Just cause

"Mom, can Emma come over?" I ask. "I guess so, just make sure the family room is clean first"
"Okay, I will"
A moment later I yell up "its good can she come now?"
"Yes" she says with that motherly tone.
About 15 minutes later the doorbell rings, I rush up from my room and open the door. "Emma! I haven't seen you in ages!! I missed you" I start screaming. "I missed you too Blaire!!"

After I take Emma downstairs, my phone goes off a million times. "wow B, who's so interested to talk to you?"
"Umm... it's Caleb, you know the one in my French class."
"No idea.." says Emma
"The one who's dating Sabrina..?"
"Oh I know now, what's he texting you for.?" She asks giving me that look like I know you like him.
"What it's not my fault I don't even know his number!" I squeal.
Emma says stuff about if Sabrina finds out I'm screwed, but if he texted me first how would it be my fault?

"Thanks Melissa for dinner, it was really good."
"Oh thank you Emma!"
I thank mom for dinner and head back to my room with Emma. After talking for hours on end we both start falling asleep, even though it's barley 1030.

I woke up before Emma, it's 7:26 am. Uh it's only Thursday, still another day of school after today. I get up and head to the washroom to get ready. I wash my face and brush my teeth, then I put my blonde hair in a side French braid. Finishing my braid off with a hair tie, I head back to my room where Emma is slowly waking up. I laugh. She looks up "how long have you been awake?"
"Just a few minutes, now let's go it's only Thursday we still have school"
As Emma headed off to the bathroom, I chose my clothes. Black leggings with a burgande tanktop and a flannel. Then I started my makeup, after my powder I started with mascara, looking into the mirror with my blue eyes thinking wheather or not to put eyeliner on, Emma comes out and says no eyeliner. I say okay and just put mascara on.
Emma and I head off to school leaving at 8:20. When we get to school Emma and I say bye to each other and head off to our classes. French :). I've started to like French now because Caleb is in my class and sits beside me. We get assigned a project with the person next to you. That means Caleb is my partner! Ah omg he's my partner! Our assignment is to take a play that is 5 minutes and make it French and act it out. We're given 2 1/2 weeks to complete it. Our teacher says most of our time will be from at home. When class is about to end I ask him to come over to work on our project this weekend, so I give him my number.

After school I see Emma and she asks how Caleb was in French. "we're partners for the next 2 1/2 weeks so I invited him over this weekend" I say.
"Why? You have 2 1/2 weeks.." she says. I reply with "just cause" with a smile.
