Emily...I just can't stop thinking about her. I wish she was mine. Her smile, her laugh, her personality...but it all seems like a facade. I want to see the real Emily, not the over-confident bitchy one. If only I could see beneath her facade. Beneath her beautiful. Suddenly, I started singing softly to myself. The song just flowed out of me:

'You tell all the boys no,
Makes you feel good yeah'

Just like how Emily rejected Jayden without even caring.

'I know you're out of my league
But that won't scare me away oh no
You've carried on so long
You couldn't stop if you tried it
You've built your wall so high
That no one could climb it
But I'm gonna try

'Would you let me see beneath your beautiful
Would you let me see beneath your perfect
Take it off now girl, take it off now girl
I wanna see inside
Would you let me see beneath your beautiful tonight?'

Mike...he's really cute. And funny. And sweet. But he seems to keep to himself. A stranger would think he had no friends. Even now I don't know where is he is. I really want to see the real Mike, not the closed, lonely one. Thinking about him reminds me of a song I once heard:

'You let all the girls go
Makes you feel good, don't it?
Behind your Broadway show
I heard a voice say please don't hurt me
You've carried on so long
You couldn't stop if you tried it
You've built your wall so high
That no one could climb it
But I'm gonna try

Would you let me see beneath your beautiful
Would you let me see beneath your perfect
Take it off now boy, take it off now boy
I wanna see inside
Would you let me see beneath your beautiful tonight
Ohhh, tonight'

I've got to tell Mike how I feel. Maybe then he would be more open? I don't know. But I'm going to find out. Mike usually has some ''alone time'' sitting on the roof of the dojo. How he gets there I don't know. Faintly, I could hear him singing the same song. I softly joined in.
'Would you let, me,
See beneath your beautiful,
Tonight'
'Uh, h-hey Emily,' he stammered 'I was actually singing that song for you...' his voice drifted off
'Same here. Is there something you want to tell me?'
'I-I-I...'
'Love you too' I kissed him. He kissed back.
'So, wanna go out sometime?'
'Love too'
