Chapter 10 – You've Got the Love

Naomi's POV

"You're late" Katie drawled, as I strolled into the small coffee shop and took a seat opposite her.

"Unbelievable" I said, shaking my head. She'd tricked me in to believing I was meeting Emily…again.

"You know Campbell, fool you once, shame on me…but fool you twice? Shame on you" She retorted, with a stupid grin on her face.

"I assume she doesn't know you're here?" I asked, sighing.

"What do you think?" She sneered.

"Right. So, Katiekins…what do you want?" I asked lazily.

"I want to hear what you have to say for yourself, because if I think its bullshit you won't get anywhere near Emily" Katie stated.

"And if I'm telling the truth?" I asked.

"Then I'll let Emily know what you had to say for yourself" Katie replied with a smile, as she raised her eyebrows as she leaned back into her seat.

"Why are you doing this, Katie? Are you enjoying this?" I demanded, a little harsher than I had meant to.

The smile fell from her face "Enjoying this? Do you think I enjoyed watching Emily breakdown in a club the other ? Do you think I get enjoy listening to her cry her self to sleep every night?" Katie fumed.

"I'm sorry" I replied.

"I'm doing this because…" She sighed, as she stared me in the eyes "because I'd never seen Emily as happy as when she was with you…and now, well…I've never seen her so upset over anything" She announced.

"Naomi?! Katie?! Fancy seeing you too here?!" Panda exclaimed as she burst through the coffee shop door rushing towards out table, with Effy silently following behind her.

"Oh, hey Pands" Katie beamed "Hi, Effy" She added dryly.

"Naomi, Katie" Effy replied, in a similar tone "Not interrupting anything I hope" She stated casually as she took a seat next to me, whilst Panda flopped down next to Katie.

"No, no, Naomi was just about to explain Cook's little comment at JJ's party, weren't you, Naomikins?" Katie quipped.

I forced a smile before beginning to recall what had gone on, on the day that Cook had been elected college president.

"So, you did kiss him" Katie inquired, more of a statement than a question.

"Yes, but I didn't fuck him" I sighed impatiently "Do you really think I would shag Cook, for Christ's sake?" I cried.

"I believe her" Effy announced.

"Oh yeah, and why is that?" Katie retorted.

"Because, Katie, I spoke to Cook and as much as his ego would have taken a hit because of it, his story is exactly the same as Naomi's" Effy replied coolly.

"Well, then it must be true, I mean we all know Cook. Why would he say that they hadn't surfed and turfed if they had. He'd a been shouting from the bloomin' rooftops, wouldn't he?" Panda reasoned, smiling at Katie.

"I suppose" Katie murmured. "Well, why bring it up now, what's the point?" She added, her brow furrowed.

"Because it's Cook" Effy stated.

"Well, then…what are you going to do to get Emily back?" Katie demanded, staring at me.

I shrugged"I don't know, I've tried everything, I ring her, she won't answer, I go to the house she won't come to the door, she just won't listen to me" I sighed miserably.

"Well, then, you have to make her listen" Katie retorted.

"But I've tried everything" I protested.

"Well, then you need to try something else" Effy stated.

"Yeah, you need to do something proper mental so that she can't help but listen to you…like on that film when Heath Ledger sings to Julia what's-her-face in front of the whole school" Panda exclaimed.

I saw the knowing look as Katie's and Effy's met across the table.

"It's perfect" Katie grinned.

"What? You're not seriously expecting me to sing to her in front of the whole of college? No way" I protested.

"Why not? You want Emily back don't you? And like Panda said she can't help but listen to what you have to say then" Effy quipped, grinning.

"This is mad, I can't even sing for Christ's sake" I cried.

"Yeah, but it's the thought that counts, ain't it?" Panda reasoned.

"Exactly" Katie stated.

"Yeah and you don't have to do it in front of the whole college, you could just do it at her house" Panda suggested.

"And I know just who can help you" Katie added grinning.

"You want to do what?!" Jamie exclaimed.

"Well, I'm not happy about it…but if it means getting Emily back then…let's do it" I replied.

"This is completely mental…I mean its genius but it's bloody mental" Jamie laughed.

"Yeah, thanks Jay, you're not making me feel any better" I retorted.

"Well, you'll certainly make her listen. Well, the guitars will be fine getting there but It might be a bit difficult setting up the drums without your mum and dad noticing and I don't think they'll be very happy" Jamie joked.

"Well, I'll keep them and Em's busy while you and the rest of the Assassins work you're magic" Katie beamed.

