Beca's POV
I, Beca Mitchell am a 17 year old very independent teenager, my dreams for when I leave high school are to move to L.A and produce music, I have a twin brother named Adam, nobody can tell that we are twins though because we look nothing alike, he has short light brown hair with bright green eyes and is 5ft 10" which towers over my very small 5ft 0". I tend to shut people out too, I've never always been like this, I've never always had headphones practically glued to my head or had ear spikes or never into trusting people, they things only began to happen when my parents had started to fight, it started when me and my brother were quite young, we would hide in our rooms trying to drown out the yelling from our parents and since then we don't trust anyone except each other we have always been close, when people think of brother and sister they usually think of constant bickering and annoying each other but not us were more like best friends than siblings, my brother is the only person who supports me with my music.
Everything got worse when my parents decided to get a divorce- or is that going to mean less fighting?
"Dad why do we have to move school?" whined Adam from his seat, my dad kept silent and increased his tight grip on the steering wheel of the moving truck, I could tell he was very angry at my mom but always ended up taking it out on us so I just kept my mouth shut and put my headphones over my head and hit shuffle on my IPod. Yes we were moving away from my mom but I couldn't care less, I would just do what I did in my last school, not talk to anyone and mind my own business, but it was different for my brother, he did have a couple of close friends that he didn't want to leave behind.
"Were here" growled my dad through his gritted teeth as he pulled up with the truck and slammed the door behind him, me and Adam stayed put and exchanged glances
"Shit! What are we gonna do?" asked Adam, while I just shrugged my shoulders at him
"Adam! Beca! Hurry up!" snapped my dad from the back of the truck starting to unload boxes, we both sighed and climbed out the truck.
Jesse's POV
"Adam! Beca! Hurry up!" I was interrupted from yelling that was coming from outside
"What the?!" I thought to myself i ripped my earphones out and ran over to the window to see what's going on, outside there was a moving truck parked outside the house next to mine, there was a man that was opening the door to the house with boxes at his feet I guess that's who the yelling came from, There was also a girl and boy that were helping with boxes, they both looked miserable, I guess we've got new neighbours
"MOM!" I yelled downstairs but I never got a response, I sighed and ran downstairs
"Mom….." I said again reaching the bottom of the stairs
"Yes Jesse?" she responded from the kitchen, I walked through to the kitchen and leaned against the door frame
"I think we have new neighbours, there is a truck outside the house" I replied pointing my thumb in the direction of the house
"Really? Why don't you go help, I'm sure they need a strong 17 year old like you" suggested my mom, I sighed and rolled my eyes at her
"Now Jesse….what did I say about eye rolling?" she said sternly pointing a finger at me,
"Ugh, fine" I said not really wanting to help; I grabbed my hoodie and stuffed my hands into the pockets of my jeans and made my way outside.
Beca's POV
We were taking the last of the boxes inside and my dad was taking the truck back to the rental place
"Becs come on!" Yelled my brother from in front of me
"Ok, ok I'm coming" I yelled back at him making my way over to the open door, I heard the sound of a door being closed, it grabbed my attention and spun around to where the noise was coming from, as I looked over to the house next to ours I saw a rather tall boy come out from inside, he started to walk towards me and stuck his hand out to me
"Hey I'm Jesse" he said cheerily with a massive grin plastered over his face
"Um….I'm Beca" I replied and stuck my hand out to shake his awkwardly
"I'm guessing you just moved here?" he asked me, I could only nod in response; I really should be making conversation, so I cleared my throat
"So um what age are you?" I asked awkwardly
"Seventeen, what about you?" he replied confidently
"Same" was all I could say, I was startled by the sound of my brothers voice and jumped round to the direction it came from
"Beca! You coming or wh- Oh hey, I'm Adam, Beca's twin brother" Yelled Adam but lowered the tone once he saw Jesse standing there and stuck his hand out to him.
"Hey, I'm Jesse, wait twins really?" said Jesse accepting the handshake but had a look of disbelief on his face about us being twins, we both nodded to confirm that we were,
"So I guess we will all be going to the same school" Said Jesse excitedly
"Oh joy!" I muttered under my breath sarcastically, my brother elbowed my side to get me to shut up
"I'm sure my friends will love you guys!" Said Jesse practically bouncing with excitement "Seriously a seventeen year old this excited with people moving in beside him, this town is weird" I thought to myself
"I'll knock on your door tomorrow and show you the way to school" said Jesse before waving goodbye and turning back to his house, me and Adam walked back to the house to finally get something to eat
"He totally wants you Bec" teased Adam shoving me to the side
"Shut up, gross, don't be like that" I snapped at him shoving him through the door, he laughed at me and we both made our way into the kitchen for dinner.
