Why is Love So Blind?

Phase One!

Zach's POV

"Phase one: Get Em to be friends with you. Go talk to her, and report back when you're finished! Do you understand?" CeCe yelled happily as I nodded and made my way towards Em.

"Hey Babe! Can we talk? About us? I know you want to get back together, so just let me know when you're ready. I'll be here!" Stella said suddenly grabbing my arm.

"Uh... Stella. I don't like you anymore, remember? I need to go." I said as I pushed her off me as I tried to get to Em.

"Stell! Hey! I need to talk to you about cheer! Come on!" Al said as she pulled Stella away from me so we could get straight to "Phase One."

"Thanks Al. You're a lifesaver." I whispered as the girls walked away.

"So, what you're telling me is that you want to hang out and be friends so you can help me remember you?" Said a very confused Em.

Dang she was hot when she confused. Snap out of it Zander! Girls don't like it when you call them hot. Only some do, but most prefer to be called, pretty or beautiful. Gosh. I really needed to stop reading those, "How to Get a Girl," books.

"Hello? Earth to Zander!" Em said shaking her arms violently I front of me.

"Sorry. I was just... Uh... Thinking. So what were you saying?" I asked.

"You want to help me get my memory back so you want us to hang out and be friends, right?" Em said.

"Oh ya! I can't wait to get started!" I exclaimed.

"Uh... Sure. Why don't we just start now?" Em asked, once again, very confused.

She was just so hot, sorry. I mean pretty. "I actually have to show you something after school that I'm pretty sure can help you remember stuff... About us." I said as I smiled trying to not make it awkward.

"Okay? So should we go home together after school or-" said Em.

"Just meet me at the treehouse in your backyard 30 minutes after you get home!" I yelled as I jogged away. This was one amazing plan. I can't believe the girls actually thought of this. It would definitely bring Em back to me.

"Wow! This place looks amazing! I've never seen it so good before!" Em said as she stepped into the treehouse.

"It's actually looked this good before. You did this for me once. I was sad, and you-"

"I kept all the pictures of us in one box, and-"

"I was mad, because-"

"I wouldn't talk to you about something." Em said putting some of the pieces back together.

"Exactly." I said smiling.

"Can I ask you a question?" Asked Em.

"Sure. Anything." I said softly.

"How long. How long we're we best friends? With CeCe." She asked.

"Ever since I could remember. We would all have so much fun together. I remember that we would always play hide and seek, but then-"

"CeCe would ditch us." Em said laughing softly.

"Hahaha. Ya. Those were the days." I said smiling.

"I'm sorry Zander. For not remembering. You must've been pretty important to me." She said smiling back at me.

"It's not your fault Em. If anyone, it's my fault. I should've been watching you more carefully instead of being frustrated with myself." I said angrily as I hit my fist against the side of the treehouse causing one of the pictures to fall down.
