Chapter 1 {Moving In}

Shakira's POV:

-Put it right there, perfect, thank you very much for helping guys, I really appreciate it. I thanked the movers after putting down the last piece of furniture I purchased

- No problem. They said in unison

And then left

-Okay, so better start unpacking. I sighted

I sat on my knees and started going through my stuff when suddenly, there was a knock on the door

- I'm coming. I yelled

I stood up with heavy steps already tired from travel, approached the door, and grabbed the doorknob slowly opening it

-Hey. Said a familiar voice, it took me seconds to recognize it, my face filled with disgust and surprise at the same time (what the hell is he doing here?)

- what the hell are you doing here? Are you stalking me now! I screamed barely controlling my nerves

-babe calm down, I'm not stalking you, I can't believe you left without telling me. He scolded

- first of all! do never, ever call me that again and second of all! we're over James, I don't feel the need to tell you anything anymore, goodbye, leave now!, you know what this is exactly why I didn't tell you, you have no fucking boundaries!. I responded aggressively

-babe why are you doing this? He begged, I thought we had something special, don't throw all the magic moments we had together out in the wind! And... And he stumbled, I love you and I never stopped loving you.

-James I'm tired, just give me a break for one day for God's sakes, ONE DAY is it that much to ask people?! ONE FREAKING DAY! I scolded angrily

Before he could answer, I heard a familiar voice behind him yelling: - What the hell are you doing here?! You need to leave now, or I'm calling the cops!. She threatened

He turned to see who it was, it was my besty Vanessa, (oh thank god, she'll save me from this madness) although part of me wanted him to stay as crazy as it sounds, she then grabbed my hand pushed me in and closed the door

-Shakira have you lost your mind! you can't let him in here! ". She freaked out

-I wasn't going to, he had me by surprise. I explained looking through the curtain

He was still standing there

- He's still outside, besides how in the world did he get here? I haven't told anyone except for mom and dad and you, that I was flying to LA and I booked the closest flight there was, how is it even possible? I questioned confused

-All that I know, is that he's a psychopath, I never liked that guy and for him to steal money from your parents, that was beyond my expectations. She confessed

-everything is beyond your expectations Nessa. I mocked still starring at him from the front door window

-and now this, I'm telling you that guy is trouble.

-hey he's still outside! I remarked

-What! That's it, I'm calling the cops.

- Why? he didn't do anything. I begged

-Shakira! please tell me you don't still have feelings for him after all he's done to you, besides that scumbag is obviously stalking you, that's a huge red flag and he's standing right there preparing for his next move to murder you! She rambled grabbing her phone dial-in 911 and putting it to her ear

-Oh my god! quit exaggerating Nessa, I'm just tired and not in the mood for more drama for today, I just want to unpack my stuff and go to bed, please! I begged dragging my arms down in despair

-911 what's your emergency? Asked a woman's voice

-No give it to me! I ordered trying to take the phone away from her, but she succeeded in holding it very high that I couldn't reach it, my hight did me no favor at all, then she pushed me away and proceeded with the call

- Hi my name is Vanessa Hudgens and I'm at my friend's house Shakira Mubarak, I'm calling to report a stalker, who is still standing outside her house after she kicked him out and he won't leave her alone.

-yeah his name is James Jones

-uhuh.

(oh my god she's so stubborn) I went to check if he was still creeping outside, surprisingly there was no one there

-Yeah it's...

-Vanessa he's gone. I interrupted her

- What?! Hold on a second madam. She exclaimed approaching the window to see

-Madam are you still there? What's going on?. Screamed the woman on the phone

- Yeah, I'm here, the stalker is gone. She replied surprised

-Alright. She added starring into the distance

-Alright thank you very much, sorry for wasting your time, I'll update you whenever something else happens.

-Alright bye. She hang up

I was still peaking outside the house in case he decides to pop out again

-They said we should contact them in case he comes back or does anything suspicious basically. She said approaching the window to peak as well

-thank God. I sighted

She turned to look at me and gave me a serious look like she was planning to kill me or something

-What?. I asked confused looking at her

-SHAK. She yelled making me jump

-WHAT!. I replied annoyed

-number one rule of you living alone in LA and not getting murdered! is by not letting strangers into your house. She scolded angrily

- I already told you I wasn't going to and He is not a stranger Nessa. I stated standing up and throwing myself into the couch

-Shakira he is your ex whether you like it or not and after what he had done to you and your family, you can not trust him, not in a million years! She scolded looking me dead into the eyes

-I'm tired Nessa, can we please not go through this right now. I begged

- Fine. She finally agreed sitting next to me

-Anyways I have exciting news for you. She announced enthusiastically

I sat up right away and stared at her confused

-We're gonna be roommates!. She yelled all excited

-What! you're not pranking me right?. I screamed surprised

- No! My parents totally agreed about me moving in and start my college life with you-". She didn't even finish her sentence and started screaming, I followed her along and we started screaming and jumping around like lunatics and hugging each other for a solid 15 seconds or more

-Shuuuuu Nessa, neighbors remember? calm down we don't want to get sewed on our first day staying here. I whispered

She looked at me with a grin on her face

I chuckled - What the hell is wrong with you today?

-Speaking of neighbors, Spoiler alert, I stumbled upon your neighbor on my way here and he's so gorgeous. She yelled with a smirk on her face

I started laughing because of how silly she was acting

-Shut up and help me unpack would ya. I ordered

-Tomorrow is the first day of college and I, want, to get over with this and go to bed, how does that sound? We can deal with whatever hottie neighbor tomorrow. I added hoping she would give up and finally decide to let it go

- Fine! Party pooper, can you loosen up for once in your life and actually have a little fun. She complained

-No, unpacking, Nessa, now! I ordered giving her a serious look

She took some steps back, knowing her I should have expected that coming

-What are you doing? I asked Already knowing the answer

-Or... we can go say hi to him, you know for the sake of being polite or something. she rushed out making her path to his house

- right polite, Lust you mean, Vanessa no! Get back here, yeah why even bother it's not like that's gonna change anything. I sighted

I adjusted myself then followed her

she was already on his doorstep

-Come on. She whispered waving for me to join her

She rang his doorbell

-But shouldn't we have at least brought something with us, I don't know Champagne, food or something. I whispered

She Shushed me followed by him opening the door

And damn she was right he was so hot...
