11. Our next door neighbours

Ava's pov
"Well...what did you say?" Isla ask siting down next to me on my bed. "I just told them that we are their kids. They're fine with it" I tell her. "Okay" she lays down on my bed. "Get out" I say walking to my closet to fix my outfit for tomorrow. First day of school. Well at a new school. "Fine" I can hear her walk out and she decides to slam my door. Bitch. I turn my speaker on and play some music. Some throwbacks to be exact. I made sure I checked the weather for tomorrow. It's suppose to rain so I chose some grey sweat pants with a white crop top and a black zip up hoodie just in case. After I finished, I laid on my bed just scrolling through Instagram because I'm bored. I then smelt something burning. I get up and walk downstairs to see what's being roasted.

After Ava rudely made me leave her room, I went downstairs to see what Scarlett and Chris were doing. This house is too big so I tried a room and somehow I ended up in the garage. "What are you doing in here?" I turn around to see Chris leaning on the door. "Um well I was looking for the kitchen...well mostly you guys but I ended up here" he laughs and walks in the garage to some baseball things. "Those yours?" I ask pointing to all of the balls that are signed by famous players. "Yup. Took me a long time to get all these" I nod looking at them closely. "Would you like one?" I raise an eyebrow not believing him.

"Are you serious?" He nods his head. "Pick one" I chose wisely. I picked the José Bautista one because I would feel extra bad if it's one of the older people. "Thank you" he smiles. I then remembered that I wasn't on my softball team anymore due to us moving. I wanted to ask him if I could join a club but I feel like he would say no. "What's on your mind?" He ask putting his thousands of baseball bats away. "Um well...is it okay if I join a baseball or softball club?" He smiles at me. "Of course you can!" He gives me a side hug. "We should see what your mother is doing. We have our new neighbours coming over for supper" I nod walking back inside the house. "Ah there you guys are" Scarlett comes up to us.

I sniffed the air smelling something burning. "Somethings burning" Chris and I both said making her run to the kitchen. We laugh and follow her.  She pulls out a tray of something. I don't even know what it is. "Great" she huffs. I sit down on the counter just laughing my ass off. "It's not funny young lady" she pokes my side making me laugh even more. "Who's being roasted alive?" I turn around to see Ava raising an eyebrow. "Whatever that was in there" I point to the tray. "She can't cook" Ava says sitting down next to me. "Yeah I know. That's why I cook" Chris tells us making Scarlett slap him on his arm making us laugh. "Now what?" She ask looking at the clock. "We have an hour" Chris looks a little stress.

"We can cook" Ava and I say at the same time. "Can you even cook?" They both ask us. "Um well we had to cook for ourselves back home so yeah" I tell them. They just nod. We jump off the counter and push them out the kitchen. "Go look like a normal human being and we will call you down when it's ready" I push Scarlett out even more. She seems hesitant. "Are you sure?" She asked one more time. "Yes now leave" we said closing the sliding doors. I think Ava and I already know what we're doing so we get started.

We finished our Pasta and we set them on some nice plates that we found. Isla pours water in some glasses and I take out some wine. I don't know what they like so I literally got everyone single one they had. I then hear a knock at the door so rush to open it. I freeze when I see who is standing in front of me. "Kayla?" She smirks and brings me into a hug. "Hello neighbour" she says as I open the door for her and her family. "This is my mom and dad and this is my sister" she tells me. I shake theirs hands. "Isla come!" I shout making Kayla's family laugh. "What!?" She shouts back from the kitchen. "The guests are here" she then rushes at the door. "Oh hello Kayla" she smiles. "Ava move. Let the guest come inside" Isla pushes my to the side.

"I'll get my parents" I tell them and run upstairs to their room. "They're here" I tell him. Scarlett is just finishing up her makeup. "You don't need makeup you know" I walk over to her and help her put on a necklace.Chris went downstairs to greet them. "Hurry" I pull Scarlett up and run downstairs. I can hear her laugh behind me. "Can we eat now?" Isla ask making it sound rude. "Don't be rude Island" she rolls her eyes to that nickname. I call her that sometimes. Her name is Isla and it's kinda like Island sooo. "Sure let's go eat" Chris leads us to the dining room and we sit down. I'm sitting down next to Island and Kayla.

We start eating the food we made and let me tell you. It was a hit. Everyone loved it. "This was amazing" Kayla placed her hand on my knee making me freeze and blush. I look up at her with red cheek. She smirks and goes back to eating. "What's going on over there?" Isla had to ask making everyone look our way. Kayla's hand did not leave my knee. "What's going on with that?" I point to her face making everyone laugh. She literally has sauce on her face. She's literally a child. She wipes it off and we finished eating. Everyone helps put the stuff away then we go to the living room to chill. The kids got bored so we went for a walk around the neighbourhood to show them around.

We arrived at a park and we sat down and talked. "So? Are you dating anyone?" Isla asked Kayla as she stared at me. "No" I smile looking at the tree so it doesn't look obvious. "Interesting. So Aves, when are you going to date someone?" She then asked making me want to punch her. "When are you?" I snap back. She just laughs. I swear this bitch. "Do you guys play any sports?" Kayla's sister, Carly, ask us. "I do. I play softball and my sister can run around looking for a specific item and find it in a second when she goes shopping so I guess that's her sport" I roll my eyes making them laugh. We hang out and chill until they had to go home. "Hang tomorrow?" Kayla ask us. "Sure" Isla and I say together. We shut the door and walk upstairs. I'm so tired I pass out as soon as hit the pillow.
