"So what college are you planning to go to?" Emma wondered, mixing her smoothie with a straw.

"I'm not sure if I want to go to college. I'm planning to join the marines," Jax responded.

"Wow. I mean, that's...wow." Emma nodded with wide eyes. Jax offered a smile.

Her cheeks flushed a bright red again. He was just so cute. Man, she wished he'd just ask her to be his girlfriend already. But Emma knew better. He probably didn't even like her in that way.

"So, Emma. We haven't been able to get to know each other," he began. She nodded. "So, what's your favorite color?"

Emma giggled. "Red. What about you?"

"I'm into pastel colors mostly." He nodded. "But if I had to choose one...blue."

"Wow." She nodded slowly. "Are you into drawing?"

"Sketching and painting, mostly. I used to make maps when I was little."

"Maps?" Emma was shocked by that. He looked more like a blueprint maker. Or maybe a mechanic. She never thought of sketching or painting. "That's amazing."

He laughed. "Thanks. But I don't make them anymore."

She nodded slowly. "So, Jax, tell me your life story." She smiled at him.

He raised his eyebrows. "Life story?"

She pulled a strand of curled hair behind her ear. "Yes sir."
