"Julia tell me a way to steal a boyfriend." Emma asked. Julia stared at her in a way that kinda freaked Emma out.
"Being the boyfriend stealer aren't we Emma?" She smirked. Emma nodded.
"Yes. We only live once so why not?" She joked. Julia shook her head and sighed.
"How to steal a boyfriend...well you have to be nice to him. Extremely nice, not so suspiciously nice though or else he'll suspect something is up with you..."
James is quite smart so he would guess that I'm planning something if I'm too nice.
"Try to be super...you know flirty. You want him so flirt-"
"Are you serious? But isn't the whole point of this for him not to figure out that I like him? He would suspect if I flirt with him."
Julia sighed closing her eyes.
"Do you want my help or not?"
Emma nodded. She needed advice soon. Who knows when James might actually get Vanessa pregnant or get married to her or something.....
Okay maybe she was exaggerating but it could be possible.
"Just flirt with him. Get super close to him, listen like if you care about his problems-"
"How could I not care about him? He's going to be my future husband!" Emma argued. Julia gave her a look.
"I'm just saying become like his best friend or something. Best friends being a guy and a girl often become a couple since they know each other better."
That was quite true. If I want to be close to James I would have to become his closest person in the world.
I'm doing this for you James.
Emma looked up confident.
"Okay I'll do this."
Julia nodded. She didn't even know if Emma had been listening but she knew her. She knew Emma would do anything to get the guy she wanted.
"Em, who's the lucky man?" Julia smiled. She had given her the advice so Emma should tell her.
Emma just smiled shaking her head.
"You're not getting that from me! You'll see though. He'll fall for it. I freaking love him and so he better freaking love me back."
Julia raised her hands up not wanting any other explanation. If Emma wasn't going to tell her who the guy was then she might as well not even talk.

"Vanessa we just wanted to say that we're sorry for causing you so much pain." Brooklyn started. Kennedy nodded.
Oh so now that there's a picture of me on the Internet they are suddenly nice.
"Look I've taken your freaking insults, your disrespect towards me and I'm just done with it. I'm done with both of you. You both treated me like crap. You organized that party so that you would make fun of me in public-"
"That is not true!" Kennedy lied. Vanessa didn't even stop to consider it. She knew these girls and knew they were lying. They may lie but not to her anymore. She was done with it.
"Please! Everyone you talked to you both pointed at me and laughed. Don't think I didn't see because trust me, I did. You just wanted to throw that party because you knew the Real Madrid squad was going to be there! You were going to use me so that you could get your picture in the magazine?"
Brooklyn and Kennedy stayed quiet giving each other a look.
"Was that your point in sending James outside? So that we would immediately become a couple and get pictures taken and when I became famous or whatever you would come back and become my best friends and I would introduce you to the famous world? Is that what you wanted?"
They kept quiet. Vanessa sighed softly. She knew that they had been planning it. If they weren't talking then it must be that it was true. Liars. Fake people. Backstabbers.
"Well then since you're both not saying anything I'm guessing you're both saying that it was true. Fake friends. Get out of my house. I don't speak to fake people." Vanessa opened the front door motioning for them to step out. Out of her life forever. Brooklyn went out first giving Vanessa a dirty look as she left. Kennedy kept her head down as she left. Once Vanessa closed the door she sunk down on the floor crying and hugging her knees. The world thought she was unbreakable. Everything still hurt ever since the death of Jacob. Ever since nothing has been perfect.
That was until James appeared.

Emma smirked as she saw James playing video games with Ethan.
"This is how you play." Ethan clicked a button as James frowned.
"Dude you just killed yourself."
Ethan let out a girl scream.
"Not my character!"
"Ha ha I'm the winner. James Jr is the winner!"
Aw I'll give you your James Jr whenever you want..... Emma snapped out of her thought and focused on her task.
"You're a newbie at this how is it that you're winning?"
James shrugged picking up the controller again. Ethan squinted at the screen.
"I'll beat you James. This was just beginner's luck."
"I don't think so."
Emma sighed looking at James' cuteness. Like I said you'll forever be mine. Once you fall for me you'll never want Vanessa again.
"Hi guys." Emma said cheerfully. Ethan waved her off. James looked up and stared.
"Ha! James your character was killed!"
James snapped back at the screen.
"What? How? You killed me." He groaned into a pillow.
I could make you groan louder....
"See Emma? You made him lose! You're such a bully!" Ethan yelled making Emma lose her dirty thoughts.
James looked up again and smiled shaking his head.
"You didn't make me lose don't worry."
Emma smiled pulling her dress lower on her knees.
Maybe that's what distracted him from the screen. My dress was too short! Ha! This will be easier than I thought!
His eyes are a beautiful brown color. His hair is a dark brown color too. We'll have beautiful children one day.
Emma snapped back when James waved a hand in front of her.
"What is she staring at now?" Ethan smirked.
"I don't know she's been acting weird."
"Oh trust me," Ethan laid a hand on James' shoulder. "She's forever been weird."
James shook his head studying her.
"She looks normal. She just may not show her beautiful side much."
Aw I love him so freaking much! Marry me James. Don't waste your time on Vanessa. Marry who actually loves you! Me!
Ethan stood up to get a snack leaving James alone with Emma.
"So...." She started awkwardly. He bit his lip as she sat down next to him.
"So...." He saw that Emma's dress had risen higher up her legs.
She was sitting a little too close to him. She smiled making eye contact with him. She got even closer to him an inch at a time. He moved further away.
"Aw James don't be scared. I'm just trying-"
"To freak me out. You're doing good so far." He stood up to leave but Emma jumped up grabbing his arm and turning around blocking the doorway.
"God no!" She slammed the door, her elbow hitting the loose lock button.
"You just hit the lock." James warned pointing. Emma looked down. LOCKED. The little signal on the tiny window read. She was about to push it to unlock but then she decided let's see what he does. He flopped on the bed again.
"So you won't open the door?" He asked standing up again.
"No."
"Fine then." He struggled to reach over and open the door. They both struggled until they ended up with her being pinned up on the wall by him.
"Uh..." He stopped. Emma knew this would be the only chance she had. She hugged James for a random reason, inhaling his scent. Cologne?
"What are you doing?" He asked. She stayed quiet smiling at her next move. She pulled away as he did the same before cupping his face with her hands and crashing her lips onto his.
Forget that advice Julia gave me! Forget the being friends with him. He was easy to get kissed by. Damn James' kisses....
She pressed the lock button unlocking it as someone opened the door and let out a small gasp.
That person was no one other than Vanessa.
