This is my first fanfiction. I was inspired by all these great stories and now something plopped into my head and I want it to share with all of you.

I just want to say that English is not my first language .. So all mistakes are mine...

Disclaimer: These beautiful characters are not mine

And now ...please enjoy ... "The girl next door"


A new "home"

„I don´t wanna do this anymore."

"Bo, please!", my mother said while looking on the street.

"Is it the 14th or 15th time we have to do this? I stopped counting at ten. Mom I´m tired of this"

"Do you think I´m not tired Bo. I do anything to protect you. It´s not a game or something like that. You know why we have to do this. You know why we can´t stay at one place for more than a year. And I know it´s hard for you. It´s hard for both of us. But it´s the only way I know."

I looked at my mom and can see the tears she is holding back. In the last ten years I often saw my mother crying but she didn´t know I saw her when she was laying in her bed and tried to be strong for me. My mother is the strongest person I have ever met. Since I was eight my mom and I had to travel from on place to another just because of this man. The man of whom I thought he would be the nicest and best in the world. But everything has changed on my eighth birthday. I will never forget what happened on this day and it´s also the reason why I never want to celebrate this day anymore.

"I hate him. I hate him so much." I say don't trying to hold back my disgust for this person.

"I know Bo. I can only imagine how you have to feel. He is your father and…" I cut in.

"No mom. He has lost the right to be my father on this day. Don´t call him my father!" My mother simply nodded and looked back on the street.

My father, my father… . No he is no longer my father. I didn´t know a person could do the things he did to us. He has betrayed us, hurt us. How can a father do that to his own family. So no, he is no longer a father to me.

But we can´t live our life without him. He is chasing us for nearly ten years now and I don´t want this anymore. I´m sick of running away. When I was little it was great to travel around the country. But with time it was getting harder and harder. I could never have friends, never have a boyfriend or girlfriend. I could never tell somebody the whole truth. Yes, I went to parties with some people but I always had to be careful, always had to look over my shoulder. I was afraid, I am afraid. Afraid of what this man could do to the people I like … to the people I love. Because of that I never fell in love with someone. I cannot let people in my life with the risk of getting physically hurt. I don´t know how long my mom and I have to live this life but I hope it´s not gonna take another ten years.

We drove in silence for the rest of the ride. After four hours and close to our destination my mother started our little ritual (like I called it) we always have to make before we go to a new town. She reached in the glove compartment and gave me my new ID.

"Okay Bo. So your new name is Beth, Beth Denvers. And my name is Mary."

I looked at my new ID and saw my new identity. A new town, a new person I have to be. Sometimes I really didn´t know who I was anymore. Like the traveling at the beginning, creating new identities was fun. I always could decide which type of character I wanted to be. The cool type, the freaky and also the goth but at the end it wasn´t me. I just want to live a normal life with having real friends and my mom. I guess that´s not too much to ask. But I also knew this could never happen or at least not in the near future. So I could just dream about a normal life.

15 minutes later we reached a little town and another 5 minutes later we turned into the driveway of our new "home". It was a nice house and enough for just the two us. I just hoped that we could stay a little longer this time.

I was really tired and I only wanted to lay down to take a quick nap. We didn´t have to carry too much into the house because we always have to be prepared to quickly disappear.

My mom and I got out of the car and got the stuff we needed. I really wanted to get into the house but the neighbor saw us coming and wanted to say hello. I looked at my mother and she saw that I was tired and nodded. But I have to say at least hello.

The woman who was coming to us looked really nice, maybe the same age like my mother. She had a genuine smile on her lips and a very kind voice when she spoke.

"Hello, are you the new neighbors?"

"Yes, it´s nice to meet you. My name is Mary and this is my daughter Beth." my mom said and offered the woman her hand and the woman took my mom´s hand.

"My name is Elizabeth, nice to meet you."

"Mom, can I go in, I wanna take a nap?" I asked with tired eyes.

"Of course. Go in and lay down. I´m coming later."

And with that I said bye to our new neighbor and went in. The house already had furniture and looked comfortable. The open kitchen was on the right side and on the left was the living room with a large fireplace. I went upstairs to inspect the other rooms. There were two bedrooms including bathrooms. Everything looked really nice. I went into the smaller of the two bedrooms, put my things onto the desk and fell asleep in my new bed.

3 hours later

"Bo, wake up honey. It´s time for dinner." my mom said while trying to wake me up.

"Mmh …okay, give me 5 minutes." I wanted to sleep a little longer but as I heard my stomach I stood up and went downstairs. My mom had made sandwiches and salad. When I sat down and began to eat, I noticed how hungry I was and immediately took another sandwich and gulped it down.

"Bo, manners please!" mom said.

"Sorry." I took a napkin and wiped the crumbs from my face.

"While you were sleeping I talked to our new neighbor. She seems to be really nice. She is a doctor and … oh yes, she has two daughters. One is in your age and the other I think two or three years younger. Maybe you can be friends and they can also help you in school. By the way, I have all your papers ready you need for your last year in High School. It is really good that you have one week to settle down before school starts. Not like the last time when you had to change the school in the middle of the school year. Anyway, I don´t want to stress you right now. What do you think, we could go in the city tomorrow and see what this sleepy little town has to offer, okay?"

"Yeah.. that would be good. Can I go upstairs now? I want some more sleep. It was an exhausting day." I asked and put my plate in the dishwasher.

"Sure, I´ll wake you in the morning and then we´ll see. Good night. I love you."

"I love you too mom. Good night. Don´t go too late to bed." I said and headed in my bedroom. I took a hot shower I fell into a dreamless sleep. This time.

The next morning

I was awake before my mom. It was only half past six but I couldn't sleep anymore. After putting leggings and a top on I went in the kitchen to prepare something for breakfast. It took a while because I had to see in every drawer to find everything I need. I made coffee, scrambled eggs and toast, nothing special. It was a warm morning so I decided we could eat on the porch. I had everything ready for breakfast and wanted to go upstairs to wake my mom when I heard a slam of a door. It came form the garden of our neighbor and I looked over the fence.

And then I saw her. The most beautiful girl I have ever seen. Standing on her porch in a swimsuit. All I could think was ´god what a body´. These legs who seem to never end, the toned body …oh and these arms ..just ..wow. Her long blonde hair waved in the summer breeze. She had her eyes closed, a smirk on her lips and enjoyed the morning sun. God these lips. I would do everything to kiss those sensual lips. As though she could feel me she turned to me and looked me in the eyes. I could stand here for the rest of my life just to look in these beautiful hazel brown eyes. We stood there for minutes just looking into each others eyes and I forgot everything around me. All the problems I had, all the feelings of deceit and pain no longer exist when I looked into her eyes. I don't know why she made me feel like this but I never wanted it to be over.

All I knew is that I have to get to know her.

Tell me what you think. I appreciate all reviews whether good or bad! They will help me with the story

I also have some ideas what will happen...

So maybe... to be continued...
