Emi sat down tired from dancing. Her heart felt torn and her body was worn. She was alone without anyone there...not even Charmy. She hugged her knees and cried. She felt so broken. He breaths came out as sobs and quivers. She let the tears spill on her shirt and silently wept. Her vision became blurred but she didn't care.
Charmy walked up to Rage. She felt angry that anyone would do this to Emi. "Hey you, we like, need to talk." Charmy said.
"So talk." Rage replied.
"In private." Charmy said coolly.
"Fine." Rage said shrugging. They walked away from the rest of the group and stopped walking. Charmy turned to Rage. "What's wrong with you?" She asked.
"I don't know what you're talking about." Rage replied.
"Dammit, yes you do!" Charmy shrieked. "I want you to like, apologize to Emi!"
"Why should I?" Rage yelled. Charmy was shocked at his tone but swallowed and continued.
"You like her don't you?" Charmy asked.
"No..." Rage said.
"YES YOU DO!" Charmy screamed. Her eyes were pleading...she shared Emi's pain.
"Yeah...as a friend. Nothing more." Rage said.
"Rage...please...tell Emi you're sorry." Charmy pleaded.
"I didn't do anything." Rage said hotly fighting back his emotions.
"YOU, LIKE SAW HER!!!! SHE WAS CRYING!!!" Charmy screamed.
"I don't...I don't know what you're talking about." Rage replied. He started to walk away but Charmy pulled him back.
"She likes you too, Rage." She said her eyes tearing. Rage looked at Charmy for a few moments.
"She...she like's Andrew." Rage said glaring. "Not me."
"No...she...doesn't." Charmy said. She was on the brink of crying. Rage was about to walk away again when he heard something...someone was crying, and it wasn't Charmy.
"Emi..." he whispered. He slowly walked to where he heard the sobs. He saw Emi hugging her knees and crying. She was trying to fight her tears but the struggle was futile.
"If only I never moved." Emi said bitterly. "I would've never met Andrew...or Rage. I wouldn't have been going through this. And the truth is...I really like Rage."
Rage was standing there and listened to Emi's words. Charmy was right! Emi liked him...not Andrew! He knew that he had to apologize. He stepped out of the shadows and tapped Emi.
Emi felt a jolt as someone tapped her. She slowly turned around and saw the person she hadn't expected to see...the last person she expected to see. She didn't know what to do so she just looked up at him. "Can I sit here?" Rage asked pointing to a spot next to Emi.
"Sure..." Emi said slowly. She felt like crying again.
"Emi..um...well, I'm...I'm sorry." Rage mumbled.
"Why should you be?" She asked.
"I didn't mean to...hurt you. In fact, it's the last thing in the world I ever expected to do." He replied.
"Well you did it...and you didn't seem to be so sorry." Emi said starting to cry again. Rage knew that his words wouldn't convince Emi...but maybe his actions would...
"Well I am now." Rage said taking Emi into his arms and hugging her tightly. Emi was surprised and thought of hitting Rage and yelling, but she felt so safe and comfortable in Rage's arms. he held her for a few minutes while she slowly stopped crying. He backed away and put his hands on her face and wiped away her tears. He looked at her and gazed deeply into her soft brown eyes. He gently moved his face closer to hers and she moved closer to him. Their eyes closed and their lips met in a kiss.
Emi's heart was beating. One minute she was crying because Rage broke her heart, now she was kissing him. She was surprised at how right this felt. She was also glad...her first kiss! They broke away from the kiss at the same time. They looked at each other and for a few moments just gazed into each other's eyes. Rage slowly put his arm around her and Emi leaned on his shoulder. Today was the best day of her life...everything was right again.
