A Kind of Love Story

chapter one

Emiline's P.O.V.

  I wrote.

     Dear Diary,

  Will things ever change? Will dad and mum quit fighting? Its hard being there when they fight, its like a piece of my soul is ripped out of my chest. It feels like they don't love me anymore.... All of those thoughts vanish when I sing. Singing is like my escape route from the world. Casey helps and I know that she would do anything for me, that's why she is my best friend. I love her to death!

  well until next time,

     Em.

  After finishing with my diary I glance at my phone to see I have a text message.

 From Casey 

      "I'm coming over. see you in a few(: xxx" 

Then sending her a quick text saying okay, I hopped off of my bed and placed my diary between my bed and my mattress. I quickly walked around my room and straightened everything so it was in order.

 I walked down the stairs,softly humming to myself, toward the door. Opening it, expecting to find Casey, but  was greeted by Lucas Johnson.  

 To say I was shocked would be an understatement. I mean, why would Lucas Johnson, the schools bad boy, be at my door step. I must have been lost in thought when a clearing of throat brought me back to reality.

   Quickly looking up, I say, " W-w-what are you doing here?"

    Chuckling Lucas replies, " Glad to see I have such an effect on you sweetheart."

My words seemed to be lost. Did he just call me sweetheart? No I must have just imagined it.

  " Sweetheart aren't you gong to invite me in? Or are you going to make me stand out here all night?" 

Its for sure. He did call me sweetheart and I did not imagine it.

  without replying I moved aside and let him in. Closing the door I turned around to see Lucas sitting on my couch with his feet up on the coffee table.

   Who did this kid think he is?! He cant just go into someone's house and treat it like his own! Before I could say anything Casey barged into the house.

  " IM HOME BIT..." her words slowly dying out when her eyes captured the attention of Lucas.

  smirking she turned to me, " Em who's this?"

   " U-u-h Lucas" I replied stuttering a bit.

  " I see that, but what's he doing here. In your house. Sitting on your couch?"

  " What is this twenty questions Case? I have no idea why he's here. Why don't you ask him yourself." i smiled innocently.

 You see, Casey has a crush on Lucas. She's liked him since eighth grade when he moved to Hampton. Of course she didn't go after him because as soon as he moved he was labeled the schools bad boy and Casey loved to please her parents.  Dating the bad boy would ruin her good girl image, according to her mother.

 Lucas took this time to speak for the first time since Casey's arrival, " Well hello there, who are you?" He was being flirtatious when he spoke.  

 " Lucas this is Casey. My best friend and sister" I smiled. 

     Casey's P.O.V

 

   As I pulled up to Em's house I noticed a black Audi that I had never seen before. I parked my car and headed to the door of the house. Without knocking I walked in and shouted. " IM HOME BIT..." but my words died off as soon as I saw him. Lucas Johnson. I stood in the door way completely froze. Not knowing what to do I turned sharply and asked Em, " Em who's this?" I decided to play it off like he was nothing to me so I smirked, but really I was freaking out on the inside. Lucas was so gorgeous! Of course I didn't have a chance with him.. He goes through girls like their gum or something.

   " U-u-h Lucas" Em replied stuttering a bit. Hmm I wonder why.

  " I see that, but what's he doing here. In your house. Sitting on your couch?" I questioned.

  " What is this twenty questions Case? I have no idea why he's here. Why don't you ask him yourself." Em replied sweetly, too sweetly.

 For the first time since my arrival Lucas spoke, " Well hello there, who are you?"

  I was about to reply but Em beat me to it saying I was her best friend and her sister. We weren't related biologically but it felt like we were. We've known each other since we were little kids.

   " I'm Casey, but you already know that." I spoke lost in thought.

 " Your pretty cute..." he replied shocking me

 Before I could speak he spoke again , " Go on a date with me."

 To say I was shocked would be an understatement .did he just ask me out? I was completely lost in thought when a snapping of fingers in front of my eyes brought me back to the present. Lucas was looking at me expectantly and I realized I hadn't said if I would go on a date with him. My parents would definitely not approve of him.. Should I say yes.. You know what I shouldn't have to listen to my parents, I'm seventeen for goodness sakes!

 " Of course I will." I grinned at Lucas. I turned to Em to see her with her mouth on the ground at my answer. then her look of shock becomes one of pure evil. Oh no. She's probably going to want to dress me up for the date.

    " Well I'm going to go. Ill pick you up here at seven tonight." he told me smiling, " Oh and dress warm."

 Lucas walked past Em, and then me and walked out the door leaving me with a smile stuck on my face. And Em had a look of pure evil on her face.

 I wonder what she's thinking, but I knew it sure wasn't  going to be good for me...
