Joe's POV

'Caspar? Where's Emma?'

Caspar sat staring at the blank TV screen. His expression desolate.
He merely pointed at the door.
'Caspar...what happened?'
Caspar got up and turned to me.
'I..kissed Emma. She freaked out. We argued. She left.' He mumbled into the floor.
I felt a rush of anger.
Calm down Joe, it's not like she's you're girlfriend.
I wish.
'Mate..you're an idiot you know that right?' I laugh.
Caspar just nodded and went down stairs.
Something must've gone on that he's not telling me...

Emma's POV

'Emma...' Caspar trails off.
I look into his eyes and before I know it: he's kissing me.
For a few seconds I kiss him back.
Wait. No, this isn't right.
I push Caspar off if me, wiping my lips.
'What was that?' I demand angrily.
Caspar shuffles back awkwardly.
'I don't know... I just.'
He sighs.
'Emma.. It's stupid and idiotic and I don't know how to express it. I... Since the moment I saw you in the doorway something.. Something inside me it seemed to ignite and I don't know what to do about it. And I-I feel.. I feel like I...' Caspar trails off and I immediately feel sorry for him.
I put my hands in his.
'Go on.' I say softly.
'I......I'm in love with you Emma..' He says, his eyes meeting mine.
I inwardly gasp.
I freak out.
I let go of Caspar's hands.
I storm out of the flat sobbing.
I unlock the door to my flat.
I slide down the wall and sob and sob and sob until I feel like I have no tears left.

*Flashback 1 year ago*
'Emmaaaa! Hurry up!' Eric shouts from outside the bathroom door.
It was Valentines Day and Eric was taking me out for a 'Romantic Meal'.
Well.. That's what he said anyways.
'I'm coming!'
I finish applying my makeup and walk out.
He snakes his arm around my waist and pecks my cheek.
'You look gorgeous.'
I blush and smile at the ground.

Few hours later

'Emma...' Eric says seriously. A contrast to our conversation about famous quotes from movies.
I look up.
'What's up?'
'Emma.. I... I don't know how to say this..' He trails off.
'Go on.' I say softly.
'Emma since the day you walked into Chemistry all those years ago and tripped over on your pink converse lace...' He smiles. 'God I'm cheesy..'
'Anyways, when you tripped up on your lace it was the first way you fell for me... And now... You've fallen even further...'
I knit my eyebrows together, confused.
'You see, it was a joke all along.' He smiles cruelly.
I choke on air.
'You see, Harry and I made a bet. To see how long either of us could last with the ugliest girl in school. And I chose you.'
'Eric.. Why did you-'
He cuts me off.
'And now that I've lasted the acquired time. It's time to end it.'
And he grabbed me by the dress and shoved me outside...
