Emma's POV
So today is an important day. A sad, but important day. Today, May 13th, marks the 10 year anniversary of my parent's death. I decided that I wasn't going to go out on a mission today. I mean, it's raining cats and dogs outside, so why bother? I sit on my bed in my room and I start to read a book that Ciel had lent me before we left. I suddenly hear a knock on the door, being too lazy to get up I just yell.
"It's open!" I yell. The door opens and I see Lavi walk in. He's hiding something behind his back. "Lavi."
"Hey." He says. He doesn't seem so hyper as he normally does. I get up out of bed and walk towards him.
"Hey, is something up? You don't seem well." I ask.
"No, I'm fine. Listen, I know that today is the day that your parents died and I know that you might be upset, so I got you something a while back." Lavi starts to explain. He hands me a small blue box. I take it and open it. I can feel the tears rushing down my face. It's a pair of blue sapphire earrings. "Emma, what's wrong? You're crying."
"Lavi, where did you get these?" I choke through my tears.
"I got them in a pawn shop back in England." Lavi answers. "Emma, are you alright?"
"I'm fine." I answer. "It's just that, I never thought I would see these earrings again."
"Why?" Lavi questions. I can hear the concern in his voice.
"These were the earrings that my mom wore the day she died." I confess. Lavi gasps as I continue to cry. "Lavi, thank you."
"Listen, I'll leave you alone. You seem really upset." Lavi starts to walk away but I grab the edge of his jacket. He turns his head. I hug him from behind and I continue to cry.
"Please don't go. I don't want to be alone right now." I state. I feel Lavi's hand over mine. He turns around and he faces me. I feel his arms wrap around my neck. I try my best not to cry as much as I want to.
"Emma, please don't hold back. If you need to cry, please." Lavi whispers. At that moment, I start to scream and cry. I haven't cried this much since my parents both died. The two of us stand there for what seemed like hours. After a while, I feel a hand touch my face and wipe away my tears. "You know that crying doesn't suit you." Lavi states. He smiles at me. I put my hand over his. I see his face pull in closer to mine and I don't hold back. His lips touch mine gently and I press back. I feel more tears stream down my face. Lavi then pulls away quickly.
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that when you're this upset. I'll see you later Emma." Lavi walks out of my room and shuts the door behind him. I fall to my knees and I stare at the door.
