Answer

If someone is next to you, they are right beside you.  "Close to" has a couple different meanings.  It could be used to mean in the same physical area as someone or something.  For example, someone in the same room as you would be physically located close to you.  The other meaning of "close to" is that you may have an emotional attachment to someone.  For example, you may be very close to a family member, or other loved one.
