The Plan

This is the next installment to Cupcakes and Hats.

"So!" emily said, getting down to business. They had set up in emily's bedroom, paper splayed around them on the wooden floor. emily was going to get steven to like her and her hat, no matter what! "xanthus?" emily asked, "XANTHUS!"
"WHAT?' xanthus screamed back, he wasn't happy about making these plans, he just wanted to make out with emily like he normally did.
"we are TRYING to figure out ways to get steven to like me.' Emily retorted. Xanthus sighed, got up off the floor, and began to pace the room.
"well, you have lovely eyes...' he trailed off, fantasising about emilys light blue eyes.
'yes, but we ALL have EYES, xanthus!' emily sighed, he was hopeless. 'we need to think of something only i have!
'pink pouty lips?'
'xanthuuus!'
'shiny soft hair?'
'noooo.'
'an incredibly bright hat?' xanthus gave up. however emily paused, thinking about his proposition.
"xanthus, my friend and part-time lover, i think you might be on to something!' emily jumped up, laughing, ran across the room and flung her arms around can xanthus's neck. she was so excited she didn’t notice him blush furiously, or breathe in deeply, smelling her hair. all emily could think of was steven, and how once their plan was done, he would be in love with her AND her hat.

"emily.... i think that i am in lo-'
'STEVEN!" emily screamed, cutting xanthus mid-sentence. she ran over to him, beaming.
'thats it.' xanthus said to himself, 'no more, no more! i just cant do this!' he turned and stormed out the door, leaving emily and steven talking animatedly behind him.
