Chapter 3 - Chapter 3:Emily and Royal

Emily and her best friend Royal had known each other since they were kids. They did everything together and had each other's backs. Emily and Royal shared everything except Sean.

One day after school, Emily and Royal sat close to the football feed and discussed so happily until Sean walked by and waved and smiled at her, she consciously looked at Royal before waving back and turned to find her friend looking at her with suspicion. Emily, when did you become friends with the school bad boy it seems to be that you guys are close from the way he smiled at you, what have you not been telling me? Said Royal;

Nothing, you are just thinking too much we are just friends for now ".

For now, you say!!!!

Does it mean you have plans of being more than friends and to think you have been keeping it from me, like seriously I thought we were best friends; Royal said the last word looking hurt and almost yelling.

I knew I was wrong but I didn't want to give in at that time so I said: what's your problem Royal, why are you seemingly getting mad for no reason I just said we are nothing more than friends do you have to look like I betrayed our trust of something; I knew I went too far before I could say something more I saw Royal looked so hurt as he said I only wanted your best wishes at heart and didn't know it was bothersome for you.: he walked away leaving me so hurt and sad. She picked up her bag and walked away, getting to the gate she heard someone's voice beside her Wanna go for a ride?" Sean asked, motioning to his motorcycle.

Emily's heart skipped a beat. "Um, sure," she said, a little unsure.

Emily and Sean started dating, and Emily was happier than she had ever been. She felt like she had found her purpose in life, and it was to be with Sean. He made her feel alive and free, and she loved him for it. But their happiness was short-lived. One day, the Royal stopped by the house and said; so you went ahead to be in a relationship with him, have you heard what the whole school has been saying about you: I said no and he said about the student were saying things like Sean was simply using me for his benefits;

I can't believe this Royal, we just started dating and now this, what if they are trying to spoil our relationship honestly I was almost panicking then Royal held and said: Emi it might not be true I just wanted you to be aware and no matter what am here with you I hugged him back and smiled happily we went indoors and mum called us for dinner and we went into my room did some school activities and Royal was convinced to sleep over my mom, she always has her thing with words.

The next day at school, Emily heard her classmates whispering about her and Sean. She ignored them but couldn't shake off the feeling that people were judging her.

Emily went to the park to clear her head and saw Sean talking to another girl. She felt a pang of jealousy and assumed the worst. Emily ran away, feeling hurt and betrayed not knowing Sean saw her run away and he frowned knowing fully well that she must have misunderstood something. Later, Sean approached Emily, wanting to explain. He told her the truth about the girl he was talking to she was just a friend. Seeing how much his words affected her, Sean apologized for causing Emily pain.

Emily felt her heart melt at his sincerity. They hugged, and Emily knew she had to trust Sean. Later, Sean approached Emily, wanting to explain.

Emily called Royal over the phone excitedly and told him about what happened and how he cleared out things for her

Royal: wow, Emi that's nice and I'm happy for you, what do you think about the three of us having lunch in school so I can get to know him better

Emily: yes, that's gonna be a good idea, you know what I'm going to inform him about that tomorrow in school and a little bit sleepy, love you bestie.

Love you Emi.

The next day was fun as Emily and Sean met with Royal who had a nice time talking to Sean

Royal pov

I watched as Sean walked with Emily and smiled while discussing happily, I known promised Emi to try and accept their relationship but something about him gives me a red flag well I just have to try and accept it for her.

Nice to meet you Sean; said Royal

And nice to meet you too, I have so heard much about you and it's good we finally met said Sean happily.

Oh really, Emily noticed the tension brewing from Royal so she laughed awkwardly and tried to lighten the mood she brought the both of them to sit down and they ordered some snacks and had a light conversation. She noticed Royal began to warm up to Sean, and he became a part of their group. Emily felt happy and content, knowing that she had found someone who accepted her for who she was.

But Emily was keeping a secret from Sean, one that she feared would ruin everything.
