(Emma's Feelings)

*April 25th, 1941*

*12:35 pm*

*Jackson Private Academy*

Emma was sitting at one of the lunch tables that was in the outside quad as she thought about Anya and the rest of her friends.

"It's been a few weeks since I had seen my friends from Highlands High School but I hope that they're doing okay with whatever they're dealing with" Emma had said to herself as she looked over to the right side of her direction to see Judith and her friends smiling and chatting among themselves in which made her curious.

"I wonder what Judith and the others are talking about? They haven't really been messing with me lately which is good but I have a feeling that she's plotting something against me or my friends but I shouldn't worry too much about it.." Emma thought to herself as she finished up her lunch and proceeded to throw her leftovers away in the nearest trash bin.

"But, I've been thinking about Charlotte lately like whatever she enters my mind. I just get this warm and fuzzy feeling inside in which I can't describe.." Emma had said to herself as her thoughts and words quickly made her blush and smile as this was followed with a cute giggle in which was heard by Calvin.

"Heya, What are you smiling about? Did your parents give you a raise on your allowance or something?" Calvin had asked his friend as he waited for his answer in sheer anticipation which surprised Emma as she quickly jumped up.

"C-Calvin?! I-I didn't expect you to see you here since you're helping with that festival but It's nothing much! Just a little happy right now since I have so many wonderful people as my friends such as Charlotte and the others so, yeah!" Emma had answered back as her words made Calvin chuckle which made her do the same.

"Oh really? You seemed pretty swell back there but I'm glad that you're happy since you don't really have many friends around" Calvin had spoken back to Emma in a calm tone of voice as he stared back at the blushing girl which further piqued his interest as he saw her beginning to speak.

"Um, It's actually more than that since I do have a crush on someone…" Emma had spoken back in a rather shy tone of voice as this caused Calvin to raise his eyebrow in curiosity as the young man wondered who Emma's crush was.

"Oooh, Who's the lucky person? It's probably that Russell guy right? He seems to be pretty nice!" Calvin had asked Emma as he was met with her shaking her head in disagreement as she began to speak.

"Not him but It's someone that was kind and wonderful to me and I can't say their name but I definitely have feelings for that person…" Emma had answered back as she was thinking about Charlotte in the process as this made Calvin nod his head in understandment in which made Emma smile back.

"I understand but I hope you'll find luck with that lucky person and you deserve the world, Emma and if you need any advice then don't be afraid to talk to me or Claudia, okay?" Calvin had advised Emma in a warm tone of voice as the pair shared a smile together.

"Thank you so much and when I feel ready and comfortable then I'll tell you and everyone else who my crush is but I truly appreciate your wonderful advice and It truly means alot to me" Emma had spoken back with a smile on her face as she felt herself being at peace.

"You're welcome but I should be going now since I gotta help out but I hope your day continues to go wonderfully and if you ever see Anya and her friends then tell them I said Hello, okay?" Calvin had bidded farewell to Emma as he ran towards the hallway entrance as this was seen by Emma.

"I'm not ready to tell everyone yet but I truly have feelings for Charlotte since she's been so kind to me but I hope there'll come a time when my feelings for her are accepted…" Emma had quietly spoken to herself as she proceeded to walk across the peaceful yet quiet quad as she quickly remembered the time where Charlotte and her friends helped her a few weeks ago.

"I also remember when Judith was up to no good and Anya, Charlotte and the others came to my assistance. I'll always remember that since that was the first time that anyone had ever stood up for me.." Emma had spoken to herself with a smile on her face as she felt a tap on her shoulder which made her quickly turn around as it was nobody other than Judith.

"Good Afternoon, What are you smiling about? You seem pretty swell since you're usually quiet or depressed" Judith had asked Emma in a rather smug tone of voice as she hoped to get a reaction from the girl which proved to be pointless as Emma was unfazed by everything.

"Just thinking about how I got some pretty good friends now but I won't allow your petty words to harm me so It's best to call it quits, okay?" Emma had answered back in a confident tone of voice as this had taken Judith by surprise as Emma was usually meek and shy.

"I know, Don't get too comfortable in your current situation cause you just never know when I'm gonna get my revenge on you for the other day so it's best to stay on guard" Judith simply answered back as she turned around and was ready to leave the scene however she was quickly interrupted by Emma as she tapped her on the shoulder.

"I just hope that you could change your ways before we leave this academy in three years. Bullying and making people's lives miserable just isn't gonna work well in your favor once everything is all said and done…" Emma had advised Judith in hopes of reaching out to her however her words were of no use as this unfazed Judith.

"No, I just love making people who are beneath my feet miserable. It just gives me pleasure and joy seeing people who can't defend themselves cower with fear knowing that people like me can easily control them. It's just who I am…" Judith had spoken back to her in a smug tone of voice as she stared at Emma who had a shocked expression on her face.

"You're a sad person, I hope you know that…" Emma had uttered to Judith in a tone of pity as she turned to the other direction and proceeded to walk away from the terrible girl as this was seen by Judith who had a smile on her face.

"I still haven't forgotten about my plan…" Judith simply uttered to herself as she chuckled to herself as this was heard by Emma as she paid no attention to it.

"I'm not gonna allow Judith to ruin my day, I have a crush on my wonderful friend Charlotte! I have so many wonderful friends! I should be happy and proud of myself!' Emma had thought to herself with a smile as she was quickly filled with joy as she jumped into the air with newfound thoughts of her friendship and crush.
