I was helping Emily babysit her little sister Claire for the second time tonight. I had simply fallen in love with little Claire and she definitely had me wrapped around her little finger. It was great to be spending more time with Emily, just to get to know her and spend time with her outside of school to you know see the real her. At lunch earlier today I was sitting with my usual mates John and George and this girl who've I've talked to, I dunno once or twice just in class came and sat down next to me and was talking to us. She's pretty and has an impressive chest, we ended up talking for a little bit, she was mainly asking me to help her with her math since I have that class with her and I said I'd help her during class, but only then. What confused me though was I looked up to see Emily looking at the girl and I whilst talking and I couldn't read the look on her face, it looked like jealous or disapproval almost and I don't understand because it wouldn't make sense. I anyways had a blast with Emily and Claire last Friday night and I hope that some friendship will occur between Emily and I, whether it happen by me continuing to help her watch Claire, help her with English or during the two classes we have together at school. We barely talk at school though, we sit on the other side of room from each other in History and English too, I'm surprised we've never gotten paired up or anything. I like her even more, getting to know her a little bit, how funny, caring and nice she is and I can't forget utterly beautiful. I fancy her like mad and have for the past week and she seems to have not even an inkling of an idea that i do and I want it stay that way until I know I at least have a chance with her. I doubt she has feelings for me considering she just got out of that horrid relationship with Ben, I still hate that prick for how he treated Emily, I can't believe he hit her. She deserves so much better then a slime ball like him. I just don't understand the look on her face earlier from lunch, I wish I knew what her thoughts of it was and I'm sure they're wrong. I'm single and I wasn't flirting with that bird but she definitely was with me, being so close to me with her boobs hanging out, i'm not attracted to her though. It's odd because now the only girl I have eyes for is Emily, not really having feelings for any other birds and I'm all of a sudden protective of Emily and I care about her a lot. I have little Claire in my lap as she talks nonsense to me and I nod and play along with whatever the baby is saying with a big grin on her face and occasionally laughing. I sip at my hot chocolate while Emily sits next to me doing homework.
"So how'd ya do in English today?" I ask her remembering we were given some free time at the end of class to read scene 4.
"Not too great, I still don't understand it." she says quietly turning to me with a sad look on her face.
"Still? Well I can help you love, it's not a bother at all." I admit truthfully while we look at each other as Claire has a grasp on my fingers and fiddles with them.
"Really?" she asks and I nod with a warm smile. We finish our hot chocolates and go over to the couch. I try to set Claire down on the floor but she starts crying and so I leave her in my arms and I take Emily's Macbeth book from her and read aloud scene 4 as Claire grasps for the book with her fingers covered in her spit and I laugh and make sure she can't grab it. I was halfway in the scene when I feel Emily's head rest on my shoulder and I smile to myself and continue to read while stopping every now and then to describe in understandable English what Shakespeare has wrote. I was three fourths of the way done when I look to Emily to see her fast asleep on my shoulder as she leans against me and I smile to myself.
"Em?" I say quietly wondering if she was really asleep and I get no answer.
"Claire Bear, what I'm supposed to do? Yer sister has fallen asleep on me shoulder." I whisper to Claire whose in my lap as I put the book down on the coffee table in front of me as I try not to wake Emily. I set Claire down on the floor and she fusses.
"Hey it's okay, darling. Here play with yer baby doll." I say cooing to her while I stroke her soft cheek with my thumb as she pouts and takes the doll from my hands and calms down. I turn back to Emily and move her so she's laying down on the couch and I take a blanket and draw it over her and softly tuck a piece of her blonde hair behind her ear as she looks so peaceful and beautiful while sleeping.
