IT'S-A ME AGAIN!
Sorry this is a tiny bit late, my school year is ending and i'm going to be year 9 next year nd I'm fREAKING OUT, so yeah.
Review if you can, and enjoy!
"...and that's a good way to remember the formula for working out a circle's circumference."
The bell rang. Everyone in the class began to stand up and pack their bags.
"Ok, class, homework is to do this sheet! Please collect it on the way out!" Lucy's teacher shouted from the front of the class.
Lucy and Emmet each took a sheet, and walked out, chattering excitedly about their favourite TV shows:
"You can't be serious!" She doubled over, laughing hysterically.
Emmet poured playfully. "What's the problem with Where's My Pants?"
"It's so dumb! Like, the same thing over and over and over- "
"Alright, I get it," he grinned. "But yours is even dumber."
"What?! How dare you say that about the legendary Spongebob?! I like cartoons!" She defended herself as they sat down at their usual bench on the school field.
"Well, whatever. Watch what you want to. I've got no problem with it." He chuckled as he pulled out his lunch from his rucksack.
Lucy looked over the questions on the maths homework and groaned. "These are impossible! "15 Pi diameter'? What does that even mean? Gah!" She buried her head in his arms dramatically, sighing.
Emmet giggled at her actions. "You know, I could teach you if you want. It's not that hard when you have someone good teaching you."
He flushed suddenly.
"I mean, not that I think I'm good or anything, I just meant-"
It was Lucy's turn to laugh now.
"Emmet, chill out! It's fine. And if you're good at teaching and can help me understand what the heck it is I need to do, then that's fine by me." She smiled softly.
How she wished she could kiss him right now. Tell him he's all she's even wanted. Show her affection in public.
Be together.
But as long as Batman was still in the equation...
Lucy groaned internally.
Wow, she did that a lot, didn't she?

How much longer would it take to fill up her sketchbook?
She started another drawing, just a simple doodle page of random people. No definite details to make people think it was them.
She brushed her (newly hightlighted blue and pink) hair out of her eyes, sat back and looked back over what she had drawn.
It was a wedding scene. The couple were at the altar, backs turned. A priest stood between them, smiling softly.
"What do I colour in?" she murmured quietly to herself.
'You and Emmet!'
'If you wish to, you can, just make sure that he never sees while you are still friends.'
"When did you two decide to work your ways into my head again?"
She began colouring from the very edges, so she'd have to colour in the bride and groom last.
Music blasted through her headphones at probably unsafe levels.
Her main playlist was always changing, with so many genres in one place it was almost multicultural.
There was:
Emo music;
"When I was, a young boy..."
Britpop;
"He lives in a house, a very big house in the country..."
Really old songs;
"Golden brown, texture like sun..."
Electroswing;
"Let's face it, leeeet's face it.."
Aaaand just good old Panic! At The Disco;
"I CHIME IN WITH A 'HAVEN'T YOU PEOPLE EVER HEARD OF, CLOSING THE GODDAMN DOOR, NO'!"
Uh, yeah.
She spent ages delicately colouring the small flowers on the dress, making sure not to jog her hand and ruin the picture-perfect scene.
Until there came the hair.
Should she?
Her brown pencil hovered longingly over the groom's locks, nearly there but not quite.
She hesitated-
And put the pencil down.
"I'll do it in the morning."

Emmet sat at the table downstairs finishing a piece of homework. He clicked his tongue, frustrated that he couldn't work out how to balance scientific equations.
Suddenly, someone shoved his shoulder, and he heard a scraping noise next to him. He looked up.
"Oh, hey Rex," Emmet said absent-mindedly, continuing with his science homework.
Rex smirked. "Benny told me you got yourself a new crush."
Emmet started. "What the heck?! When? Oh my gosh, I'm going to kill him- "
Rex had started laughing. "Dude, don't worry. I'm not gonna tease you 'bout it."
Emmet exhaled deeply. "Thanks."
Rex smiled softly. "Look, dude, if you reaaaally like her, you just gotta go with your heart." He grimaced. "That was sappy as frick."
"There's no point, she already has a boyfriend." He buried his head into his arms dramatically.
Rex raised his eyebrows.
"Ok, one, you didn't acknowledge that I actually showed emotion for once. And two, there's every point! Just keep being there for her. That's all you can really do at the moment, but..." he trailed off. "Yeah."
Emmet smiled. "Thanks. Uh, do you know how to balance equations, by any chance?"
Rex looked at Emmet.
"What do you think?"
Who-ever can guess all the songs Lucy was listening to gets a free digital drawing of any character from TLM 1 or 2 lmao
