EMMA

         Today was the day of the interview. I got up from my bed and started doing all my morning activities. Once I completed, I went down to have breakfast.Today,I was wearing a formal dress seeing as I have to go for the interview.

     "Hey honey, come have your breakfast. I made you your favorite pancakes" my mom told me as soon as I reached down.This automatically made me smile."Thanks mom, you are the best..do u know that?" I joked. "Obviously honey,I know I am the best" she joked flipping her hair over her shoulder. That action got a full blown laugh from me in turn making my mom laugh too.

        Soon dad came out of the room and kissed mom on the cheek and sat down for the breakfast. That kiss reminded me of the kiss Ashton gave me on Wednesday. Instantly,I blushed.

      "Why dear, you look like a tomato!" mom exclaimed teasingly. She very well knew the reason for me blushing stupidly as she was watching everything from her window on Wednesday like a teenager.Seriously! Sometimes I wonder who is the actual teenager in our house.

       "Gee.Thanks mom for making it so obvious" I replied sarcastically. She smirked knowing fully well what I meant. Suddenly Michael came from the room in his cute looking PJs making everyone laugh.

        He sat next to me and gave me a kiss on the cheek which I replied by doing the same.Awwww! Aren't we so cute! 'No, only Michael is cute but you like to think yourself also as cute' my inner me replied making me scowl.

         After finishing my breakfast I went to the school. Today I wasn't attending my classes as I have to watch the soccer match and have to wait for it to end so I can interview Asht- oh you very well know who.

        I was sitting with Oliver . Soon all the players came out and I almost fall from my seat seeing Ashton. No words can describe how he was looking. He was looking damn hot and sexy in his jersey.I saw around me and apparently all girls have the same thoughts as me seeing they were all drooling after seeing Ashton.

          This is the first time I an gonna see Ashton play soccer. Jenny always used to force me to watch but I never went. Speaking of jenny where is that little chatterbox." Emma Emma....over here... wait I am coming over there" a voice came from my side. Ah! Speaking of the chatterbox and chatterbox appears. But I love her.

               " Hey, why are you so late?" I asked her coz she's always on time everywhere. She instantly frowned. "Oh nothing, I had an accident." She said as if it was no big deal. This instantly made me worry. " what happened?? Are you hurt?? Should we go to the doctor?? Oh plzz tell me your car is-" I was instantly cut off by jenny keeping her warm hand over my mouth. I am always the calm one but for some reason the word 'accident' always freaks me out.

      " My God Emma! Calm down. I am fine" she said making me relax. I looked at the field to see jake coming now on the field and Ashton was probably asking him that why was he late.Jake had a furious expression on his face. I have never seen Jake furious. He's always seen laughing or smiling only. So I was little surprised. Brushing it off, I looked towards jenny to see her giving death glares at Jake. I was even more surprised. Wasn't she the one who was talking about how hot Jake was looking two days ago. I swear this girl is weird. I will ask her later what happened.

           The coach blew the whistle and all the players started running. I didn't know much about soccer so I was leaning towards oliver to ask him to explain me. At that moment Ashton scanned the bleachers and a smile came on his lips seeing me (or maybe I think a girl behind me) but it soon disappear seeing as how I was leaning on Oliver. His eyes darkened and he concentrated on playing.

        I was surprised from his action. Today I was actually being  surprised a lot. I began watching the game. Ashton was playing like a pro he is. On the side I saw Ashley cheering Ashton in her mini skirt. That thought irritated me to some point. Don't even ask me why coz even I don't know.

          Jefferson High won the game beating east high school by 10 points. As always Ashton gained the highest points.

I climbed down the bleachers with Oliver after biiding jenny a goodbye. I was fully prepared with my questions to interview Ashton with but then to I can't help but feel a little nervous. Wth! You are never nervous Emma. I calmed down and began making my way towards him.

          That kiss on the cheek certainly didn't mean anything for him but it was my first kiss with the boy other than my relatives. I know I know you must be thinking why I was freaking out because it wasn't on the lips but hey, I wasn't kissed on the cheek by any of the boys other than my relatives. So...

          As soon as I reached near Ashton, I saw Ashley giving me dirty looks. I ignored her and tapped Ashton on the shoulder. He turned and saw me then quickly turned back. 'What was that? ' I questioned myself.

          "Ashton, I am here to interview you" I told him firmly. He turned and gave me a bored look. I actually felt bad. Weren't we OK till Wednesday?? He didn't bother replying me and turned towards Ashley giving her a kiss on the lips. I was shocked. But I have learnt to control my emotions.

         I didn't let my sadness or hurt show in my eyes. My dad always used to tell me " Never let your sadness show in your eyes because it will only give satisfaction to the person who has hurt you in the first place"

I was glad that I took my father's advice seriously.

           After they separated, Ashley was smirking at me and was giving a victorious look as if she suddenly became the president. I just gave her a bored look. I just want to get this interview done with and then I will finally go my way. I also  won't play a prank on him which I had planned as a revenge for taking me on a date because it will be all the more reason for us to communicate which I don't want.

         "Yeah I am ready" Ashton's voice broke me from my thoughts. He was looking at me with an unreadable expression. I sat down on the chair opposite him and switched to formal mode. I won't be at all casual with him and give him the satisfaction of thinking that we are more than acquaintances coz we are not. I sighed tiredly!

  Robotic mode, here I come...
