I can't breathe as I watch Edd run from the room head back to the waiting room. The dork looks happy even though you can see the bags under his blue eyes.
"I take it that Emma is fine," I say walking back into the room.
"Yes, so sock-head is going to check on her," Eddy says, not looking up at me.
I nod and sit next to Nat and Wyatt. Everything seem messed up by the past that the dork and Emma kept hidden.
"Kevin, it'll be fine," I hear Nat say beside me.
I look up at him and sigh. He can't understand how much I care for the dork, and yet his past is getting in the way.
"Guys, you may go see Emma," I hear Mrs. Libra say.
I look over at her and smile before standing up. I follow Nat and Wyatt to Emma's room to see her slipping her shirt on. I can see a scar down the center of her back.
"What happened to your back?" Nat asks making me smack him on the head.
"Dude really?" I ask, looking at him like he's stupid.
"It's fine Kev, everyone will know sooner or later," Emma says smiling weakly. "It happened a few years ago when Eddward came down and visited me."
"We got in a car crash thanks to Dylan hitting one of my now- dead friend's car. I got out of the car with Edd, but he was bleeding on the head. We needed to get help for Edd. We were about to leave, but Dylan stopped us and pulled out a knife," Emma says frowning, "He was going to go after Eddward, but I stepped in the way and got the deep cut on my back."
I look over to see Edd shaking, before Emma pulled him ito her chest.
"But the police couldn't prove that he did anything I said, because the car he crashed into my friend's was a friend of his and was willing to go down for him," Emma says while growling. "I'll kill him the next time he comes after us."
I look over at Emma, she looks serious about what she said.
"Why? Then you'll be just like him," Edd says, pulling away from her a bit to see her.
I could understand what the dork is feeling. He didn't want to lose a friend, because of some stupid guy.
"But Eddward, he threatened your life again, and I promised your parents that I would keep you safe," she says, placing a hand on his face.
"And I promised your's," he says, standing up away from her. "I can fight too and you know it very well."
"That was only when you had to Eddward," she says getting mad, "when was the last time you fought someone?"
The dork fell silent and looked down at the ground.
"See? I'm the only one who can fight still an-"
"No you're not!" Edd yells, looking at her with angry blue eyes, "You again are lucky to live from the injuries Dylan gave you!"
Emma sat there staring at him surprised before tears start to fall from her violet eyes. Edd watches her before feeling sorry and walking over to her.
"Oh Em, I never wanted to make you cry," he says, sitting on the bed next to her.
"I-It's fine E-Eddward," she says still crying pretty hard. "You're right."
Sorry I haven't really updated my stories I've been really busy. School and trying to get into college takes a lot of my time. I hope you understand, thanks!
