Daniel hummed to the tune of the piano. Outside the window, the grass was freshly cut and the flowers were pruned. The leaves blew in the soft summer breeze. He'd been here every day for the past year, and so had she.
Every day it was warm enough, the window would stay open as she played. Call him creepy, but he liked to sit outside the window and listen. When she moved to his small hometown, everything seemed so much brighter.
The stars sparkled at night and the sun danced in the day. The young boy lived for that. For the chance to hear her music. Anneliese was a proud, but often cowardly girl. She was still learning, of course, to play the piano and requested no audiences. So he had to hide.
He would only smile when she struck a wrong note, as it reminded him that this heavenly girl was human as well. Such a shame she was homeschooled and he hadn't ever been able to hang out with her. He'd introduced himself to the new neighbors, but they didn't seem to fond of a boy about their daughter's age knocking on their door.
He sighed, standing up as the song ended. He left the property quickly and headed back to his home. His mom exchanged greetings with him and he climbed to stairs to his room. He opened the curtains to see boxes in the house across from him. His window was in just a perfect spot to see into a window that had always looked in on an empty room.
No one had to money for that house. Not only was it expensive, but it needed a lot of work done to it. Now there was a moving van at the front door. A family of two — No, three counting to baby that he'd caught a glimpse of in its mother's arms — worked back and forth, taking boxes in and coming out with empty arms to gather up more
Daniel's eyes seemed to follow a girl with white hair and. . . Red eyes? He had never seen a person like that before. She looked younger than him by about a year. Twelve-year-old Daniel thought nothing of the two girls he had seen that day.
Anneliese just lightened his stress through music. He was too young to understand that she might be a possible love interest. The girl moving in next to his home was just a girl younger than he was, nothing more.
His mother knocked on his door a few hours later, waking him from a nap and forcing him to get up. He groaned and opened the door. " Yes mama?"
" Go be a dear and introduce yourself to the new neighbors. They have a daughter about your age." She winked and scampered off before he could comprehend what the wink meant. He rolled his eyes and slammed the door.
" Yes mama." He answered. He slipped his shirt off and changed into a different one. For a boy his age, he was extremely fit. No abs, but a strong stomach. He liked knowing he was the best looking boy in his school. Naturally, he was flirt.
His eyes wandered to the window where he saw a flash of white. He frowned before realizing the room had a bed in it. Daniel shut the curtains quickly and cursed. " Darn it. Another thing for me to remember."
Julchen cringed slightly when she realized he had closed the curtains. It also meant she'd been spotted. She cursed under her breath when the doorbell rang. " Julie, sveetheart? Can jou get zhe door?" Her mother called from the kitchen, her voice as strict as ever.
The German girl sighed and trotted downstairs, not bothering to answer her mother. She flung the door open with a bored expression. That was, until she saw the cute boy from next door standing on her porch. He had a small smile as his hands were stuffed in his pockets. He had a twinkle in his eye that fluttered Julchen's heart. " Ja, vhat is it?" She tried to play it cool.
