"oh... uh, right," i said quietly blushing a bit as i fully opened the door.

"thanks," he said as we headed to the couch while the rest of his family walked in.

"so, you're the babysitter?" he asked and i nodded, "and your name is julianna, right?"

"yeah, but call me annie."

"well, what about j."

"hm, i don't know everyone calls me annie."

"just another reason to call you j," he smirked.

i frowned knowing he was going to be a pain in the ass. everyone else sat down on the couches with elliot and i. there was a mom, dad, another boy and a girl.

"hi annie," the lady in her early 40s said. "i'm liz and this is my husband chris," she said gesturing to the man sitting next to her.

"it's nice to meet you." he said shaking my hand. "this is my son luke he's 14 and my daughter aubrey who's 12."

"nice to meet you all," i said smiling a bit.

"and i see you've already met our son elliot." liz chuckled, "he's 17."

"annie is also 17!" my mom exclaimed.

"that's interesting." elliot said smirking as i glared at him.

"shouldn't we eat?" i asked obviously annoyed.

at dinner, we talked about random stuff. i learned that elliot plays hockey and lacrosse (not surprised). luke plays soccer and aubrey does gymnastics; my father, of course, brought up my past in gymnastics. liz and chris are both doctors and their kids all go to private school. they informed me that i will also be attending their school.

"annie and hayley, take elliot, luke and aubrey outside." my dad stated rather than asked. all the kids except me stand up.

"i would love to," i say sarcastically as elliot reaches out his hand for me to grab.

he pulls me up with a little too much force and it makes me fall into him. he pulls me even closer and whispers seductively in my ear, "i'm sure you would." i push away from him and follow the others downstairs and out the door into the cold.

"oh my god, it's freezing." i shiver while running towards the trampoline, while the 3 other kids run to play in the snow. i run as fast as i can because it's freezing and elliot is chasing me, making it a race. which i ended up winning by the way.

"so, you did gymnastics?" elliot asked and i nodded, "do you think you can teach me something?"

"what do i get in return?" i flirted a bit while jumping around to keep warm.

"how about my sweatshirt? you look absolutely freezing."

"sure, why not." i shrugged. he reached to take off his sweatshirt. what i didn't realize was that he wasn't wearing a shirt underneath. his bare chest was stellar, to say the least.

"take a picture, it'll last longer," he smirked. i pulled my phone out and took a picture. "what are you doing?" he questioned.

"taking a picture," i said like it was obvious.

"i was joking about the whole picture thing." he laughed tossing me his sweatshirt.

"i wasn't." i said putting it on.

"ok but now will you teach me something?"

"yeah sure, what do you want to learn? how about a backflip?" i said because it was pretty easy.

"i can already do that." he chuckled like it was a no-brainer. 

"a back half?"

"yup."

"back full?"

"easy."

"what the hell! then why did you ask me to help you?" i exclaimed.

"because i wanted to talk to you." he flirted, "or not do any talking at all."

he started to lean in until i realized what he was doing and shoved him away, "if you think i'm going to kiss you, then you have a brain aneurysm."

"eventually i'm going to kiss you, and you are going to fall in love with me."

this book is not hannie for a few reasons.

one, lately all i see of annie fanfics are hannie. some are really good but other ones are just, annie moves to la, kenzie and hayden are dating, kenzie and hayden break up, hayden and annie get together, the end. i'm not saying that this is every one of them but that's the way lots of them are. that's the way my instagram book for hannie was and that's why i put it on hold. i felt like i had no creativity in my writing.

two, i wanted to make something more creative where i had more liberty to what i was writing and who was in it. when it's a specific ship you pretty much have the same characters throughout the book. i'm not shading anyone who has written a book for a ship because i read tons of them but i'm saying that i wanted more options in this book.

three, i just wanted to write a book for annie, not annie and hayden.
