Chapter 1: Glamorous

Emma stood looking at her mirror smudging the smoky eyeliner around her eyes she adjusted the straps of her dark little cocktail dress. Her parents were dragging her to yet another event. At least Manny and everyone will be there she thought hopefully to herself.

"Emma, you ready honey?"

"Yeah, coming." Emma rushed down the stairs She was looking for her black strappy heels. Her mother stood tapping her manicured foot elegantly. Christine Nelson been raised in New England, and had married into money. Archie Simpson was well known around New York City. Walking out of his office and seeing both his daughter and his wife ready, he escorted them to the car.

Emma stood alone waiting for her friends to show up. Manny was the first, arriving with her family in a stunning red dress.

"Wow! Manny you look amazing!"

"Ha Ha, I know right?"

The two laughed together as they waited for Craig and Jimmy, their boyfriends. Jimmy and Craig arrived together. Craig and Manny shared a long passionate kiss while Jimmy took Emma by the hand.

"Where are we going Jimmy?" Emma whispered as she was led into an empty hallway.

"Just thought I'd get you alone, I know how you like to socialize."

"Is that a bad thing?"

"Of course not, But I want to have my own 'Emma' time."

"Oh, I get it, Jimmy's feeling unloved, well I can change that."

Jimmy pinned Emma against the wall kissing her passionately. Emma kissed him back. She was in love, or so she thought. Emma and Jimmy were the perfect couple. Emma went to the prestigious Whitney Academy For Girls, the thin, smart, blonde, girl that everyone wanted to be. Emma was beautiful, and didn't have to try hard. She was also very oblivious to the fact that so many boys seemed to fall in love with her. She always dressed to impress and was a sweetheart. Jimmy was a soccer player for Vincent's Academy for Boys. He was tall and gorgeous with defined muscles. All the girls adored him, and he knew it.

They kissed for a long time, Jimmy holding Emma close before a voice interrupted their actions.

"Umm…yeah. You guys are going to need to return to the party, this is an 'employees only' area" The tall boy mumbled looking at the ground. He knew who he was talking to, Emma Nelson. Emma Nelson, the girl that he watched every so often. She was captivating. The way her blonde hair moved in the sun. He went to Vincent's Academy, with Jimmy. But they were in totally different crowds.

"Sorry." Emma bit her lip with sincere eyes. "We were just leaving." Emma studied the boy. He was taller than Jimmy, with sandy blonde hair and blue eyes. She had to admit, he was cute.

Walking away with Jimmy she turned back and smiled at the boy.
