One Call Away (Charlie Puth Story)

Part 2

*EMILY*

"Miranda I swear I hate you!!!" I scream as I just got a bucketful of water and ice cubes poured down on me.

Today our college is having this big fest and Miranda with other friends of mine dare to prank me while sooo many people are here.

I should have been aware of any crazy thing this girl would do since it's my birthday today.

"I love you, too, Em!" Miranda, that must be the brain of all this, laughs and drops my bag from the tree up there ; then does the high five with Daniel who must be the one pouring the water since he's holding the bucket.

They all laugh at me and I just pick my bag and start walking away, raising my middle finger.

They keep laughing.

I manage to find the direction towards the bathroom away from the crowds while trying to get rid of the water soaking my hair.

Dang, I'm freezing!!

"Whoa, dipping yourself in the pool again?!"

I look up and to my surprise I see this young man I met a week ago at the pool.

I honestly don't really remember his face; it's his weird eyebrow that makes me sure it's him.

"How the heck can you get here?!" I freak out.

"Maybe it's because we're meant to be?" he replies, smiling nastily. "Don't you dare taking this off again or everyone would get to see..."

He takes off his jacket.

I really, really regret why I didn't notice all this weird signs happening today, especially when my cousin, Elisa, prepared this white shirt for me to wear today; which is really not the kind of thing she used to do. So strange.

Oh, writings on the wall!

Stupid me!

I back off when he tries to put his jacket on me again.

"NO WAY and I don't fucking care, you perv!"

I walk past him.

Then, I stop as I see this one familiar figure standing on my way.

I do really stop.

I mean, it's like every part of me stop working as I see him.

I feel so numb.

I must be dreaming.......I must be dreaming.....

"Hey, Em."

His voice is real.

His eyes. His round eyes that used to shine the brightest in my life.

Kurt....

How the heck can he be here???

I manage to get myself conscious.

"No,"

I shake my head off and turn my direction.

My tears would possibly fall at any second.

I see this weird eyebrow guy still standing there in his place and all I know is that I pull his hand and drag him with me.
