The Girl Next Door (A Hayes Grier Fanfiction)

My name is Joanna Samuels. People call me Jo. I am 13 years old.

I have light brown hair with darker highlights in it. I have side swept bangs as well. I have dark brown eyes.

I live in North Carolina. If your wondering, yes I live in the same area as the Grier's. I've actually known them since I was 5.

Actually my best friend is Hayes. He has taught me so much. He taught me how to ride a skateboard, for example. Now it's pretty much all I ever do.

Anyway, my mom is divorced so it's just me and her. My parents got married at a young age. 17. They had me when my mom was 23 and they divorced when my mom was 26. So I was 3. My mom hasn't been with anyone since.

At school, I'm that girl in the back of the classroom that happens to get caught at the wrong times. Meaning if a guy next to me was tapping his pencil annoyingly, I'd grab it out of his hand and the teacher would happen to walk in the room when that was happening making it look like I stole his pencil or something so I get detention.

I've been in 1 class with Hayes my entire life. Sad, right?

I've been in one of his 'Mr. Steal Yo Girl' vines and I've been in the background of a few but that's it.

Ok that's enough info. Let's get on to the story.
