Emilia finished stirring the cream and put down the mixer. She looked up at the couple dancing in front of her in her own living room. A heavy, sinking dread filled her stomach. She looked at her best friend, Daisy, staring ever so softly into her lover’s eyes. She seemed so content, a rare tranquil moment in her otherwise chaotic nature. Leigh, the lover in question, seemed just as love stricken as their girlfriend. They leaned in and shared a soft, purely fluff worthy kiss. Emilia had given them this lovely meal and movie combo as a one year anniversary gift. Emilia sighed, a whole year of pining for her own best friend’s partner.

Emilia didn’t notice the smell of smoke before Leigh called out; “Mills, the muffins!”. They then ran to the stove behind her as Emilia was being pulled back to reality, not quite enough for her body to move to action yet. Leigh opened the oven and pulled out the tray as Daisy opened every possible window as far as they’d allow. The tray was put on the stove to cool off. Every single blueberry muffin was black and hard enough to break a window. Emilia thought it too bad she hadn’t needed a weapon instead. 

She slumped down the counter and closed her eyes. Why, why, why did this always happen? 

“You okay Mills?” Leigh asked as they bent down next to her. Their faces so very close. Leigh’s hand on her cheek in a comforting and presumably friendly way. Emilia could smell their shampoo, coconut as usual, as she stared into their icy–blue eyes.  The smoke alarm stopped beeping, signaling that Daisy had turned it off. 

“Yeah, just bummed that it happened again.” She answered defeatedly. Leigh smiled that wonderful smile of theirs, full of sincerity. They helped her up to a standing position, seeing Daisy now sitting on top of the counter with her legs crossed. 

“On the bright side the raspberry cream tastes amazing!” Daisy said ecstatically before doing a little dance to the song currently playing, therefore getting some of the cream in her black hair. Leigh laughed at their girlfriend’s antics and got a paper towel to remove it. They gave Daisy a soft kiss on the cheek before mumbling asking her if she was fine. She nodded before they started hugging and being all cutesy once more. Emilia felt her stomach twist even more at the sight, wanting to just get the day over with.

Emilia hurried down the crowded hallway. She needed to get away. She couldn’t even think about being around the happy couple anymore today. She needed a break or she’d break down and cry. The only place she could think of going was, of course, the library. 

Emilia took a sharp left before barging into the silent room. Some students gave her dirty looks for interrupting them so she gave them the most sincere apologetic look she could muster. A left was her next move as she walked along the familiar bookcases, her feet moving her to her usual location. The bookshelves in the very back. The only bookshelves in such a pristine condition it seemed more like an altar, which Emilia found strange considering the subject. 

The anatomy of whales. 

Emilia was sure Mrs. Wetherbye had got to have some of her whale x human porn around somewhere, which although the idea absolutely grossed her out, she was still somewhat interested in how that would even work. 

Nope. Not going down that route. 

Again. 

She noticed the boy standing at the end of the shelf, reading a book about whale genitalia. She held back a laugh as she moved closer and saw the look on his face. The book may be up-side down but the pictures were still very much life like, as per Mrs. Wetherbye’s request. 

“Let me guess, you’re trying to join Mrs. Wetherbye’s whale cult, or no, no, now I know. You went to the aquarium last night and felt an unusually ‘fond’ feeling towards the newest member of the whale habitat, Lola.” Emilia teased as she took the book away from him. 

“Exactly. And you’re looking for her secret whale porn, right?” He teased back. 

“Omg, how did you know? I’m this close to finding it though, I tell ya, Joe.” She answered dramatically while showing how close with her fingers, earning a chuckle from the blonde. 

“So, what brings you here today, Mills? The usual?” The same question she’d heard a million times before. 

“You betcha, you too?” 

“Yeah.” He sighed. “But it’s getting better, you know, she’s getting out of her honeymoon phase, so she doesn't bring him up as much anymore.” He answered but she noticed his nose wrinkling up a little before he couched. The telltale sign of one lying Jonah McQuinton. 

“Yeah right, she’s probably calling him as we speak.” She snorted. He went quiet. 

“Anyway, we’ll talk about something else. I’m sorry. Nice weather?” She smiled as he laughed a little. 

“Why is your go-to always to talk about the weather?” 

“Because I’m obsessed with Mrs. Wetherbye of course.” She teased. She turned around ready to leave when she slipped. She cursed any god she could think of, hoping the ground was now somehow made of rubber. It wasn’t. She groaned as she hit the marble floor. Jonah laughing in the background before helping her up.

Aw. It has its own tag. Hahaha. Saw that when I was editing tags for “More Than Corn in Indiana” on AO3.

So today was my first day of college. And I absolutely loved it! All the people on my course are lovely and the lecturers are awesome! I can't wait to really get into studying film and television and especially the work experience!! I was only in for a few hours today as it was more of an orientation rather than an actual college day, but it was still fun!...(besides the 8am rise!!) AND I have Fridays off!!! :D

My room mate moved in today. Her name is Sarah, and she's fairly awesome, a bit quiet but I'm not going to complain about that haha! She's studying acting so that's pretty awesome and handy for me doing film and television! But yeah, it's going to be weird being in the house with another person now, I'm so used to being alone in here. But I'm sure it'll be fun! Once we get to know each other better, all will be good! :)

I'm not in til 10.30 tomorrow so yay, lie in!! :3
