At break that very same day, Emma told Olivia about Ben asking her to the ball.
"What!" Olivia gasped, feeling her perfect plan crumble. She was supposed to say no, or at least get asked by Tancred first.
Emma was taken aback by her friend's surprise. "I'm going to the ball with Ben," She repeated.
Olivia sat on the ground and shook her head for a moment, then quickly recovered and stood, ignoring the bewildered looks she was receiving from the passing students. "Uh oh," She gasped and looked over Emma's shoulder.
"What is it?" Emma turned and her mouth fell open. She quickly fled into the school so she could cry in the bathroom.
"That littleā¦" Olivia muttered under her breath and shook her head at the sight. Tancred had his arm around some other girls shoulder. She was pretty, small, blond, and it art, and reminded Olivia of Emma. He was doing this to make the bird girl jealous, Olivia could tell by the way he was looking at her, then searching through the crowds, no doubt trying to find Emma.
Too bad Emma had found him first. She had locked herself in a bathroom stall for over and hour and cried.
"Tancred," Lysander approached his friend as they were coming inside from break.
Tancred looked at his friends face, then turned to the girl, "Jamie, I have to go, I'll see you at dinner,"
"Okay, bye, Tancred." Jamie walked away.
The two friends stared at each other for a moment, then Lysander said, "What is wrong with you?"
"What do you mean?"
"Why are you dating Jamie? I thought you liked Emma." Lysander was angry for two reasons. The first was that he thought his friend was going insane. The second was that Olivia was giving him and the ancestors' massive headaches because she was so pissed that there was no way her plan would work now that both of them had someone else.
"I do like her, and I like her a lot, but she's dating that Ben guy." Tancred said.
Lysander shook his head. "Emma wanted me to tell you something, but I don't think you deserve to know," He turned to go to his next class, but Tancred stopped him.
"What is it?"
"She wanted you to know that the ball isn't that big of a deal."
"What's that supposed to mean?" Tancred wondered.
"It means that Ben means nothing to her. He just asked her and she politely said yes. Unlike you. You went out and got yourself a girlfriend. You're unbelievable, Tancred. I used to think you were the nicest, kind hearted person I knew, but I guess I was wrong." With this, Lysander walked away, leaving Tancred alone.
The storm boy stood there dumbfounded, until he realized something.
He had hurt Emma's feelings and had to find her.
He searched the school high and low, but came up with nothing. The last place to look was the girl's bathroom.
There was no way he was going to go in there, so he stood outside the door and waited. He could swear that he could hear crying from inside the room, which made him feel bad. "Emma," He whispered under his breath. He had caused so much trouble already; he didn't know what to say to her once she left the bathroom. "Emma, I'm sorry."
He turned to leave, but the bathroom door opened. Tancred knew it was Emma. Before he turned around to talk to her, he took a deep breath.
"Tancred, is that you?" Emma wondered after a few minutes of both of them just standing where they were.
"Yes," Tancred said, "I have to talk to you."
if you want to know how the talk will go, you'll need to review! remember, at least two. I have a four day weekend coming up, and I want something to do while I'm on the computer all day. I have the next few chapters set up in my head, and they're all full of TancredxEmma, of coarse!PLEASE REVIEW!!!!!
