Chapter 1
Summer's POV (unedited)

It was a Saturday morning and I woke up around 9. I walk downstairs to see what my twin brother Ryan was doing.
"Hey Sum," he says.
"Hi Ry."
"Any plans for today?"
"Umm, I might go hang out with Zara at the mall or something."
"Well there is a party tonight at my friend's house, wanna come?"
"Sure, what time?" I ask.
"Umm, I think it's at 8."

I should probably give you some background about my life. I'm Summer Anderson and I live with my twin brother in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Our parents were very bad people. They abused us and got away with it. So last year Ryan and I ran away from Ohio to finish high school here and have a better life. The two of us live in our Aunt's beach house. (She lives in her other house that's not on the beach and comes to check up on us regularly.) We have met so many amazing people and I love it here. Ryan and I have gotten so close because of us moving away from our parents. I am going to be in 12th grade this year and I am so excited to get out of school and go to college.
    After talking with Ryan for a while, I get a text from my best friend Zara.
"I'm gonna go to the beach with Zara, wanna come?"
"Sure." We both go get our bathing suits on and walk down to the beach.
"Hey Zara," I say as I walk over to her.
"Hey Summer, did you get invited to the party tonight?"
"Yeah Ryan and I are going."
"Cool, wanna get ready together?" she asks.
"Sure, meet me at my house at 6?" I ask.
"Yeah, sure." We spend the rest of the day in the water and walking on the beach.
    We left around 2 and headed back to our house.
"See you at 6!" Zara waved goodbye.
"See ya!" When we got home I went up to my room and went on my phone. After a few minutes, a truck pulled down the street. I got up to see that it was a moving truck. I guess we were getting new neighbors. I waited a minute to see who they were gonna be. I see a girl and a boy step out, they look to be the same age as me. After a minute of observing them, the boy looks up at my window. I quickly walk away from the window and went back and laid down on my bed. Next thing I know Zara was standing above me. I must've fallen asleep.
"What are you doing?? It's 6 o'clock and we have to be ready by 7:30!" she exclaims.
"Ugh whatever," I say, getting out of bed. I walk over to my closet and grab a pink tank top with jeans. After I put on my outfit,  I curled my hair, put on a nice belt that matches my outfit, and went to see if Zara was ready yet.
"Danggg sis you look hot," she said. I laughed.
"Thanks so do you," I say. She was dressed in a small black dress and her hair was braided in a french braid. We still had a few minutes before we had to leave. I sat down in my chair and went on my phone.
"So, it looks like you have new neighbors," she says.
"Yeah, they look to be about our age," I say, still looking at my phone, "It was a girl and a boy."
"Oh, a new girl finally... there are no cute girls around here."
"Hey!"
"I mean you are hot... but you're my best friend."
"I know," I giggle, "Come on let's go to the party." We go downstairs and get in the car with Ryan. When we get there the scent of alcohol makes me gag. I've never had alcohol and I don't plan on having it anytime soon. After we walk in, Ryan goes to find his friends and a boy comes up to me and Zara.
"You ladies want a drink?" he asks, smirking.
"No," I say grabbing Zara's hand and walking away. He steps in front of me causing me to run into him.
"I'm Cole," he says biting his lip.
"Cool, and I am not interested." I walk away and thank god he doesn't follow this time. Zara and I go sit down on the couch and talk for a while. Around 10:30 we decide the party was getting boring and it was time to go home. I stand up off the couch and get pushed to the ground. I stood up and looked at the tall boy towering above me. I recognized him as the new neighbor. Great.
"Ugh watch where you're going, bitch," He slurred.
"You're the one who bumped into me, idiot," before he could say anything else, I rolled my eyes and walked away. Just as we were going to walk out the door, Zara told me she was going to get Ryan. I waited by the door and all of a sudden I got pushed up against the wall.
"I don't think we got to finish what we started earlier..." I looked up to see that it was Cole.
"Get off of me!" I shout trying to push him off. Then after a few moments of struggling, I feel a force yank Cole off of me. It was neighbor boy. Why was he helping me? After a second of standing there frozen I walk out the door without saying anything. Zara and Ryan follow behind me speechless.
"Wait!" a voice behind me calls. It was neighbor boy. I just roll my eyes and keep walking to the car. When we get to the car I get in the driver's seat and release a breath I didn't know I was holding.
"What the hell was that?" they both ask at the same time.
