Emily's Point of View

*****

As Matt and I were about to kiss when Nash and Cristal came walking down the stairs. Cristal's eyes were as big as a hawk and Nash just stood there with his jaw down.

"OH MY GOD!" Cristal screeched causing Matt and I to jump to opposite sides of the couch and away from each other.

I glared at Cristal. She mouthed "I'm sorry." and I just shrugged.

"Anyway you guys finished upstairs?" I asked them fixing the pillows on the couch.

"Yeah um hey can I talk to you?" Cristal asked.

I nodded and we went upstairs to where my room was at.

I sat down on my bed as she was pacing the back and forth. That got me a little worried.

"Okay you're pacing what's wrong?"

"I hmolld mnash" Cristal mumbled into her hand.

"Huh?" I asked.

"I told Nash." Cristal said.

That got my attention. Wait Cristal told Nash that means...

"Oh my god what?" I asked jumping up from the bed. "How when where?"

"Well-"

~Cristal's Flashback

Cristal started to dust all the pictures hanging in the hallway.

One was the wedding picture. It included Eric (Emily's dad if you don't remember) Adriana, Mindy, Lindsey, and Emily. In the photo Emily was wearing her mother's locket. Cristal gasps causing Nash to rush to her side.

"What's wrong?" Nash said making his way up to Cristal.

"Nothing." Cristal said.

"Hey that's little Emy." Nash said pointing at the picture.

"Yeah, she looks so happy." Cristal replied.

"She still wears her mother's locket." Nash replied. Cristal was trying hard to keep a straight face. She just nodded.

"She wore it last night at the Masquerade Ball right?" Nash asked causing Cristal to cough.

"What?" Cristal asked in a high pitched voice. "No she was-"

"Don't lie to me." Nash said pulling Cristal by the waist and closer to him. That made Cristal blush.

"I know you and Alyssa were there also." He tucked some strands of Cristal's hair behind her ear.

"How'd you find out?" Cristal asked curiously.

"Matt came up to talk to me after the ball. He showed me the locket and we talked. Cam doesn't know don't worry." Nash reassured.

"Does Matt know about Emily or does Cameron know about Alyssa?" Cristal asked.

"No"

"You're not going to tell them about Alyssa and Emily right." Cristal asked.

"Don't worry it's not my place to say." Nash said. He bit his lip.

Cristal's heart skipped a beat seeing how her and Nash were so close.

"Thanks." She whispered.

"So you're my Cinderella huh?" Nash said with a smirk.

"Well I-"

"Don't worry I'm not disappointed." Nash said catching Cristal off guard.

"Yo-you're not." Cristal stuttered.
