*Isabella's P.O.V*

I was woken up on Saturday morning to someone jumping on my bed.

"Izzy, wake up!" I immediately recognised my little sister's voice.

"Emilia, it's too early." I groaned, turning over and trying to ignore her. I then heard another little voice squeal and someone else joined us.

"Izzy, Izzy!" Eduardo giggled. Realising that any chance of me going back to sleep was off the table, I opened my eyes and came face to face with my younger siblings.

"You two are little pests, you know that?" I couldn't help but smile, giving Emilia's tummy a light tickle as she laughed loudly.

"There you guys are." Mum entered the room, obviously looking for Emilia and Eduardo, "Sorry, did they wake you?"

"Yeah." I sighed, but my smile didn't falter.

"Come on, you two. Leave your sister to sleep." Mum chuckled, as Eduardo was practically lying across me.

"No, it's okay. I might as well get up now anyway." I said, picking up my phone and glancing at the time, which said 9:05. I don't like getting up too late anyway, so it was fine.

"Oh, okay." Mum said. Emilia and Eduardo finally got off me and I got out of bed, threw on my fluffy grey dressing gown over my pink and white bunny pyjamas before following my family (minus dad) downstairs.

"I'm guessing Dad's still in bed, then?" I asked.

"Yeah, he was up late last night replying to emails so I decided to let him sleep in. I can handle those two monkeys by myself for the morning." Mum explained, glancing at Emilia and Eduardo, who were sat at the dining table, patiently waiting for their breakfast.

"Hey, you're not alone. You've got me." I grinned.

"Right, how could I forget." Mum chuckled.

"Can I start today's vlog?" I asked, picking up Mum's vlogging camera which was on the kitchen counter. Now that I'm older, I often participate in filming the daily vlogs. Mum and Dad even got me my own vlogging camera for when I'm out on my own, or without them at least. I also have a channel of my own, named Izzy SacconeJoly. Not very creative, but I didn't really think about it at the time.

"Sure, but why don't you use your own camera? We spent all that money on it for a reason." Mum said.

"Yeah, but it's upstairs. I'll get it when I go and get dressed, I just want to use yours until then." I said.

"Go on, then." She said.

"Thank you." I turned on the camera and started filming myself, "Good morning, friends!" I beamed, "I'm starting today's vlog, so you don't have to listen to my old parents nattering on about whatever."

"Oi, cheeky." Mum gave me a nudge and I giggled, before going over to the pantry and opening it, camera still in hand.

"What should I have for breakfast?" I wondered out loud, scanning our large range of cereal. "I think I'm in the mood for some Frosties." I finally decided, "Milia, Wardo, what do you two want?" I asked, looking over at my siblings and turning the camera to them.

"Coco Pops!" Emilia shouted.

"Yeah!" Eduardo squealed.

"Coco Pops in is, then." I laughed, filming myself once again.

"You don't have to make their breakfast, Iz, that's my job." Mum said.

"I want to. I mean, I'll be fourteen in less than five months, I need to start being more independent." I explained.

"Well, don't be too independent. You're still my little girl." She said, making me smile as she kissed my cheek. I didn't really care if the viewers saw this. I'm not embarrassed or anything. I mean, I've been in front of the camera for, like, six years now.

Anyway, I poured myself and my siblings some cereal before going over to the table to eat it with them and giving Mum her camera back so I could eat properly. Not long after that, Dad got up.

"Jonathan, we need more teabags, can you please go to the shop and get some?" Mum asked.

"I've just gotten out of bed!" Dad whined.

"Please?" Mum gave him puppy dog eyes.

"Fine." Dad sighed, "I'll go and get dressed."

"I'll come too." I said, standing up.

"Okay, go and get dressed then." Mum told me.

"That's what I'm about to do. I'm not gonna go to the shop in my pyjamas, am I?" I retaliated.

"I blame her sarcasm on you, Jonathan." Mum said with an small, amused smile.

"Sorry." Dad shrugged. I giggled before going upstairs to get dressed. Dad followed me, but went into his room whereas I went into my light pink coloured room and into my black and white ensuite.

I took a brief shower, using my blueberry scented shampoo and conditioner and my mint and lemon bodywash. Once I was finished in the shower, I wrapped my turquoise towel around myself and went back into my bedroom. I quickly dried my body and hair, before putting on a light pink hoodie with pink flowers all over, acid wash shorts with rips and dark purple Converse. I put my hair in french braids and put on some jewelry, which consisted of a simple black tattoo choker, silver butterfly earrings and a black friendship bracelet type thing with a silver dreamcatcher on it.

