Hannah's POV

It was a very hot summer.
Sizzling.
I flipped my long brown hair over my shoulder because I feel a small breeze coming.
My friend, Callie and I are sitting by my private pool in which we just got built in sipping Shirley Temples and tanning.
And honestly.
We are the whitest girls in school. By the time you are 16, you should look like a 16 year old.
But in my opinion, I think that everyone should only worry about their grades and maybe appearance. Not just appearance.
I go to a private school called Lancaster Cathedral School. It's something I don't enjoy and I just moved into my brand new house with 78 acres, a pool, and a beautiful White House trimmed with stone. I don't have to share a room with my 10 year old sister.
Ever since my dad won 859 million dollars and became CEO of Google, everything changed. I'm not a snobby person or mean or anything... I'm actually new to this whole "being rich thing".
My dad insisted to get new "everything".
So im stuck with everything new. Including things I don't really need like a chandelier in my room, an iPhone 6, a freakin' butler, a 30 by 45 room that I can't fill even if I try.
I just met Callie.
She lives next door in a brick house that's a teeny bit smaller than my house. Her parents work at Apple. School starts in a week and a half and I'm really worried that people won't like me.
But that's just normal.... I hope.

Brandon's POV
A new girl just moved in across the street.
I can't believe I'm thinking this but she is actually pretty. I'd don't even know her name and I'm already bringing over some cookies to say "Hi".
I saw Callie heading though and after what happened with her and I, I don't even want to be in the same room with her anymore.
But this girl...
She seems nice...
I just don't want to screw this up and end up scaring her off. I was in the middle of watching "Game of Thrones" when I heard a truck coming up the road and saw it was a moving truck from U-Haul.
I pause the show with the new voice control system that my dad installed earlier today and jog over to the bay window to see who was getting out of the car that was following the truck.
First a woman that seems to be in her late 30's and then a man about in the same age group.
Then.
A girl, about 16 years old, jumps out of the car with anticipation and flips her hair back.
And, my god, she was gorgeous.
And her face wasn't plastered with makeup like the other girls like Ashley, or Madison.
She was something other than those girls.

Callie's POV
I just met Hannah. She seems really cool and fun.
Now, within 30 minutes of just talking, we are already best friends and are sitting by the poolside of Hannah's magnificent pool and fountains. Her butler brings out drinks for us and small snacks.
We haven't jumped in yet because the pool was still heating up for, being dormant and cold while the house was being sold.
You would think that the water was warm if it was about 102 degrees outside and no wind.
Before Hannah moved here, it was a street with only 2 families:
Mine and Brandon's.
Brandon and I don't exactly have good history but I'm not up for that stuff right now. And honestly.
He is a misunderstanding pig that doesn't care about anyone else but him and maybe his dad and 2 brothers.
Anyways...
After 10 more suspending minutes of waiting to jump in, the pool was warm and Hannah just dove right in.
In her clothing.
I guess she didn't care.
"Come on!!! Just jump in!" Hannah yelled from across the pool.
"Okay, okay... Just gimme a mo" I replied. Trying to whip my long, blonde hair into a messy bun so it doesn't get tangled in the water.
I jumped like a cannon ball and I really didn't know how deep it was so I ended up sucking in some chlorinated water....
I arise into fresh air coughing up water.
"Callie! Are you okay? Do you need help?" Hannah asked immediately after I coughed up a mosquito.
"I'm... *cough* fine *cough cough* just need *cough* some water *cough*" I manage to choke out.
"Finley!!! Can you please get me some water? Callie is inhaling Mosquitos!" Hannah yells and then starts laughing hysterically after realizing what she said.
"It's okay... I'm fine now" I say to Finley after he rushed up to me with some water.
"Are you sure?" Finley asks.
"Yeah, just wanted some more protein" I laugh slightly.
"Okay, I'll leave the water on the table" Finley sets the cup on the stained glass table along with some sandwiches the cook made.
After Finley leaves, Hannah and I dive under water and decide to explore the rest of the pool and the large, bubbling hot tub.

Hannah's POV
After some splashing around and jumping into the pool, Callie called her mom to see if she could stay over for the night.
"YES MOM... Okay........ Yes...... Just have Harley bring over my stuff.... Okay mom.... Bye..." Callie ends the call and throws her phone onto my new four poster bed and flings herself onto the yak fur carpet.
"THIS CARPET IS AMAZING" Callie whisper-yells.
"I know right?" I reply while brush out my hair from the shower I took.
The door bell rings and I see Callie's maid standing at the door and I run down the mahogany curving stairs and open the glass doors.
"Oh, Hi! Come in!" I tell Harley.
"Thank you for inviting me in but I have to and finish the pot roast for Callie's parents" she quickly replies before I can even open the doors wide enough for her to enter.
"Okay" I slowly say.
She hurriedly hands me the bag of stuff and runs off to her car she drove here.
"Bye..." My voice drifts off awkwardly as I close the large doors.
"CALLIE COME AND TAKE YOUR DANG BAG. WHY IS IT SO HEAVY?" I scream as Callie slides down the railings.
"Jesus Christ. Calm yo hair frizziez and gimme that" she jokingly says.
I throw her the bag and head to kitchen to make popcorn. When my parents aren't home, I can make any food combination I want.
My mom and dad left 15 minutes ago to fill up our fridge and pantry.
As my dog, Carla, runs up to me (she is a greyhound so she is pretty fast) the doorbell rings and as I walk up, I see a really cute guy holding a box and I scream for Callie and I open the door and say "Hi"

Brandon's POV
Her house is huge.
Like, awesome.
And I can't help but to stare at her when she says Hi.
I hand her the box and introduce myself and after a while of talking, I scurry away because I see a glimpse of Callie.
I want to know Hannah more.
