There he is. The cutest, smartest guy ever. He's perfect. He's my best friend. My soul mate. My true love. He is the one, the only, Daniel Arthur Cahill.

He's just practicing his "Master Ninja Moves," as he likes to call it while I call it "You're Just Embarrassing Yourself Moves," in the garden in the backyard. I made him move to a spot where he can't damage any flowers or plants. Me and the girls (my friends), including Amy and Ashley, worked very hard trying to make it look nice, and we don't need Dan ruining everything just because he's acting like a goofball. But I got to admit, it looks kind of hot.

I'm just watching Dan, trying my best not to laugh. I couldn't help it anymore; I burst out laughing. He catches me laughing out of the corner of his eye and walks over to me.

"What's so funny?" he asks. "You!" I reply. He gets that mischievous look in his eyes and smirks. I immediately stop laughing. Oh no! A moment later, Dan is tickling me so much. I can't stop laughing!

"Now who looks funny?" Dan asks. "Y-you . . . still . . . do," I say in between laughter. He raises his eyebrow and stops tickling me. "You take that back Natalie Kabra!" "Who's gonna make me, huh?" I question. "You?"

He smirks. "You bet!" A second later, I'm being carried by Dan into my room. I scream, which is so loud that Amy and Ashley can hear me from two floors up. I know because they come running downstairs, but go back up once they see us.

"Put me down, Daniel Arthur Cahill!" I yell. "Never, Natalie Kayla Kabra!" he yells back. I struggle to get out of his grip, but fail miserably. He drops me on top of my bed, and I start fake crying. I'm an amazing actress, so he thinks I'm really crying.

"Did I hurt you, Nat?" he asks, a worried tone clearly heard in his voice. I slowly nod. "I am so sorry!" Then, I start laughing so hard that my stomach hurts. Dan looks so confused, which makes me laugh harder.

"Dan, I was just kidding!" I confess. "I'm not really hurt!" "Meanie Natalie!" Dan whines. "Aww, you poor baby. Want me to get you your blanky and bottle?" "Yes, pwease," he says, doing his best impression of a four-year-old. Dan may be sixteen, but sometimes he seriously acts like a four-year-old.

"Nat! Dan!" Amy yells from the kitchen. "Dinner is ready!" Ashley finishes for Amy. I turn to Dan. "We'll have to finish this later, Dan."

Oh. My. Gosh. I forgot to introduce myself! I am so sorry! I just got busy with Dan and all. So, my name is Natalie Kayla Kabra. I have an older brother named Ian. He's a famous model. He lives in L.A. After he turned eighteen last year, he left for L.A. I didn't want to go, so the Cahill family happily let me stay with them. I was glad to stay with them because of Dan, and I'm really close to Ames and Ash.

Ashley was really mad at Ian once he said he wanted to go to become a model because they were currently dating at the time. But she over it. She has a new boyfriend called Kevin. He's not as good looking as Ian, but he's ok; not my type, but ok. The only person that's my type is Dan.

Now, my parents. My mom died five years ago, when I was eleven. She died of old age. My father left us when they found out that my mom was pregnant with me. He just wanted sons, but I was a girl, so he left. He never wanted, never cared, and never loved me.

"Hey, Nat, have you heard about Ian yet?" Amy asks me, getting me out of my thoughts. I shake my head. "No, he hasn't said anything to me. Hasn't called, texted, e-mailed, wrote, or contacted me at all."

Last week, I e-mailed Ian and asked if he was going to visit me soon. His twentieth birthday is coming soon, and I want to see him again. I'm getting worried about him, but I know he's alright because of magazines.

Speaking of birthdays, my seventeenth birthday is this Friday! I can't wait! Just five more days. Ugh, tomorrow is Monday, a school day. But a good thing about tomorrow is that Melissa is coming back.

Melissa is one of my besties. She took a short two week vacation to Florida, and she's returning tomorrow. Her and Dan get along really well (but not romantically, I hope).

Night comes by really fast, and before I know it, me and Dan are saying goodnight. We always do this at night. Each night, Dan comes into my room and we count all the stars we see together. Ames and Ash don't know about this, and I don't want them to. It's just a moment with me and Dan. I love these times with just us. Alone. Together.

Da first chap is up! This story is mostly gonna be Natalie's POV.  And that's all I have to say. See ya, Cahills.
