Who'Ll Get My Heart
First crush sparkled
Emma POV
i walked into Ravenswood High like I owned the place, but honestly, i stomach was flipping like crazy. New school, new me. I dropped my bag at the locker and almost collided with a guy holding a sketchbook.
Liam
"whaoh, sorry! " he said catching my elbow
Liam the artist smiled up at me
Liam
you're new. welcome to chaos
Emma
I laughed " Guess it shows, huh?"
Liam
yep, I'm Liam. Art club, poetry dreads, and all
Emma
I'm.... figuring things out
He handed me a flypost for an art show tonight.
Liam
Come if you wanna vibe
So I showed up to the art show (Liam's, duh 🖌️), and it was poppin'! People were deep in art, music vibing
As I stood there, staring at Liam's art piece, I couldn't help but feel a connection. The way he talked about finding peace in chaos... it was like he understood me 😅. He was standing close, looking at me with those curious eyes, waiting for me to say more.
Liam
Sweet! 7PM at the loft. Maybe I'll show you my favorite piece
Emma thoughts: _He's cute, artsy, and seems chill. What if I mess up? 😅_
Liam shows me his intense abstract piece 🖼️. I was blown away.
Liam
You like? It's about finding peace in chaos.
Emma
I love it. You're really talented
_They talk art, music, and dreams till the Loft closes_
second crush sparkled
I walked into the school cafeteria, scanning for Liam. Spotted him chatting with Noah - tall, quiet guy with glasses, into coding. Liam waved me over.
Liam
Meet Noah. He's hacking away at some AI project
he introduced me to the guy next to him, as I shook him
we ate in silent as I kept staring at Noah trying to catch his fancy
Emma
what's your Major" I asked
I stared at him and was mesmerized by his handsomeness, I'm lucky to be surrounded by cuties
Emma
oh, so will you tell me more about it" I said, trying to make him my friend
Noah focused on his food as Liam chirp in
Liam
Noah is snubby sometimes, he's practically a nerd
Noah
I'm not, I'm just observing table etiquette
He took a quick glance at me and then Liam and stood holding his tray
Emma
so--- about your art stuff, can you really help me out
Emma
I'm not really good with drawing, but maybe I could use some of your techniques if you teach me
Liam
you could stop by, at my art studio
Liam walked to meet his friends as I walked alone to my hostel, then I bumped into someone
Emma
ohh, Noah --- I'm sorry
Noah
so the new girl is clumsy, hmmm" he made a wry smile which look cute
he's indeed cute, gosh-- I can't believe I'm crushing on someone I just met today
Noah
I taught you're an art student
Noah
I don't think you'll get along just fine
Noah
because you're always lost in thought" he handed me my keys that fell
The visitation
Therese
Emma, get your ass here
Emma
what is it Therese, you've been yelling and yelling nonstop
Therese
how dare you call me by my name, I'm your mother you piece of shit
Emma
just go straight to the point, you ordered me here. I'm supposed to be at school studying what you signed up for
I rolled my eyes in disgust, I hate her
Therese
stop making this about you, Emma" she said furiously
Emma
how is this about me, you clearly choose my course even when I wanted something else, Therese how am I making this about me
Therese
I won't let you piss me, up if that's what you're trying to do
Emma
console yourself all I care, just head straight to why you called me here
Therese eyed me and sighed trying to soothe herself
Therese
the Dean called and wanted to have a meeting personally with you
I said dejectedly, feeling controlled
Therese
his son is in your department, so he was hoping to have dinner and maybe bond
Emma
so, you called me here to spew this nonsense
I wanted to walk away, but her words made me stood still
Therese
If you choose to ignore, I'll stop your dad's treatment" she threatened
Emma
fine! It's just a dinner
Therese
it's by 7, so prepare and dress nice" she flung me a check
oh god! what kind of a mother is this
Therese
I thought you didn't see any usefulness in being here, seems like you do now
she said hissing loudly and left
I took a cab to the hospital as I walk to his ward, he was taking his meds
Asaph
what are you doing here" he stuttered
Emma
I just came around for some things and decided to check up on you
Mamie
I'm nurse Mamie, I just administered his injections, and he needs to rest
Emma
Dad, I'll soon be on my way as the nurse recommends
Asaph
be good, make friends
Emma
yeah, is Mamie good to you
Asaph
yeah, she's just uptight a bit but actually comes around
I stood, waving him goodbye with a big smile plastered on my face
