After Emma, Y/n and Norman gathered table cloth to use as their ropes, they stuffed it in a bag and went outside.

"Okay! Y/n, put the bag in the tree." Norman asked, politely. Y/n shook her head rapidly.

"Nope. I don't do climbing." She said, nervously eyeing the height of the tree.

"Why? Can poor Y/n not climb a little tree?" Norman said with a mocking tone. The girl only scoffed and rolled her eyes.

"Asshole." She said, grabbing the attention of the orange haired girl. She crossed her arms and sighed.

"Y/n, don't call Norman that. As for you Norman, don't be mean to Y/n." Emma glared at the them.

"Y- yes ma'am!" The two answered in unison, saluting. Emma smiled.

"Here. I'll do it!" She stepped to Y/n and took the bag of cloth out of her hands.

Emma climbed up the tree, making it seem so easy. She carefully put the bag into the hole in the tree. Y/n stared at Emma in awe. Norman noticed this and chuckled.

"You're such a simp, it hurts." He said, trying his best to hold in a laugh. Y/n snapped out of her trance and blushed.

"Oh you little b-" She was about to tackle the albino, but was interrupted by a thud. They looked back.

"All done!" Emma said, brushing her hands together with a bright smile. The two smiled back, hands behind their backs, acting as if nothing had happened.

"Great. We can go now." Y/n swiftly turned around and walked away, not waiting for the other two.

She stared down at her feet, walking slowly. She smiled to herself.

'gosh, i am a simp. emma's just so perfect. and cute. and-' Her thoughts were interrupted by, none other than, Ray.

"Yo." The boy said, holding his book by his side. Y/n jumped back, startled.

"Ahh! What the heck, Ray? You do that all the time!" She said, calming down from the fright. Ray chuckled.

"I guess it's my specialty." He said, smirking. She looked at him curiously.

"Do you need anything? Or did you come over just to scare me?" She asked, suspiciously.

She didn't know why, but it felt like he knew something she didn't.

"I overheard you and Norman talking over there. He called you a simp?" He questioned. Y/n groaned.

"Snowflake over there is just being an annoying brat. Also why were you eavesdropping on us?" She asked, her suspicions growing. Ray shrugged and sighed.

"I got bored. So.. Emma, huh?" He nudged the girl slightly. Y/n inhaled sharply.

"What? I have no idea what you're talking about, Shithead." She retorted.

He knew she was lying, but was more offended by the name she had called him.

"So, Norman gets Snowflake and I get Shithead?" He threw his hand onto his chest, gasping. Y/n smirked.

"I could call you, Emo Bitch, if you want." She offered. Ray nodded his head in defeat.

"Shithead it is." He laughed as she smiled victoriously. Then, then heard two familiar voices speaking.

"Hey, Norman! Do you think it's about time we tell Ray?" Emma spoke. Y/n turned to Ray, who raised an eyebrow.

"I was thinking that I would speak to him myself. Maybe later." Norman replied.
