Title:Complication's
Authors Note: Chapter two and drama starts
Point of View: Emmett's
I drove up the driveway, and parked my bike next to Bay's studio. I thought about Bay's all last night and the nightbefore, it seemed. I still had paint on my hands from messing with her painting, which she seemed to love. I remembered our 'conversation' from Wednesday. I smiled as I took my helmet off, waiting for Daphne to come down. Bay had taken a ride with Toby because she had a math test, and couldn't chance being late. She said I could drive her Monday, and I agreed. Friday was going to be a long day, because I was actually going to ask Daphne if it was weird if I asked Bay out, on a date.
She walked down her steps and smiled at me, I waved back. She came up to me and held out her hand, to which I put my helmet in. She clicked it on and I put my own back on as I started the bike up, and sped out of her driveway.
We parked in a spot and de-mounted the bike, she took her helmet, and was walking to her locker, when I tapped her shoulder. She turned toward me, and raised her eyebrows in question. I pointed to the helmet and held out my hand in a sheepish way.
You need the helmet? She asked me and she was confused. I felt like a jerk, but I have plans after school.
Yeah, I have plans after school. I signed back to her, she put her hands on her hips, and I rubbed the back of my neck.
Why can't I tag along? We usually do homework at your house anyway. I sighed and looked at her.
I have plans with Bay. She is tutoring me in math, and I have to pick her up. I said, kind of. She stared at me with big eyes, surprised.
What is going on between you and her, Emmett? She signed at me, her 'words' were forceful, but she gave me my helmet. I placed it inside my own before shrugging. She hit my shoulder and I met her eyes, which were mad. I don't like this, Emmett. I don't want you with her. She signed to me, which made me mad.
Since when do you control me, Daphne? I'm not a puppet. I like Bay! I was wrong about hearing and deft not mixing, they can, and we do. Bay isn't a bad person, she is . . . amazing. I said, trailing off into thought, until Daphne hit me again.
She forced me to break up with Liam; I will force her to break up with you. I'm the only one who she can relate with. She signed at me and I looked at her disbelief.
Would you hurt me? That would hurt me. And of course she made you break up with Liam, he is a loser. She even dated him, she would know. I said crossing my arms, my face was set in a scowl.
Do you hear yourself? She can't even sign! You two can't talk without a piece of paper or a game of charades! She said, trying to force it down my throat.
I'm teaching her for her help in math. I'm even going to ask her out, so drop it! I said, enhancing the sign for 'drop it' with force. I started to walking away, but she tugged on my shoulder, turning me back around.
I don't want her to hurt you. She said, reigning in her anger, replacing it with a protectiveness. Why did you never ask me out? She signed and her hands sad. I sighed internally, and signed back:
We missed our chance, now I like Bay, and she likes me. I said, heading off to my locker.
I don't want you with her, Emmett. What if she hurts you? She said as we arrived to my locker. I opened it and got out everything I would need till lunch. I turned to face her, her red hair was moving with the breeze. Her shirt was purple with and floral design and a white cardigan, and blue jeans. I thought about it for a second. All I had to do was say yes. She was the girl I was describing a few weeks back. She was deft, beautiful, smart, funny, and she did like my bike. Why was it so hard then? All I could think about was if I said yes, was that it would hurt Bay. I didn't want to hurt Bay. Sure, I didn't want to hurt Daphne, but something . . . just . . . changed.
She won't! Everyone thinks she hurts the guys. Did you know Liam broke up with her because of the Switched thing she couldn't tell anyone about? (A/N: I'm just guessing, sorry if I'm wrong) He call it the 'Bay Kennish' drama. Ty ran off to the army and didn't tell Bay till basically the day off. She is not going to hurt me, and I'm not going to hurt her. I signed, she stared at me shocked.
How did you know all that? I didn't know all of that. She signed in shocked stupor.
You learn a lot from Bay if you give her the chance to open up. I closed my locker after putting the helmets inside. She was looking off into space, thinking, I guess. I'm sorry, Daphne. I signed before walking away to first period.
I walked out of the school, my helmets on my hand and a skip in my step. I looked to my left before hopping of of the side walk and saw Daphne getting into a car, some dude with shaggy blonde hair was driving. As I looked closer I saw it was Wilkie (A/N that is how you spell it, right?), from poker night and the band. She laughed at something he said as she closed the door. I shook my head, smirking. I quickly crossed the street and hopped on my bike, and placed my helmet on my head. I had ate lunch at the fountain after Daphne's confession. I avoided her for the rest of the day, and now I was going to surprise Bay and ask her out when we got to her place. I started up the bike, and raced out of the school campus, and onto the road.
When I got to her school, it wasn't out yet and so I was left waiting for 10 minutes. I took pictures of the campus while waiting. I didn't mind so much when she came walking out of the building with her friends and she didn't notice me right away, but others did.I kept taking pictures, till the started pointing me out. Her friends were suddenly talk animatedly about something, they then pointed at me, causing Bay to turned her head and look down at me. She cocked her head to the side, and smiled a smile that said 'what are you doing here, sneaky boy.', one where it pulled more at one corner and not so much at the other. I ducked my head sheepishly and crossed my arms over my chest, deciding that it was well worth the wait. She said bye to the group of people, and raced down the steps, tackling me in a hug, causing us both to laugh.
"What are you doing here?" She said signing 'what', 'you', and 'here' when we released each other from the hug. I motioned to my bike and held up the second helmet. She looked at me with raised eyebrows and a lopsided grin, taking it from my hand. He hair was pinned back like most days, and she had on her normal school uniform.
You were right. I signed to her. She thought for a second before replying.
"I usually am. About what this time?" She said not signing, because of her hold the helmet, and she wasn't that good at signing. I thought for a moment before signing Daphne. She bit her lip and a fire in her eyes appeared but then quickly disappeared as she said: "And what did she say?"
I looked down looking at her under my eyelashes, before looking at her fully and I motioned to her, she said "me." I nodded then motioned to me, "you." Then the space in between us hoping she understood, she took a second before replying, "this?" I nodded. Then I made the sign for finished, she understood. She kept twirling the helmet in her hands.
Is that what you want? I signed to that her, and she shook her head no, fastening the helmet on her head. Me either. I sign and she grinned.
Wanna go? She asked me and I nodded. I hopped on then she hopped on then we speeded off.
Since we had gotten to her house, we either dance to some song that was on the tape Regina had received from Angelo, tutored each other, or she painted while I read a book, or I walked around the studio while she painted. Right now, I was walking around the room as Bay worked on her latest painting. She had some up on the walls and some were leaned against the wall. In a space near the door, that painting was particularly interesting because it was our painting from Wednesday. I stomped my feet twice, causing Bay to turn, really fast, around. She looked around before her eyes landed on the painting.
Is that okay? Do you want it down? She signed badly, but I got the memo. I shook my head no and smiled, waving my hands around like I was excited. "Well, it's ours. I love it." She said pointing to both of us and then using the sign for love. I smiled as she walked over to kiss me.
I leaned down, one hand resting on her hip, while the other was curled around her neck. She curled her hands around my neck and pulled herself up to meet me. When we met it was like it hurt to take my eyes away from her curly black hair and her pale, smooth skin. Now I had a reason not to, because when our lips met, there were shivers down my back. I want to pull her closer but I didn't want to move so fast, so I let her go. I think she whined because, it looked like it and I said:
I'm going to take it slow. You're worth that. I signed at her, and after a moment, she smile, when me smiling back.
"Oh wow." Someone said at the door, we both spun around.
