

I gasped and he went to turn my direction when i quickly closed my window. "That was a close one" i breathed ploping down on my bed. I got my phone and texted Jazmine saying goodmorning.

I went out to my kitchen and poured myself some cereal. As I was eating my Coca puffs my mom woke up. "good morning your majesty." I said putting my spoon in my bowl.

"hi sweetie." my mom kissed me. "I invited the Mendes family aka the new neighbors over for dinner tomorrow. That means today is clean up day. I have decided that i am going to mop and dust the whole house. You are gong to be in charge of the basement. The basement shouldnt be too hard, just try not to unplug anything down there"

"But we are only gonna eat with them. Why the basement?"

"Well it needs to be cleaned."

i sighed.

"oh yea I also need help deciding what to make for our guests."

"ok i got you mom."

After a long day of cleaning me and my mom managed to make your house spotless. Lets just hope my cat wont mess things up by the time we wake up. Me and my mom were watching High School Musical 2 untill she fell asleep about two minutes into the movie. I shut off the tv after the movie finished and let my mom sleep. I got dressed in my jammies and coverd my mom with a blanket. Before i fell asleep in my bed i made sure the window was closed.

When I looked out the window I saw that guy, Shawn. He was singing something; but i couldnt make out what he was saying because his window was closed. I craked a small smile.

I could see the passion in his brown eyes and it was just so intreging. He had his hair messey as if he just woke up. It is 2 am so maybe he woke up in the middle of the night. I just could keep my eyes off him. I looked away. I dont even know this guy, I need to stop fantasizing. I shook my head and went to bed trying to get my mind off him.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Morning sprung as if I only gotten 30 seconds of sleep. I was awoken by the sound of a cat scratching on my door. "Emma!" i yelled at my cat. "shut up! Im trying to get some shut eye!"

My mom opened my room door and Emma jumped on my bed laying aginst my legs that were hidden under a thin blanket.

"Sweetie its 10 we have to get ready." my mom said sitting on the edge of my bed.

"But I thought we already did everything." I turned to face my mom. "we cleaned, got food, and uhm yea we did everything."

"Well not quite. I just looked in my closet and I dont have any formal clothing. So we are going to go out shopping for a dress. You probably need one too. The last time you wore a dress was God knows how long ago." my mom looked around. "so yea get up, get dressed, eat then we will be on our way."

My mom and I are on our way home from dress shopping. My mom got a floral red dress that was in between fitting and flowing. I got a light pink dress that was fitting with long sleeves and white pumps to go with it. When we arive home we are going to make small last minute preperations. Such as add some decorations and make sure the house smells nice, the usual.
