Mr. Emo: part one


Oh the Emotional man. Where to begin with this story? Well I first must state that I had no idea about his emotional baggage (hence his name) and had I known in the beginning I probably would not have gone very far with him, because to tell you the truth, I was the one who was an emotional wreck at the end of all of this.
My sorority sister, Michelle, set up a little meet and greet session with Mr. Emo in the main Courtyard of the school. There were a few other people there too to try and limit the awkwardness. Luckily it worked and to my surprise, I really liked this guy. He was quite cute and strangely charming. I was bummed that I had to cut the meeting short, as I needed to run to class, but I told Michelle that I’d talk to her later. I said my goodbyes and hurried off to class. I sent Michelle a text message from class telling her to meet up with me at the sorority house later to talk about how the Courtyard meeting went. 
When I got to the house, all the girls were talking up a storm. Apparently there was some movie being filmed on campus and a group was debating whether or not they should go watch it being made. Michelle looked at me and I knew she wanted to go. A perfect opportunity to analyze our meeting before, and see what all the fuss was about, I figured I was in.
It was a good 15 minute walk to get to the part of campus where the movie was being filmed, plenty of time to analyze the possible date situation with Mr. Emo. Michelle smiled and told me that Mr. Emo was very happy to have met me. I was thrilled. She asked if she could give him my number and I of course said yes.
It was right about this time that we stumbled onto the movie set. Sarah (another sorority sister), Michelle, and I were all just sitting there watching the chaos. We sat there for a good ten minutes trying to figure out what on earth was going on. A man nearby overheard us talking and joined in our conversation. He worked with the filming company that was shooting the movie. It turns out it was only a music video shoot, nothing too exciting, just some rap artist that I had never heard of. The Movie Man was really nice and seemed to think it was funny that a bunch of girls came out to watch a rap video being filmed. We weren’t the only ones though. I had a feeling he was trying to hit on Michelle and when he turned around for a second she whispered to me that she thought he was cute. This was just a bad idea for her, as she was currently on again off again with a long term boyfriend.  Well it didn’t matter. The movie was still interesting to watch and now, after having confirmed that Mr. Emo was still interested, Michelle and I had exciting things to talk about.
