*Lukes POV*
I just moved into my new house. I wanted to introduce myself to my neighbours. I'm gonna be gone a lot and I might need someone to get my mail, I have to have friends around here. I first walk up to the house on my left. I ring the bell. It's an old elderly man that answers, I'm slightly disappointed it would be cool to have people my age around.
"Hi, I'm Luke I just moved in next door and wanted to introduce myself" I say.
"Well I don't wanna hear it" he slams the door in my face. I nod and stand there in shock.
"Ok" I say and walk down the stairs. I pass my property and head to the house On my right. The grass is long and has weeds, doesn't look like it's been cut in a while, the car is white but has dirt all over. I walk up the wooden stairs, they creak. I silently shake my head, wondering what I got myself into. I knock on the door.
"Coming!!" I hear a female voice yell. She sounds young. I nod a little. The door swings open to reveal a girl about my age. Extremely bright blue eyes, brown hair up in a bun, holding back a pit bull.
"She's friendly" She says letting her go.
"Uh, I'm Luke, I just moved in next door" I say petting the dog.
"Yes I saw you moving in today, how did it go? Do you like the neighborhood?" I nod.
"Yea it's nice. What is your dogs name?"
"Gracie, she's a rescue pit bull." She answers, her voice is very soft.
"Very nice, what's your name?" I ask.
"Nala, like the lion king, only I did it first" she laughs. She's very beautiful.
"That's a really pretty name" I say
"Thanks. Why don't you come in, we can talk more" She opens the door and I step in, Gracie follows.
"You can keep your shoes on, can I get you a drink?" She asks as she leads me to the living room. The house inside is much nicer then outside.
"I'm okay thanks." We talk for a little while until she asks what I do.
"I'm actually a singer in a band called 5 seconds of summer"
"Oh my gosh. My little sister loves that band. I'm surprised I didn't recognize you" she laughs. Gracie jumps up onto the couch next to me.
"She likes you. I'm surprised. Normally she hides when people are over. She was abused." She says.
"Awe poor baby. What do you do?" I ask back.
"Well I have two jobs. I work rescuing animals as well as....well I make adult videos....it's not the best career but I like to have fun" she responds.
"Well you like what you like" She laughs.
"Luke." She says.
"Ya?" I respond. Something has changed in her eyes. I don't know why or how but they seem more glassy and orb like.
"I know we just met but my mom passed away a year ago. And she always told me, dogs know best. Trust my dog. Trust who my dog trusts. I trust you a lot. So does Gracie. Do you wanna go on a date?"
"Nala, I wasn't gonna ask this early but I did plan on asking. Of course I wanna go on a date" she smiles.
"And I'm sorry to hear about you mom"
"It's ok. I've gotten past grieving."
