    So this new move is sorta going good and bad at the same time. The girl across the street is really pretty and she seems nice. But there is a problem, she has a boyfriend. He looked really mad when we were talking earlier today.
    I hear Allie yelling in the background, "GIVE IT BACK!" Her small high pitch voice hurts my ears. "C'MON YOU MEANIE!" I peak in her play room to see the dog with her doll's head in its mouth. "Drop it!" I say firmly. When he does drop it, the only thing that hit the floor was the doll's body. Allie didn't just scream, she screetched. I swear I heard a window break in another room.
    My mom comes running in, "DYLAN LUKE! What did you do to poor little Allie?!" She gives me the death stare. "Mom I didn't do anything!" I point at the dog, " See! He's the one that has the doll head in his mouth, not me!" She starts laughing. Meanwhile my little sister is sitting in the corner having a mental break down. I crouch down next to her, "Allie, its ok." I rub her arm, "I will buy you a new one ok?" I smile and her tears are immediately gone.
    My house is always like a circus, even though its just me, my mom, Allie, and our dog. Trust me, there is never a dull moment.
    I was about to get in the shower when there is a knock on the door. I look out of my window from the top floor and look down. All I see is the long wavy hair. It's Nic.
    In just my jeans, I run downstairs and answer the door before my mom can see who it is. I fix my hair in the mirror across from the door, making sure I look presentable. What does she want at 9:30 at night anyways?
    I swing the door open and her eyes widen and under her breath I hear "Oh my God abs". I giggle, "Hey what's up?" She smiles, "Hey um, do you have a minute? I wanna clear things up." "Yea, I got time." I invite her inside, my mom must've heard her voice because she comes running in the living room, "Oh hi Nicole! Nice to see you." Nic smiles, "Hi Ms. Dauzat! Nice to see you too!" I glare at my mom, giving her the signal to leave. She looks at me sadly, then leaves the room.
    "What's going on?" I ask very confused. "I wanted to apologize..." She started but I interrupted, "For what?" "Let me finish..." She snapped at me. "I'm sorry about Taylor. He's not my boyfriend or anything. Its just that, he's been my best friend for 10 years and he said he had feelings for me. Then he kissed me. I had nothing to do with it, that's why I pulled away." She looked guilty, but I forgave her anyways. "Nic, its fine. I understand. My best friend tried to kiss me in front of my girlfriend before." She suddenly tensed up, "Wait, you have a girlfriend?" She looked sad now. "No no no, I don't, I am single like a pringle and I am ready to mingle." I wink at her. Wow, I feel like an idiot. She giggles, "Hey I would like to stay but its late and I have to get up early tomorrow. Here's my number though." She hands me a piece of paper, as if this was all planned. I take the folded piece of paper from her. She hugs me before leaving, "Talk to you later!" "Ok bye Nic!" We yell back and forth as she walks back home.
    Oh my God! That just happened. Mama I made it. I GOT THE CUTE GIRL'S NUMBER! I feel accomplished for once. I can't wait to talk to her tomorrow. Maybe she likes me too.
    I feel weird for doing this, but I go on YouTube and search "How to tell if a girl likes you". I watched like all of the videos, and they all said the same thing. "If she laughs at EVERYTHING you say, even if it's not funny." Oh my God... Nic likes me!!
    I couldn't sleep that night because I kept thinking of her. Finally, after about an hour of staring at the wall, I fall asleep. That night a had a dream about her...

*Dream*

I hold her close. My arms wrapped around her as we dance under the moon. "You don't understand how beautiful you look in that dress." I smile to my cheeks. All she could do was chuckle. "And another thing," I spin her around so that we are face to face, inches apart. "I love you, more then you will ever know." I pulls me in and kiss her gently. We both smile. "This night couldn't get any better." She says. I look into her grey and blue eyes as I lean in again and this time kissing her nose. My hands were now around her waist. "I'm so glad you're home. I missed you. Can you do me a favor and stop going on family vacations?!" She says in a joking manner. "Trust me, I would take you with me if I could." I give an evil smirk; I then push her into the pool, "I'm not going down alone!" She yells as she grabs my arm and pulls me down with her. We were suddenly somehow in our bathing suits (its a dream... Anything can happen lol). I race her to the other side of the pool. "Loser has to kiss the winner!" She says with a smile. "Well that sounds like a win win situation to me." I made that half smirk that drives girls crazy. She counted down, "3.... 2.... 1.... GO!!" As we go underwater I hear the splashing of us both trying to get across. Once I get to the other side, I realize she's still swimming. Seconds later, she arrives at the other side. I chuckle, "You lost you own bet!" "Yea..." She looks sad, "But now that means you have to kiss me." Then she smiles. "I guess so." There goes that half smirk again. I pull her underwater, embrasing her in my arms. We kiss, then come back above the water.
