Remember Me?

Black & Blue

It's been a whole month since school started and I feel as if something bad is going to happen, it's been like this since Emma met this guy. Tony she said his name was, he's been inching his way into our lives and I don't like the thought of it.

Ding. Ding. Ding.

 "Oh my god oh my god oh my god!! Jenna he's texting!"

Rolling my eyes I laughed at her, "Emma you act like that is a big surprise you've been texting him over Facebook for weeks now."

She smiled, "Yeah but it's still exciting, you the hot and mysterious junior actually liking the average sophomore."

 "Emms you're not average, if anything you're better than all those senior girls put together."

 "Sure if I am than you're right beside me at the top of the chain, you and me two against the world baby." I laughed at her quoting the movie Grindhouse and went back to my book, Something like Fate by Susan Colasanti one of my favorite authors. While I was on the floor on my beanbag Emma was on her bed lying on her stomach twirling her hair while she texted Tony. Mum and dad have wanted to meet him for the longest but Emma says he's too shy.

 "Why is he too shy to meet us?" I whispered and she froze, nervously she bit her lip and looked away.

 "He just doesn't think you guys will like him."

I almost scoffed at her, "He thinks we won't like him? What because he's a junior and hit on you a freshman on the first day or maybe the fact that he always takes you out late nights and brings you home drunk? Am I right is that why he won't meet us?"

 "Jenna that hit below the belt that wasn't cool. At. All."  She slammed her laptop and threw herself under her blanket, I sighed and crawled over to her side. I could hear her sniffling and instantly felt bad, I never downgraded Emma and if we ever got into an argument I always felt bad about it. Especially when she cries it makes my heart clench in my chest.

 "Emma I'm sorry I didn't mean to say that."

 "No Jenna you did mean it, you meant every word."

I ran my fingers through my hair and grabbed her hand, "I did mean some of it but I only said those words because I'm worried I want to know the guy who you've been sneaking out with, who gets you drunk every night, and who I've never seen even though he goes to our school. I'm just worried about you."

She sniffled and pulled the cover off of her head, a smile breaking through her dark curls. She wiped away her tears and opened her eyes, "I know Jenny I know. I'm sorry I shouldn't have overreacted like that he's just a guy, you're my twin, my other half, my sister."

I jumped up and hugged her, she gripped me back and I smiled, "I'm so glad we can never stay mad at each other."

She laughed and I heard a Ding, sighing I looked back at her and she rolled her eyes as she lifted the computer open. She read the message she had gotten and looked at me and pouted her lip ad put on the puppy dog face.

 "Oh God what now?" I asked.

 "Well there's this party tonight..." I stopped her.

 "No, no no no no no no no!!" I groaned and she hugged me and started whining.

 "Please Jenny please I love you so much I promise I will behave and I won't drink anything, please just let me go!!"

 "Oh my god Em you're so annoying, okay!!" I lifted my finger as she smiled, "But no drinking, stay by Tony at all times, and please don't do anything reckless."
