Someone New

Chapter two, ENJOY.

After her cup of tea, Amelie went back to bed for a while. That's one thing that she had been doing a lot latley since the abusive relationship had come to an end, sleeping. She tried not to do so often but it was very hard for her. She believes it's the depression and emotional down pour she had been feeling for the past year. It just made her tired all the time.

Ding dong, Amelie opened her eyes to the sound of the door bell ringing threw the house. She threw off her covers and walked into the living room to answer the front door. To her surprise there was a young man, probably in his early twenty's, standing at the door.

"Hello, I'm sorry to bother you but I'm new to this neighbor and was wondering if you knew where the closet gas station is?" said the young man with medium length, aburn hair. "I need to fill up the tank later on today and I didn't see any gas stations when I was out earlier."

"Oh, hi you must be my new neighbor then?" Amelie said getting rather nervous. She's always been nervous around men ever since Charlie.

"Well yes, I must be. I'm Drake, by the way," he said holding out his hand. Amelie took his hand and shaked it.

"Nice to meet you, Drake. I'm Amelie," she said blushing a little. She had to admit, Drake was very dashing. "To get to the nearest gas station you go up this road and take a left then go up Idela street and make another left turn. That will lead you right to the gas station."

"Thank you very much, Amelie. I hope to talk with you again soon," Drake said, he walked back up to his house. After shuting the door Amelie ran to look out her window to catch one last glimsp of him.

Very good, but the dialogue is just a little repetitive.
If you try reading something out loud to yourself after writing it, you can usually catch that kind of thing.

"To get to the nearest gas station you go up this road and take a left then go up Idela street and make another left turn. That will lead you right to the gas station."

There's an example.
But it's really good, I enjoyed reading both chapters.
