"Whatever, can my new friends Drew, Thalia and Matthias get a ride home? They missed their bus and have no phone to call their parents", she explains.

"How far do they live?" I sigh.

"We actually live in the same road just different streets", Thalia replies, she got blonde brown hair and sky blue eyes.

"Alright get in, Ally take front seat", I gesture to the front. They all thank me and get in.

"How did you all meet?" I ask.

"Reach to class the same time and the only seats that were available was to the back, lunchtime I invited them over to my table once I spot them", Ally answers.

"Some of my classmates from elementary school attends our new middle school and they start picking on me when school was over, that's when Ally comes to rescue me", Drew explains.

"I told you they are jealous because the two prettiest girl in our grade are talking to you and not them", Matthias states and blushes when he realize what he said.

"You think I'm pretty?" Thalia asks shyly.

"Well yeah, that's what everyone were saying even the girls who had the pretty bags and chain."

"Oh those jealous wannabes tried to get me to hangout with them before lunch, they were seventh graders and like my style. I turned them down once they start badmouthing my new friends", Ally confesses.

"Plus you're popular, your face was seen in those pretty magazines mom always have around the house", Drew adds.

"At least no one recognize me at school", I state.

"Give it till next week, the paparazzi will find us they always do", Ally sighs.

"Paparazzi?" Drew gasps.

"Yes if you want to get paid for minding someone's business then that's the perfect job for you", she laughs.

After I drop off Ally's friends home, I drive to Roosevelt.

We reach at the house 4:30 pm.

"So what you wanna do?" I ask Ally.

"Watch a movie and eat pizza", she grins.

"But I can make spaghetti and meatballs for you", I suggest.

"Later, just order pizza please", she pleads.

"Fine, go look for a movie", I wave her off as I get my phone and research the closest pizza place. I place my order online and the address for the house.

"Hey, mom is calling", Ally runs down the stairs with her laptop in her hands, she answers the call and place the laptop on the counter.

"Hey darling", mom smiles.

"Mom, I miss you", Ally says.

"Yeah me too", I add.

"We miss you guys too, your father is working on a case so I am alone here at the apartment", mom explains.

"You got off early?" I ask.

"No, working from home today. How was your first day of school?"

"It was great, I made three friends", Ally cheers.

"I made two I guess", I say.

"That's good to hear, where is Vanessa? I know Jake is on a business trip."

"At work until 7 pm, we just ordered pizza", I reply.

"Don't have too much of those, eat healthy. You know your father already", she warns.

"We know mom, when will we be seeing you?" Ally asks.

"Hopefully for Thanksgiving", she smiles.

"But that's next two months", I sigh.

"I'll let you know if its changes", mom says,"how's Seattle treating you guys?"

"Good, although we are expecting rain later", Ally reads the weather update on her phone.

"That's why I don't visit Jake a lot, too much rain", mom chuckles.

"Yeah."

"Well I got to go guys, going out with a few colleagues for a drink. Love you guys", mom says.

"Love you too mom", we say in unison and hang up.

"Pizza will be here soon", I say to Ally.

"Good, we will be watching Abominable", she states.

"Sounds cool, I nod as she turns on the TV and goes on Netflix.

15 mins later

I answer the door as I hear the doorbell,"that'll be $15", the pizza guys says,"Sebastian?"

"Oh hey Nick, didn't know you were a pizza delivery guy", I take the box.

"Well it was half of my summer job so I decided to stay since I like it and get great tips", he explains.

"Cool, so when you have games how you managing?"

"Work extra hours during the weekends, are you attending that party on Saturday?"

"What party?" Ally asks behind me.

"Um.. this is my sister Ally, Ally this is a guy I met at school today", I introduce them.

"Will you be delivering pizza for us from now on?" She looks up at him.

"Once you keep ordering, I sure will", he grins.

"Will we get a discount as well?" I frown at her.

He laughs,"if you become a regular customer."

"Okay crab, we are ordering pizza everyday for the rest of the month", Ally demands.

Nick and I laugh.

"Too much pizza isn't good knucklehead", I hand her the box.

"Whatever", she shows me her tongue and goes back to the living room.

"She looks like something else", Nick comments.

"You have no idea."

"See you at school tomorrow?"

"Sure will, here's an extra ten bucks", I hand him the money.

"Thanks man."

"Hey guys, I see you made dinner", aunty Vanessa smiles as she walks into the dining room where Ally and I just finish ate dinner and playing monopoly.

"He almost burnt the meatballs", Ally points at me.

"But I didn't", I point out.

"If I didn't warn you about it", she sticks her tongue out at me.

"Real mature", I laugh.

"How was your first day at school?" Aunty Vanessa asks.

"It was great, I made three friends and mom called us", Ally replies.

"And I made two friends, both girls", I smile.

"Why I am not surprise", aunty laughs,"you definitely got James blood flowing through you."

"Aunty, who was your best friend?" Ally questions.

"I had a group of friends, but the closest person I was to was my guy best friend Archer. You guys met him last year."

"Oh yeah, he was the model right?"I ask.

"Yes, he finally got married when I was pregnant with Jenessa, it took him long enough though", we laugh.

"Mom told me she thought he was gay", I add.

"Trust me, he is far from it", she assures me.

I return to my room after placing the dishes in the dishwasher.

My phone rings,"hey man, how is Seattle treating you? Any pretty girls?" Keith, my friend and partner in crime asks when I answer.

"Its pretty chill, I saw a handle of girls but none compare to this girl at my school, Amanda", I answer.

"Oh, you met a girl already? Not surprise, is she clingy? Bitchy? Obsess with makeup?"

"Quite the opposite actually, she has a clean record and great GPA."

"So the female version of you then?" He chuckles.

"She doesn't party though, her brothers are protective of her", I explain.

"Obviously you will be the one to be interested in girls with protective families."

"I am not interested in her like that, I am just saying we can be friends if we aren't already are."

"Whatever man, anyway over here school was good and lots of people asked for you. Your 'ex girlfriend' is back and is dating the new captain of the football team", Keith informs me.

"Ryder?"

"Yes, well apparently they started dating during the summer and coach appointed him as the new captain today since he was the second best after you."

"I'll give it till Halloween."

"You're on, till winter break", he bets.

"What about you? Any few flavor of the week?" I smirk.

"Not yet, give me till Wednesday."

"Okay player of the school", I tease.

"Come on, no one is the biggest player except Ryder and Chase, you know that."

"Yeah, but Chase is the biggest player of all. He dated four girls in one week", I remind him.

"I know right and those four girls were fighting over him after, that was really stupid because he was dating the head captain after that for a while and didn't want any of them back."

"So basically hump and dump?"

"Yeah basically. Going any party soon?"

"There's one on Saturday, not sure if I am going yet", I reply.

"Dude you have to, show Seattle what a true party king looks like", Keith encourages.

"Fine, I'll go and tell you all about once I get over my hangover on Sunday."

"Great, I am hitting Chase's party on Friday, heard it is going to be epic. You should of totally be here man."

"Yeah I know."
