Who Would've Known (S.M Fanfiction)

Chapter 36

I'm home with James and Jen, trying to figure out a way to reduce the negative comments. We have been in front of a computer for 3 hours.

"What can we do? What can we do?" I keep repeating the same phrase for hours.

"Em what if we take a break??" James asks me, while I upload a new post on my project page.

"Yeah sure, you guys go ahead I'll join you in a bit." I say while analyzing the likes and comments that start showing up. Of course the likes and comments take a while. So far I have 5 likes and 1 nice comment, from Jen. "Thanks for the feedback Jen!"

"Anytime!"

"Em I think you're the one who needs a break the most."

"What are you talking about? I'm fine! You guys go and watch something on Netflix."

"Okay then." They both leave and I stay there just staring at the screen to be honest. I try to think of something, but there's really nothing to do. I also can't stop thinking of Shawn. I'm angry at him, hurt, but also sad. What if I don't see him again? What if that was all? I hate to admit it but I was really falling for him. Well I think we all have known that since the first minute I saw him. And these are my thoughts the whole night. At times I snap out of it and I keep checking my Instagram, but he just keeps coming back to my mind. That's it until I drift off, with him being the only thing in my mind, obviously.

"Emma.... Emma..." I feel someone shaking my shoulder and I look up to see who it is. "You fell asleep." I take a deep breath and notice my laptop went to sleep aswell. I notice Jen on the couch sound asleep.

"I noticed that genius." I say to James as I sit up and stretch. I then turn the laptop on again.

"What the hell are you doing?"

"Just clicking botons on my laptop, it's fun!” I say sarcastically.

"Emma, please tell me you aren't turning your laptop on to check that damn page of yours."

"Of course not! I was gonna check it on my phone, but I just remembered my phone is dead, so I have no other choice."

"Emma it's 2 in the morning!"

"What are you doing here? It's 2 in the morning?!" I say trying to evade his remarks.

"I fell asleep, seriously Emma turn that computer off." James says now a little bit mad, but I keep ignoring him.

"You should stay the night here, it wouldn't be a good idea for you to drive home at this time, and then go to class at 7."

"Emma seriously just take a break from this thing."

"I'm just gonna check if there's anything new, then I'll go straight to bed. Chill James."

"Emma don't you think you're a little bit obsessed with this thing?"

"What are you talking about? I've been preparing for this, for 3 years."

"I know but you never acted like this, towards the project, before."

"Well James that must be because the project just started a couple of weeks ago, and it's due to the next semester. Oh and also my project is going no where! Thanks to the guy I liked my project is going downhill. I trusted him to be my knight in shiny armor and the one to fix my whole project problem. But then he tells me he can't help me, I have no idea how I'm gonna fix this. If I don't find a way to fix this soon I'll surely get a low grade, and I won't win this stupid project. Do you know how hard it is to find a good job as soon as you graduate. If you don't find a job, then you don't have money, without money you can't get a nice life, and a nice life is my future! So goodbye to my future!" I say letting out everything that was bothering me.
