Johnny POV
"John. We're going over to the neighbors" my mom said "why" I ask putting on my shoes "we're having dinner. Also I guess Melissa's daughter is coming to live with her and Greg" she said handing me a cake "I heard she's quite the catch. She's 16" she said "cool" I said. We walked over since it was just next door.

I saw a car pull up and my mom was fixing herself so she almost got ran over. Just then I saw a brunette girl wiping her tears away and putting on a smile "she really doesn't wanna be here" I sighed "she's lived with her dad since she was 6 Johnny, of course she's upset" my mom say taking the cake and knocking on the door "oh let me help you" Greg said leaving the girl in the car.

The adults were so caught up in the conversation they totally forgot about her. I walked over to her side of the car and opened the door "um excuse you" she snapped "you were crying and I cane to comfort you but now I realize that's stupid since you don't know me" I said "I do wanna talk to someone" she said scooting over letting me get in the car

"My name is Johnny" I said "I know. My mom was showing me pictures of you and she was trying to sell you to me" she giggled "I mean I am single" I tease back "wait really" she seemed shocked "yeah. Girls are really knocking at my door" I said "I would be" she said then the car fell into an awkward silence

"So. Why'd you move here" I ask "my mom said I don't talk to her enough so she asked for custody and the judge agreed for a year" she sighs "you like your dads more" I asked "yeah, I mean I like my mom and all but she chose that asshole over me" she says "if you need an escape I live next door" I said pointing to my house "I will definitely be using that as an escape" she smiles

"You should get inside. You don't wanna be stuck here with me" she said "are you coming" I asked before even moving "probably not. I'm not the big dinner type" she said "do you mind if I stay with you then" I asked "not at all" she said after awhile "I'm kinda hungry so I'll be back with food" I said getting out and she nodded

I walked inside and saw them talking at the couch "hey" I said "did she say anything about me" Melissa asks "no. We wanted food" I said and she sighed "I'll help you" she said putting things on 2 plates as I was looking at her boxes "she thought you were attractive" she said "she said you were a "hot ass guy"" she said and I laughed

"Here. Take your time with getting to know each other" Greg said opening the door for me. "I survived" I said as she hung up her phone "did I interrupt something" I asked "I was just talking to my friend but it's like midnight there so she wanted to sleep" she said taking one of the plates "oh ok" I said closing the door behind me

"Do tell me about yourself Johnny Orlando" she said "well I'm 17. I'm in 11th grade, I sing,play guitar, and do a little football but don't play for school" I said "you sing" she asked surprised "a little" I said "can you sing for me" she asked "um sure" I said "you don't have to if you don't want to" she said noticing my hesitation

"Not trying time be rude but I'd rather not" I said "hey it's ok, random stranger asking you to sing totally isn't weird" she said sarcastically "I'll song for you" she said, she grabbed a guitar from the trunk and sat back down "this is the only song I know in guitar" he giggled

She starts stunning keeps good pitch
I don't wanna die or fade away
I just wanna be someone
I just wanna be someone

Dive and disappear without a trace
I just wanna be someone
Well, doesn't everyone?
And if you feel the great dividing
I wanna be the one you're guiding
'Cause I believe that you could lead the way
She starts singing stop playing the guitar
I just wanna be somebody to someone, oh
I wanna be somebody to someone, oh
I never had nobody and no road home
I wanna be somebody to someone
She looks a little nervous
And if the sun's upset and the sky goes cold
Then if the clouds get heavy and start to fall
I really need somebody to call my own
I wanna be somebody to someone
Someone to you
Someone to you
Someone to you
Someone to you
