Abby's POV

I make my way to the new neighbor's house to introduce myself. Willow follows behind me and meets Rosy outside the Millers' house. I automatically know they are planning something because the girls have a devilish grin on their faces. I sigh and work up the courage to approach the neighbor's house. I think of the new boy; his messy brown hair, rumpled clothes, and exactly who I find adorable. It may sound shallow, but he is pretty cute. I breathe deeply a few times before I knock on the door. The door starts to unlock when I hear someone running. Oh sh—. My thoughts were cut off by Rosy tackling me to the ground, laughing as she did so. I hear the boy gasp as Rosy rolls off of me.

"Are you ok?" The boy says with sincerity. I nod and feel my cheeks burn with embarrassment. He helps me to my feet and says, "I'm Peter by the way."

I smile and look at the ground before responding," I…I'm love…I mean I"m Abby." I mentally smack myself before hearing Delilah walk out of her house. Ida isn't far behind coming from her house. Delilah and Ida were laughing and applauding Willow and Rosy. I roll my eyes and groan before I hear Peter chuckle. "I'm so sorry for my friends, I swear they can be the worst sometimes."

He laughs again. "Trust me, my friends are probably worse." I laugh and say goodbye to him before walking back to my house.
