"Emerald, want to go to the movies?" asked Sapphire. "I want to meet a guy there but I can't go unless I have another friend with me. You know my parents."
Emerald held the phone; she held her breath waiting for the right words to say. 'How can I do this without burning my bridges?' she thought. "Why? I don't really think I can go, I have a ride," she said hoping Sapphire would by it. No such luck.
"My mom can drive you," said Sapphire her grin was prominent even over the phone. Emerald sighed trying to find some way out of it.
"Sapphy I have a lot of homework," she tried. "You know my school."
"Em, do it later, you have the whole weekend," replied Sapphire.
"What movie?" she asked.
"Pirates of the Caribbean 3, At Worlds End" said Sapphy.
Emerald mumbled a yes and hung up the phone. Her parents had already given her permission and Emerald decided it was best to change out of her pjs before going. Stripping down she changed into a pair of jeans and a black tank top and a black Slytherin jacket. Pulling on her black and blue skater shoes, she grabbed her messenger bag and ran out the door.
Emerald sighed as the movie started. Invited as a third wheel. Not even worth talking to.
Emerald left with the crowd and followed slowly behind her friend and the guy. She was always dragged to these things. She wanted to say no, play Kingdom Hearts II and have fun fighting her brother in Melee, but she could never find the words that would convince her friend the other way.
Finally getting home Emerald laid down on her bed and screamed in frustration. What was she a toy? Is she just there so that Sapphire can go on dates with guys and leave her being bored out of her mind? She laid there for a while trying to find a way to convince Sapphire that she was sick of being used. Sapphire abuses her kindness and willingness to help a friend.
It was three days later and Emerald started thinking of all the options she could choose to turn down Sapphy's offers. Guess there was only one thing to do. Emerald's cell phone started ringing. Quickly picking it up she saw the caller was Sapphire.
"Hey Sapphy!" she said.
"Hi Em!" replied Sapphy. "Hey want to go to the movies, I was hoping to meet my friend Mitch there?"
"Do you have someone for me to talk to?" asked Emerald.
"No, why?" said Sapphire.
"Then sorry I can't go," Emerald said. "I am not going to sit there while you flirt away. Either find someone for me to hang out with, or find yourself a new idiot."
"Emerald!!" said Sapphire. "No one else can go on such short notice!"
"Then sorry Sapphy I guess you can't go. I am not going to be the third wheel anymore. Find someone for me or no deal. I'll go if I have someone to talk to. Listening to you flirt is just not what I call fun." Emerald grinned, and turned to un-pause her game. "I am about to beat Xemnas, got to go! Love you, tootles." Emerald then hung up to button mash Xemnas to his doom, leaving her friend with out one word left to say.
