Honestly, his eyes are just perfect.
Natalie's POV-
The second I saw him I knew I loved him. His hair, the way it stuck all over the place but still was so casual. His eyes... The color of hazel. His name?
Mitchell Hughes.
The YouTuber. The Canadian heart-throb. The Benj. But to me it was the guy that changed my whole life. Forever.
Earlier that year...
Natalie's POV-
I set down the final box in my new room. It was blank and boring, pretty much like my social life. Moving to a new house is so tough, ya know? New school, new neighborhood, new people that you're forced to like. Yep, I knew life was gonna suck when I heard I was moving.
I opened a box full of clothes and started to hang them up in the closet. My mom peeked through the door, she'd been so filled with errands lately I was really surprised she remembered me.
"Hey sweetie." She smiled. Despite the lack of sleep, her face looked alive.
"What's up, Mom?" I smiled.
"Just checking in on the unpacking. I know how hard it is to move to a new place."
"I'll be fine. Can you go now?"
She closed the door and I sank my head into a bag of bed sheets. I am not fine. Never have been, and after this whole big move, never will be.
Being 19 and not in college was tough enough. My dad passed away last month and my mom's job wasn't making enough money. I had to drop out of college during the end of the first semester. I want a boyfriend. Someone to keep me happy and away from all of this crap. I walked over to my window and prayed open the doors that seemed like they were crusted shut with glue. Taking a breath I looked out my window to see a boy, about my age yelling at a computer screen.
I was about to think he was another ordinary nerd but when I looked a little closer I saw he was a lot more different then that. He had the prettiest brown hair and a smile that made me smile. Something about his looks made me happy.
I must have been staring like a stalker or something because he saw me and his eyes grew like, huge. He smiled at me and returned to his computer.
OMG he was hot.... Maybe this move wouldn't suck after all.
Mitch's POV-
"Jerome you dirty bac!" I cried out through the microphone. In the game, he had just burned a wooden sword while I stood there.
"WO LO WO LO WO LO!!!" Jerome laughed.
I looked out my window. Was someone, like watching me? I knew we had new neighbors but... It was a girl. She was hot. My eyes must have looked like dinner plates. Man, I haven't seen a person that pretty in forever. I guess she thought the same about me. I didn't know what to say. I got goosebumps and just smiled weakly and returned to the game.
'Good thinking Mitch...' My mind scolded.
"Mitch you ok, dude?" Jerome asked.
I shook my head. How long had I been silent? "Sorry Jerome, you know the Benjas space out sometimes..."
"Das fine..." Jerome said.
After recording was done, Jerome quit out of Minecraft and talked to me face to face while my latest video uploaded in the background. Jerome looked serious. "Dude, you said absolutely nothing for 2 minutes. You didn't even react when you died. Something's up biggums."
I kinda froze. I didn't know whether to tell him or not. I wouldn't tell him. "Well there's this girl..." 'Dammit Mitch..'
"Oh a girl..." Jerome smirked, giving me that ooohhh sort of look
"Dude I swear she's beautiful, it's not gonna be a waste of a relationship."
"Go talk to her dude. That's the only advice I can give you." He was looking down the whole time he said it.
The Skype call died and only seconds later I got a text from Adam. (A= Adam not A from pretty little liars)
