Chapter 15 Taken

                                                                Taken....

Emily's POV

I couldn't believe myself. How did I get all this courage? I am changed finally :) and that's a positive one.

I kept smiling until I heard someone;

"You never hurt anyone. Did you??" I turned around only to meet with a pair of brown eyes.

"Li-lly?" I asked gulping down the lump formed in my throat.

"New look. Eh? By the way, you are such a big liar aren't you?" She asked glaring at me.

"What do you mean? Lilly! It was you who broke the friendship, you who broke my heart! You who listened to that goddamn Steve! And now you are here blaming everything at me!?" I said not even blinking.

"Whatever, liar! You were the one who started replacing me! You were the one who torn our childhood pic! For God's sake stop lying!"

I was holding back the tears but I didn't dare to cry. "I-it was never me! You never believed me! And excuse me, but I have a lot of work to do rather than just stand there explaining something to someone who can never understand." I shoved her aside and went down the hallway, into my classroom.

While I was going I heard Lilly muttering "I feel sorry for you."

Like why is she feeling sorry for me? I don't wanna be anyone's pity vote. I am Emily, me, myself and I. Duh! I don't even care now! I can take care of myself and moreover, I have Tyler...

I took my seat, and suddenly someone shouted "Hey!" I looked up only to see the person I wanted to see the most.... Tyler!

Tyler took a seat beside me.

"Oh, hey! What's up?"

Tyler looked at me wide-eyed.

"You asking me what's up!? Em! You were totally great there. Trust me but hundreds of students are already feeling sorry and I heard a bunch of students to come and finally say sorry to you! I knew you could do that."

My face lit up in an instance. I don't remember being that much happy before.

"Are y-you sure?"

"Damn sure!"

I smiled and made myself comfortable on the seat. The class went on and all I was thinking about was how Tyler brought a great change, a great influence on my life.

Can life be anymore great?

The bell rang. I gathered my stuff and was ready to go outside, when a bunch of girls called out from behind.

"Hey! Emily!"

I stood there dazed, it took me a while to reply back.

"Umm. Hi"

"Look, we are really, really sorry for what we did. And what you said out there, it totally made us regret what we did. We used to be friends before, but I am really sorry that things changed. We realized that you really didn't deserve all of this. So umm... Can we be friends back again and just forget what happened? It-its up to you we don't force you to forgive us or whatever all we-"

"Guys! I forgive you all! I know its not your fault. Sometimes things change and that's okay. Let's just forget everything and be friends again. So, friends?"

We shook hands and smiled.

"So umm we wanted to ask you something."

I nodded signalling them to tell.
