I'm helpless. I was never a person to want to be number one in someone's life. Until I developed a crush on my bestfriend Emerson. Fast forward a year and my crush is very much still alive but would he ever know. No. Not only because I was scared to ruin our friendship but my supposed friend Gabbie asked him out, knowing I liked him. Like what happened to girl code? Does anyone even follow that anymore?

"Hey Y/n what are you doing tonight?" Emerson asked

"Nothing," I say pausing, "Same as every Thursday night"

"Would you like to come over and just hang out. Watch a movie or something" He says.

"Yeah that sounds nice actually... but I think you are mistaken. For I will be the one watching the movies and you Mr.Kropp will be to busy drawing." I say in a very fake accent

"Well I think you are right Miss Y/L/N... usually but Gabbie is going to be there and I actually pay attention to the movies she chooses" He says back to me.

"Oh ok" I say back nodding. My face visibly dropping.

Emerson left and I kind of just stood there. Am I that boring that he doesn't like hanging out with me. When did it all change? I was lost in thought when Emersons older brother Remington walked up to me. He was a senior where as Emerson and I were only sophomores.

"Hey Y/n I have a question or two for you" Remington says.

"Hey Rem what's up" I respond.

"Why did you look so sad when Emerson told you that Gabbie was going to be over tonight? " He asked.

"I just miss being able to hang out with him on my own, like before Gabbie came in and snatched my best friend to be her boyfriend" I explain.

"I feel that," he said pausing, " It happened to me when I was in your grade. Anyway second question. Instead of going and hanging out with Emerson and Gabbie, who I suspect you no longer like, you come out with me tonight." 

"Ok sounds good but what should I tell Emerson?" I ask.

"About what" He asks back.

"About why I'm ditching him duh" I say laughing.

"Hmm. Tell him that a very cute... no hot guy asked you out on a date" Remington spoke.

"A date is that what this is" I question.

"Maybe"

"Ok... also hot is pushing it. Really far" I state.

"Ouch" He said pretending to be hurt.

It was quickly halfway through the day meaning lunch was almost over. My next class was art which I had with Emerson. I had to tell him this hour or I wouldn't be able to. Mrs. Brown was really cool about us doing whatever we wanted in class so I usually sat in the back corner drawing TV show characters. Emerson came over and joined me.

"Hey so I'm sorry to tell you this but I'm bailing on you tonight" I say while still drawing Damon Salvatore.

"How come?"

"I have a date tonight" I state.

"Who is it, do I know them" He asks.

"I'm pretty sure you know them" I responded.

*Time Skip*

Remington showed up at my house and told me the basic plan. He already wouldn't like that we would be "dating". So naturally Remington decided to make him as mad as possible. I also was going to stay the night. We were just going to see a movie and then go to an arcade.

(Emerson's P.O.V)

I don't know why but, I felt really sad when Y/n cancelled on me. Who was she going out with? At least I wasn't going to be completely alone. Gabbie was still coming over to have a movie marathon.

Around 5 Remington said he was leaving to go on a date. He was going to the movies. Didn't care to ask further. As long as he didn't get drunk and I didn't have to wake him up for classes.

*Time skip*

It was after midnight. Gabbie left thirty minutes ago. Remington still wasn't home. Whatever. I'm going to bed.

(Your P.O.V)

Remington and I got back at like 1:30. That was a bad idea... considering we both had early classes today.

"Don't set an alarm Emerson will come in and wake us up," Remington explains, "If we want this to work then we need that to happen."

"Yeah you're probably right" I say.

We both changed, then got into bed and fell asleep.
