Nellie Primble had three rules:
1. Don't make new friends, you'll always have to leave them.
2. Blend in, being the new girl sucks.
3. Never EVER fall in love, it will only make matters worse.
These rules may sound crazy to someone who has lived in the same friendly suburb for all of their life, but for a girl who has moved 15 times in the past 5 years, this was just how life was. Her brother, Ethan, hadn't learned these rules yet, but he would in time. Five year olds are very sociable, after all. She had no trouble following these rules until move #15, where her window was adjacent to Thomas Allman, the strangest boy she'd ever met.
Always looking for constructive criticism! This is honestly just for fun so enjoy! -Jess :)

He moved away leaving primrose in her perfectly controlled life. Years passed, Xavier changed in every way possible, he got contact lenses and his hair grew darker with age and he was toned and covered in tattoos. He was unrecognisable. Primrose however hadn't changed one bit, she had light blonde hair with soft curls and bright green eyes. She still wore perfect prim dresses and kitten heels and held herself like a lady and was kind to everyone even the worst of people. When Xavier returned to his home town at 19 he recognised primrose who is now 18. However she didn't recognise him. (TW: I have made this story mature for very small reasons such as how her father treats her and her mother and it may be upsetting to some so please be mindful of this when reading the story. There is also bullying and controlling behaviour mentioned. Otherwise it's pretty PG within the book)
