Chapter 1 - The Email That Started It All

To: Anissa Marlin & 29 others

Subject: Study Group

Hey fellow Physics students! I might be a total nerd, but I’m kinda freaking out about this class. Can you believe we have an exam our first week? Anyway, I realized that the university email system lets me send an email to the entire class, so I thought I'd give this a try.

Hi, I'm Meghan, the girl with the long brown hair who sits in the front row. I promise I'm not a weirdo. I'd really like to get a study group together... anyone wanna join me?

I'll be at the library at 2pm tomorrow!

Thanks,

Meghan

Re: Study Group

Hey, Megs! I totally should've known you'd do the mass email study group thing. I'd never have the guts to do that. You know me, I'm way too shy to email the whole class. I'm sure they know you're not a weirdo, though.

.... *crickets*....

Just kidding. You know I love you, right?

So, anyway, seeing as we've known each other since Kindergarten and all, do you think you could do me a favor and tell me if that hot guy in the front row has replied? You know the one, right? Piercing blue eyes, shaggy brown hair, abs you can see even through his shirt, asks questions in that smooth voice that just screams "I'm a genius and a poet"...

*sigh*

Anyway… You know I'm not much of a studier, but if he's coming, I'M IN. So, give me a heads up, if you can? Email back, or use our old secret sign language or something. 1 for hottie's-in or 2 for hottie's-out.

I know we don't hang out much anymore but... you owe me, right? ;) You know what for.

Hugs,

Nissa

Megs,

Okay; I am panicking here. Please please please tell me I didn't hit REPLY ALL when I sent that last message.

Re: Study Group

Anissa,

Sorry to tell you, but, yeah... it seems you did. On the up side, at least you've broken the ice, right?

We were besties once, so it is in all honesty and concern for your future that I say this: you might want to consider changing classes. I've already been getting replies through the group email about your message. It will probably be a little hard to live this one down.

Hugs and kisses,

Megs

Okayyyy.... That was awkward. By the way, uh, Anissa, is it? I think the guy's name is Hunter. He's in one of my other classes. I'm rooting for you! LOL

Hey, Anissa, you're the short girl with glasses who sits in the back, right? Don't worry; you're not the only one who thinks he's hot. Hey, Genius-Poet, if you're reading this, CALL ME!!!!

Re: Study Group

Okay guys... haha, very funny.

Look, I'm really sorry. You have no idea how embarrassing this is for me. But, I mean... it was a joke, clearly!

Okay, fine, it wasn't a joke and I know you all know it. But...

Ugh. I'm just gonna go hide in a cave now.

Seriously, I'm switching classes; please don't email me anymore.

Thanks,

Anissa

This is something I would do. Then die. I can’t believe it’s been so long since I read this!
