Emma sat at her desk on Monday morning, the events of her weekend running through her mind. Her dinner with Will had been the most romantic time she'd ever had. And his kisses! God those kisses made her feel like she'd melt into a puddle on the floor. She blushed at the memory of the tingling she'd felt in her gut as his tongue came out to caress her bottom lip, and the moisture she later discovered in her underwear when she got home. Will Shuester did something to her that no other man could or had. Being apart from him since Saturday night had taken its toll. On Sunday Emma had woken up in such a funk that she decided to clean her house from top to bottom, just to prevent herself from high tailing it round to Will's to have her wicked way with him. She smiled to herself secretly. Oh how she'd love to have him wrap her up in his strong arms and show her the sincerest form of love...
"Hi Em."
'Talk of the devil' she thought as his voice cut through her reverie. She hurriedly tried to compose herself by ducking her head and tucking a stray piece of hair behind her ear before lifting her head again to meet his baby blues.
"Hi Will." Try as she might, she couldn't help but blush like a schoolgirl.
Will noticed and decided to tease her, "Miss me?" He asked as he sat in the chair across from her desk, his elbows leaning on her desk with his hands resting underneath his chin.
Emma blushed even more so that her cheeks were the same colour as her hair. Will took pity on her then, "...Because I missed you."
Emma glanced up suddenly so that she could be sure he was being sincere. It wasn't that she doubted him, she just wasn't used to this kind of attention. When she was confident that he was telling the truth, she responded in kind.
"I missed you too." Her blush still hadn't disappeared but she spoke confidently; truthfully. She had missed him, but she was in uncharted waters now. They were in uncharted waters. They'd never made it past one date before.
There was a brief silence before Will cut through it, "So, I was thinking that it'd be nice if we could go on another date soon...how...how do you feel about that?" Will stumbled over his words. He was so afraid of pushing his luck but he couldn't stand to be away from her for too long. However, he knew that this had to be at her pace otherwise he'd lose her again, and he wasn't going to let that happen if he could help it. He looked at Emma hopefully who looked like she'd just been asked the square root of 387. It wasn't a hard question, but Emma was so unsure of what lay in store for them. She looked at Will and could see the emotions running across his face. He was wary of messing this up too. She smiled at him warmly which resulted in a grin spreading across Will's face.
"Sure, I'd love to. Shall I cook this time?" She suggested.
"Well actually, I was wondering whether you would like to go to Breadstix." Emma's face fell slightly, she wasn't sure whether she was ready to eat out in a place where she had no control over how clean everything was. Will noticed her reaction and came to her rescue,
"Em, there's no pressure. If you're not ready to go to a restaurant then we can stay in, I really don't..."
"No Will I think Breadstix is a lovely idea. I need to at least try to eat in a restaurant." Emma interrupted. She spoke firmly but Will wasn't convinced that she was 100% comfortable with the idea.
"I tell you what, if at any point you feel uncomfortable, we can get them to pack up our food and we can go home; either your place or mine, and finish our date there. How does that sound?" Will asked hopefully with one of his signature crooked grins.
Emma's heart soared. Will was so in tune with what she needed. "That sounds perfect." she smiled back.
"Great! So how does Friday, at seven thirty sound? I figured it could be a double celebration for getting to the end of the year in one piece."
"What's the second part of the celebration?" Emma asked quizically.
"Getting to our second date..." It was Will's turn to blush. Emma couldn't contain her giggle, he could be so cute sometimes.
"Friday sounds perfect."
Just as she finished her sentence the bell rang for first period. Will sighed before rising out of the chair and coming round to Emma's side of the desk. Her breathing started to increase as he approached, 'Was he really going to kiss her here, in front of everyone?' she thought to herself. The thought made her cheeks grow hot once again but made her feel alive at the sense of danger of being caught. PDA was not looked upon lightly at McKinley. However, she felt Will take hold of her hand and place a kiss on top of it, in a very old fashioned gesture.
"See you at lunch, my fair lady." He bowed in an excessive fashion before making a quick exit to get to home room, he was already two minutes late. Emma was flushed again as she watched him leave her office. Friday couldn't come sooner.
As Will made his way to home room re-ran the events of the past 10 minutes. He had admitted how much he'd missed her over the one day they'd been apart. He had been sincere. He'd nearly driven himself mad after she'd left. Once the dishes were cleared away he still felt too excited for sleep so he settled for a cold shower instead in hope that it would cool his ardour. It had helped a little but as soon as he crawled into bed he caught the scent of her perfume from when she'd slept in the bed the night before and he was hard once again. He didn't want to change the sheets because although the scent of her excited him beyond anything he'd ever experienced before, it also calmed him down. Unfortunately the former was the forefront that night so sleep was not very forthcoming. On Sunday he had to distract himself with things for Glee just so that he could stop himself from calling her and asking her over again. He was aware that she more than likely would have come over, but trying to keep his hormones in check was getting decidedly more challenging and he was adamant that he would abide by the 'take it slow' approach they'd agreed on. After another cold shower before bed, Will fell into a fitful sleep; needless to say that Monday morning reared it's ugly head much sooner than his body would have liked considering the lack of sleep he'd had over the past couple of days. Nevertheless, he was alert, as he knew that he would get to legitimately see Emma, albeit in the confines of school hours, but see her nonetheless. His heart leapt when she'd accepted his offer of another date. The only problem now was going to be being able to contain his excitement for another four days. At least he was going to see her at lunchtime, then once Friday came, they'd have all summer to spend together and explore their new and budding relationship.
Will practically skipped into home room with that thought.
Well there we have it, another one down. This one's a filler so I'm sorry that not much has happened. I tried to get both their perspectives in terms of how their weekends went, as well as getting them on to the next date and beyond. Next stop Breadstix!
You guys are amazing. The reviews have been fantastic. Thanks for sticking with me. Keep R&Ring :)
