Chapter 9


~Emily's POV~

Oh my…GOD. Why's Kai here!? I was supposed to meet someone who liked me. Unless…Kai…likes…me. I could think straight anymore. But I had to look okay…or he'd start asking me if I was okay. Ahhh……What the hell am I supposed to do!?!?!?

~Normal POV~

Emily slowly walked down the hallway nearing Kai who leaned on his back against his locker. He had his head down and looked almost as if he was depressed. Emily took her last step and stood stiffly in front of Kai. She didn't want to seem stupid, but she had to know some things.

 "Is your locker #137?" She asked in a curious tone.

 "It is…" he trailed off.

The moment was so awkward, even a crowd sitting in front of them would be this tense. Kai stood up straight and walked over to Emily. Her heart started to sink, and float at the same time. She was losing comfort, same with Kai. He tilted his head down and looked Emily in her eyes with his mysterious crimson orbs. She was acting like they were hypnotizing her in a way she couldn't escape.

 "I don't understand how I came here in the first place, but it was you who got me here…" He started.

Emily stared down at the slightly damaged tiles on the floor of the school. Her body didn't know what to do or how to react.

 "…I just wanted to ask you…if you'd like to go out sometime, maybe even go with Mariah and Ray to the mall and hang out there." He finally said.

Oh was Emily in HEAVEN. Her heart was floating around, making it seem like it was doing a little dance. (A/N: …make a lil love…get down tonight! Oh sorry…uhh…please continue reading…ignore me…-.-…) She tilted her head back up in amusement.

 "Are you okay with that?" he asked again.

 "…do you mean as a friend…or as a…girlfriend?" Emily said with confidence and confusion. She knew she loved him deep down. No matter what. He was her first crush, and love.

 "A girlfriend…if you're okay with that." He said. 'Man…I didn't know I was gonna be this mushy. But I feel…good. Even though I said I hated girls…I guess I lied to myself. Partcially. I like Emily…no one else. THERE I ADMITED IT. ARE YOU HAPPY!?' he said to himself.

 "Sure, I'd love to go out with you." She said. Words couldn't describe how she felt right now.

Kai gave Emily one of his rarest smiles. He never does, only when he's really happy about something. In this case, someone. Emily suddenly hugged Kai and snuggled up to him. He didn't know what to do, but put his arms around her waist, like his guy friends did to their girlfriends. He laid his head on top of her head lightly. They stood there for a few seconds as a janitor saw them, but they didn't notice. The cleaner shook his head and got back to his sweeping.

They broke apart and Emily dusted herself off.

 "I need to go now. Mariah's waiting for me in front of the school." she said blushing a little.

 "I understand. When you get to school tomorrow, go to the fountain in front of the school. I'll be waiting there.

She nodded and turned around to go back outside. He smirked and walked the opposite direction.

~Kai's POV~

She amuses me. Why I wonder…that feeling again…love. It finally came to me. The thought of it sounds good when you know the person you like is good at heart. That's what Emily is. I know she is. I finally realized that after she came over my house. I didn't notice her at school much, probably why I didn't see her sooner.

I headed downstairs and went out the back of the school. A limo waited for me as I got in. I laid my head back and entwined my fingers behind it. I felt really good about what I just did. Everything seemed to fall out and my gut was left with empty space. After telling her to go out with me, it filled up again. But not bad things. Good things. One of them being love.


Meanwhile…


~Normal POV~

Emily walked out of the school, almost skipping the whole way out. Mariah saw her like this and she raised an eyebrow. She ran quickly over to Emily in a confused state.

 "Are you okay? It looks like you've been hit in the head with a cement block."

 "I'm fine. Are you fine? I am SO fine."

 "…why were you in there so long?"

Emily snapped out of her trance and started to think up lies. None of them seemed usable. She had to tell the truth. Nothing else would let her lie now.

 "Uhh…it had something to do with…Kai."

 "KAI!? What did he do to you?! He didn't try anything did he?! I'm gonna kick his ass right now…"

 "Mariah! Mariah…it was a good thing. A really good thing."

 "What is it!? Spit it out before I go crazy."

 "He…asked me out."

~Emily's POV~

Mariah stopped abruptly on the sidewalk, a block from my house. I waved a hand in front of her eyes, but nothing made her even blink.

 "Mariah?"

 "This is…………GREAT!!!!!!!!!"

Her response almost ended me on the ground. Her voice was so loud, it would wake up the heaviest sleeper alive.

 "Now we can go on double dates, and hang out at the mall…"

 "Yeah…Kai mentioned that…"

 "I feel so happy for you! I told you that make over would do you some good."

 "Yeah. It did…or I think it did."

We laughed the rest of the way to my house and talked about what we were planning to do together, including Ray and Kai.
