Emma's POV
As I walked the halls of Westwood high I thought about the Award Show at the end of the year. I can see it now, Mr. Stern saying, "And the award for the biggest nobody goes to..........EMMA NEWMAN!!!!"
I would say, "Thank you, thank you everyone for not noticing me and thank all of you for not giving me a chance and not being my friend!"
Of course, Patrick Stump would get the cutest guy at school award. And most talented, most kindest, and most popular.
He had a friend too, I think his name was Pete Wentz. Pete ALWAYS hangs out with Patrick. Like, they might as well be one person they are so close. Pete is cute, but Patrick is drop dead gorgeous.
I just wished Patrick would at least glance at me. I don't even think he knows I exist.
Tyler's POV
I can't stand it. The girl I have loved for at least like three years doesn't even notice me.
"Emma just has her own space. You either find her listening to music, getting her nose stuck in a book, or staring at one of the most popular boys at our school Patrick Stump. Face it, she will never notice you," my friend Josh said.
"Thanks for stating the obvious," I replied.
"I am pretty good at it. I'll always be the one telling it how it is. You can count on me," Josh said with a grin.
When he noticed how sad I was, he gave me an apologetic smile. "Hey, there are plenty of other girls in this school that might like you. Like Hayley or Katie."
"But I don't want Hayley or Katie." Gosh, I sounded like a 5-year-old. "I want Emma, she is perfect."
"Hm."
About a minute later I spotted Emma in the hallway. She was reading her book, as usual, and also rushing to get to the next class. But then she tripped and spilled all of her stuff on the ground.
Everyone either didn't notice or didn't care. She rolled her eyes and started collecting her stuff.
I saw this as an opportunity, and rushed to help her.
When she saw me helping her, her eyes widened.
I gathered the last of her things and gave them to her. "Th-thanks."
"No problem. Glad I could help," I said with a big smile.
When she left for her class, I noticed I completed made a fool of myself in front of her. When I went back to Josh he smiled.
"Nice job dude!"
"Thanks."
I sulked down to my next class thinking how dumb she must think I am.

Emma's POV

I was doing my usual speed walk while reading to my next class when I realized one of my shoelaces were untied, causing me to completely fall over. I rolled my eyes, because this was not the first time I have tripped. Same old thing.
I was gathering my stuff when something that wasn't usual happened. A guy actually came over to help me. I was so surprised. I was just shocked.
The guy was very nice. I think he said his name was Tyler, and he obviously was very nervous. I didn't understand why though. (Thank you for reading Chapter 1 of "Love will Choose" Comments are appreciated! :))
