Mum said that the neighbour's had a kid. I was hoping that their kid was around my age, I could do with a new friend right now. I decided to get dressed into something comfy, so I put on the clothes in the photo 😂. I put my hair into a messy bun and walked downstairs and sat on the couch. I had 25 minutes to spare, so I decided to go outside and spy on the neighbour's backyard and see if I could find their kid. I walked outside and climbed the tree near the fence. It had lots of leaves, so if anybody was outside, they couldn't see me. In the backyard they had:
~ a shed
~a pool
~a skate ramp
~a veranda with hammocks
And plenty of grass space!
I recognised the backyard from a video I'd seen, but don't remember where. I just let it slide. 10 minutes left until they were due to come so I decided to scroll through Instagram. '@chrislanzonmusic has just posted a photo' my notification said. I went to Instagram and it had a photo of his cat, Sammi.
*Skip to 1 minute 'till the neighbour's are due*
I got ready and just paced the living room until my brother grabs me. "Bailee, you're driving me crazy! Stop f-" is all he says until the doorbell rings. "Oh, that must be them!" Mum says and walks to the front door, my dad, brother and I following behind her. My mum opened the door to reveal a woman and a man. I try to move around and see their kid but nothing. Once they stepped inside the house, Chris Lanzon was outside MY house waiting to come inside. I knew had to pretend I had no idea who he was so we could get along without any awkwardness. We sat in the living room and started talking, well our parents did but Hunter, Chris and I didn't. Eventually, Hunter left and went upstairs to his room. "Bailee, why don't you take Chris into the other room?" My mum asks "ok..." I say getting up and Chris following me. I took him into the front room where my dads guitar, organ and keyboard were (my dad actually has all these!). As I suspected, Chris goes straight for the guitar and starts strumming. I decided to make a conversation "Hi, I'm Bailee..." I say shyly "Chris." He says back. He puts down the guitar and sits on the floor next to me "I know you..." He says with a puzzled look on his face "how? I just moved here a few hours ago?!" I say making a joke out of it "hang on!" He says pulling his phone out. "This is you. You're a fan aren't you?!" He says smiling. Great now what "uh, yeah." I say "why didn't you say something?" He asks "Because it would've been awkward!" I reply. "Let's go to the backyard!" I suggest trying to change the conversation. I get up and start walking, Chris catching up with me. I run outside and climb the tree that I had previously been in and hide. "Kids! Pizza's here!" My mum yells from inside.
*skip to end of night*
"Thank you for having us over! It was nice meeting you!" Ingrid says while walking out and down the pavement. I waved at Chris but he comes and hugs me instead. "Seeya around Bailee!" He says walking out of the house.
