Chapter 26

Thanks JennDur for beta'ing for me.


Our night out was wonderful. We went out to dinner in Port Angles and then stopped at the record store to check out a local band. Before we left to drive home, we stopped at an all night coffee shop and grabbed some hot chocolate and cookies.

Overall, it was the perfect night and I didn't want it to end, but as we pulled into my driveway I realized I was looking forward to this part of the night a little bit. If only to get a kiss goodnight. Just thinking about it had me wanting to run to the front door just to get to it quicker.

"So," Emmett said, holding me close. "I had a great time tonight."

"Me, too. I haven't smiled this much since the last time we went out."

"Me neither. But my goal is to make you smile even more next time. Think I can do it?" he asked, staring at my lips and moving closer with each word.

"Oh, yeah. You'll have no trouble." By my last word our lips were touching.

When we finally broke apart, my lips felt swollen, but so damn amazing. He gave me one more peck, and softly said, "Goodnight, beautiful, I'll call you tomorrow."


See you (the few of you who are reading this and I love for that) tomorrow.
