~~~~~Tays pov~~~~~ I watched my pretty new next door neighbor through my window. I t was so convenient how out windows were right across from one another. Suddenly, she looked up from the computer she had been so absorbed in. Oh gosh, what do I do? Ok, maybe we can do some window flirting. She blushed. Is that a good sign?? OH, oh no.. shes getting up! She left the room and shut the door behind her...God Tay! What were you thinking? Now how could you expect her to fall head over heals for me? She probable hates me.... ~~~~~Adrians pov~~~~~~ Oh...........my..........gosh....Taylor Hanson! That was Taylor Hanson! I am SO embarassed! he was watching me.....why was he watching me?Oh god, why did i leave the room? Maybe he'd just wanted to say hello!
I didn't know what to do about this whole thing..it was weird! Mostly because my next door neighbors were my favorite band; quite an improvement, might I add, from the criminal neighbors I'd had back home.
I decided I needed to sit outside and think. So I took this oportunity to explore our new backyard. When I got out there, I realized how huge it was! We had an in ground pool, and a really big pretty tree with a swing hanging from it. The moon reflected off the pool, making the water sparle in the night. I sat on the swing and took in my beautiful surroundings. Then I heard a small crash from the backyard next door. Curiousity came oer me, and I tiptoed over to the big wooden fence that seperated the two yards. I heard footsteps when I came closer. I tried to see through one of the many little holes that were in the fence. I couldn't see a thing and so I moved to another hole and jumped back about a foot when I saw an eye staring back at me.
I heard a mumbled cuss word; the eye disaapeared and I heard more footsteps...Then nothing..."Um...h-hello?" I called quietly and uneasily. More footsteps...and then.."hello!" I looked up and jumped; peering ouver the fence at me was Taylor Hanson.
"Hello" I said pleasantly. He smiled "Sorry about staring". I just smiled, not knowing what to say. There was a short pause "So you just moved here, huh?" Taylor asked. "Yes, unfortunately".."Oh, I sense bitterness..."
"Yea, well, my whole life is there.....I'm here.." I said unhappily. "Oh, but you can start a new one here! You'll love Tulsa, I swear!" He was about to add something else when a womans voice acme from the other side of the fence. "Taylor, what are you doing out there?"
"Nothing, mom". Taylor said, directing his attention to the house. "Well come in! Its late" came the voice "I gotta go" Taylor quietly said to me. " Bye-bye" I said, smiling. He smiled back at me and I gave him a little wave. He climbed down from the fence, and apparently walked to the house, leaving me alone to think about what had just happened. There was only one word taht would really describe it: weird!
I decided to go inside and go to sleep. So I did.... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The next morning, I woke up feeling horrible. I just wanted to go home, and just thinking about what I was missing and the fact that I wouldn't see my friends for a very long time made the tears flow. I got dressed and put my hair into a sloppy ponytail, and then went downstairs.
Well, my family didn't help my mood. After them pouncing on me about what must be wrong, I decided I need to get away.
"I'm going for a walk." I announced, grabbing my jacket and leaving the house. I walked to a little park, and just wandered around awhile, not wanting to get myself lost, I turned around and headed home. Once I had returned I decided I didn't feel like talking to my parents still, so I took a seat on the porch and tried to hold back the tears that were desperately wanting to flow. I just couldn't do it, and all of a sudden the tears just started to flow. I stopped trying to hold them back and just sat on the top step sobbing silently to myself.
"Are you alright?" A voice came from just in froung of me. Startled, I looked up, frantically wiping the tears from my eyes. Standing right in front of me was Zac Hanson. "Yea, I'm fine" I said quickly, and very unconvincingly, may I add. "Now...I know thats not true...My name is Zac, whats yours?" he inquired. I instantly decided I liked this guy. He had such a sweer and caring tone in his voice, it showed in his eyes too.
"I'm Adrian" I said, smiling slightly.
"You read me like a book!" I said, my voice shaky from crying. "Well, I know what its like. I have to travel alot with my family, I don't get to see much of my friends sometimes."
"Yea, well atleast you know when and if you'll see them again!" I said.
"You got me there..." He said, sounding defeated.
"Sorry" I said, and paused a second. "I'm just scared about this. I haven't had to make new friends since the second grade. I don't remember how!" I said, exasperated.
"I'll be your friend." Zac stated. I found this cute.
"You will?" I asked in a flirty voice, smiling slightly.
"Sure! Wanna come to my place?"
"ok!"....
