|Temari's POV|

I woke up to the sound of moving trucks and excited chatter filled the air. I peered through my bedroom window.

A new family was moving into the house across the street, and I couldn't help but feel curious about our new neighbors.

Our neighborhood had always been quiet, so this sudden change brought a sense of excitement and anticipation.

I adjusted the blinds with my index finger to get a better view, and that's when I spotted him

A young boy around 6'7 he was tall and looks my age probably older, with dark black hair and captivating dark hazel brown eyes.

He seemed lost in thought, carrying a box with a determined yet lazy expression on his face.

I couldn't help but wonder what his story was, what had brought him to our little corner of the world. There was something about him that intrigued me, a sense of mystery that drew me in.

He had on a black shirt, showing everyone how buff he was, A green camouflage jacket was tossed on his shoulder. He wore some tan khaki pants a black belt and timberlands shoes his black hair was tied into a messy bun to the back with a couple of fly aways.

He look fine as hell from the way he dressed himself. lazy yet classicy, never thought someone would make those two words match.

As I continued to observe, another boy emerged from the moving truck. His long, dark hair framed his delicate face, and his pale eyes gave him the expression that made him appear both mean and arrogant. He was tall as well, he was just about a inch taller than the other guy. I say about 6'8.

He carried his self with grace, even in the chaos of moving. I took a look at his outfit. His brown hair was in a low ponytail. He was in a white muscle t-shirt that hugged his muscles good.

The grey jacket he wore was unzipped showing his shirt, the strings attached to the grey sweats he wore that matched his jacket was untied and hanging loosely, on his feet were white and grey Jordan's.

Tenten joined me by the window, sharing her curiosity about our new neighbors. I noticed the deep focus her face held as she stared at the boy in white.

We had grown up together we maybe from two different parts of the world but we can relate to so many situations with us both being from mixed families.

Back home when we were kids, we were always exploring our neighborhoods, causing mischief, and dreaming of all the adventures that awaited us in life. Now, with the move we felt like we have no place, no purpose and no belonging here in Seattle.

I couldn't help but notice the girl who had just stepped out of the moving truck. Her presence radiated warmth and gentleness, like a flickering flame in the midst of a storm. I felt an instant connection to her. Her lavender eyes reminded me of a close friend that I know. 

"Temari, look at her," she whispered excitedly. "There's something about her that looks familiar, don't you think?."

I nodded, my eyes never leaving the girl. "Mmhm...Yeah, there's definitely something special about her."

Before we could ponder further, our aunt called us to the kitchen to eat. We raced down the hall to the kitchen to find our brothers. Gaara was eating while kankuro was doing some dance on facetime.

"Kankuro sit down, eat your breakfast." I scolded.

"Right eat before you be late for school, hurry up." Tenten says, sitting down next him with her cereal. Kankuro frowned as he sat in his seat and began eating. I smiled as I observed my family
