Chapter 5
Emma's POV
I woke up and looked at my clock, 8:30. I had an hour and a half to get ready before Jacob got here. Feelings were rushing through me all morning; excitement, happiness, nervousness, worry, fears. It took me forever to pick out what to wear. And I finally picked out a red v-neck, long-sleeved shirt, and dark skinny jeans. Just before 10 o'clock, I got a text from Jacob.
"Bring stuff for snow, and a change of clothes. "
I ran upstairs and grabbed my warm coat and snow boots. Then grabbed a pair of black skinny jeans and a white, long-sleeved, v-neck, sweater-top. I heard Jacob's car pull up. I ran downstairs just as the doorbell rings. I opened the door.
"Hey," was the first thing Jacob said. I laughed.
"So where are we going today?" I asked.
"It's a surprise." He said.
We walked out the door, and there was a patch of ice on the pathway. I slipped and fell on my butt.
"Please be careful."
He helped me up, my sleeve some how rolled up, and Jacob saw the scars.
"Emma? What is that?" He asked grabbing my hand so you could see the scars. Oh, shit. What do I say?
"Um… It's nothing." I said, pulling my hand away.
"Emma, please, what is it?" he said again.
"Jacob, I just lost my mom. I just moved to a new place, and I'm going to go to a new school, I'll have to make new friends. This is all really hard on me." I tell him.
"So you're hurting yourself?"
"Jacob, you don't know what it's like for me! Can we just forget about this and have a good day?"
"I'll leave it. For now. Let's go have some fun."