Once I was ready, I made my way downstairs, where Dad was waiting.

"Finally! I've been waiting for, like, fifteen minutes!" Dad exclaimed, vlogging camera up.

"What do you expect, Jonathan? She's a thirteen year-old girl and with the amount of clothes she's got, I'm not surprised it takes her so long to choose what to wear." Mum said. She was still having breakfast and I assumed Emilia and Eduardo were off playing somewhere. Because she has to sort the little ones out first, Mum doesn't usually get to have her own breakfast until later on in the mornings.

"Yeah, and since you gave me the money for those clothes, it's your fault I took so long." I added on to what Mum had said.

"Isabella's a meanie, guys." Dad pouted into the camera. I just rolled my eyes.

"Oh, I forgot to mention, you know the family that moved in next door the other day? Well, I've invited them round for tea tonight." Mum said casually.

"What?!" Dad practically whined, "Why didn't you tell me sooner?"

"I forgot, okay? And it's just dinner, Jonathan. It's not like you needed ages to prepare or anything." Mum shrugged, before turning to me with a smile, "Oh, and Iz, they've got twin boys around your age, so you might have some new friends by the end of the night."

"Or boyfriends!" Dad panicked, "Now I definitely don't want them coming round!" I knew there would be loads of comments once this vlog was posted about how cute Dad's protectiveness is, but trust me, it's not so cute from my point of view. In fact, it can be pretty damn annoying.

"Well, it's happening, whether you like it or not." Mum said sternly. She treats Dad more like a child than me, Emilia and Eduardo sometimes. It can be rather funny. "Look, they've just moved here all the way from Berkshire and they probably don't know anyone, so I thought it would be nice if we were to get to know them and all become friends."

"And Dad, I'm not exactly going to hook up with a couple of boys I've just met, am I?" I said.

"Please do not talk about hooking up! With anyone!" Dad cried. I rolled my eyes.

"Well, I'm looking forward to it, Mum." I said, which was true. I'd known about the new neighbours, but I hadn't had chance to meet them yet, so I was excited to see what they were like. I was a little nervous about the twins, as every friendship I'd had since year 6 crashed and burned because everyone just used me to get to my parents, but I wasn't going to let that throw me off.

"I'm glad to hear that, darling." Mum smiled at me, "Now, you two, get a move on before Morrisons closes."

"It doesn't close until seven o'clock tonight." I pointed out.

"Yeah, and at this rate you won't get there in time!" She exclaimed.

"Okay, okay, we're going!" Dad said. I just laughed, before saying goodbye to Mum and leaving with Dad.

"We're off to by some teabags." Dad smiled at the camera. He'd briefly turned it off, but now it was back on.

"And some other stuff." I added from the passenger seat. We had to turn the camera off again when Dad started driving, but turned it back on once we arrived at Morrisons.

"Okay, we're in Morrisons now." Dad told the camera as we walked into the supermarket and he grabbed a basket, "Bella, can you go and get the teabags, some sugar, and some cereal while I go and get the other stuff your mother wanted."

"Sir, yes, sir!" I joked, giving him a salute. Dad just laughed before I ran off to get the things. It didn't take long for me to pick up some sugar, Tetley's teabags, muesli, Frosties and Coco Pops, before heading off to find Dad. As I turned the corner of the isle, some kid was coming the other way and obviously didn't see me as he had his head down, looking at his phone and as a result, crashed right into me, making me drop everything.

"Oh, crap, I'm really sorry." His accent sounded a lot like Zoe and Joe's. Perhaps he was from Wiltshire, or somewhere in that area of the country.

"Uh, it's okay." I muttered awkwardly, bending down to pick up my things. The boy bent down to help me and as he did so, I looked up and finally saw what he looked like. Fluffy brown hair framed his face and looked like he ran his fingers through it a lot, and his gentle, dark, brownish hazel eyes looked at me, while his cheeky smile made my stomach feel kind of warm and fuzzy.

"No, it's not okay. I should have been looking where I was going." He protested, as we stood up and I thanked him as he gave me the stuff he'd picked up.

