Hello once again. I'm grounded for the next two months so i'll be updating lots and lots more, yay, right? Well I hope none of you are bored with this because it's only just getting started ;)

I do not own Skins

As I made my way down the streets of Bristol on a mission to answer all the questions that have been slowly eating my brain away. I reached into my back pulling out a fag and ipod. Shoving the ear buds into my ear to make an attempt at blocking out the sound of the outside world and my inner thoughts. Since I could give a bigger shit at that moment I just pressed the shuffle button, ready to relax at the sounds of my favorite bands.

The Academy Is... - About A Girl, oh god.

One song about a girl

I can't breathe when I'm around her

I'll wait here everyday

In case you scratch the surface

She'll never notice

Emily Emily and more Emily just started pouring into my brain. I know I was pretty fucking lit from how much Jordan let me smoke with him, but this was getting ridiculous.

I'm not in love

This is not my heart

I'm not gonna waste these words

About a girl

My brain was currently breaking down into overdrive when I came face to face with the door to the café. It's now or never Naomi, getting a fucking grip you're never ever like this with anyone, so why now?!

;;

From the first moment I stepped foot inside of the store I impliedly saw her bright red hair in the corner. Fuck, she even makes the back of her head look good. I thought to myself as I slowly made my way over to the absolutely stunning red head.

"Hi Emily," I shyly said to her. Once she noticed I was there she stood up right up and wrapped her arms around my neck, enveloping me in a very lovely hug, one I definitely wasn't complaining about. She smelt like cherries and coconut this time, it smelt fucking amazing, like Emily. She's fucking adorable.

Once we broke away from our ever long lasting hug she blushed slightly and looked up at me, "Hi Naoms." We both took our seat, settling for sitting across from each other. While we where still getting settled in a waitress came over and took our orders of some coffee and glasses of water. I still couldn't break my eyes away from Emily thought, I mean she looked gorgeous.

It had been at least forty minutes of just small talk and giggles when I remembered I did invite her out to talk about the previous night's events. I just wasn't quit sure how I could bring the conversation up. Like, what's a crush to do when they can't even get a hold of her? But I knew I couldn't result in just being a pussy by not mentioning it, so I grew a nice pair of balls and took a deep breath.

"So Emily..I-I was just wondering what you maybe thought about..you know..last night." I started with a casual way of saying something that has such a big answer.

"To be completely honest Naomi, it meant everything to me I mean, not in some creep way you know. Just, no one has ever really treated me like you did last night. I felt special, special to have you all to myself. I like you, i like you a lot but.." she slowly trailed off, which made my heart skip a beat. BUT?! what in the world does she mean by fucking but?!

"But what Emily? I feel the same, I just wanted some closer maybe? It's been eating away at me and driving me up the walls since I woke up this morning to your little note, which by the way was completely adorable you cheeky girl," I replied with a wink sent her way.

Emily started to blush and it was the cutest thing I have ever seen, fuck this girl already has my heart.

"Oy, I was trying to be nice bitch!" She playfully stated making us both erupt in a fit of giggles, "Anyways, I couldn't agree more about the needing closure part. You've been on my mind all day Naomi, but we barely know one another. All I know about you is that well, your name's Naomi and you enjoy having a pint and some spliff.."

Fuck, Emily was right we didn't even know each other. All I knew about her was that her name was Emily, she was in some band, enjoys brew and spliff and her favorite band's Dinosaur Jr. Emily shot me a small smile and took my hands in her over the table. It felt nice, being this close with someone again. Especially when that someone is so stunning like Emily.

"Well yea, you have a point there Ems, but w-we could change that maybe? If it's not what you want tell me now so I get the message sooner than later.." it was my turn to trail off as bad thoughts started entering my mind. What is she was just trying to find a excuse to let me down softly? She squeezed my hands tightly before looking me dead in the eyes.

"Naomi, I would love to do that with you. It's a date then." Emily brought my hand up to her mouth slowly and kissed my knuckles softly. It made my heart flutter, the more simple actions she does yet my stomach is down back flips all over the fuck place.

"Sounds lovely. I'll call you sometime tomorrow to discuss work schedules so we can work something out for both of us?" She nodded and we said our goodbyes. Once we exited to small café and parted way I whipped out my phone dialing Jordan's number as humanly fast as possible to tell him the good news.

Shutting the front door behind me to my flat I kicked my shoes off and placed my bag by the staircase, "Eff? You home?" complete quietness through out the whole flat. It was a bit odd for Effy to be gone all day and especially odd that she hasn't contacted me all day. Even when Effy and I had our arguments she would always text me to tell me if she was going somewhere and when she'd be back.

But then again that was when we where together. Now that we weren't I technically didn't have any business in that department, did I?

I made my way upstairs straight into my room, picking up the already rolled spliff that rested on top of my laptop and lit it. Opening my lap top slowly, I checked my e-mails, social networking sites and just went on my itunes to play some music. I ended up listening to Kiss Me Again by We Are The In Crowd because well, isn't it obvious? I reminded me of fucking Emily!

There was a faint knock on the door to my bedroom before it burst open revealing a dark looking Effy standing in the doorway. "Hi.." she quietly said in such a whisper like tone i'm surprised I somehow picked up what she even said.

I hummed in response as she made her way into my room and sat on the edge of my bed, across from me. Effy closed the laptop screen forcing me to look up and pay all my attention to her.

"I..just wanted to apologize for acting like such a bloody cow earlier on. It's pretty clear i'm still..you know, not over you still. Naomi, you're so beautiful I can't help still loving you. You're the only person who knows how to work me..."

The way Effy was talking about me made tears rush to my eyes. I kept blinking rapidly to avoid them from escaping because if I even showed one hint of something more Eff would get her hopes up, and I couldn't do that to her...again.

"Eff it's ok, it's going to be ok. I'm always going to be here for you," I whispered to her as I broke the distance between us, holding her tightly in my arms. "I understand how you feel, but you're only my best mate Eff. I still love you, but not in that way anymore..i'm sorry." I could feel her nod against my neck and sniffle a bit more.

Once she lifted herself from my neck she began to speak again, "Yeah, I get it Nai. Just please do me a favor and don't bring Emily round when i'm here because I can't bear to see her hold you like I want to.." I completely understood where she was coming from so out of respect for my best mate I agreed with her that I wouldn't bring Emily round with Eff here.

"Now how bout we go watch a film and smoke some spliff?" I said hoping to raise the mood.

"Yeah, i'd like that."

And with that for the rest of the night Eff and I where sat curled up in my bed passing back the spliff and laughing at how corny this stupid scary film was, or maybe it was just because we where high of our arses. Once Effy fell asleep on my shoulder I lowered the volume of the teli so I could be lost in my own thoughts once more before I doze off into a deep sleep.

If Emily was really willing to get to know me and have a slight possibility of getting together this was going to be a tough decision with making both parties happy. Making a mental note in my mind to visit Jordan sometime soon again to get more of his expect advice on this subject. Fucks sake, this was perfect timing for the red headed goddess to just walk right in my life, right?
