Emily's POVAs soon as I get into the house, I find the house empty much to my relief. I walk towards the stairs, making my way up to my room.Upon getting to my room, I hang my backpack on the bag rack by the door, something I never noticed until yesterday. I walk up to my bed and sit on it as I bend over to remove my boots.After that, I pull off my clothes and rush straight to the bathroom. I turn on the shower and stand underneath it, shaking slightly as the warm water pours down my body, washing away all the dirt and sweat from my body.I also take my time to wash my hair while at it and then when I'm done, I come out with a towel wrapped around my body.Feeling all fresh and clean, I make my way to my bedroom and blow-dry my hair, packing it in a messy bun before putting on my clothes and making my way downstairs to the kitchen. I pull the fridge open to find some leftover Cheesecake with a white paper card taped to it which has 'KYLE'S,DO NOT TOUCH' boldly written on it.A smir
Emily's POVI quickly make myself breakfast and then I go upstairs to shower. Once I'm done showering, I put on my clothes and tie my hair into a bun. I apply a little bit of lip gloss and mascara.Staring at myself in the mirror, I sigh in contempt and grab my backpack. I rush down to the living room to find Tyler seated on the couch with Kyle and upon hearing my footsteps they turn their head in my direction.Tyler's piercing gaze rakes over my body from head to toe, taking in my appearance with an unreadable expression on his face and I shift uncomfortably, adjusting the rope by the side of my crop top.I clear my throat,"Hi guys" I say and Tyler takes his eyes off me, fixing his gaze back to the television."You ready?" Kyle asks as he stands up and I nod, flipping the edge of my pony dramatically. He frowns at this but doesn't say anything as he grabs his keys.He turns to face Tyler,"See you later bro, we're heading out""Yeah, whatever" Tyler says, waving us off,his eyes not le
Emily's POVAfter class, I go straight home with Kyle who drops me off and rushes off to meet with Anna leaving me all alone in the house. I sigh and go upstairs to freshen up and change my clothes before coming downstairs to make myself a sandwich.Once I'm done eating, I go back upstairs to take a nap. The sound of my phone ringing wakes me up and I pick up on the second ring to find my granny's name on the screen."Hey granny," I say, smiling sleepily."Hello sweetie,how are you?" She asks me."I'm fine granny,what about you?" I ask."I'm fine honey. How's college treating you?"She asks with concern."Fairly well" I tell her."Oh that's good, I hope lateef is looking after you properly?" She asks."Yes he is, he's just been busy lately. Dad said he's transferring to CSU" I tell her."Yes he already informed me about it, it's a good school,I'm sure he'll love it there" She tells me."Yeah but it's not easy for him to leave his life here in Washington Square and move back to LA." I
Emily's POV"Oh I'm so sorry" I apologize immediately and I bend down to pick them up knowing it's my fault but the stranger beats me to it and I look up to find a familiar pair of pale blue eyes staring at me with a smile on his face as he hands my books back to me. I know I've seen this face before but I don't know where.Oh yeah, it's the same guy who was staring at me yesterday at the Cafe."T-thank you" I manage to say as I tuck a few loose strands of hair behind my ear, holding my books tightly against my chest with one hand."Are you okay?" He asks with concern and I nod my head in agreement."Okay..." He pauses before adding,"Are you new here?" He asks."Yeah" I nod."Oh okay. I'm Jace by the way" He says smiling with both of his hands folded inside his pocket."Nice to meet you Jace" I return the friendly gesture."Yeah, I... Uhm..." he swallows, fumbling with words."Can we... Uhm... I mean...." He doesn't get to finish whatever he wants to say as I hear my phone beeping in
Emily's POVI find myself looking out the window again a few minutes later watching passersby and vehicles racing down the road this time, "Why's it taking them so long to bring our orders?" Asher complains and my mind is taken back to our table."I'll go check" Logan says and stands up."I'm coming with,that girl at the counter is really hot, I could as well use her number" Asher says joining him. Pfft,what a flirt.By the time the boys get back we're already drowned out in hunger and our food comes late but nonetheless we eat and talk about random stuff. Asher keeps flirting with the girl at the counter, making disgusting gestures her way to which she flushes and winks at him, twirling her head as she pushes up her already exposed cleavage. Ugh.I stare at her from head to toe. She's barely clothed in a very skimpy skirt exposing half of her butt with an extremely short crop top exposing half of her breast leaving little to the imagination.I wonder how people are allowed to dress
Emily's POVI head straight for the parking lot to find Anna and Tiffany already waiting for me in the car."Hey,what took you so long?" Anna asks as soon as I get into the car."It's nothing, I just needed to do something quick" I lie,not wanting to mention anything about Rachel to them. She nods and starts the engine.Anna first of all drops Tiffany off in her dorm before taking me home after which we agree to meet at her place later this evening to prepare for tonight's party.On getting inside, I find the house empty much to my relief and I take my time to make food,shower and take some nap since I have two more hours until I have to go to Anna's.By the time I wake up, it's already 5pm and I quickly dress up in my casuals and pack some outfits for the party and then I pull out my phone to check the text Anna had sent me earlier on which has her house address.Once I'm done packing my stuff and making sure I'm not forgetting anything for the tenth time, I make my way out of the ap
Emily's POV"Aww look who we have here,if it isn't little miss....remind me your name again?" Rachel says mockingly with a smirk playing on her lips.I scowl at her in response, ignoring her completely. "Very well then, I'll just call you Rabbi" She says."And what's that supposed to mean?" I ask, glaring at her."Well for starter's you look like a rabbit,a Christmas bunny to be precise" She laughs and her friend Sam joins her "And who the hell dresses like that to a college party. No one told me it's Christmas already" She continues, laughing along with the rest of the group."Rachel. Be nice" Jace warns her, obviously the only sane person in this group."I'm trying!" She scoffs, flipping her hair backwards dramatically."Easter bunny" I say and everyone stares at me in confusion."Sorry what?" Rachel asks between laughs."You said I look like a Christmas bunny. Sadly your daft brain didn't tell you it's not Christmas bunny but Easter bunny rather" I scoff in irritation.Instead of r
Emily's POVI turn around to see Tyler coming towards us with a few bottles of beer and about a dozen or two of plastic cups in his hand. His gaze meets mine but he doesn't say anything as he walks past us to the group and hands the cups and bottles to Asher who then sets them down on the table. I take my eyes off him for a moment and turn to face Anna and Tiffany"How many more minutes till the party's over?" I ask them and they exchange laughter with each other. I wonder what's funny."Chill girl,stop acting like a nerd and learn to live" Anna says amidst laughter."I'm not a nerd I'm just saying...""Hey, don't worry about anything,the party will be over before you know it, sit back and have fun will you? '' Anna assures me and Tiffany nods in agreement."I don't know...""Come on,stop overthinking it and join us" She says as they pull me to where the rest of the group are, asking me to join them. They are sitting in a row on the couch and I avoid looking at him as Anna introduc