"Well, being a major klutz myself, I know what's it's like for people to freak out when I accidentally bump into them, so I'm not going to do that to you." I said, a cheeky smile of my own growing.

"It's nice to know I'm not the only extremely clumsy person around here." He winked, making me giggle. "I'm Harvey, by the way." He flashed me a charming smile as he held out his hand.

"Isabella." I smiled back, taking his hand and shaking it.

"Harves, come on! Mum and Dad are-" A boy wearing a Snapback, who looked just like Harvey appeared on the scene, while our hands were still connected. He noticed our hands and smirked, as we quickly pulled away, "What's going on here, then?"

"Nothing, Max, shut up." Harvey hissed, a small blush on his cheeks. It was kinda cute, actually. Wait, Max and Harvey? Why does that sound so familiar? "Isabella, this is my idiotic twin brother, Max." Harvey told me, earning a smack from Max. I smiled at the pair, still trying to figure out where I recognised them from. After staring at them for a couple of seconds without trying to look like a weirdo, I realised who they were.

"Wait, are you two Max and Harvey Mills?" I blurted without thinking.

"Yeah... How did you know?" Max asked. I blushed, realising I probably seemed like a creep, knowing their last name when I've only just met them.

"Oh, um, I might have seen a few of your Musical.lys." I said, scratching the back of my neck. Truthfully, I'd seen more than just a few and I followed them, but I didn't really want to admit that.

"Well, if it makes you feel any better, I watch your videos." Harvey smiled. I frowned at him in confusion.

"You know who I am?" I asked.

"Yeah, you're Isabella SacconeJoly, right?" He replied.

"Uh, yeah, I am." I muttered, a little embarrassed. He didn't make a big fuss about who I was, but when I figured it out, I started blabbing on about their internet fame.

"Oh my god, I didn't even realise it was you!" Max practically yelled.

"Max!" Harvey hit his twin brother in the chest.

"Sorry." Max mumbled, his voice now quiet.

"It's okay." I laughed.

"Boys, come on! We've payed already, we've been waiting for you two for ages so we can go home!" A woman with long brown hair, who I guessed was their mum, called from the end of the isle.

"We'd better get going. It was nice meeting you." Max said.

"Yeah... Bye." Harvey smiled. I noticed he'd been staring at me for the last few seconds, which made my cheeks heat up.

"Bye." I gave them a little wave as they walked away. Well, I say walked, but it was more like Max dragging Harvey. I sighed quietly, as I knew I'd probably never see them again. They seemed so genuine and down to earth, and I'd be lying if I said I didn't think they were cute, especially Harvey.

"Bella!" A voice startled me and I spun round to see Dad, "There you are! What took you so long?"

"Sorry, I got a little sidetracked." I chuckled awkwardly.

"Okay..." He eyed me suspiciously, "Anyway, come on. We're going home." I nodded and followed him to the checkout, where he quickly paid before we left. As we were walking back to the car, I spotted Max and Harvey getting into their car, with their parents as well as a younger boy and an even younger girl, both of them blonde. They must've been their siblings or something. Harvey caught me staring at them and sent a smile my way. Butterflies swarmed my stomach as I smiled back. Max soon saw me and Harvey looking at each other and I saw him start to tease Harvey about it. I smiled to myself, glancing at them one more time before getting in the car with Dad. "So, what do you think she was really doing in the shop when I couldn't find her?" Dad asked the camera as I buckled myself in.

"I wasn't doing anything!" I defended.

"Do you believe her, friends?" He paused, pretending to wait for them to answer, before shaking his head, "No, neither do I." I rolled my eyes as he turned off the camera and drove home.

Before I knew it, it was 5:00 in the evening and the new neighbours would be arriving in half an hour.

"Izzy, could you go and get changed, please?" Mum asked me. I was currently sat on the sofa and I may have been scrolling through Max and Harvey's old Musical.lys, while Mum was sat on the other side of the sofa, and the little ones were playing on the floor.

"Why?" I asked.

"Because the neighbours will be here soon and you're not exactly dressed for the occasion, are you?" She replied.

"I thought it was just dinner?" I recited what she said to Dad earlier.

"Don't be cheeky, Isabella." Mum warned me, "Go and get changed."

"Fine." I huffed, before getting up and going to get changed. I went upstairs to my room and went over to my wardrobe to decided what to wear. I finally chose to change into a white lace halter top tucked into a pair of high waisted black shorts and a pair of black and white butterfly Vans. I left my butterfly earrings in, but took my hair down and brushed it, changed my choker to a silver necklace that said 'Angel' in cursive writing, and changed my bracelets to a stack of random black ones.

