The Boys Next Door
It was a saturday night, July 7th, while Melanie, who just turned 14, and Ashley, who was 16, were having their movie night. Melanie had just moved to Wyckoff, New Jersey with her family and met Ashley while she was taking a bike ride through the park about two weeks ago. Ashely was new to Wyckoff also, so they had alot to talk about. It was about 11 at night when The Notebook ended and Melanie went to refill both hers and Ashley's drinks. Out of nowhere, there was a loud bang on the screen door leading to the backyard, and the two girls heard boys laughter from outside.
"Oh my gosh, what was that?" Ashely asked after she jumped up off the couch and headed towards the kitchen.
"I have no idea, but it scared the crap out of me. I think its just some boys in my backyard. Lets go check." Melanie stated. The two girls opened the glass door very slowly and saw two boys jumping over a fence into the next yard and then they heard a door slam.
"That is so lame. They bang on the door and then jump over the fence." Ashley said, heading back inside.
"Yeah. What do you say we go and pay them a visit? Get some payback?" Melanie added with a revenge look in her eye. They both went over to the fence the boys had jumped and climbed over it themselves.
"Shhh!" Melanie whispered as they made their way over to the door that lead in the house from the back porch. Ashley got a little to excited and banged on the door before Melanie even got a chance to think. Then, Ashley took of running leaving Melanie standing there shocked. She soon followed Ashley around the corner of the house and pressed her back up against the wall waiting for the boys to come out of the house. Just so they could get a look at the ones who startled them in their house. The door opened moments later and Melanie and Ashley could hear every word that was said.
"Dude, the new neighbors over there are getting us back! They didn't jump over the fence, because we would have seen them. So where'd they go?" Kevin's voice echoed through the empty backyard.
"I don't know, but their around here somewhere. I'll go check around the side of the house, while you check under the shed." Joe replied to his brother as he walked over towards the corner which Ashley and Melanie were hiding behind. The two girls tried to make their way to the front yard before the boy gets around the corner, but it was to late. Joe screamed, "Kevin! Its two girls! There over here! Get them!". Ashley and Melanie took off running when they heard the screams of the boy behind them. It was a good thing Melanie's parents went on vacation for a week just yesterday. Joe ran after the girls into the front yard with Kevin trailing right behind him. He caught up with the girl in the back but suddenly tripped over his feet, knocked her to the floor and landed right on top of her, face to face. Melanie went into shock. She couldn't help but notice that the extremely cute boy laying on top of her was staring into her eyes like he was lost in space.
"You know bro, you could get off the poor girl now. You just tackled her. I think thats enough." Kevin broke the silence while laughing at his younger brothers stupidity. Without hesitation, Joe jumped up off of the floor and offered to help the girl he just tripped over some help. Melanie grabbed his hand and stood up also. Just then, Ashley ran back and asked Melanie if she was ok. Melanie didn't exactly answer because her and Joe were too busy staring at each other. She then realized that she was still holding Joe's hand and they both quickly let go. "Well since my brother has suddenly and fortunately lost his will to speak, I guess I'll do the introducing. My names Kevin, and the clumsy one that just did the tripping is my brother Joe." Kevin added. Ashley and Melanie giggled at Kevin's smart remark, but Joe just nudged his brother with his shoulder.
Ashley then quickly replied, "Well my names Ashley, and this is my friend Melanie. We were enjoying are movie night when we got interrupted by a bang on the door."
"Oh yeah, sorry about that. We figured since we havn't talked to the new neighbors then we'd be funny and knock on the door, but Joe got a little too excited and banged on it a little too hard." Kevin said laughing and looking at his brother.
"It wasn't my fault. You were taking to long. You were acting like you had to get it perfect." Joe said, still staring at Melanie. "Anyway," he carried on, "it's very nice to meet you Melanie. You to of coarse Ashley. But me and Kevin have to get back inside to our other brother Nick. Then again, you guys probably know him and us already right."
"We do?" Melanie and Ashley said simultaneously.
"Woah, your the first people we've met that don't know who we are already." Kevin said with a shocked look on his face.
"Well we are kind of new, Kevin. You can't expect everybody to know us." Joe replied to his brothers statement before carrying on. "We're the new band that occasionally sings on Disney Channel. We're called the Jonas Brothers. You know that song Mandy? Yeah, well we sung that."
"Oh, I've heard that song. Wow, I didn't know who sung it though." Ashley said.
"Well yeah, we really do have to get back inside. Are you girls going to be outside tomorrow? If so, we'll introduce you to our brother Nick if you want." Kevin asked the girls while heading back towards the corner of the house.
"Yeah, we'll most likely be out tomorrow. We'd also love to meet your brother if he's as nice as you two." Melanie said giggling.
"Ha, alright. Well we'll see you girls tomorrow then." Joe added. Ashley walked over into the next yard and Melanie began to follow her. "Hey Melanie, wait." she heard Joe say from behind her. "Um.. uh.. Well, I hope you don't mind me asking this. I was just wondering if, well, if I could get your number. So we can talk and get to know each other more. You know?"
"Sure, I don't mind. Do you have a pen?" Melanie asked. Joe pulled a pen out of his pocket and handed it to Melanie. She wrote her number down on the palm of his hand, said goodnight, and walked back inside her house. They spent the whole night talking about the boys, and apparently Joe and Kevin did the same about them.
