Eva set the last box down in her new house. Her parents had helped her buy it, and she was finally here. She sighed happily and brushed a piece of hair out of her face before bringing herslef upright again. She looked out of the newly-cleaned window and thought about her boyfriend back in Mississippi. She had just recently come to California to follow her dream career as a fashion stylist. Her boyfriend hadn't been able to join her due to his own job, and he refused to do a long-distance relationship, although Eva was still in love with him. Tears jerked at the corners of her eyes as she thought of him, but turned away and tried to forget him. She began to unload the boxes and place furniture and other knick-knacks around her new home. She left the front door open, the screen pulled over the door.

(Post pic later)

Brian sighed and squinted his eyes against the sun. He ran a hand through his mop of brown hair and looked up at the building that someone had recently moved into. His mom had made him come with a welcome basket, after all, they were neighbors now. He stepped onto the porch, knocked several times, and waited, feeling stupid.

[Guest]

Eva looked up from her work and sighed, tying her sweatshirt around her waist. She walked to the door and opened it, seeing a rather cute young man standing there. She gave a sweet smile and opened the door some more, "Hey there," She said with her faint country accent, "How can I help you?" She looked out across the street momentarily before returning her eyes onto his face. "I'd ask you to come in but it's a mess in here." She smiled sheepishly.

[Harley]

"Aye, no problem, mother just wanted me to drop this off. She pesteres every neighbor. Glad I just moved out." He said in a faitn australian accent. "But, I'm Brian, and you are?" His deep blue eyes went straight into hers.

[Guest]

Eva shifted as she took the welcome basket, "That was considerate of her." She smiled and listened when he told her his name. "I'm Eva." She replied as she put the basket inside coming back to the door quickly. "I'm sorry to break up the conversation, but I have to finish unpacking these boxes. Maybe you could stop by later today? Maybe this evening. I should be done then." She smiled, hoping it didn't seem like she was trying to get rid of him. Momentarily captivated by his blue eyes, she waited for his reply.

[Harley]

"See you then." He said and nodded. With his hands in his pockets, he exited and ran back to his own place. "Wow...." Brian sighed and tapped his thigh.

[Guest]

Eva stayed put for a few more seconds, wallowing in his wake, before turning back to her work and sighing. She had a lot of work to do.


-- Later that Day --

She finally finished and sighed happily. She jogged up the stairs and changed from her tattered rock-washed light jeans into her dark blue skinny-jeans and a t-shirt that read: "God loves you, but i'm his favorite." She yawned and stretched, walking back downstairs and sitting on one of her cushioned chairs, resting her feet on the coffee table.

[Harley]

After he had showered, Brian put on a black Tee and some regular boot cut jeans and cowboy boots. Again, he combed his hair and ran over to her house. He knocked on the door and hid on the wall.

[Guest]

Eva listened when she heard a knock on the door. She slowly got up and walked over to the door. She unlocked the door and opened the door. She looked out the door, but didn't see anybody. She put her hand on her hip and rolled her eyes.

[Harley]

Brian jumped out and tugged her out into the step. "Got ya!" He laughed and let her go. He smirked and leaned on the wall, ready to smile at her reaction.

[Guest]

Eva smiled and laughed, jumping a little bit when he pulled her out onto the step. She gave him a stern look them just smiled, playfully hitting his shoulder. Once she stopped laughing, she opened the door again and opened it, "Come on in, silly." She said, a smile still on her face.

[Harley]

He walked in and whistled. "Nice place." Brian laughed and looked towards the ceiling. "Sooooo...."

[ it's okay ]

Eva smiled and sat down on the couch, folding one leg underneath her. "Thanks," she said quietly. "Soo...what? Anything you want to do? Hungry, thirsty, maybe?" She smiledd a little bit, looking him over again. he was quite handsome.

[Harley]

"Nah, I'm good." He said and flopped down beside her. He looked around, not sure what to say. "Anything you wanna do?"

[Guest]

Eva turned herself so she could face him, then shrugged. "I dunno. Anything you want to do is game with me." She smiled.

[Harley]

"Hmm, how about you choose?" He teased and closed his eyes. "Cause my mind is not working."

[Guest]

"I can tell," she laughed and tapped his nose, turning her head to look at the wall opposite of her. "You know... I really have no idea what to do." She leaned back on her seat, moving her feet to the coffee table. "So just tell me about yourself." She turned her head and propped it up on her hand.

[Harley]

"Well.... I moved out when I was 17, going to college in a year or so. No idea." He sighed and looked at her. "what about you?"

[Guest]

She sighed, "There's not much I can say. As you know I just moved in today... Moved here from California." She shrugged. "That's pretty much it. Except I left my old boyfriend there. He didn't want to do the long distance relationship thing." She sighed and shifted uncomfortably, dropping her gaze to the floor.

[Harley]

"Oh..." He said and looked away, biting his bottom lip. "We can go to the park?" Brian asked and stood, offering her his hand.

[Guest]

She looked up at him and shrugged, "That sounds nice." She replied, taking his hand and pulling herself off the couch, keeping a smile on her face.

[Harley]

(Here he is- )

He left her house with her in tow. Brian hurried across the street, rather rushed by traffic. "Ok!" He announced as he sat her down on a bench next to a pond.