"This is going to be bonkers!" Panda squealed.

Bonkers, indeed I thought to myself.

"Right, this is Grace she's our bassist and this is Aslan he's our drummer. Guys this is Naomi, Effy and Panda" Jamie stated as he introduced us to the other members of the band, they were both around our age, the girl was slight and pale girl with blue eyes and black hair tied back into a small ponytail, the cut of her hair causing the loose bits to fall onto her face . She nodded casually to us as Jamie introduced us. The other member, Aslan, was heavy set and six foot something with long brown hair and a kind face.

"Aslan?!" Panda quizzed.

"Yeah, you know, like off Narnia" Jamie explained laughing "Because he looks like a lion" he added as Aslan, nodded at us smiling.

"Oh yeah, he does a bit don't he" Panda exclaimed giggling.

"Right, so Nai, everything's set up, you ready?" Jamie asked a big smile on his face.

"Not quite, in fact I think I'm going to be sick" I stated.

"Ah, that's just the adrenaline you'll be fine once it starts" He replied still smiling.

"You reckon?" I snorted grinning.

"Right, well let's get this party started then" Effy stated, before Panda and her made their way to the Fitch's front door.

"So, that Effy, she's cute" Grace commented casually, as she picked up her bass, causing me and Jamie to start laughing. "What, she is?" She added defensively.

"Yeah, and she's also taken…and straight" Jamie explained.

"Aren't the cute ones always" Grace sighed, shaking her head.

I looked up when I saw the front door open; it was Emily, with Katie grinning like a madwoman standing next to her. This was it.

"Someone wants to say something to you" I heard Effy explain, when Emily stared at her and Panda blinking. It's now or never, I thought.

Emily's POV

"Someone wants to say something to you" Effy stated, as I stared at her and Panda. I looked behind them to see Naomi and Jamie's band.

"Sometimes I feel like throwing my hands up in the air,
I know I can count on you.
Sometimes I feel like saying, "Lord, I just don't care"
But you've got the love I need to see me through.

OMG, what was she doing?

Sometimes I see that the boy is just too rough
And things go wrong no matter what I do
Now it feels like life is just too much
You've got the love I need to see me through

"What the hell is that?!" Mum cried as she came storming out of the living room into the hall, Dad following behind her.

Sometimes I feel like throwing my hands up in the air
I know I can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying, "Lord, I just don't care"
But you've got the love I need to see me through

"Emily, what the hell is she doing?" Mum demanded, but all I could manage to do was shrug my shoulders, unable to turn my eyes away from Naomi.

Time after time I say, "Oh Lord what's the use?"
Time after time I say, "This just won't do"
But sooner or later in life the things you love you lose
Just like before, I know I call you

"Rob! Don't just stand there, tell them to stop, to get off my front" Mum cried.

"Oh, come on love at least let her finish the song" Dad tried to reason.

Sometimes I feel like throwing my hands up in the air
I know I can count on you,
Sometimes I feel like saying, "Lord, I just don't care"
But you've got the love I need to see me through.

Naomi stood there motionlessly once she had finished, as we stared at each other.

"Emily…" I could hear a waver in her voice "Please…can we talk now…I…I love you" She added with a sad smile, as a tear slowly rolled down her cheek.

I didn't move, I didn't say anything I just stared at her.

"Well, come on Em's you heard what she said" Katie said, as she nudged me.

"There's no need to talk" I replied loud enough for Naomi to hear me, the sad smile falling from her lips.

"Because, I love you too" I added, as I began to run towards her, before jumping into her arms as she caught me and swung me around, our lips crashing together.

"Emily Fitch! You come back here this instance!" Mum shrieked.

"Don't start Mum, you heard what Naomi said, she loves Emily and isn't that what's important?" Katie reasoned as she glanced at Effy.

"Rob! Do something! Look at them. What will the neighbours think?"Mum cried.

"They'll think that our daughter is very happy and very lucky to have someone who loves her enough to do to that" He stated, as he gestured towards the band.

"Urgh, I am not going to stand here and listen to this. All of you get away from my house now!" Mum shrieked. "I mean it, I'll call the police"

"And say what? Naomi is guilty of serenading our daughter, come on Jenna just be happy for them" Dad replied laughing.

"Fine, if you don't believe me I'll go and ring them" She cried, storming off into the front room. "Don't say you haven't been warned" She shouted, as she glanced back at us.

"You're crazy, you know that?" I teased smirking.

"Yeah, I am…crazy in love" Naomi replied laughing.
