Emanuel's POV
Its friday, and this is my favorite day of the week. So, I'm usually in a good mood.
I start walking to school when I receive a text from a random phone number.
"You're the one talking to Lacey."
"Who is this?"
"Michael a.k.a the 'boy'."
I stare at the screen wondering who he was talking about. But then it hit me, he was the boy that stares at me and Lacey!
"Is there a problem with me talking to Lacey?"
"Yes, and you stay away from her. I love her, and you are getting in my way!"
I knew he was jealous. And those very words really did a number on my mood.
It doesn't matter anyway, he's probably just trying to act tough.
"How do YOU love Lacey? You barely even talk to her!"
"She doesn't know this, but I live nearby. She hasn't seen me, but I've seen her around. When she moved in, it was love at first sight!"
After that I ignored his texts.
I am almost to school, just keep on walking. Ignore Michael.
I receive another text from Michael. Curiosity got the best of me, so I decided to look at the text before I entered the school.
"You want to ignore me? Fine, but if you keep talking to her, I'll make your life miserable!"
After that, I burst into laughter. Its just that those words sounded cliche.
I walk towards the area where we sit and sit next to Lacey. I wasn't scared. Not of him.
Not of Michael.
