Emma couldn't sleep properly. She just came home from her friend's party. She couldn't get his face out of her mind. I want him and no one else, she would think. It was her college classmate, Harry.
She went to the party without her parents knowing, thinking that he would be there. She came home late at night. But the best thing happened to her, she met Harry on the way back home.
"Hey, you're Emma from Business class, right?" He had asked,
"Yeah!" She said,
"Coming from the party?" he asked
"I was coming from the party!" She said pointing behind her,
She couldn't speak properly, she fell for him hard,
Harry gave her a confused look,
"Ok, bye then," He said almost walking into her, she fell onto him,
"Woah there!" He said carrying her,
"I can't feel my legs, you mind helping me up?" Emma asked,
"Sure!" He said and made her sit next to the wall.
They sat there for some time, talked and laughed, the time was 11 pm,
"I think I'll go now, my parents don't know I'm here," She said,
"Oh! You're a rebel," He said,
"I guess I am," She said flipping her hair and left.
Those big dreamy eyes, that perfect smile, his perfect jawline, His perfect cheekbones, that long, curly brown hair, ugh! I would do anything to make it my own! She would think. Her friends think that she's gone too far, but she doesn't care.
One day, she woke up with a print on her left neck. It was the figure of a bar code with the letters T, H, and O. It looks like a tattoo, so she has to hide it from her parents. Her parents are very strict, and that's exactly why she goes to late-night parties without permission.
Ever since she got the mark on her neck, she has encountered obstacles that could cost her, her life. A bike almost crashed into her in front of her college. She also got lured into a deadly trap, what happened was some guy used a voice changer and used Harry's voice.
She followed it and almost got hit by a truck. She thinks the mark on her neck is some bad luck. Well, she decided to stop thinking about it, and focus on her life for now. Her professor was going to throw an unofficial dance party for the whole college.
Emma wanted to ask Harry to the dance, but she couldn't build up the courage to talk to him. she slowly started drifting to sleep. She hates it when she is thinking of something important and suddenly goes to sleep.
She woke up at 11 am, it was a Saturday. She brushed her teeth, took a bath and went to the kitchen,
"'Morning mom," She said,
"'Morning! I and Dad have something important to talk to you about," she said in an unusual happy tone,
"OK? I guess," She said and went to the hall,
"Good Morning!" Dad said,
"When did you start saying 'good morning'?" she asked, but right after she asked that she knew she was in trouble,
"Just deal with me!" He said and started laughing,
She stared awkwardly at him and started watching T.V.
"Breakfast's ready!" Mom said,
"Coming!" Emma said as she got up from the couch and switched the T.V off.
