As I sit staring at my Spanish exam that I finished way to early, I begin to think about him, I hadn't let myself think about Rhys in a long time,he had been such a major part of my life and its hard to believe that just a couple months ago I broke his heart along with my own, I should probably rewind and tell you about this major part of my life,It began 3 years ago.
24th November 2012.
I laughed as Mia pranced around her bedroom getting ready to go out. We had grown up together but lived an hour away from each other and went to different schools so on the occasion we got together we were inseparable. Many people would think we were sister with how similar we looked. Mia like myself was average height with dirty blonde hair,same skin colour, pale but not ghostly and we were both fifteen. The differences were minimal, Mia has a gorgeous figure, not too skinny and not too plump, she was big in all the right place and small in the rest, myself I was more curvy and toned from being a dancer and playing a lot of sport. We enjoyed the same things, music,sport, partying and even had the same dress sense, we had both picked out tight dresses for this night out, we were heading out to Taffy's a local nightclub in her town, i hadn't been there before as it wasn't in my area.
We hadn't seen each other in about two months at this stage and had a lot to catch up on, we told each other about the new guys in our lives, Mia was currently with Sean on and off, she really likes him and wasn't interested in anyone else, I had just met Danny a few weeks or so ago, he's sweet,kind and a bit shy.
"I don't know Mia, he's lovely and I like him I guess but i don't see anything becoming of us, he's just incredibly shy" I said as Mia gave me a little frown, I noticed the look in her eye as she opened her mouth to say the 6 words I hating hearing; "Your still not over him Emma" They were out before I could clamp my ears shut with my hands but I still did, refusing to her her talk to me about him but I could hear everything as she peeled my hand from the sides of my head.
"Emma, you cant let him take over your life like this, at some stage you need to stop hiding the fact that he has hurt you, no matter how much you deny it, I can still see you care about him, you cant let Sean destroy you anymore" I nodded agreeing with Mia as we made out way into the taxi and heading to the nightclub, by the time we got there ten minutes later I had pushed Sean to the back of my mind and had decided I would give Danny a proper chance.The club was packed with people I don't know but Mia quickly guided me over to a booth which held her friends, she introduced me to everyone, Megan, a tall leggy blonde, Leah and petite red-head, Katy a curvy brunette, Sean a tall muscular guy with piercing blue eyes I immediately knew him to be Mia's Sean with the way he eyed her, beside him were a couple of his friend Mia introduced as Robert, Adam, Jake and Rhys. Rhys is slightly tanned, with brown curly-ish hair with fades at the side, he's attractive, I don't believe in love at first sight but when our eyes met as he welcomed me I got that same feeling when your listening to a song and it seems as if the singer is singing about your life, he looked at me as if he knew me better then anyone else, he could see through my cold hard exterior, he gave me goosebumps, I can feel them tickling me arms and legs and shivers running up and down my spine. I sat down in between Mia and Katy, I like Katy, she different,quirky and didn't give a shit what people thought of her. I think I could get along with these people, we seem to have the same sense of humour and I liked their carefree attitudes. I slowly sipped on my smirn-off ice, giggling to myself I took another look at my cousins ID she had lent me to I could get into this nightclub, really we looked nothing alike but I still had no problem in getting through security. I felt Mia leave to go with Sean to make out I assume, I see the way they look at each other. I notice Rhys looking at me again, not even the slightest but embarrassed that this is the fourth time I've caught him staring I wonder wha--" Jeez Rhys would ya just grow a pair and ask Emma if she wants ya or not Im sick of you constantly checking her out" Katy burst out interrupting my thoughts. I could feel the blush coming to my cheeks luckily with my make up i don't think its noticeable, Rhys doesn't even flinch but instead turns to me and says " How about it Emma" with a twinkle in his eye, I swallowed some air while trying to think of a smart answer but nothing sprung to mind, I felt his fingers laced through mine as he guided me through the crowd over to an empty booth, I could feel my heart race but tried to keep up my carefree attitude but I knew he could see right through me, I gulped down the rest of my drink I had just bought to give me me a boost and I moved closer, close enough to feel his warmth and see his eyes were green with a twinge of brown through them, I could look at them forever but one night will do.

Thank you so much for reading Chapter One! I hope you enjoyed it, Im not sure where many people on wattpad are from, Im from Ireland, Mayo to be exact,so I understand that society is different here to other countries, Im really trying to portray an average life in Ireland, I know its strange that a 15 year here is drinking! The legal age in Ireland in 18 and by no means am I confirming that Ireland are alcoholics, really we aren't. I myself am 18 and many of my friends have yet to drink and they are older, everyone is different some people so some don't. There are reasons Emma has started and it will become more clear throughout this book! *Emma is not an alcoholic in this book* And again with Katy being very upfront and they way emma went with Rhys, again its something that is done here, at discos or parties and nightclubs, its seem as okay to make out with a stranger as we will never see them again, we don't necessarily cherish a first kiss until the perfect time, sex is a different think i assure you I think most people cherish that :) I just wanted to clear that up before I left :) for the next two-three weeks i will be updating more then once a week as I am my christmas holidays from college and has some free time! -Shannen xx
