Warning: This story is ridiculously unrealistic and very poorly written, but if your looking for a cute fic where Michael's monster is conquered by an unassuming, beautiful, and sweet child hood friend of his then you've come to the right place! It's pretty stupid and fluffy but fangirling over tall so called 'misunderstood' murderers who look like Tyler Mane is very for real. So for those of you still with me lets just pretend that Michael only murders bad guys and happens to have a soft spot for a girl he likes and is a bit possessive over. You can totally pretend that you're Emily and replace her name with yours if you like, I won't judge.
After all, fangirling is a full time job.
...
They met when Michael was in the third grade. She and her family had just moved into the house across from his. The Hence family, they were lovely Christian people who were overjoyed to be in Haddonfeild. Michael's mother had mentioned that she should bring them a house warming cake or something but then later forgot about it.
Mr. And Mrs. Hence had a daughter who was a few years younger than Michael, Emily. Emily had curly reddish hair and a sprinkle of freckles that ran across her nose and cheeks. Michael would later recognize her at school, she was teased often because she brought a doll with her to school every day and she liked to read by herself whenever she could.
Michael thought she was weird, but that's how he felt about everybody, and that's how everybody felt about him. Emily and Michael were from two completely different worlds, Michael came from a bad home. He was mistreated by his mother's boyfriend, Ronnie who was horribly verbally abusive and by his older sister, Judith who was self centered and also verbally abused Michael. Debbie, Michael's mother, was good to Michael although her job as a stripper at the Rabbit in Red Lounge did cause a large fraction the bullying that was inflicted on Michael. These factors compared to Emily's happy home set the two apart.
So Michael did his best to avoid eye contact with her when they would cross paths walking home from school everyday and she seemed to do the same. Emily was shy around everyone but the older boy in her neighborhood whom always wore a mask freaked her out. However that changed on a warm May day during recess, when Emily saw the blue eyed boy behind the grinning clown mask.
Michael sat on the hard mulch underneath the old blue slide. All of the other kids were on the other side of the playground, playing on the newest additions that fund raisers had paid for.
He was coloring a mask he created from cardboard with the brand new markers he had snuck out of his teachers' room. He turned to look over his shoulder towards the sound of sneakers walking on the mulch.
"What are ya' up to freak?" Wesley snorted in a taunting tone.
Michael ignored him and turned back to his project with a slight sneer on his face.
"Hey faggot! Yeah I'm talking to you." The older boy growled as he and his friend approached closer to Michael.
Before Michael could even think about what he would do to make the fifth grader wish he was dead, Wesley grabbed the mask from Michael hands.
Michael immediately got to his feet and glared at the bully with his black eyes. Wesley gawked arrogantly at how mad he had made Michael before he ripped the cardboard mask into jagged uneven scraps, the sight was given approval in the form of an obnoxious laugh from Wesley's friend, Chad.
Michael screamed at Wesley as his black eyes were set ablaze in a fiery fury. He charged at the older kid and threw him to the ground before violently beating him with his small angry fists.
Michael wasn't able to do nearly as much damage as he wanted before Chad yanked him off of Wesley. Chad pushed Michael to the ground and began kicking him as Wesley slowly got back to his feet.
Wesley grinned to show Michael that no damage was done before joining his friend and kicking the younger boy several times in the upper chest area.
"Leave him alone!" A raised female voice demanded.
The boys turned around to look at little Emily Hence with her hands curls tightly into fists and her small feet planted firmly into the ground.
"Aw look, the freak's got a girlfriend!" Chad taunted with a snort.
Wesley looked at the little girl with amusement, "I'd hate to hit a little girl, especially when she doesn't realized how afraid she should be." He told her with a smirk, "So why don't you just run along with the rest of the babies." He laughed.
"I know all about you, Wesley Cramer, you're little brother is in my class. So I know how your dad is and what he'll do if you or Dennis get detention again." She said, making Wesley raise an eyebrow at her. "So unless you want me to tell the teacher on you, you better leave him alone." Emily threatened.
Wesley glared at the girl before turning to Michael who was still on the ground, "The next time your little bitch isn't around you better watch yourself Meyers." Wesley warned before walking away with his friend.
Once they were gone, Emily walked up to Michael and offered her hand to help him up. Michael did not take it and helped himself off the ground. "Thanks." He said under his breath.
They stared at eachother for a good minute before Emily turned around. Michael thought she was walking away from him until she bent down on the ground and picked up the pieces of his mask. Emily walked back to him and handed him the scraps of colored cardboard, "You could fix it with tape." She said optimistically.
Michael nodded once.
"Do you want to come over to my house for dinner today?" She asked him.
Michael nodded once.

Five Months Later-
The month was October and the people of Haddonfield were getting into the Halloween spirit. Emily was on her way to Michaels' house with a wrapped box and small gift bag in hand, today was the 19th; his tenth birthday.
When she knocked on the the door Michael's mother answer it and smiled at her sons' best friend.
"Hi Emily, Michael is in the kitchen." She greeted warmly before heading out the door in her faux fur coat.
"Thank you." Emily smiled as she entered the Myers household.
She walked toward the kitchen where Michael sat eating a slice of his birthday cake.
Emily grinned, "Happy Birthday Michael." She said cheerfully.
Michael smirked at her and offered the seat beside him. Emily cut herself a slice of cake and handed the wrapped box and gift bag to Michael.
Michael looked at the two packages, "What are they?" He asked.
Emily giggled, "What's the point of wrapping them if they weren't a surprise?" She asked. Michael liked it when she giggle like that.
He shrugged, "I don't really like surprises." He told her.
Emily smiled at her strange friend, "Just open them silly." She said.
Michael obeyed and started with the box, inside was a hoodie in his favorite color; red. On the back 'Weird and Proud' was printed on it, making Michael smirk with amusement. Emily noticed his smirk and smiled brightly, knowing he was happy with it.
He then moved on to the small gift bag and found that it contained a bracelet woven from red and black string with block letter beads that spelled out 'Emily'.
Michael held it up and tilted his head. Emily shyly pulled up the sleeve of her green sweater to show an identical bracelet on her wrist, hers was made with green (her favorite color) and black string with block letter beads that spelled out 'Michael'.
"They're friendship bracelets, so we'll be friends forever." Emily said sweetly.
Michael looked at her, "And ever?" He asked.
Emily grinned, "Yep!" She confirmed brightly.
...
Twelve days after Michael's birthday, on Halloween night, Michael killed Judith Myers, his mother's boyfriend, and Judith's boyfriend. After the long and expensive trail, Michael was sent to Smith's Grove Sanitarium under the watch of Dr. Loomis who would be spending over fifteen years trying to reach the wrecked young boy.
Reaching Michael, trying to find a sense of humanity would turn out being Loomis' life project, as it would be a struggle. However it would later seem to come easy to a certain green eyed girl.
