When 17 year old Emma breaks her leg during cross country practice everything's goes down hill. She used to be the best runner on the team, but now that she is in a cast for a few months she can't run.
Emma goes through changes and has to deal with...
When Joelle came to the party I was more than sober. Even though it's impossible I felt like I wasn't just drunk an hour ago.
Joelle is my best friend, but I can't help but feel I have to my best around her and make sure she is protected.
I know that's very cliche but I don't give two shits.
I don't show it very well but I like her a little. She is so pretty and funny.
But she can't know. I would never want to ruin our friendship.
No one knows that I like her, I keep to myself. Typical guy, I know.
Anyways I went to go find the lovely Joelle and found her with Skyler getting drinks.
We went back to our spot around the blaring fire. I could hear blaring music.
Damn, it got louder. I glanced at Joelle who was humming to the music.
After about two hours the party was over and everyone went home.

The party was finally over and Payton took me home.
Now we are standing face to face at my front door.
"I had fun." I smiled.
"Me too." He rubbed his back, obviously nervous like me.
In the movies this is where the two kiss but I don't think my nervous ass could do it.
"Well I should go." I looked at the door, know that Emma is probably asleep or awake waiting for me.
"Yes. Yeah you should." Payton grinned.
I couldn't take it anymore.
I grabbed his face with my hands and kissed him.
Just kidding. Instead of that I walked into my house waving bye to him.
I silently heard at myself for being stupid.
Voices came from my room as I got closer.
Maybe Emma was on he phone. But as I got closer it was Brooks and her.
I open my door and see the two sitting on my bed. Brooks' hand on her thigh, the other playing with her hair. Emma's eyes trained on his.
"What. The. Actual. Fuck." I could only make out certain words. The two bolted apart.
"Skyler." Brooks' eyebrows raised.
"I'm sorry." Emma limped away from Brooks. Shit, where are her crutches?
"How long?" I asked.
"I don't understand." Brooks admitted.
"How long! How long have you two been doing this?" I asked.
"About two weeks." Emma frowned.
"Damn it!" I yelled.
"I'm sorry." Emma repeated.
"Don't be! I was waiting for how long you'd two get together." I grinned ear to ear.
"The fuck?" Brooks mumbled.
"Wait, what?" Emma questioned.
"I have been waiting for you two to get together. Damn took you long enough. I have been shipping you guys together since we were in fifth grade and Brooks was in sixth. Holy hell." I laughed.
"Well, go away Brooks I'm tired so leave." I demanded and walked into my closet.
