-Emmett's POV-
I made a promise 12 years ago. And until today, I've kept that promise.
-12 years ago-
"Can you promise me something, Em?" My best friend Alice asked. "Anything Ali." "Promise me that we'll be best friends forever, no matter what." I looked straight into her eyes. "I promise, always and forever!"
-End of flashback-
Sure, I was 6 years old. But I meant every single word.
-Alice's POV-
I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock. I groaned, another day of school. Which means another day of the nerds, the jerks, the cheerleaders, and the snobs. The only thing that made me want to go to school was... Emmett, my best friend. Secretly, I've always felt something more.
-8 years ago, Emmett's POV-
"Hey Em?" "Yeah, Ali?" "Can...I tell you something?" I looked at her, seeing the look in her eyes. "Are you okay, you seem... worried." "Yeah, I'm fine. It's just...Emmett, I...I kinda like you." I stared at her, shocked. She looked down. "Look I'm sorry I brought it up.. I'll just go."She got up and started to walk away. I grabbed her hand. "Ali," She lightly pulled her hand away. She left, and I just stood there. Feeling so stupid.
-End of flashback-
We were 10 years old then. And ever since then, I've been in love with Alice. I was backing out of my driveway when I saw Alice's yellow porsche speeding down the street. I smiled. I pulled into the school parking lot and parked right next to Alice's "baby". I walked into school, feeling heads turn to see me. As I walked down the hall, I could hear girls whispering. I payed no attention to them. I had eyes only for Alice. Speaking of Alice, she was walking towards me with a huge grin plastered to her face.
-Alice's POV-
I was walking towards Emmett, with a huge smile on my face. "Hey Teddy Bear!" I chirped. He groaned, I knew he hated that name. I only called him that to get on his nerves. He turned around, "Hey Tinkerbell!" My smile faded right away. I absolutely hated that name. He chuckled. "So Ali, how are you today?" "I'm good I guess, school doesn't make it any better." He smirked, "The only reason you come to school is to see me." I froze. How'd he figure out? Calm down Alice. Lie. Lie. Lie. "You only wish, Em." I rolled my eyes. "Well that really sucks, Ali."he said "...Why?"I asked "Because your the reason why I come to school." I felt like an idiot. "Oh." He laughed. "Come on Ali, were gonna be late for class." "Umm, Okay."
-Emmett's POV-
After school, I went over to Alice's to do some homework. "Ugh! I hate this!" She screamed at her book. "Don't blame the book, Ali." I laughed. "It's not funny, and I can be mad at the book if I want to!" She threw a pillow at my head. "Hey! No need to throw pillows!" She giggled. "How about we take a break from homework?" I suggested. "Hallelujuah!" She yelled. I laughed at her. I closed my book and scooted next to her. "So?" I said, not knowing what to say. "So...?" She obviously didn't have anything to say either. "Hey Ali, remember when we were little and I used to tickle you 'till you cried?" I asked. "..Uhmm yeah, I remember that." She slowly said, backing away from me, knowing what I was going to do next. "Okay, just wondering." I said and looked off into space again. "Okay?" She said, a little confused. She took her place next to me again. After a good five minutes, I jumped on her, taking her by surprise and started tickling her. "..Stop!... Emmett please!" She gasped. I stopped still on top of her. I looked her straight in the eyes, and leaned down so our foreheads were touching. She looked away, and I got off her. I felt hurt. She didn't...want me? 8 years ago she said she liked me. God Emmett, your so stupid. That was 8 years ago! "I.. gotta go. See you tomorrow. Bye, Ali"I said, sounding bitter and hateful "...Bye..." she whispered.
-Alice's POV-
I'm such an idiot! God! He was gonna kiss me! I felt like an idiot. I've loved Emmett since we were 10 years old, and when he decides to kiss me...Gah, I'm an IDIOT! I'm stupid! Ugh! I could see pain and rejection burning in his eyes. I could hear the madness in his voice when he spoke. "I...gotta go. See you tomorrow. Bye, Ali." All of those words dripped with anger. "...Bye..." Bye? Is that all you can say? "Bye" What makes it worse is that he could barely hear you! Idiot, Idiot, Idiot. When he shut my door I whispered, "I love you, Em."
