‘They try to deny what they feeling for each other, mostly Shane, hell anyone can see that.

‘But I been around her my whole life every since we where kids.’

‘I remember when I first moved into this town, my mom had just been threw another divorce and wanted to leave the big city, the neighborhood was filled with kids, running around with skateboards, bikes, tricycles, and kids playing hide-go-seek.’

‘I remember seeing a lanky boy or what I thought was a boy climbing up a tree, staring at me in my new home, with a pair of binoculars, I was busy trying to tow some boxes to my upstairs room, I looked out my window when I saw him, shaggy hair, tore up jeans, with a dark green shirt, I remember it so well because the next thing I did was introduce myself. I want to take off my skirt but my mom insist on me acting more lady like, I scoff and run out the house, at least she approved of my pixie tank top, a girl can believe in fairy tales every once in awhile.

‘I glance up in the tree and catch him looking down at me, a straight face.

‘I blushed, when he smiled. He slowly climbed down the trees then jumps the rest of the way.

‘When he stood up to his normal height I remember feeling a bit intimidated, “Hi.”

Shane:- “Heynewbie.” My cheeks where own fire, just the sound of that deep voice made feel weightless.’

“I’m Alice,” ‘I out stretch my hand; he looked at it and shook it, a strong grasp.

“Shane,”

‘He smiled, “How old are you.”

“Eleven, I’ll be 12 in two months.”

Shane:- “Planning on having a birthday party?”

‘A bend my head, “I don’t think soI barley know anyone.”

‘I looked up, the tear running down my face must have pissed him off, “Please don’t cry I hate when girls cry.”

Alice:- “I can’t help itI miss my own home, friends, and my dad.” ‘I was always the drama queen, of course I still miss my dad this day, I wonder how he’s doing, haven’t heard form him since, I love him so much.’

Shane:- “Well I don’t know if I can make it feel like home too you, but I’ll try, and I can certainly be your friendandI don’tknow about the dad partI don’t have one.”
