The Little Voice

Christopher and Emily Camden sat in around in a group after high school and middle school had ended. The two siblings just happened to be in the same group that was made up of guys and girls ages, 12 to 15. The group had been friends since they were between the ages of 2 to 5 but had added on a lot.

"Hey Emily!" Said a guy named Todd Derrick, he was in a grade ahead of her and she had a major crush on him.

"Hey Todd. What's up?" Emily asked blocking out all the communication around her.

"I was wondering if you would…um…maybe wanna be my girlfriend?" Todd asked with one of his famous smiles.

Mom, isn't going to go for this. She may have known Todd since he was 4 and you were 3, but she isn't going to go for this one. And if she does, dad will say no. The little voice in Emily's head ranted on and on but Emily smiled and replied, "sure."

"Cool. Wanna do something tonight?" Todd asked.

"Sure, but what?" Emily replied.

"Hey Todd!" Jake, another guy in the group that was fifteen yelled. "Andy got your smokes."

"K, tell him I said thanks." Andy was Jake's older cousin that could legally buy cigarettes and would.

On the other side of the group

"Hey Chris, I got a way for you to lighten up. It may only work in the least bit, but if it doesn't, there is other solutions." Jake told Chris.

"K, what's your way?" Chris asked.

"Smoke. Andy can get your smokes along with everybody else." Jake said.

Do you really wanna die of lung cancer at nineteen? If that's what you want, then go for it tiger, but you know your parents will kill if they find out. But just like Emily, to him, the little voice in his head didn't count. "Sure."

"K, here I'll supply you with your first carton, how bout that? But you got to buy the rest, so you may wanna get a job." Jake said tossing him a carton.

Just then Emily came up to Chris and noticed the carton in his hand. "Hey Chris…"

"…Emily, don't tell nobody about this. Mom and Dad will forbid us to come and see these guys again and mom and dad would so totally tell there parents and bust them." Chris interrupted.

"Fine but only on one condition, only if you don't tell mom that me and Todd are dating. Got it?" Emily asked.

"Yeah." Chris said.

"And Chris…" Emily said.

"Yeah?"

"Can I smoke to? Todd offered me a first one and said that if I wanted he would supply me my first pack. "Please…I wanna fit in here."

"Sure Emma…" Chris said, smiling that he pleased his sister. It was what was best for her, right? She wanted to fit into the group and will finally be an official member, as would he.

Both of them took a puff and coughed a little but soon they were smoking like pro's.

"Todd, I won't be able to smoke after this." Emma said.

"Why?" Todd asked.

"I can't afford cigarettes." Emma said.

"Don't worry babe, I'll pay for it, if that's what makes you happy." Todd said as he wrapped his arms around her and gave her a kiss on the cheek then he sat down in a chair and pulled her on his lap.

And at the same time, they both her those words for the first time, and both said those words for the first time, "I love you." And Both knew, they were in love.


See? That little voice in your head, does count. Will Emma and Chris get busted? Or will they keep on living this life?
