Star's POV:
Here I am. The new kid. My name is Star Jacobs, I am a senior in high school, I have blonde ombré hair, and I have bright blue eyes. I start school 2 days from now on Monday. I figured I would meet my neighbors first so I am getting dressed now so I can go meet them. First is a blue house next door. It's a fairly nice house, not large but not small. I walked up the cracking concrete and pass the green grass as I walk. I step up on the step and ring the doorbell. I hear footsteps and a slow creak welcomes me as I look through the door. A boy with dark blonde-brown hair opened the door and greeted me with a smile. I said hello but he just waved. Was he shy? We stood there in silence but I broke it after what seemed like forever and said;
"Hey, I'm Star, I just moved in next door. What's your name?" I asked
He grabbed a pen and some sticky notes from his pocket and write 'Ashton'.
"Why won't you talk?"
'I'm mute....' He wrote and looked down at his feet. He looked upset so I did not ask any further questions. I told him he could hang out at my place anytime and he smiled and blushed.
'Tomorrow?' He wrote
"Sure, meet me at my place at noon"
He did not say anything but his expression said it all. Looks like I made my first friend.
