*Emily's POV*
By the time lunch came i had been called so many things by people I didn't know. I've tried so hard to not cry, but it's getting harder by the minute.
surprisingly Camila has stuck with me, and for that reason she's been called things too. We got a nickname: Whore Twins. I don't understand how she's still hanging around me.
*Camila's POV*
Ever since I met Emily i thought she was a nice person. She seems like a great person to hang arond. Too bad people don't see that in her. I don't get why people pick on her like that. They even pick on me but hey i don't even care.
Apparently we are the Whore Twins. Psh whore twins my booty.
*Emily's POV*
I walked down the hall on my way home when i was stopped by Camila. "Hey Emily, Do you ride the bus or what." i kept looking down. "I walk home, why" I looked at her. "I walk too! and I was just wondering. Mind if i walk with you" I shook my head.
We walk out and on to the sidewalk "So, um tell me something" she said as we walked. "Well, i don't talk to people much. Um...and i don't know..and you?" "Well I like to talk..haha" I smiled "I can tell"
We turned to my street "Where do you live?" i asked. "Here" she said walking to the driveway of the first blue house on the street. "Oh wow. I live at the end of this road" I said "Oh so we live not far from each other." I nodded "Well i'll see you later" I said "Wait" She stopped me. I looked at her. There was silence "Never mind, Bye" she waved, i waved back confusingly "See you later?" There was some thing she wanted to ask or tell me, I just knew it.
I walked down the side walk on my the way to my house. As i walked in my mom was leaving. "Bye hunny i left you food on the table love you" She kissed my head and got in her car and left. I walked in threw my bag, kicked off my shoes, and threw my hair up in a messy bun. After a long day I needed to keep my mind off everything.
I took my phone out and texted Alex
Me: Hey buddy what's up?
Alex: Hey gurl..just got done feeding the dogs and on my way out the door.
Me: sounds cool, where you going
Alex: Oh somewhere, What are you doing?
Me: just got back from a LONG day at school.. #torture
Alex: Its ok Em don't let it get to you
Me: If only you knew
After he didn't answer. Eh what does it matter. He's pretending to care. I just know it.
I went to the kitchen i saw a plate of food on the table. I wasn't very hungry. I opened the fridg took out a water. and sat down. Minutes later i heard a knock on the door. I looked through the window who it was. Alex saw me,smiled and waved. I opened the door. "Hey what are you doing here?" i asked him noticing he had McDonald's in his hand. "Well lets just say i wanted a buddy to eat with." He lifted up the McDonald's bag. I Smiled and let him in.
*Alex's POV*
Ok so maybe i lied. I really wanted to see her. I haven't since Wednesday.It's Friday now. I walked in and put the bag on the table. "So, Eat or What?" I said. She stood there for a while. "Umm...Alright, we can eat"
I took out my burger and hers. I was extremely hungry so i was finished quickly. I noticed Emily had barely eaten. She was mostly staring at her food. "Hey, whats wrong are you ok? Or do you not like what i brought because i can go and get you what you want" I told her. "No..no the food is fine. I was just thinking.." I looked at her. "Tell me, I have time." she sighed
"I don't know Alex, I feel lost. Like i don't belong here. I feel like I'm in a deep dark hole screaming, and no one can here me. No one cares about me. No love. I'm just a waste of space here. I don't fit in." I saw a tear roll down her face. "No Emily look at me" i said looking into her light brown eyes. "I care, if I didn't would I be here? I love you ever since i met you. You fit perfectly here. Don't think you don't belong here because if you didn't you wouldn't be here." I wrapped my arms arond her. "If you feel lost, just know that I'm here to show you the way." She looked up "Just when i thought i was alone you came by. Thank you so much." I smiled "You're welcome shorty"
She pulled away from my arms. "Shorty?" I nodded "Yep it's cute. Your height" She stood up "Oh yeah? you think you're taller?" I stood up. she came up to my nose "Ok maybe your right" she said looking up. "See told you, Shorty." She stuck her tongue out. I laughed. Crazy girl. I hope I made her day.
