She's Electric - Hunter Rowland // Chris Miles

Baby all I want is you

"I don't want to fucking move, Dad." I sit on our old sofa, crossing my arms. "I don't care, Edith. We're moving and that's that." He says to me, raising an eyebrow. "You only want to move because Kylie wants to. But newsflash Dad, you're the only one that likes her in this whole fucking family!" I scream at him, and run upstairs. Kylie is Dad's new wife, and we all hate her for replacing Mum. Yeah, Mum died over 8 years ago, but that doesn't mean he can just forget about her for a woman that the rest of his family hates. My family is made up of me, Dad, my sister Bryony, my brother Lewys and Kylie, our step Mum. Kylie recently got a job in Arizona, so we're moving from a tiny town in North London, to a huge city. I don't want to move. I'm settled here, I'm doing my GCSE's, and my finals are next month, I have a large group of friends, I'm having fun here. I don't see why I have to move to a place where I won't know anybody, and I'll probably be laughed at for my accent or whatever. I'm different to them. But whatever, Kylie always comes first now.

Today was the day we were leaving. I say goodbye to my best friend, Verity, and hugged her. I wouldn't be seeing her for such a long time. "Please stay in touch." I say to her, my eyes tearing up. "I will. I'm gonna miss you Edie." She said, tears spilling over her eyes. "I'm gonna miss you too, Veri." I hug her tight. I smile as I see that a few of my friends had come over to say goodbye. I walk over and hug Leonie, then Saffron, then Freddy and finally Landon. These 5 people were my best friends, and it was killing me to leave them. "Come on, Edie, we better go." Bryony said, tapping my shoulder. "Bye guys." I say, waving to them, and my heart broke as I saw Verity and Freddy burst into tears. I got into the car, and cried into my hands the whole way to the airport. I text Verity to let her know I was at the airport.

"Edie, wake up, we're at the house!" Kylie said, shaking my shoulder. "Get off." I said, pushing her arm off my shoulder. "Moody bitch." I heard her mumble. "Fuck off, Kylie." I say. "Hey, no need for that Edie!" My Dad scowled at me. "She called me a bitch?!" I stare at my Dad, not believing he's standing up for her. "Shut up Edie. Making up things." My Dad rolled his eyes. I was so upset that I didn't even realise how big the house was. I rubbed my eyes, thankful for not wearing makeup for the travel. The house was gorgeous. I look down the street to see that all the houses were practically identical. Definitely a rich neighbourhood. (HOUSE IN MEDIA). I start to help unpack the moving van when I see a boy walk out of the house next to mine. He had bushy, curly hair and had an adorable smile. He was walking my way. Oh man, I didn't have any makeup on! I start to climb into the van to avoid him seeing me. "Hey, are you guys the new neighbours?" I hear him say from behind me. "Yeah." I say, still facing the van. "Do you wanna turn around and say hi?" He laughed at me. His laugh is gorgeous. "I could but then you'd see that I am wearing no makeup and look like shit." I laugh back. "I'm sure you're beautiful, turn around." I hear him say. Gosh he's cute. I turn around and smile. "See? Beautiful." He smiles. He had these perfectly bright green eyes that reflected off of the sun. "You're making me blush." I smiled, as I walked towards my house with a box full of stuff. "Want some help with that?" He asked me, noticing that I was struggling with the box. "Please." I giggle. I roll my eyes as my Dad starts walking over, yes Dad please ruin this moment where I'm actually happy for once. "Who's this?" He said. "This is our neighbour who is helping us move in." I said, raising my eyebrow. "Sorry Sir, hey, I'm Hunter. I live next door, you guys should come round soon for dinner." He smiled, putting the box on the door step to shake my Dad's hand. "We would love to." I smile at him, because I knew my Dad wouldn't say anything. Dad smiled and walked away to be with Kylie. "He's nice." Hunter laughed. "Lovely." I laughed back. "You never told me your name." He asked me, as we were both now sat in the living room. "Oh, it's Edith, but call me Edie." I say. "Hello Edie, I'm Hunter, but call me Hunter, because I don't have a nickname." He smirked at me. "Hello Hunter. I'm sure I've seen you somewhere before." I say, studying his face. "Well, I have a lot of followers on YouNow, I'm in MAGCON?" He said, laughing. "Oh, I know who you are! You're Hunter Rowland!" I say, instantly recognising him. I had followed his Instagram ages ago because I thought he was hot. "I follow your Instagram." I laughed. "Aw sick, thanks for following!" He said jokingly. "Anyway, you should come over to my house once you're finished unpacking. We can YouNow?" He asked me. "Sure thing, I can probably come now, let me just do my makeup and I'll come straight over." I smiled. "Okay. Do you want my number?" He asked. "Sure" I said, passing my phone over to him. He saved his number as 'Hunter❤️'. "Okay, Edie, I'll see you in a bit." He smiles, waving. I run to the car and grab my makeup bag, and do my makeup quickly so I can go see Hunter again. Oh gosh, I looked terrible. I put on foundation, a bit of concealer and decide to contour my cheekbones. I do my eyebrows and put a bit of mascara on. I untangle my hair out of the messy bun and let it down because it looked wavy and cool. My hair was getting so long now, it almost reached my hips. I dyed it blonde last week for the move, and I was loving the colour. I decide to text Hunter when I was done to let him know I was coming over.

Awh he's so cute. "Dad I'm going next door." I shout. "Can I come?" I hear Bryony shout from upstairs. "If you wish." I laugh as I hear her run down the stairs. We get our stuff and make our way over to Hunter's house.