I glanced at the time and realised they'd be here any minute, so I went downstairs. Just as I walked through the stair gate, the doorbell rang as they arrived. Mum came and answered the door, while Dad and the little ones followed her. She opened the door, to reveal Max and Harvey and their family. Wait, what?!

"Sara!" Mum smiled, hugging the mother.

"Anna." Mrs Mills hugged back gladly.

"Come in, come in." Mum ushered. Me, Harvey and Max hadn't broken eye contact since I saw them. "This is my husband, Jonathan, and these are my kids, Isabella, Emilia and Eduardo." Mum introduced us all. I waved awkwardly as everyone else said hello.

"This is Paul," Sara put her hand on her husband's shoulder, "And these four are Max, Harvey, Leo and Tilly." She pointed to Max, Harvey, a little blonde girl who looked about five, and a slightly older blonde boy who looked about nine or ten.

"Come on, let's got through to the living room, dinner will be ready in about ten minutes." Mum said. We all followed her into the living room and once we were in there, I turned to the boys.

"You're not here to knock my shopping out of my hands again, are you?" I joked.

"Well, actually, I was, but you just ruined the surprised." Harvey said. I laughed.

"You weren't wearing that earlier, were you?" Max piped up, looking at my outfit.

"No, Mum made me change for dinner." I explained.

"You look nice." Harvey complimented with a smile, "I-I mean, you looked nice earlier as well." He added awkwardly.

"Thanks." I looked down with a smile, trying to hide the fact I was now blushing. It wasn't long before dinner was ready and we all went into the kitchen, where Mum had made carbonara. We all sat down and I ended up between Max and Harvey.

"This is amazing, Mrs. Saccone." Harvey said after his first mouthful.

"Thank you, Harvey. And call me Anna." Mum smiled warmly.

"Kiss up." I heard Max mutter under his breath, earning a kick from Harvey under the table.

"Boys." Mrs Mills warned. I stifled my laughter and I saw Mum and Dad smiling at the twins in a amusement.

"Sorry." The boys said in unison. I let out a quiet giggle. Their relationship kinda made me wish I had a twin of my own.

Before I knew it, dinner was over and the Mills family had to leave. We all said goodbye to each other and I went into the living room once they'd left, only to be joined by Mum.

"You and the boys seemed to get on well." She stated, "You're not usually that friendly with people you've just met." She had a point. I'm quite shy and closed off when it comes to new people, but even when I met Max and Harvey for the first time in Morrisons, I felt like I could be myself around them. It was like I'd known them all my life.

"Well, funnily enough, I actually bumped into them in Morrisons this morning." I admitted.

"Really?" Mum asked, surprised.

"Yeah, Harvey crashed into me and made me spill all my shopping, and then Max showed up. I really didn't expect them to show up at our front door hours later, though." I said with a small chuckle, as Dad walked in with his vlogging camera.

"So that's what you were doing! I knew it wasn't just nothing!" He cried, "Why didn't you tell me that's what you were up to?"

"I didn't think it was necessary. It wasn't a big deal or anything." I shrugged.

"Well, you and Harvey seemed pretty friendly." Mum said with a wiggle of her eyebrows.

"We only just met, Mum." I said, my cheeks slightly pink, "We're just friends."

"That better be all you are." Dad muttered before leaving the room.

*Harvey's P.O.V*

Once we got home from the SacconeJolys, me and Max went straight up to our room.

"You and Isabella seem to get on well." Max claimed, flopping down on his bed.

"She's a cool girl." I said casually, unlocking my phone and going on Musical.ly.

"Is that all she is?" He asked, raising his eyebrows at me. I looked up at him, confusion on my face.

"Yes?" I questioned rather than stated.

"Harves, you don't have to pretend with me," He said, "I know you like her."

"I don't know what you're talking about." I shrugged, avoiding eye contact with my twin brother, a blush creeping up my neck. When I finally looked at him, I saw he was giving me a pointed look. "How could I even like her? We just met this morning, I don't even know her!" I exclaimed.

"Okay, Harvey. Sure." Max said, dragging out the word 'sure' for a sarcastic effect. I rolled my eyes, turning my attention back to my phone.
