Here is the fifh chapter , hope you enjoy! :p It is quit short but I wanted to have a little tension, in the next chapter will be revealed what Spencer is! Any guesses of what she might be? Let me know what you think about it, should I add more, what should change, what is good,… Love, WolfWillow!
Ps: I'm going to try to add more of the supernatural stuff , but this is just the beginning where you need to get to know the characters so it's hard to add more now. But that's not going to stop me from trying to!
''I'm Emily, welcome to the neighbourhood. '' Emily smiled back and handed her the gift basket. Maya looked like a nice girl but it felt weird that she would be living in Allison's house. ''Thank you!'' she looked surprised.
''Hmm, Foie gras,..my favourite. ''
''It's from my mother.'' Emily explained. She could see the questionable look on the new girl's face. ''Yeah, I figured. '' She looked at the medaille in Emily's hands.
''Oh, that stuff was in my room. You can have anything if you want. '' Maya definitely didn't know who had lived in her old house and what had happened with them.
''It all belonged to Allison.''
''Is she a friend of yours?''
''She was, a long time ago.''
''That's all I get, no details?'' Maya insisted. Emily looked away. She had expected this but she had hoped that she wouldn't ask. It was hard to talk about, even after a year. Emily decided to keep it short and to the point.
''There were five of us, we used to hang out but we don't anymore.'' All the time she had kept her smile on her face, even though the main thing she wanted to do was: run back home and cry over her best friend that had gone missing. Thank god, the girl left it with that and changed topic.
''Would it be outrageous uncivilly if I asked you'll help with the last two boxes?''
''Yes.'' She answered honestly. Maya's face went blank and thought she had actually hurt Emily's feelings. ''But I don't mind.'' She added after a few seconds. Together they laughed and actually had a good time, carrying the last things upstairs. Until Maya started asking questions again.
''So, why aren't you still friends with the girl who used to live here?'' Emily didn't even mind it anymore, she really liked Maya and nothing could take away the good mood she had now. She didn't know why, but with Maya she couldn't help but feel good and herself.
''You ask a lot of questions.''
'' How else am I supposed to get to know you?'' she defended herself. Emily rolled her eyes and put down another box.
''There you go, another question.'' Maya smiled in a cute way.
''Your turn, ask me anything.'' Emily thought about it and looked around in the room.
''Is this your boyfriend?'' she said, taking a picture from her closet. It showed a handsome guy with big hair full of curls. Almost like hers.
''His name is Justin.'' Maya sighed.
''He's cute.'' Right before she wanted to ask how they were going to pull it off, Maya already answered her question and Emily put the picture back.
''And he is also a three thousand miles away. '' She hid her face behind the clothes she was folding. But Emily didn't need to see her face, she could hear on her voice that she missed him.
''My boyfriend's name is Ben.''
''What's he like?''
''He is a swimmer, like me. '' He wasn't exactly a swimmer like she was, not many people where. He was just a guy in the same swimming club as her. Because she liked the water so much, she only dated people who swam, it was the only free time she had to spent with a guy.
''I bet you're good, you totally have the body.'' She complimented. Emily was used to people saying that she was pretty but she still got shy and didn't know what to say back so she just stared out of the window.
''My mom's a cellist, we're building a studio.''
'' Do you play?''
''Yeah, but not the cello. If you're a big jock, does that mean that you would kill me if I smoked a little weed? ''
''Now?'' Emily answered, shocked. In the middle of the day? What if she got caught? Emily would be guilty too. She never did something that wasn't allowed.
''Only if you don't want me too.''
''Where are your parents?'' Maya immediately noticed the tension in her.
''Relax, they're out.'' She comforted her. Emily still didn't feel very good about it but Maya's certainty made her feel a little better.
''Go ahead.'' She took a few things from under her bed, none of the objects were known to Emily. ''Want to join me?'' This surprised her even more. Who was this girl? She had never ever met someone like her, everyone in Rosewood was so well-behaved. And she hated it. Always needing to act like a good girl, needing to be someone she sometimes didn't want to be. ''Okay.'' Emily sat down on the bed, unsure of what came next. ''First time?'' ''No!'' Maya gave her a well knowing look until she gave in. ''Yes.'' Emily admitted. It wasn't good for her swimming but she didn't knew which effects it exactly would have.
