Cara's POV

It's the last day of summer, also known as the worst day of my life. I have to go back to school with the annoying people, the rude teachers, and the popular kids. Maybe it's a good thing that I am going back to school, let's face it all I have been doing is laying around doing nothing.

I peek out my window to my neighbors house. Through the window I saw their teenage son. He looked about my age, but I've never actually talked to him before. They moved here in late July when I was too consumed with binge watching netflix to think about them moving right next to me. The boy was playing his guitar, as always. His fingers moved across the strings as he played beautifully. Every night he sings this song, it was nothing I've heard before, but it was great. Every time he plays it gets better, the lyrics go farther and the words have more meaning.

That night I climbed in my bed just in time for my own personal concert from the boy next door. He started playing and I started listening.

i love it when you just don't care

i love it when you dance like there's nobody there

so when it gets hard, don't be afraid

we don't care what them people say

i love it when you don't take no

i love it when you do what you want cause you just said so

let them all go home, we out late

we don't care what them people say

we don't have to be ordinary

make your best mistakes

'cause we don't have the time to be sorry

so baby be the life of the party

i'm telling you to take your shot it might be scary

hearts a gonna break

'cause we don't have the time to be sorry

so baby be the life of the party

together we can just let go

pretending like there's no one else here that we know

slow dance fall in love as the club track plays

we don't care what them people say

we don't have to be ordinary

make your best mistakes

'cause we don't have the time to be sorry

so baby be the life of the party

i'm telling you to take your shot it might be scary

hearts are gonna break

'cause we don't have the time to be sorry

so baby be the life of the party

His song was amazing. It was so amazing I wanted to get to know him and ask him what it was about. I wanted to ask if there was a story behind it. I got out of bed and crept to my window to see if he was still there. I pulled back my curtains and saw him writing something, that something probably being his song. I waited, staring at him through my window. Before I was about to close my curtains and leave to go to bed, he smiled at me. It wasn't that kind of smile that was just because you saw someone creepily staring at you, it was one that made my heart melt.

I smiled back and quickly hid my face before he could look at me anymore. Embarrassed that he caught me I climbed back into bed and checked my phone. I clicked on the message icon and decided to text my friend.
