The email notification chimed, and Emily felt a sudden warmth spread through her chest. It was from Jake Thompson, the boy who used to trip her in the hallways and call her "four-eyes." She nearly dropped her laptop, her breath catching in her throat.

She spun around in her chair, a silly smile plastered on her face. Her hand instinctively reached for the makeup brush on her desk, and she decided to freshen up her make up. She then decided to pick up the phone and call her best friend to tell her the news, she simply couldn't wait. This was a moment she was going to cherish.

"Oh my god," she whispered, her voice barely audible. "This is going to be so good."
