only guess would be, mom stuff. I tried to slip away, but Dad wasn't done with me yet. I figured this is kinda what show dogs feels like. Shake Hannah, speak Hannah, stay Hannah.
"And these are their sons David," the younger boy smiled, blushed and made his getaway toward his mom, "and Daniel."
Daniel, it fits him, all six feet of his hotness. Dad finally let go of my back and started toward the office doors with Charlie. While I'm still standing here staring at this perfectly flawless guy. "Hey." The tanned Adonis spoke. Ohmygosh, his voice is hot too!
Ok Hannah, get a freakin grip! Say something smart. No, say something funny. Oh for goodness sake say something you idiot, anything is better than just staring at him. "So you're moving into my room." Ok I was wrong, that was nowhere near better. Fix it. "I mean into my house. My old house. Well it's not an old house but it's old to me since we are getting a new house." Somebody shoot me. "And I just figured you would pick my old bedroom because it's the biggest." Shoot me now. "It's purple but you can paint it if you want." Shut up shut up shut up! Even though the purple room would so match his aura right now.
He was just standing there just looking at me. Why you ask? Cause he thinks you're a mental case and doesn't want to make any sudden moves, dummy.
"Hannah let's go." My mother's voice has never sounded so sweet.
Ok, end on a high note. "Well I guess I'll see ya." That was better than talking about paint colors.
"Good to know it's not just me." He's first sentence to me, and it made no sense. And he's just walking away. No wait. He stopped and held the door open for me. Well of course he did. He thinks the act of opening a door is too complicated for me after that worst first impression of all time.
Ok just walk through the door with a shred of dignity, without tripping. Good you made it, now be nice. "Thank you." Now, walk away as fast as you can Hannah.
After two hours of hearing ‘and sign here and initial here’ we were finally back in the car. I didn't get to see Daniel while my parents were signing contracts in the first conference room, and the Carvers must have finished before us because when we left the second conference room was empty. That was probably for the best. I didn’t think my ego could go round two with him today. I'm totally gonna ignore the disappointment I felt of not seeing him again. I didn't ask his age but he looks to be 18 or 19 and will more than likely start college this fall. So I'm sure he will find a college girl who DOESN'T talk like her parents are also first cousins. So just let it go Hannah. After spazzing out in front of him, the good news is you're never gonna see him again and the bad news is you so want to.
"I'm taking my two girls out to eat to celebrate. Then to the new house to start unpacking." Dad announced, while turning right at the stop light.
Good to know it's not just me. What did that mean? Ohmygosh! I didn't even notice it. I didn't pick up anything from him. Well, I did see his purple aura but nothing else. Not what he was feeling or what mood he was in, nothing. I have to ask about him, but then they will think I'm interested. I'll ask about the family instead.
"Hey Dad where did the Carver's move here from?"
"Dr. Carver was the chief of staff at a hospital in Tulsa, Oklahoma. When he received the offer to take over a former colleague's practice, he discussed it with Sara, and they decided to take it. They wanted a simpler, slower pace of life."
Dang is it in the water or something? "There's a lot of that going on around here." I couldn't help but get a jab in.
"Well I think it's nice." Of course you would Mom. I was gonna say it out loud but then she added, "Hannah, honey, you're going to love the new house. How about you invite some friends over to swim sometime soon?"
Yes! Sometimes complaining and whining pays off. "Ok, I will get together with the girls to plan it."
