Carter's P.O.V

I open my eyes as the sunlight hits my face. I rub my eyes and get out of my comfortable bed. I go to the bathroom and take a shower. I wrap the towel around myself then walk over to my closet and look for something suitable to wear for a day of just hanging out inside. I settle on a white tank top, pink pants and white tomys. I straighten my hair then leave it loose and apply some lip gloss and mascara. I don't really like much makeup but I like to look presentable not horrifying.

"Carter dear, please come down here." My mum calls.

At least it isn't Mason shouting again. I run down the stairs and find my mum with some cookies while Mason and Millie stand by either side of her.

"Honey, we're going to the new neighbors' place and you're coming with us." Mum says.

"Do I have to?" I whine.

"Yes. Let's go, carry these for me." She says.

My mum must really want to make a friend because she is lonely in this neighborhood. There is no one her age nearby and she always tells me about how she wishes to have a friend close to her. I guess this is her chance.

"Let me just grab my phone." I say then quickly go up and get it.

Soon, we are walking to the house next door. Connor decided to dissaper so it's just Millie, Mason, mum and I. We get there then mum rings the door bell. The lady from yesterday comes out. She looks so much happier now; her blonde hair is curled and left loose, her blue eyes pop out more with her red lipstick and her pretty red pencil dress. She gives us a smile and we return it.

"Hello, come in please?" She says and we do so.

The house looks so nice; the living room is well furnished with red, black and white furniture. The place looks so comfortable and nice.

"I'm Lillian." The woman says and sits across us.

"I'm Charlotte. These are my children; Carter, Mason and Millie. Millie and Mason are the youngest; 6 and my oldest isn't here, he's 18. Carter here is 16." My mum says.

"I have two; Blake and London. Blake is 17 and London is 3." She says. "I'm going to get some drinks for you."

She gets up and receives the cookies that I give her and she walks off to the kitchen. She later comes back with a tray of drinks and little London comes behind her with a tray of cupcakes. London is beyond cute with her brunette curls are in little pigtails. She is dressed in a pink dress and white shoes. She grins me when she notices me staring.

"Blake, please come down here." Lillian shouts.

Lillian hands us the drinks and cupcake and they are amazing. Mum and Lillian engage in a conversation while London, Millie and Mason play outside. I just sot there awkwardly.

"Yes mum." A deep voice says. I look up and see the hot neighbor who I'm guessing is Blake.

"This is Charlotte and her daughter, Carter." Lillian says.

Blake looks at me then smirks and I can see the amusement in his eyes.

"Hello Charlotte. Hey Carter." Blake says sending me a wink.

I roll my eyes at when Lillian and my mum aren't looking.

"Carter, why don't you come and check out my room." Blake says.

"No thaynk you. I would rather not." I say.

"Don't be silly, dear. Go ahead." Lillian says.

"Yes honey, he's around your age. You can't just sit here awkwardly." My mum says.

I sigh with defeat then get up. I follow Blake to his room which is located in the house the same way mine is. Before I walk in, I am expecting dirty room with so many posters of band and naked girls but I see a neat room with a few posters of well known band. I can't believe he has such good taste in music.

"This is it. Take a seat." He says.

"I'll rather not." I say and just stay standing.

"So Carter, right?" He asks and smirks.

That stupid smirk that I would like to slap off his hot- what?? No not hot but ordinary male like face.

"Yes Blake. I'm Carter." I say trying so hard not to show my annoyance.

"I like the way you say my name, love." He says.

I roll my eyes at him. I start to look around the rooms and take in my surroundings. His walls have been painted dark blue with very few posters of 'Fall of Boy' and 'DNCE'. I repeat, good taste in music. His bed is well made and his little desk has some books that look untouched for years.

"So which school do you go to, princess?" He asks me.

"First of all, don't call me princess. Secondly I go to Lakeview High." I say. "Where are you planning on enrolling?"

"Lakeview High, my princess." He says.

I roll my eyes at him. He smirks at me and is when I see clearly that he is more good looking than I thought. His brown hair is now nicely styled with little curls on the top, his light brown eyes shine with amusement and playfulness. A small smirk playing on his pink lips, his arms hidden beneath his long sleeved black shirt that still shows off his big muscular arms due to him flexing them by folding his arms over his chest.

"I see you're checking me out, princess." He says. I blush a little but use my hair to hide it.

"You wish." I mutter. This earns a chuckle from him. "I have to go."

I turn to walk out but he grabs my arms.

"Aren't we in the middle of a conversation?" He asks. I shake my head."You owe remember?" He asks. I roll my eyes.

"You're  rolling your eyes too much, princess."

"That's because of you. You annoy me." I say.

"Is it because of the effect I have on you?" He asks.

"You have no effect on me." I say.

"I have an effect on all girl. I'm hot." He says and smirks.

"And modest." I mutter sarcastically.

He chuckles then leaves my arms.

"So you agree?" He asks.

"If it helps you sleep at night." I say.

"I know you think I'm hot."

"I've seen better." I say and shrug. He smirks and steps closer to me making me nervous.

"You know, they call me the universal remote because I can turn anything on." He whispers in my ear. "Including you."

I push him away.

"No thanks." I say. This guy is so annoying. How is it even possible to be so annoying? This should be illegal; you can't annoy me like this. He chuckles slightly and pushes a stray strand of my hair behind my ear; cliché.

"I'll just give you some time, princess." He says making me blush.

What the hell is wrong with me? I just turn around and let out thw breath I didn't even know I was holding in.

"See you later, Blake." I say then leave without waiting for his response.
