Sequel: Forever

You And Me Together

New Neighbors

"Alyssa! Time to go!" Arianna shouted to me. I turned me head to face her.

"Arianna! Your right beside me! Don't shout!" I said,straightening my hair. I set down the
straightener.

"Just hurry!" She said, walking out of my room. I sighed, blowing hair out of my face. I
grabbed a pair of dark wash jean capris, and a yellow shirt with a neon pink guitar. I got
dressed, and ran downstairs. I slipped my black slip on shoes on my feet.

"Okay, I'm ready." I said. My mother motioned for me to walk outside. I did.

"Which house?" I asked, pretending I didn't know where we were going. My father pointed.

"That one. Just walk, and ring the doorbell." He said. I nodded, running across the street. Of
course, my mom and Arianna were wearing dresses. My moms was aqua, and Arianna's
was pink. My father was wearing a suit, so I looked out of place. I walked up to the door,
knocking on it.

"In you come!" Joe grinned, pulling me inside and into his body. I giggled.

"What about my family?" I asked. He looked from me, to them.

"I'll let them in, but I'm not kissing them." He smirked, kissing my cheek. I blushed. My dad
walked in, stopping in his tracks.

"You're that boy!" He frowned. I pulled my body away from Joe, nodding.

"Yeah, he's also my best friend." I smiled. I saw Kevin walk down the stairs, shaking his
head.

"Hey Joe, are they here yet?" He asked. I waved.

"Hey Kevin." I smiled. He looked at me, then at me family.

"I'm just going to take that as a yes." He said, walking over to us.

"Hey, you must be Alyssa?" He asked. I nodded.

"And this is my sister, Arianna. My mother, Heather, and my father, Liam." I said, looking at
everyone.

"Hey Ari, Mr and Mrs. S!" Joe said, offering them his hand. I shook my head.

"Don't call me ARI!" Arianna shouted. Joe's eyes widened, pulling me in front of him. I
smirked.

"And we're Liam and Heather to you." My dad said in an icy tone. I groaned.

"This is not going to go well." I muttered to myself, making sure no one could hear me. A
woman, I'm guessing was Joe's mom, walked out of the kitchen.

"Hello! You must be the Starr family?" She asked. I grinned, nodding.

"Oh, Joe's told us so much about you, Alyssa." She said, pulling me away from Joe, and into
a hug. I hugged her back.

"Hopefully good things." I laughed. Everyone, except my family laughed with me.

"Only good thing." Joe said, pulling me back into him. I blushed.

"Alyssa! A word, now!" My mother frowned, pulling me.

"Okay." I whined, following her outside. She closed the door, facing me.

"Alyssa! How does he know you?" She asked. I looked at my feet.

"Two months ago, I met him in a chat room. We started talking, and then the other day, we
met." I said, not wanting to talk about this. She frowned.

"When we get home, we're having a nice long talk." She said, motioning for me to go back
inside. I opened the door.

"You're not in trouble, are you?" Joe whispered. I made a face, nodding.

"I think I am." I whispered back. He frowned.

"I'm sorry." He said, hugging me into his body again.

"It's not your fault." I smiled. He sighed.

"Okay." He said. Nick ran down the stairs, more so jumped.

"Hey Nick." I said. He looked at me, up and down.

"Alyssa? Is that her?" He asked. Joe nodded, grinning. Nick smirked, running over to me.

"Hey!" He said, hugging me. I laughed.

"I feel like a sandwich!" I kidded.

"And I'm Frankie!" A little boy, around 8 said. I grinned.

"And you're a cutie." I said, bending down to face him. He grinned.

"Joe! I'm stealing your girlfriend!" He laughed. I giggled.

"Your brothers adorable." I said. Kevin knew what was coming.

"Thank you! I can't help it!" Joe laughed. I turned to him, standing back up.

"No, your not cute at all." I smirked. Everyone went quiet, looking at me and Joe.

"Your handsome." I laughed. Joe playfully glared.

"I wanna be cute!" He whined, turning around, his back facing me.

"Don't be like that!" I laughed, jumping on his back. I heard my mother gasp. Yeah, not a
proper thing for a lady to do.

"Ahh! Aly!" Joe chuckled. I grinned.

I sat on the stairs, watching Frankie flirt with Arianna.

"By the way Joe, you gave me a headache when you shoved me into my locker." I said,
turning to face him. He looked at me, scooting closer to me.

"I'm just causing you all sorts of trouble, aren't I?" He asked, smirking a little. I grinned,
leaning onto him.

"Yeah, pretty much. But I love that about you." I said. He grabbing my arms, pulling me onto
him. He leaned against the wall.

"Eww! Alyssa and Joe are making out!" Frankie shouted! I turned around, laughing.

"No, they're making lo-" Nick covered Arianna's mouth, thank goodness. Frankie didn't need
to hear that. Joe looked at everyone through the railing of the stairs, then back at me.

"I wasn't going to do anything, but thanks for the idea, Frankie." Joe kidded. Just his look,
and voice was enough to make my heart melt.

Music's in my soul. I can hear it everyday, and every night.

My phone sang. I made a face, reaching into my pocket. I pulled it out, still on top of Joe.

Alyssa: Hello?
Claire: Hey gorgeous!
Alyssa: Hey Claire.

Joe looked at me, still smirking.

"No, I'm not letting you up." I laughed.

Claire: Who are you talking to?
Alyssa: Joe.
Claire: You're on top of him?
Alyssa: He pulled me on him, thank you very much.
Claire: OH! He totally likes you!
Alyssa: I think so.

"I wanna talk to her." Joe grinned, grabbing my phone. I smiled, leaning onto him more so I could hear them talk.

Joe: This is... Claire?
Claire: Yeah, who's this?
Joe: The boy that your friends crushing.
Claire: Oh! Hi Joe.
Joe: So, what does Aly think?
Claire: Nothing. Her minds not capable of it.

I opened my mouth, pretending to be hurt.

Joe: I think I'm going to give the phone back to Alyssa, she seems mad now.

Joe handed me my phone back, I grinned.

Claire: Aly?
Alyssa: I can so think!
Claire: Whatever nerd.
Alyssa: Anyways?
Claire: Oh right! Are you coming to school tomorrow? I just thought that since you got pulled out...
Alyssa: Mmm... I think I'm coming, yeah. But I'll talk to you later, I think Joe's bored.
Claire: Why do you say that?
Alyssa: Because he's making faces at me.
Claire: He's a keeper! Okay, talk to you later!

I closed my phone, shoving it back into my pocket.

"Alyssa! We're leaving in 10 minutes!" My mother said. Joe pulled me closer into him, until
his lips were massaging mine. I could feel my stomach do another flip.
