Emmett and I were busy working in town square as we always do before we heard an unfamiliar voice start talking. "Hello, Emmett" we heard as we looked at each other before where the voice came from. He stood up straight as he looked at the person. "Miss. Strickland, what do you need?" he asked. I shook my head and focused back on what I was doing. "I wanted to discuss whatever you were making out here the night Kid Tannen was thrown in jail." she said and I pretended not to listen. 

"I thought that you believed that my inventions were a menace to public safety?" he asked as he looked at her. I flipped through a couple of pages as I stood there. "Did I? I don't recall saying that." she said and Emmett and I shared a look. He shrugged gently as Edna looked at him. He sighed gently as he decided to indulge with her inquiry. 

"All I did was make a levitating car, one that could be able to make traffic jams and car accidents a thing of the past." he said as she smiled and nodded "I would love to hear about what other ideas you have in that big brain of yours." she said and they walked off as Emmett started talking about his ideas. I sighed gently as I watched them leave, a tight feeling had started to fill my chest as I watched them walk away. 

I clutched onto the paper that I had before I walked off and went to my house. I sighed as I had my arms crossed as I walked into my house. I couldn't get Edna and Emmett out of my head. I walked upstairs and went to my room as I laid down. I rubbed my face a little. Why did I feel like this and why did I hate Edna so much? I sat up slowly as I went to my drawing table. I sat down and started to sketch a couple things as I tried to clear my mind. 

-time skip- 

I was torn from my drawing as I heard the phone ring. I answered it as I had an idea of who it was. "(y/n)! Where'd you run off to? I got back from talking to Edna and you were gone" he said as I hummed gently. "How did your walk with Edna go?" I asked as I tried not to have too much venom in my voice. 

He was quiet for a second. "You sound mad, did I do something wrong?" he asked and I looked at the drawing as it was Emmett and Edna. I bit my lip. "Emmett." I said gently. "I'm a little tired, we can talk more tomorrow." I said and he sighed. "Oh, okay. Goodnight" he said before I hung up. I pushed away from my desk as I sighed deeply. I felt my heart start to hurt as I leaned forward a little. I looked at the picture of Emmett on my desk. It was a surprise photo that I had taken and he's hated it ever since. I giggled gently as I looked at the picture before I picked it up and sat on my bed as I sighed. I remember what we were doing with this picture. 

-flashback- 

I snuck over to where Emmett was as he was working on an invention. I smiled as he had ran his hand through his hair and messed it up as he worked. He had some marks from the pencil on his face as he kept touching his face with it. I would have gotten away with taking the picture if it wasn't for the flash on the camera. I showed it to him and he sighed as he tried to take it from me. He hated the picture and every time he sees it he shakes his head at it. 

"Get rid of that picture!" he said as he had his arms crossed. 

"Awe, is Emmett pouting?" I asked and he would turn away from me and look at his desk "No, I just don't like the picture" he said and I leaned over the desk and hummed. 

"What don't you like about it?"I asked and he looked at me. He leaned over on his desk as he sighed. "You know, I like this picture. You know why?" I asked and he shook his head as he looked at me. "Because. It shows how hard you work and you don't care if you get messy doing it. Besides I kinda like it when you mess your hair up when you work" I said and mumbled the last part. He blushed gently and sighed "You can keep it but you have to keep it at your house" he said as he stood before he looked at me. 

-End- 

I sighed gently as I looked at it before I put it on the table and laid it down. As much as I hated it, I couldn't look at him. I crawled into bed and sighed as laid there. Maybe tomorrow I would feel a little better.
