A/N- So, I was lying away and unable to sleep, and this came up. I saw a lot of the 40 Sentences things, so I decided to try one, only between a canon and an oc. So…yeah. This is that. Along with the 40 one-shots that are going to be placed together that are based off of this. I was really unable to sleep and ran with it.

Disclaimer- I don't own anything…except the OC.

Side-note: the OC's name is Emily. This isn't in chronological order, it jumps around.
