Tylah

"Tylah," my mum waved her hand in front of my face before whispering, "it's rude to stare."

Shaking my head, I smiled at everyone as I looked around the room before my eyes landed on the curly-haired boy again. He smiled warmly and I think I might have blushed.

Lauren looked nervous as she pulled me out of the room apologising for not telling me that her brother was a member of one of the most famous bands in the world. I just laughed while telling her that it was okay and that I wouldn't treat her any different. She hugged me while I gave her a sympathetic look because I can tell she struggles to find real friends that are not people who just use her to meet her 'punk rock' family member. We walk back into the kitchen and we tell her dad what toppings we want on our pizzas and then he orders them.

Half an hour later we are all sitting around their kitchen table eating our pizza. Our parents are talking and the twins are talking to Lauren's younger brother, Harry, who is also ten years old. Me and Lauren were just moaning about how damn good this pizza is while Ashton is giggling at us. While we have been here I have noticed that he is actually always happy. All he does is smile and giggle. He knows exactly how to keep a conversation going and he is just a really great guy. He isn't one of those snobby, famous guys, he is very down-to-earth and charming.

"So, Tylah, tell me about yourself." He asks politely.

"Um... well as you know my name is Tylah. I'm sixteen years old and I moved here from Melbourne yesterday. We moved here because I was offered a scholarship for volleyball. And er, that's all I can think of," I laughed kind of awkwardly.

He begins to ask me questions about volleyball and Lauren just sits there finishing off her pizza slice, occasionally joining in on the conversation. Soon after, he excused himself informing us that Luke was calling him and I made an inhuman noise as Ashton left the room. Lauren started laughing at me because at the mention of Luke's name I almost died. She began to tease me until Ashton waltzed back into the room with a grin on his face.

"Why are you blushing?" Oh god.

"Tylah has a thing for Luke." She told Ashton while smirking.

"I do not." I said bluntly and blinked hard.

Ashton just giggled getting ready to call Luke back again to tell him to come over which resulted in me snatching his phone from him saying that maybe another day is better. I'm still getting over the fact that Ashton bloody Irwin lives next door to me. He agreed and said that they are staying back home in Sydney till February next year because they have a massive rest before another tour starts back up.

It was now 10:30 and my parents decided it would be a good time to go back home. I said my thankyous and goodbyes to all of the Irwin's after I traded numbers with Lauren and Ashton and then pulled them both into separate hugs. We stepped out onto the front porch only to be met by a quite cool October night. Luckily we only live next door because my legs were starting to get goosebumps.

Once we got home I darted up the stairs and into my room. I stripped out of my clothes and put on some pyjamas, doing my nightly routine. Tonight was a good night and I am so happy we moved. I got into bed with one thought on my mind...

I think it was meant to be.
