All Chapters of The Green-Eyed Neighbor Who Stole My Heart: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

I have nothing to do after dance practice so I decide to have a town day. This is a thing I do about once a month or so. I walk around, randomly going into shops that I feel like going into, sometimes buying stuff and sometimes just looking, I always go into the bookstore and stay in there until I find a interesting sounding book. I go to the ice cream shop, I go to the park and swing, and play on the monkey bars (yes I know I'm old, don't judge me!).-of course everyone is pointing and whispering as I pass them, no doubt freaked out by my crazy looking nose.I ignore them as best as I can though-But once I'm done with all of that, I do my favorite thing of all, I walk down the long, dirt road with all of the millions of different turns and trees, and I go to my favorite place in the world, I call it Secreuni (pronounced see-cree-you-knee) the secre part is for secret, and the uni part is for unique. Because it's a very secret and unique place (I was thirteen when I found the place, so

As soon as my mom sees me the next morning a loud gasp comes out of her mouth "what on earth happened to your nose?!" She screeches, actually hurting my ears."Woah mom, calm down" I yawn still in sleep mode from just waking up a few minutes ago. "Don't tell me to calm down when you walk in here looking like that!" She exclaims gesturing to my nose."Now you better tell me what happened right now!" She demands."I wasn't paying attention to where I was going and smacked into a door, that's all, but I'm okay, it looks more painful than it actually is I swear" I reassure her.She steps forward and wraps me into a hug "oh honey, are you sure you're okay? Would you like to see a doctor? Or stay home from school? Or both?" She asks, holding me at arms length as she watches me, waiting for a response. I shake my head "no mom it's fine, really it is" I assure her. She looks at me for a moment longer before nodding "alright, but you call me at any time if you want me to come and get you okay?

I sat in bed rewinding that moment in Asher's bedroom this morning. I can't get over how he simply kissed my nose and all of the swelling, bruises, and pain was gone.Gone.Just like that. I somehow got over the fact that it seemed like he knew that I could read minds, I got over the fact that I couldn't read his mind, I got over the fact that he was talking about some weirdo named Valtor, I even got over the fact that he somehow made me appear in my bedroom the other night, but this? This actually happened right in front of me while my eyes were open, I felt the tingling, I saw that it went from hideously purple black and swollen to completely back to normal, I know for a fact that something seriously insanely weird is going on, I just have no idea what exactly.So here I sit staring off into space trying to come up with any reasonable reason as to how that whole nose thing happened. But even after forty five minutes I still can't come up with anything.I finally decide I need to cle

That night I was terrified. The second it's dark I'm looking around left to right, my head whipping around so much I'm getting lightheaded. There's no way I was going to be able to sleep like this so I call lyra "hellooooo" Lyra's voice sings"Hey, can I come over?" I ask "do you even have to ask?" Her voice says skeptically. I smile to myself "I'll be over in ten" I say before hanging up and grabbing my purse and jacket "I'm going to Lyra's" I yell to my mom "have fun" she says and then I'm out the door and into my car.On the drive there I keep expecting to see the red masked guy-or Valtor I guess-pop out at me on the road, or suddenly appear in my passenger seat of the car, but he never does.I quickly run up the stairs of her porch and go inside without knocking "honey, I'm home!" I yell out and down comes Lyra racing down the stairs squealing, she runs straight into me and gives me a bear hug "what's up with you?" I laugh hugging her back "it feels like forever since I've seen yo

I'm in my room at night all alone for the first time since Valtor came and knocked me out. I try to ignore the scared feeling I have, but I can't avoid it. I want to call Lyra to see if I can sleep over, but I already know that there's no way my mom will let me for a third night in a row. I think about calling her to come over here, but I know that I'll still have that creeped out feeling. And last, I think about calling Brandon, but I know that's completely pointless it's not like he's going to be allowed to sleep over.Suddenly from that I get an idea, I admit it's a really dumb, immature, silly, and non ideal idea, but I feel like I have no other choice. So I walk over to my window and open it."Asher " I whisper. No reply "Asher !" I whisper yell, nothing.I look around at the darkness outside and feel chills run up my arms. "Asher!" I finally call out in a normal voice. In seconds he is there at his window. "Hey Princess, what's up?" He asks.Suddenly I feel really lame and I sta
