Chapter 1 : Welcome to my life.

“Emily ! Hurry we've got to leave !” called out  Emily’s crush Eric.

"Coming!" she shouted back. Emily has been admiring Eric since high school. It was the most awaited time of the year. Spring break .

Emily and her friends were planning a trip to Florida since almost a year. They all had a dream to visit Florida at least once in their lifetimes.

Emily, Eric, Alex, Justin, Susan & Ron, all belonged to the same school. They was something about them that made the others feel jealous .Maybe it was their friendship or their good looks or their money. All of them were rich, stylish and popular in their own way. 

All of them had a soft corner in their hearts for someone in the group.

As you already know, how crazy Emily was for Eric. But Eric didn't quite feel the same...

No one in the group could hide anything from Emily, she was the one who had everyone's strings in her hand. She knew everything about everyone as she was the trusted one of them all. No one kept any kind of secrets from her. 

All of them enjoyed their lovely week in Florida and now it was time to go. A night before leaving there was a sudden knock on Emily's room door. She was a bit shocked and tried to think who it could be this late. She opened the door slightly and found Eric leaning against the wall beside her door.

"Eric !" Her eyes brightened up and her smile reached her eyes .

"Hey! I was thinking if you could do me a favour?" Eric asked scratching the back of his head. 

"Yeah! Of course! Tell me." She says nodding her head.

"I don't know how to say this but, I  ...I think you already know."

"Eric, its ok .. just tell me" 

"I think I like with Alex. Um, I don't know, but I feel so good around her always. I just want to spend every day, hour, minute and second of my life with her! She is just -  just breath taking" Emily's heart drops as those words come out of Erics mouth.

She could burst anytime and flood the room with tears. But she fights her tears back. She didn't want Eric to know how much she likes him, she didn't want to break down in front of him.

"And you want me to?" She asks as casually as possible. she just wished the conversation ended there.

"I don't know . Maybe talk to her or something?"

"Oh ok . sure, I will do what I can. I am sure I will find a way to help my friend " *you mean, your crush* her subconscious mind adds. 

"Really?" Eric asks with a wide grin. She gives him a weak smile and nods. 

As Eric leaves the room she breaks down. She is too weak to hold those tears anymore. Her dreams of being with Eric, lying in his arms and kissing him softly on his lips are now shattered.

Emily couldn't sleep that night. All she did was scroll through her phone as she saw all those pictures of Eric she took while he didn't notice. His lovely hazel coloured eyes, his perfect blonde - brown hair. His broad chest and tall height. She just couldn't stop crying. Her heart was shattered into pieces and she didn't have the strength to collect them.
