Emrys sat down on the edge of the pier and thought to himself for awhile. He had some serious brooding to do what with the fact that his manager had only given him a month for contemplation. And he hadn't found it yet.

He thought one month wouldn't be enough for him to face his anxiety and move on. He had faced anxiety and distress a lot before. But he hadn't had the time before to give it a rest, which he was doing now. Feet dangling from the edge of the pier and face being sprayed by the occasional mists from the ocean, Emrys thought about his anxiety and stress which he had been having a lot lately.

It was starting to get a little cold so he quickly got up and made his way towards his condo. He put his headphones back on which had initially been lying on his shoulder and blasted some more music.

He couldn't concentrate. On the music that was playing through his headphones because he pictured her. He pictured her curly black hair which reached up to her shoulders. The occasional heave to pull back strands of her black hair and to finally reveal her bewitching face.

He pictured her beautiful face again. She had a cool skin tone, smooth, tawny, and fawn. She had nut brown eyes which spoke volumes yet had some hush-hush to it. He wanted to know what secret those eyes were hiding.

He suddenly stopped walking and stood there standing for a while. Because. He had stumbled upon a gospel truth. He was in love. He had liked her from the moment he had first set eyes on her at the Sandbridge pier.

"How do you fall in love with a person you've just met? This is too far-fetched."

"Well if you ask me," Emrys thought.

"It can happen."

Emrys suddenly started running off as fast as his feet would take him and stopped when he had almost reached his condo. He walked the steps up to his porch. He started laughing by himself, his laughter filling the atmosphere of the beach and jumped high, taking his feet off the ground, to high five the imaginary space and air in front of him.

"Why?"

"Because he'd never felt this happy and blissful his entire life."

"He was in seventh heaven and on cloud nine."

She was the reason as to his sudden euphoria.

He was in love with her.

And he himself was shocked at what had come to enfold.

"Screwed," thought Emrys to himself.

"You're screwed, Emrys."

Tansy Peterson

Tansy felt merriment that she got to meet, "the Emrys King," the famous 17-year old singer who stole the hearts of millions of fan girls across the world with his cute face and amazing voice. She was also one of them. One out of the million fan girls who were secretly crushing on him. People listened to his songs since they carried a deep and soulful meaning. And Tansy had come to learn that such deep and soulful meanings were always about one thing.

One mechanism. One phenomenon.

Only one.

Love.

Love meant family.

Love meant friends.

Love meant soul mates.

Love meant marriage.

Love meant siblings.

Love meant your job.

Love meant dreams.

Love meant ambitions.

Love meant hopes.

Love meant all of them.

The only yielding force strong above all the others to complete these set of things all at once.

Love meant him and her.

But there was something more than just love that Tansy would come to know.
