~@I have a crush on the guy next door...crush? lust? or....love?@~ [Chapter 2: TWISTER NO!!!]

I came back after walking Twister for like an hour. God! This dog likes to walk i guess.
As i past Micheal's house i looked into their driveway and saw a girl setting up the sprinklers to water their lawn.

She turn them on and Twister ran towards the water that was sprinkling in the air. Causing the leash to slip out of my hand.

"TWISTER NO!!!" I yelled.

I ran on their lawn chasing after Twister who seemed to be having a pretty amusing time watching me run after him in all the water. So i reached for the leash that was trailing behind him and slipped onto the watery grass.

"Aw man! Twister look what u made me do!" i yelled at him.

He just sat there and barked once. "That better mean sorry in dog talk." i thought.
The girl turned off the sprinklers and ran over to me.
"Oh my god are you ok."

I stood up and said, "Im ok as it get."
The girl started to laugh and said, "Hi my name is Katherine."


"Hi...names Joey, short for josehine."

"Well hey joey would you like to come inside and get dried off a bit." Katherine offered.

" Sure..."

I stopped for a moment cause i had almost forgoten who's lawn i was on.

"Wait hey your Micheal's sister?"

"Haha yea. I know. I'ts weird that we've been neighbors for a year now and we've just met."

"Yea...weird." I thought.

"Well...come on in before the sprinklers get us both this time." she giggled.

I smiled and follwed her into her house.
O-M-G her house was so gorgeous on the inside. On the outside it looked like everybody else's house on the street.

"Nice place." i complimented.

"Oh thanks. Yea my moms a decorator."

"Awesome."

"Yea i guess. Well hey let me get you a towel. I'll be right back."

"Ok."

I went into the living room and sat down on the couch. There coffee table was pretty. Everything was pretty. Pretty things to match pretty people i guess.

"Who's at ther door?" shouted a voice from upstairs...

I sat there and did'nt answer. What if it was Micheal!?!?

"I said who's at the door???"

Katherine answered, "It's our neighbor, Joey. Be polite and stop yelling in the house, it's rude."

"We have a neighbor named joey?" he asked/ shouted back.

"Yea aparently!" Katherine yelled back.

Suddenly I heard someone running down the stairs. And then I saw a guy hop down the 3 steps left and run toward the room i was in.

"Hey dude whats-up...uhhh..." he started to say but broke off mid sentence, "your a girl." he stated surprised.


"Well. Haha. Last time I checked, yea."

"Oh...uh. But katherine said joey-"

I interupted him by saying, "Uh yea my nickname is Joey, short for Josephine."

"Oh...um well cool. Well uh I'm Nick short for Nicholas."

"Oh. Ok. Cool."

Katherine came back in the room with a towel for me to dry off and a dry shirt and skirt.

"Thanks Katherine."

"Your welcome. Well i see you've met my other brother, Nick." she smiled.

"Yea i did."

"Well anyway the bathroom is upstairs first door on left."

"Cool thanks."

I went upstairs and dried off my hair and Put on the shirt and skirt Katherine gave me.
..
..

The skirt was too short and I'm not really into happy bunny but hey, it's better than being muddy and soaked.
I walked downstairs and saw all three Garret Siblings. They broke out of their conversation and were now(Katherine, Micheal, and Nick) looking at me.

"Um...uh. Thanks Katherine...it's not really my style but thanks for the dry clothes. Oh I already said thanks. But anyway I'll bring them over tomorrow. Okay. Thanks for everything....I said thanks again woops. Um how about i just go. Seeya tomorrow. Bye."

I walk/ran out of the door, picked up Twisters leash where i left it and him and quickly walked back up my driveway and into my house.

"GOD!!!" , I thought ," How stupid can i be i was rambling in front of Micheal."

"Maybe Michael's girlfriend was right....maybe i am a loser" i sighed.

I took Twister over to his dog bean bag chair and went upstairs to my room. I then closed my door and flopped on my bed and made a heavy sigh. When i came in i didn't even say Hi to my mom. Oh well...
40 minutes later when i had managed to close my eyes and fall asleep, the phone rang. I picked it up:

"Hello this is Joey speaking..." i answered tiredly.

"Joey?"

I sat up.

"Yea this is Joey. Who is this?"

"It's uh...it's Nick..."

I froze not responding. How did he get my number? and more importantly, Why was Nick calling me?...
