Chapter 3! Carry on reading, Emma might try to kill herself in this one! whoops! I gave it away! sorry! :)

Tancred and Emma both had detention that weekend. Emma because she missed homework and Tancred because he accidentally caused a tornado in history. They both watched as their friends left the school and ran onto the buses, eager to go home.

When the hall was empty, Tancred noticed Emma and called out, "Hey, Em! D'you want to hang around?" Emma noticing she alone with the boy who broke her heart, ran up the stairs, trying to get away from him.

Tancred frowned. What had he done to upset her? She had been giving him the cold shoulder recently. He just didn't understand why. Unless... It dawned on him. Emma had been the one who saw Tasty kissing him. He smacked his forehead and followed her up the stairs cursing how stupid he'd been.

Emma ran away from Tancred and thought about where she should go. She felt like going to find Billy but he was no where to be seen. Suddenly the image of Tancred and Tasty came up in her head and she slid down a wall and started crying.

She loved the way his cape always billowed around him. She loved his spiky, blond hair. She loved his blue-grey eyes. She loved his laid-back, don't care manner. She loved everything about him, except his girlfriend.

Suddenly she heard some footsteps. She looked up with her tear stained face, her fringe falling into her eye and saw Dr Bloor approaching her. "Ah. Miss Tolly. I have some news for you."

"Yes?"

"Your aunt, Miss Julia Ingledew died in a car crash yesterday with Paton Yewbeam." he told her in a harsh voice.

"WHAT?" screamed Emma. She felt disbelief, mourn, depression, worry. She felt dead.

"I already told you." sighed an exasperated Dr Bloor. "Your. Aunt. Is. Dead. You can have another detention for next week for shouting at the headmaster." He turned and started walking away. "Oh and her funeral is on next Saturday so I guess you can't attend seeing as you have detention. You're going to live here at Bloors too because you've got no home to go to." He smiled nastily and carried on waling away.

Emma started crying even more. Tears flowed down her cheeks even more and faster now. Her aunt was dead. She couldn't attend the funeral. She had no home. She was going to live with the Bloors. With the tears still falling she got up and fled to the music tower.

Tancred took in a sharp intake of breath. He had seen and heard the whole drama between Dr Bloor and Emma while hiding behind a wall. He watched her as she ran towards the music tower. Why would she go there? The place was crumbling and a whole wall had fallen in. Tancred felt uneasy. His instincts told him that something was wrong. He got up and stalked her.

Emma stopped running when she reached the tower steps. Slowly she ascended one step at time taking a long time. She knew what she had to do. Her eyes still leaked and when she finally got to the top. Her eyes scanned the room.

Cobwebs hung down from the wall as though they were decorations. A whole wall had fallen in so you could easily fall off the tower. The floorboards creaked and quite a lot of them were missing.

Carefully she walked over to the part of the tower where the wall had caved in. She lifted one foot off the tower so it was suspended in mid air and was about to lift the the other when - "Emma! NO!" Tancred ran into the room, grabbed her wrist and yanked her back into the tower. He didn't let go of her wrist and pulled her further away from the drop. "Are you MAD?"he bellowed at her. "Why were you just about to jump of the tower?! That's SUICIDE!"

"Let me go! Let me die! I don't care! I don't care anymore! I hate my life! I WANT TO DIE!" she screamed at him, attempting to take her wrist out of his grip. He held onto it tighter. "Why?"he asked her softly. "Why do you want to die?"

"I have no more family! I have no where to call home!" she yelled, stepping closing to him. He didn't step back. " And YOU, the boy of my dreams, are completely oblivious to the fact that I've been crushing on you from the age of 11!Its been 3 years since I was 11 and you still haven't asked me out! 3 years I waited for you, Tancred, 3 years! But I can't wait anymore! I WON'T wait anymore. I just want to DIE! Just let me-" Tancred couldn't believe what he did then. He took a step forward closing the gap between them, drew her closer and kissed her full on the lips. Emma was taken by surprise when he did this but soon closed her eyes and leaned into the kiss. Emma wished the moment would last forever but everything come to an end soon.
