You belong with Me

Based on Taylor Swift song, You Belong with me.

Alex has been in love with her best friend, Seth, since she moved in when she was eight. Does she have the courage to tell him?

Chapter 1

Alex's P.O.V

I was in my room, watching next door. My best friend, Seth Clearwater, was on the phone pacing. He was getting yelled at through the phone. Again. When he finally hung up, I grabbed the notepad and marker I kept for times like these, and wrote

"You OK?"

He wrote back

"Just tired of drama"

I wrote

"Sorry"

To which he only shrugged. I began to write down something. When I held it up he had closed his curtains.

It said, "I love you"

I started singing a song I was writing.

"You're on the phone
With your girlfriend
She's upset
She's going off about
Something that you said
'cause she doesn't get your humor
Like I do

I'm in the room
It's a typical Tuesday night
I'm listening to the kind of music
She doesn't like
She'll never know your story
Like I do

But she wears short skirts
I wear t-shirts
She's cheer captain
And I'm on the bleachers
Dreaming about the day
When you wake up and find
That what you're looking for
Has been here the whole time

If you could see
That I'm the one
Who understands you
Been here all along
So why can't you
See you belong with me
You belong with me."

As I was singing I danced around the room.

Seth's P.O.V

"What do you mean by that, Seth?" My girlfriend, Lily said.

I had made the mistake of making a joke when she'd asked if she needed to go on a diet.

"Lil, No, I was-"

Then she began yelling at me. After ten minutes she finally hung up on me. I flopped down on my bed.

Alex was in her room. She wrote me a message.

"You OK?"

I wrote

"Tired of drama"

She wrote

"Sorry"

To which I just shrugged. She went to write something down. I didn't really want to talk. I closed my curtain.

I waited a few minutes then peaked over to see what she was doing. She was dancing around her room and at the mirror. I laughed.

I'd been in love with her since the day I met her.

FlashbackA car pulled into the driveway of the house next door. People were finally moving into the house next door, after like thirty years, or so I heard.

"Seth, Leah, come introduce your selves to the new neighbors with us" My mom called.

"Sorry, Embry, Jacob I have to go" We waved to our friends, and then trudged over to the house.

A man came out of the driver's seat, and a woman out of the passenger.

"Alex, get out of the car, kid" The man said to he seat behind his.

"Alex? Another boy in the neighborhood! Yeah!" I thought.

But, instead a girl's voice whined out a no.

"Alexandra, get out now, we have guest!" The woman said.

"Fine!" The voice cried.

Then the man came back, followed by the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. Her eyes, rimmed red from tears, were the most gorgeous color of green I had ever seen. She had wavy shoulder-length strawberry blond hair. She had wide rimmed glasses. She was wearing a blue tank top and a red schoolgirl skirt. When our eyes met, she blushed.

"Hi, I'm Seth" I introduced myself.

" Hi, I'm Sue, this is my husband Harry, and this is our son and daughter, Seth and Le-"

"I'm Leah, I'm 14, I'd be happy to help you unpack," She said sucking up to the adults.

"Hi, I'm Alison, and this is my husband Mark, and our daughter, Alexandra, she's 12" The woman said.

"Mom!" Alexandra cried.

"What?" She asked.

"Oh, forget it!" She said walking away.

Leah and I looked at each other.

"She's going to be my friend," She said.

" No way, she's my age," I said.

"So, she's a girl, boys and girls can't be friends, she can be your girlfriend"

"No way!"

We ran to her.

"Why, Hello beautiful" Quil was flirting with her.

"Um, Hi" She giggled.

"Hey, you're the family moving in here right? Glad it's someone hot like you" Jake flirted.

"Hey, Sorry about them, I'm Embry and those two idiots are Jacob and Quil"

"I'm Alex, nice to meet you" She smiled.

"Hey, Alexandra!" I called. She turned around with a glare on her face.

"Oh, it's you" She blushed." It's Alex, my mom just doesn't pay attention enough to know that, Seth and Leah, right?" She said.
