Lauren woke to the sound of a truck pulling up next door; she pulled herself out of bed and walked to the large window the overlooked the lush front yard of the neighboring house. “Well finally” She said to herself aloud. The house next door had been vacant for almost three months; Rumors were that someone had died so obviously it stayed on the market. A boy came out of the front door and took a table from the mover man, as he turned around Lauren studied his rugged features. He wore long slightly baggy pants, but not that kind that fall down under the ass and a red flannelette shirt cut off at the shoulders over a white long sleeve shirt and his brown hair fell in front of his face making it difficult for her to see. He walked towards the door of the house but paused for a moment, his head turned and he looked up at her. To her he was quite rugged and handsome but anyone else would say to her “He looks dangerous Lauren, stay away from him”

He did look dangerous and he wasn’t the kind of guy she would usually go for but there was just something about him. He stared at her and she stared back, she tried to smile but his face just stayed plain, if anything he was laughing at her. She was a stuck up rich snob to him and why should he waste his time to smile back at her. She turned up her nose and gave him the finger, he put down the table he was holding and pretended to grab the gesture and put it his pocket for safe keeping. She watched as his father walked up behind him and slapped his head, even from her room she could hear what was being said…or yelled actually.
”What the hell are you doing, move your ass you idiot” The boy picked up the table and took one last look at her before he went inside.

“What a jerk” She scoughed. Lauren jumped when the phone beside her rung she walked over and picked it up, smiling because she knew exactly who it was “Hello” she chorused into the receiver.

“Morning babe, hope I didn’t wake you”

“Morning Jake, no you didn’t wake me, I was up watching our new neighbors move in…finally”

“Wow they actually sold that house after all that was said about it”

“Yeah, but the people who are moving in there look like don’t really give a shit. They look really…well I can’t describe them. They kind of look like criminals if you ask me” Jake laughed on the other end “Well you just keep an eye out baby, don’t get to close to them…they might bite” Lauren laughed and said her goodbyes. God Jake was so sweet, he was everything that she looked for in a guy, but this boy next door was something different.

Lauren walked to the small cupboard containing all the clothes she own, yes her parents were rich but her view was if she needed money she had to work for it herself. She had a job at a clothes shop in the mall up town, she didn’t get paid much but it was the thought that counted. Most of her friends thought she was an idiot for doing it, but she liked that fact that she had to work for her own money rather than have it handed to her on a silver platter. She pulled on a pleated black skirt and the white shirt with Shirley’s Boutique stitched onto it, she pulled back her short black hair into a bun and put on the required black shoes she had to wear. She pulled the front door closed behind and started to walk up the path beside the road. The man from the mover van pulled closed the doors and jumped in the driver seat, obviously he didn’t see her because he was so close to running her over as he pulled out. Lauren faced the truck “ASSHOLE!!!” The drivers hand came out the window and gave her the same finger gesture she had given the boy this morning, so she did the same, throwing her hand high in the air and sent it back to him.

“You know if your always a bitch like that to everyone, your never going to have any true friends” Lauren jumped, startled at the sudden break of silence. She turned to find the boy next door standing on the foot path.

“Well if he hadn’t tried to run me over I wouldn’t have been as nasty. And who are you to judge” she spat back at him, a small evil grin spreading across her face.

“Let me guess, you think because I don’t know you I don’t have the right to judge you? Well little miss I can tell you right now…just taking a guess. Your on your way to the mall right now, and I don’t understand why you don’t just jump in your daddy’s car and drive but your going to spend as much money as possible to get back at him for making your life a living hell…I’m I getting this right?”

“You’re not even close”

“Oh I’m not”

“No…In fact I’m walking to the mall…” She was cut of by him laughing

“Well at least I had that part right”

“Will you shut up and let me finish so I can get this out because I don’t want to be late for work” The evil grin filled her face again

“Work…?”

“Yes, work. I’m WALKING to the mall where I will WORK for five hours and get pain about $7.50 an hour. The reason I am walking is because I’m about $7000 short of buying my OWN car. Now can you see how far off you were?” Lauren smiled and turned her back on him.
