"Heather, it's time to get up" mom shouted. I rolled over in bed and opened one eye at the clock. 8:00am. "Mom! 1 more hour please!" I yelled back. " No, now get up and get changed, you have to visit the new neighbours" she replied. " what?" I whispered to myself. I sat up and peeped out my window facing the house next door. My room of course didn't have the best of views, it just faced next doors side of the house, so I could all I could see was a room painted blue filled with boxes. I grabbed my phone. NO NEW MESSAGES. "great" I threw my phone onto the bed and stumbled to the bathroom and got washed, then walked back to my room and opened my closet. . . new neighbours I thought. I grabbed a pair of my favourite light blue skinny jeans, a purple tanktop to match my purple and White high-tops and a denim jacket to match my skinnies. Grabbed my phone and put it in my pocket. I strolled down the stairs while rolling the jacket sleeves up just before my elbows. I ran my fingers through my dark brown straight hair. " aw dahmmit" I said I turned around and back up stairs into the bathroom, grabbed a brush and brushed for a minute or two then into my room. I stared at myself in the mirror then applied some light make-up with mascara. I fixed my swept bang into place and started heading down stairs again.
"About time, I was about to send out a search party" Mum moned. " good morning to you to" I said happily. "Breakfast?" she asked. " nah am not hungry ". "Ok well I have to go visit Mrs Kerr, you know the social worker." she said sympathetically. " yeah sure got it" I flatly replied. Mum and Dad got devorced and Dad wants custody of me, but Mum won't have it. I'd rather be with my Mum though we get on well and she's more like a friend than a Mum. "oh where are the keys?" " in your hand Mum". she smirked and started to walk to the door. " oh Heather, go visit the new neighbours, there's a welcome basket in the lounge, love you bye," she walked out the door. I took my phone out my pocket. 1 new message from Sophie my best friend, I tell her everything.

I walked into the lounge and grabbed the basket that had muffins and cookies in it. I walked across the loan and stared at the moving vans bringing furniture into the house. I walked upto the door and knocked it a few times. I turned around and watched the men putting the sofa in through the window. I heard the door open from behind me and turned round to see a boy with dirty blonde hair , tall, around my age probably 14. I stared deeply into his sky blue eyes as he smiled at me.
....- hello there ( he said in an austailian accent, he looked at me and smiled )
Me- hi...( I gazed at him for what seemed like hours) ... oh yeah( I shook my head and looked Away). ... I'm Heather I live next door ( I pointed at the house and he turned and looked) ... I'd just like to say welcome to the neighbour hood.
I handed him the basket and he smiled sweetly.
....- I'm Cody, it's nice to meet you Heather. ( he was gazing at me for a while, he flustered away embarrassed) ... would you like to come in?
Me- eh.. sure .
I walked into the house, it had the exact same lay out as mine.
Cody-" Mum , Dad , Alli we've got a visiter" he yelled up the stairs still smiling at me.
I gazed back taken in by his smile... I looked up the stairs to see people rushing down. A woman and man and a girl a little younger than I was.
....-" hi there" she smiled.
Cody- " guys this is Heather" ....
