Hey guys!
So this is going to be my first story which is sort of like a fanfic I guess but not really romantic. It's mostly going to be about friendship. With out further ado let's get started!
—----------—----------—-----------------

Jacob

"Hello? Emma? Are you in there?". Those were the words I had repeated for the past 2 days when Emma found out that my grandfather was dead. "Go away". A muffled voice replied from inside. I sighed. If the relationship you have between you and your best friend isn't normal friendship or even love, it opens your mind to a lot of things. Let me recap. You see, my grandfather had been killed by hollows just a few days ago and I had rushed to tell the Bird/Miss peregrine. (I'm having the story take place where abe introduces all the children to jacob beforehand so that jacob doesn't have to go to wales clueless XD) Miss Peregrine had led me to a private room where I had explained to her what had happened. Naturally she was overwhelmed with emotion. She had kindly requested me to not let Emma know that my grandfather was dead. But little did we know that Emma had been eavesdropping in on our conversation. Her tear streaked face still haunted me to this day. Even though we weren't officially talking anymore, I still wish that I was inside the door comforting her instead of Olive. But this one girl who had had a "thing" for my grandfather was still inside, crying her eyes out.

Present

I rubbed my foot against the clean wool carpet that was layed out outside of her door. The carpet read ~Emma's Room~ Do not enter! But in the tiniest wriing I could make out the words next to the Do not enter! That said "except abe". I sighed ever so gently. I must have been stupid if I ever thought that I could replace my grandfather as her friend. I knocked on her door again just as Olive came out. Her heavy shoes clunked on the door step as she clambered out. I managed to get a glimpse of Emma's face as the door opened. Her face wasn't red anymore, heck she wasn't even crying! Somehow this worried me more than her crying. Before the door could conceal Emma again, I quickly held it open with my shoulder. A jolt of pain tracked down my nerve as the door managed to hit my shoulder. Olive gave me a look of sadness as she walked out. My eyes reverted back to Emma. Her sappy letters from Abe were nowhere to be found and Emma...she looked alarmingly fine. "Do come in Jacob" She said nonchalantly. "Emma, are you alright?" I replied not daring to step into the room without her assurance. "Yes, I am thank you" her voice broke a little but she regained her composure quickly. "Are you sure?". A quick flash of annoyance crossed over her face. "Yes...just a little tired" she tried for a smile but it came across like more of a grimace.

Emma

I wish Jacob could just quite asking me all of these stupid absurd questions. Of course I was okay...I just needed a little time that's all. And I do feel bad about treating Jacob badly (even if he did deserve it XD). But everytime I look at him, he reminds me so much of Abe but at the same time, so little. I find it quite dashing frankly. I just hope that the Bird doesn't come in and ask me how I am. That would utterly me the most embarassing thing that has happened in more that a year! I quickly pulled myself of the bed and smoothed out the wrinkles on my baby blue dress that I've got to say, looked charming on me. I could still feel Jacob's worried look on the back of my neck as I turned away to the window. I had thrown out all of the letters from Abe. I worried that if I kept them, I would just start bawling like a little girl again and that certanly won't be the way to act as a lady! I clapped my hands together. "Well then! Let's get going shall we?" I asked Jacob as I let my fingers light up on fire for the briefest of moments. "Alright..." Jacob said as he started walking down the stairs, but he still had that worried look on his face. I hastened to follow him. But before I did, I gently pulled a snapshot of me and Abe from the waistband of my dress and looked at it. No matter how hard I tried, I could never seem to let go...
