A/N: You guys are great! Enjoy!!
Emile's POV
When I finished my lunch, I threw away my tray and sat back down, putting my hands in my lap. I watched out of the corner of my eye as Blaine put one of his hands under the table and rested it on my hands.
I involuntarily flinched at his icy touch, and he was about to pull his hand away when I clasped his hand in between my hands.
Alice, Rosalie, Jasper, and Emmett just looked at us, confused, and unaware of what was going on under the table.
"What?" I asked them.
They just shook their heads and resumed their conversation, leaving their lunches untouched.
Blaine's hand grasped one of mine so that our palms were facing each other, and our fingers were intertwined.
My heart sped up to an impossible speed as he used the fingers of his other hand to trace invisible lines on the back of my hand and up and down my arm.
The others glanced back at me, as if they had heard my heartbeat, and Blaine laughed.
The next morning, I woke up to a bright, sunny day. I went through the school day, as usual, and come lunch time, the Cullens weren't there.
I managed to find that girl Edward sat with, sitting with some students I recognized from my more advanced classes.
"Do you know where the Cullens are today?" I asked them.
"They go hiking on sunny days," the girl said. "I'm Bella, by the way."
"I'm Emile." I responded.
"So, you're Blaine's girlfriend?"
"Girlfriend? Who said that?"
"Edward."
"So, does you sitting with Edward make you his girlfriend?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.
"No, but—"
"Exactly my point." I finished.
Her friends looked at her, probably expecting a retort of some kind. It didn't come.
"Can I sit with you guys, today? I'd rather not sit at a table by myself," I asked after a minute.
"Yeah."
Wednesday was cloudy, again, and the Cullens were back.
"So where were you yesterday?" I asked Blaine as I sat down with my lunch.
"We were hiking. We like to take advantage of any sunny days we get, around here." He replied.
"Okay. How was it?" I asked. He waited a moment before answering.
"Sunny."
I laughed, and he smiled.
"Hey," I said, remembering my conversation with Bella the day before. "What did you tell Edward about us?"
"'Us,' who?" he asked.
"'Us,' as in 'me and you,'" I said.
"I didn't tell him anything." Blaine replied.
"That's weird…" I said, confused. "Edward told Bella I was your girlfriend."
"Aren't you?" he asked.
"You tell me."
At that point, he leaned in really close to me and whispered, "Do you wanna be?"
I didn't want to lie and say "no," so I settled for being bluntly honest.
"Yes." It came out barely audible, but he heard it and smiled.
Then he pulled back, and for the rest of lunch, we silently held hands under the table.
