"Ah, Emily! Come in." I smiled.
She walked in and sat down on my sofa. She looked nervous, and uncomfortable. I slouched on the armchair and smiled.
"What's up, cutie?"
"erm... well, the th-thing is, I-I don't really get chemistr-try like you do, and I was wondering – I mean if it's-it's possible, erm, could you like, erm, could you- could you help me?"
She seemed really embarrassed about having to ask this, and her hand wavered over her mouth anxiously.
"Hey, I'm not going to bite! Relax," I smiled. "Of course I'll help! I could tutor you if you want."
Inside I was really glad I was able to show off to her and help her. I was her hero. She relaxed her shoulders and I sat next to her and helped her with her homework. I breathed in her sweet perfume.
"Hey honey, I'm going to wal- Oh, who's this? I thought you were with Tina!" My mom walked in.
"Me and Tina broke up. And Emily's here because I'm tutoring her. She's just a friend."
She smiled at Emily. "Aww he's such a gentleman, isn't he." I rolled my eyes. "Anyway, I'm off to Wal-Mart. Do you need anything?"
I shook my head and turned back to Emily.
A few weeks later, I was tutoring Emily at mine when she tripped and fell on me. Our lips met. So I did the obvious thing. I kissed her. And she kissed me back.
Then she pulled away and blushed. She stood up, embarrassed. "I gotta go. Thank you for everything. I think I've got it now." she hurried out of the door.
"Emily, wait!" I yelled, running after her. I followed her through the streets of Roseville, until I crossed the river bridge.
Dillon walked towards me. "Hey dirtbag! Get back on your side of the river."
"But-" I looked around. Emily was nowhere to be seen.
I snarled and crossed back over.
"That's what I thought!" he taunted. I whirled round. No, Zach. I told myself. He's not worth it.
I walked home, thinking about the gorgeous cutie. But she lived in the Gallagher catchment area. I sighed
The next morning in French, I got bored. Well who doesn't? So I found myself doodling.
Liz nudged me. She was the only Gallagher that I got on with. "Why have you drawn Cammie?"
I looked at my piece of paper. My subconscious had drawn Emily surrounded by doodles of Zach x Emily and stuff like that. I was turning into a girl!
"No, it's Emily" I smiled. Then Deedee walked past. She had a frantic whispered conversation with Tina.
"I don't think you and Tina will be getting back together anytime soon." Liz whispered. I glanced up, expecting Tina to be glowering at me but she smiled, evilly. She was up to something.
I wandered through the hallways, when up ahead, I saw a furious Cammie, glaring at...
I couldn't believe my eyes. I was just as furious as Cam.
Grant was kissing Bex.
Ooh! What's Tina up to? has she found out about 'Emily'? who knows? oh yeah, I do. Bwahahahahahahahahaha!
