Why is Love So Blind?

Who Are You?

Well... Sorry for taking so long.... Writer's block... I hate it!

Thanks for being so patient with me! Enjoy! :)

Mystery Dude’s POV:

Why did I have to kidnap Zander and Everett?! If Ember finds out who I am, then I’ll never get another girlfriend, I won’t have anymore friends, I could go to prison, and worst of all, Ember would hate me forever!

I wish I could just rewind time and never sign that contract. It’s like Rumpelstiltskin all over again! Expect, this is real. Real life. Something bad always has to happen to me. I should’ve left while I could. I could’ve had a family. A Happy life. Maybe I could’ve even got Em to like me for real. I guess I’ll just have to try and see if there is any other way to make Ember like me again.... even though she doesn’t know who I am.  

Everett’s POV:

What the heck? This has been a very interesting day! Why am I suddenly caring for Zander? Some might say that our little “rivalry” is over, but don’t worry, it’s not! We are still basically competing for Ember’s heart. That sounds really bad. Let me rephrase that. We are trying to make Ember fall in love with us. Did we actually talk about this?  As unmanly as it seems, we had a lot of spare time in that strange cabin. So, yes. We did talk about this. We’re still friends, but we’re in a war. For a girl! That sounds pretty good! Anyway, Zander and I heard Ember’s voice, so we tried to get up to see if she was actually there. Since we hadn’t stood up in a while, we... uh.... couldn’t get up. We just gave up after that and started yelling. That didn’t work out very well either, and now, Em is with some masked guy trying to save Zander and I from this stupid fire.... Why is my life so different from everyone else’s?

“Just let me kick open the dang door!” Said Em.

“You’re a girl... You’re not as strong as me! I’ll find a way to open it!” Said the Mysterious dude.

“Whatever! I took karate for a super long time! Don’t underestimate me mister!” Em said as I imagined her putting her hands on her hips.

“Suuure you did! Oh ya, and I’m a hot cheerleader that everyone loves!” The Mysterious dude said in a girly laugh making Zander chuckle beside me.

“Just let me kick the door open! There is a fire going on, and you’re trying to be manly? Just, no. Stop.” Ember said laughing mockingly.

“Dude! Let her kick the dang door already! We’re are going to die if you guys keep fighting!” Zander’s raspy voice said.

“Oh, right! Ladies first!” The mysterious dude said.

“I was already going to kick the door anyway. Stand back!” Ember yelled.

“We can’t even move Em. Just kick open the door...” I said as I barely even recognized my voice.

“Oh ya.. Haha” Em said as she kicked open the door as I sensed her presence even though I couldn’t see her beautiful face through my blindfold. “Zander! Everett!” I heard Ember yell as she ran over and untied my blindfold and the ropes on my wrists. “Oh my gosh guys... You guys scared me so bad...” She said as she pulled Zander and I into a warm, welcoming hug.

“I’m so sorry Em. I knew how much Zander meant to you so I had to help you.” I said quietly.

“I’m sorry too Em. I knew that you and Everett were never dating.” Zander said smirking at me.

“Wow. I’ve been here for a couple seconds and you guys are already having a little rivalry.” She said laughing quietly.

“How did you know we had a... er... rivalry.” I asked.
