Chapter 6

Message from John Elton to Emma Woodhouse:

Subject: hi

Hey Emma, oh right, I already said that in the subject column.

Yeah, well, um how've you been? I really liked your friend, Harriet.

She seems like a very nice girl. Well, I was just thinking, if you were

going to come watch us practice this afternoon. Football after school.

Since you normally come on Thursdays to wait for Dave.

You can bring Harriet along if you want.

It'll be good if she met the team, so she knows a few people

and wouldn't feel so out of place at the community project on tomorrow.

Since it's going to be her first.

I have to go now. Chemistry next.

Ok, bye.

John

We're going to watch the boys play football this afternoon, ok?

It'll be a good time to meet the guys!

So you don't feel too nervous at the community

meet next Wed ( First meet of the term's always in the second wk of school)

Reply back soon! Oh, yeah, another question, how do you do Question 12?

Luv em

Hi Emma.

Um…well…I was actually planning on watching Robert and some of his

friends' skateboard. I really want to visit my old friends.

Sorry, maybe next time. You can still go though, Emma!

Harriet xox

p.s: Question 12? I'm only up to Question 4!

Well, I guess, that's too bad then.

Even though John asked for you to come along.

But, if you think watching a bunch of guys skate around plus tripping over each other is more fun….

Ok, that's fine. Even if meeting some new people would be nice.

And did I say that he specially asked you? Oh! I did.

Well, I guess I'll have to tell him no then.

It really is your choice, of course.

Oh. Did he really specially ask me to come along? That was nice, wasn't it?

But…what about Robert? I guess meeting new people would be good.

Um…I'm not sure what I should do! Don't reply back to him just yet.

I'm still deciding, ok, Emma?

Message from Emma Woodhouse to Harriet Smith

Subject: none

Yes, he did. John also said that you're really nice and that he really liked you!

And remember what he said about your smile?

That was very thoughtful of him! Has anyone said that to you before?

Robert Martin?

Ok, I'll reply at lunch.

Um, what's the third book in the bible?

Message from Harriet Smith to Emma Woodhouse

Subject: none

No. I don't think anyone has ever said that about me before.

But, Robert is really really thoughtful! Once he helped me with my

Biology project, but he got some facts mixed up. But I still got a C.

Third book? I'm not sure. These RE quiz sheets are way harder than the ones

at Highbury.

Message from Emma Woodhouse to Harriet Smith

Subject: none

So he screwed your project up?

Well, of course they're harder here; we are in the top one percentage of Queensland!

What about Highbury?

Message from Harriet Smith to Emma Woodhouse

Subject: none

Well, not really. I still got a C! Um…I'm not sure about Highbury.

OK, I've decided, I'll go with you to football practice this afternoon.

Subject: Re:

Hi John:

Yeah, Harriet's really really nice! She's such a good friend.

Harriet and I are coming along this afternoon.

She's really excited. That was really nice of you to ask her along as well.

I'm sure everybody would love to meet her!

Ok, well, can't wait! Have a lovely day!

Emma 

Message from Emma Woodhouse to Taylor Lee

Subject: OMG

She can seriously not go with Robert Martin. I mean it!

I mean, she just told me that in order to be a school captain or house captain

at Highbury, you need to have an average B-.

HELLO?! Is the world going nuts?! A B-! If that same stupid rule

applied here at Hartfield, Cecilia Bates can easily be school captain!

Luv Em

P.S: We're going to footie prac. You tagging along?

P.P.S: She thinks a C is good! She has seriously been living

underneath a rock! We need to help her, Taylor, I am NOT letting

Robert Martin or some other foul Highbury nobody screw up my plans!
