Chapter 2

-Emma: (Writes) "Ryan...is the same. He always nags about forgetting stuff all the time, and is always doing everything for me. He still puts post-its

onto my stuff he'll know I will forget. But the only thing difference I noticed from his is that I never see him anymore. He no longer hops from his window

to my window in the morning and helps me get ready. It almost seems like he's ignoring me, but I know he wouldn't do that. That's it for now."

-Emma: "I should get dressed, but I'm going to eat breakfast first."

*Walks into kitchen*

-Ethan: "Hey Emma, feeling okay?"

-Emma: "*Offguard thinking*"

-Ethan: "Emma!"

-Emma: "Huh, yeah?"

-Ethan: "Well that answered my question, how's it going with Ryan?"

-Emma: "Oh, everything is back to normal."

-Ethan: "And you're okay with that?"

-Emma: "...I don't know, it just feels unusual."

-Ethan: "Oh Emma, let me ask you this: Do you like Ryan?"

-Emma: (Thinks): "W-Why so direct?"

"I-I don't know..."

-Ethan: "Well, figure it out. Ta-ta."

-Emma: (Thinks): "Figure it out...?"

*Changes into uniform*

-Emma: "Bye Ethan! I'm off!"

-Ethan: "C'ya."

...

"She's so clueless."

*Emma walking to school*

-Emma: *Texts Ryan* "Hey, could you come over to my place today?"

-Ryan: *Texts Emma* "...Don't I always?"

-Emma: *Texts Ryan* "Well, I don't really run into you anymore. It's like you're ignoring me..."

-Ryan: *Texts Emma* "Wha-What!? No! I'm just really busy."

-Emma: *Texts Ryan* "Okay, I have to go school. Talk to you later."

-Ryan: *Texts Emma* "Bye- *Thinks to himself:* "should I s-send a heart? No, that's way too much. Keep yourself together Ryan. She said she wanted things

back to normal remember?" *Sends*"

-Emma: "It seems like he's gotten over it."

...

"But why do I think of that as a bad thing..?"

*Bumps into Jazz*

-Jazz: "Hey! Watch where yo-"

"Oh hey Emma!"

-Emma: "Hi Jazz."

-Jazz: "You seem sad, is there something wrong?"

-Emma: "No, it's fine."

-Jazz: "*-.-*"

-Emma: "I-It's just something personal."

-Jazz: "Oh okay. I got to hurry to class, I'll see you there. Bye!"

-Emma: "Bye!"

*Arrives to class*

-Mr. Whisin: "Calculus (from Latin calculus, literally 'small pebble-

*Thump* *Emma falls asleep*

*Bell rings*

-Jazz: "C'mon Emma, want to hang out at a cafe or something?"

-Emma: "I'm sorry I can't. Ryan is coming to my apartment today."

-Jazz: "Doesn't he always? He treats you like you're his daughter. I surprised he isn't your boyfriend *giggles* teehee."

-Emma *blushes*: "Wh-Wha?"

-Jazz: "Okay, have fun with Ryan *giggles*. I'm heading home now. Bye!"

*Arrives home*

*Sees Ryan waiting at the door*

-Ryan: "H-Hey Emma. *blushes*"

-Emma: "H-Hi. *blushes*"

...

-Ryan (Thinks): "D mm!t, why does it have to be so awkward?"

...

-Emma: "I'll just open the door now."

-Ryan: "Yeah."

*Walks into living room*

-Ryan: "Maybe staying at your place wasn't a good idea."

-Emma: "U-Um.."

-Ryan: "NO! I didn't mean that! It's just I've been here a lot of times, and it's getting boring."

-Emma: "Oh okay, you can go home."

-Ryan: "Wh-Wha? I still want to spend time with you *blushes*"

-Emma: "*blushes* Oh-Okay."

-Ryan: "So, do you want to go to the movies?"

-Emma: "Sure! What movie are we watching?"

-Ryan: "We'll choose when we're there."

-Emma: "Okay!"

-Ryan: "I'll head back to my place and get changed."

-Emma: "Alright."

*Ethans POA*

-Ethan *spying:* "Ooo, they're going on a date?"

-Ryan: "WH-WHA?"

-Ethan: *mutters:* "I wish"

-Ethan: *Flinch:* "O-Oh, I um...didn't know you were here *giggles awkwardly*!"

-Ryan: "I-It's nothing like that, it's just an outing.

-Ethan: "Hahaha, whatever, good luck on your date!"

-Ryan: *-.-*

*Ryan arrives home to change* *Ryans POA*

-Ryan: "Hm, what should I wear?"

"I have to dress formal since its a da-"

"NO! NO! It's nothing like that. It's just an outing! *blushes*"

"I'll just wear something casual"

*Ethan's POA*

-Ethan *Staring through the window to spy on Ryan*

"Wow, he may know a lot about survival and basic real world problems.."

"But he's a kindergartener when it comes to love. *giggles*"

"I should stop spying on them but...I can't resist!"

*Ryans POA*

-Ryan: "Okay, so...a plain gray jacket should do and...dark blue jeans."

"There! That wasn't so hard."

*Runs back to Emma's apartment*

-Ryan: "Let's go!"

-Emma: "Yeah! Let's go!"
