Coffee Beans

I was up late at night revising for this half percent of my grade test, which we had in chemistry tomorrow. The girls said I had it all in my brain already but I need to pass this test, no not pass; be the highest mark in the class. Jumping as I heard the sound of something crashing, looking around my room thinking something might've fallen but nothing had. Standing up from my bed, I grabbed my ruler as a weapon before making my way out of my room.

Moving around like someone in spy movie, before reaching the staircase seeing no one, I quickly went down them taking them by two. Using the front doors peephole to see if anyone was out there but I couldn't really see anything, moving into the lounge room to find no one or anything had been moved. Continuing on into the kitchen I found someone standing there trying to clean up the coffee beans they had spilt. They were obviously at female because I could see the outline of their bra, and her hair was too dark to be Melissa or Mum. Moving slowly around the kitchen bench that was in the middle, I got to the fridge and was able to see from a better angle and who I saw shocked me.

I breathed out "Emily," I slide down onto the floor next to her to help clean up.

Emily said "I was trying to be quiet but I failed," I could hear in her voice she had been crying or was going to cry, I could also smell the alcohol on her.

I reply with "It's okay Emily, my family are all heavy sleepers and they'll be none the wiser tomorrow when they have their coffee." Emily just nodded her head and continued cleaning the coffee beans up. After cleaning up all the coffee beans, I took Emily's hand and led her quietly back up to my room.

In my room I sat her down on the bed and sat down next to her, I asked "Why are you here Emily?"

Emily replied with "Couldn't stand being in my own house."

"Why not?"

"Parents, found out."

"Found out about what Emily? You're not making any sense."

"My Mum found my box of pamphlets about LGBT, she asked and I told her."

"You told your Mum, you're gay," Emily nodded her head and I wrapped her into my arms. I was so proud of her for telling her Mum instead of running away from the truth like she had done so many other times.

I asked "How did they take it?"

"Mum freaked out, slapped me, went to do it again but Dad stopped her, they yelled, sent me to my room, argue, Mum left us, Dad sad but doesn't want me around that type of person and is accepting it."

"Oh Em, no wonder you needed to get out of that but why did you drink?

"Need to forget, broke my family up."

"Emily, you did not break up your family, you Mum did that not you." I watched as Emily the strongest person I knew broke down in my lap, I held onto her tightly as
possible without hurting her. I rubbed my head and down her back hoping it was soothingly and I also kissed the top of her head.

Emily then said "Love you," I sat back from her really quickly like she had burnt me.

Emily sat up and I asked "What did you say?"

"I love you," she then leant forward and pecked my lips.

I say "That just the alcohol talking," Emily shook her head really fast which made her feel dizzy, which I thought was so adorable and cute.

Emily then said "I love you more than a friend and it's not the alcohol talking, I just never knew how to tell you in the right way."

I asked "Are you sure it's not the alcohol?"

"Yes I'm sure, why won't you believe?"

"I do believe you Emily, I just want to make sure before I do this," I leant forward and kissed Emily fully on the lips. It was nothing like her peck, it was a full on mouth kiss with passion, heat, needing and desperate. Emily taste good, she had the mix of alcohol, strawberries and chocolate, which was a weird taste but put it all together with Emily and I was a very happy person.

Emily broke away and said "I love you Spencer Hastings."

"I love you too Emily Fields," I went to kiss her again and I thought Emily was too since she leant in but she fell onto me and I heard snoring from her. Somehow managing to get us into a comforter precision, with Emily holding me tightly against her while she continued to sleep and me snuggled up to a her side.

Leaning up I kissed her cheek and said again "I love you Emily Fields, I hope you remember this in the morning," I then closed my eyes and fell into a peaceful sleep of Emily and I together.

The End.
