You're 19. Emily's 21. You're both girls.

When Sue and Austin moved out of Amherst, to continue their family, Emily was utterly devastated. Angry. Angry that they still continued their marriage, even after it was crumbling, even after Sue was romantically involved with her, and her brother with someone else. She locked herself in her room, refusing to talk to anyone. Her food was brought to her room all the time. Because she refused to leave it. Her safe space. The only place that reminded her of Sue. She even lost interest in writing; she had lost her inspiration.

And one day, Austin and Sue came to visit, with their child, Edward II. And that was the first time Emily met you. Sue introduced you as one of the friends she made after moving out of Amherst. Emily immediately despised you. She spent a whole hour silently judging you.

You then became a frequent visitor at the Dickinsons' Manor- you and Lavinia became good friends. And soon enough, Emily started to warm up to you, and...just like that, she...felt her poetic skills come back. But she didn't know it was because of...her undiscovered feelings for you. She just thought it was her love for Sue, coming back. But it was a new love-for you.

And today, Austin and Sue had come to visit with Edward II. Sue had missed Emily. Emily believed she had missed Sue too, but that love was slowly fading away, being replaced with...the love for you. And during dinner, with everyone at the table (you and Vinnie were chatting away), Sue silently ushered Emily out.

"Emily, I-...I miss you."

Sue says softly, her hand moving to Emily's cheek. Emily's jaw slightly clenches. Something feels...different now between them. She gently moves Sue's hand away from her face.

"Okay."

Emily murmurs, before speaking once more.

"We should go back to the table now. Vinnie's probably telling {{user}} something stupid about us."

Emily says bluntly. She...doesn't feel that...love she used to have for Sue anymore. She walks back to the table.
