Emily's POV
Bzzt.
My phone vibrated in my pocket, when I was about to fall asleep in English- my last class for the day, startling me and definitely waking me up. I looked up to see if the teacher has heard that and when I saw that she was still going on and on about some book, I got my phone out of my pocket and saw that someone texted in the group chat. I unlocked my phone and opened the messenger app.
Liam: "Guys I'll bring the pizza."
Sarah: "I asked my parents and as predicted I'm coming. Do you want me to bring the drinks?"
Me: "Okay Liam, pizza is on you."
"That's great Sarah :) I'm glad. And sure. Can you please buy ciders too?"
Sarah: "Sure thing Em. We don't usually drink much either way, so ciders are good."
Me: "Thanks :D"
"I can pick a couple of movies that we can watch later on and I can make cupcakes."
Carter: "I'm buying snacks."
Leah: "Noo I wanted to do that :("
Carter: "Okay then I'll buy the sweets and you buy the rest. What do you say about that?"
Leah: "Deal :D"
Me: "Lazy bum, you'll help me with the cupcakes!"
Jack: "Damn! I was hoping that you'd forget about me."
Me: "Not a chance J :P My memory isn't as bad as yours :P :D"
Jack: "Ha. ha. Ha. Very funny -_-."
Me: "I know right :P You're not getting out of helping me though!"
Jack: "Ugh fine ya butt. When do you want me to come over?"
Me: "Well the others can come around 7 let's say, so you need to be there around 5."
Jack: "Okay."
With that the texting finished and I was once again left to listen to the boring lecture. Just fifteen more minutes Em! You can do it! Stay awake! I thought. Instead of listening to the teacher I decided to finish my drawing that I started last week. I turned to the last page of my notebook and there was it. The drawing was of a boy and a girl sitting on a bench, under a tree, and watching the sunset. The boy had his arm around the girl's shoulders and she had her head on his shoulder. For a second there my mind went back to how this could've been Tyler and me, but the thought went away as fast as it came.
All that was left to do were the details- I had to draw the girl's hair as if it were in a braid, the tree's branches and leaves. I started making soft lines with my pencil and before I knew it fifteen minutes were over and it was time to go home. I collected my things, put them in my bag and headed for my locker, where Jack and I usually meet so that he can give me a ride home. Every time I got there before him, because my English class was really close to our lockers, whereas his Bus math class was on the other side of the building. Today was no different, I got there, unlocked my locker and started putting the things I didn't need in there and got the books I needed for my homework. I then closed my locker just to see that someone was already standing there, leaning on the locker, next to mine.
