The Guy Next Door

I lived in a neighborhood filled with retired people. There are no kids the live close to me. When we first moved I got excited because I thought I'd get a neighborhood friend until I found this out. Since everyone was retired, they had grandchildren. My next door neighbor had a grandson that would visit him after school every other day. I never knew this though because he never came outside. My dad somehow figured this out and wanted me to meet him. Ever since 2nd grade my parents have been trying to set me up with guys. Most parents don't want their daughters to date so young, but mine did. My dad said Sam was a good guy with good grades and he thought we'd make great "friends". So I met him and realized I have never seen him before in the school even though we are in the same grade. We have no classes together and none of my friends have ever talked about him. I found out when I met him that he was very shy and dorky. Other than that he was very sweet. Anyway I'm not good with meeting new people even though I love to talk I'm very shy and always act nervous when talking to new people. I messed up my words when talking to Sam, but I didn't even realize because I was so nervous. I don't remember our conversation very well, but I remember me saying we could hangout sometime if he wanted.
