Hating Emilia

08

-Ethan Hernandez-

I know for a fact I'm not the only one who hates Delaney. Not only does he get on my nerves, he's just a fucking creep.

I'm not one to have the need to punch a teacher, but he's the one teacher I would punch.

Him trying to get Emilia to go in his class to 'help' her with a lesson plan. Bull fucking shit.

Staring at her while she walked up the stairs, really pissed me off.

I have work, and unfortunately Cassie has to come with me, since my parents decided to go to work.

I'll also have to figure out what to get her for food, I help Cassie get in my car, and help her with the seatbelt before going to the driver side.

Cassie mostly talks about her day at school while I drive, I help her out of the car and we walk in the cafe.

She sits at the table she always does, which helps me keep an eye on her.

I make sure Cassie gets her homework done while I work, if she needs help, I help her.

"Ethan." I hear, I force myself to not groan out of annoyance "yes?" I ask

"I thought I told you to stop bringing your sister here." My boss complains, "no one was able to watch her." I say

"Figure something out, otherwise I'll start taking it out of your pay check." My boss grits

He's another person I'd like to punch right now, I stop thinking about him and continue my shift

I look up and a familiar girl walks in on her phone before looking up at me, she gives me a soft smile

"Hey freckles"

"Hey, Ethan." Emilia says walking towards me "I didn't know you worked here." She says

I shrug "yeah, only when I don't have football practice or tutoring sessions with you." I say

Emilia nods her head before looking at the menu "can I get a small latte?" She asked I nodded

"For here?" I asked, she nodded "I'm gonna do some school work." She says and I nodded

I start making her latte as she goes to sit down, I'm surprised she's not drinking a Celsius, it's good to know she doesn't drink just those.

I also hope she drinks water rather than just energy drinks.

I hand Emilia her drink "you know, you should drink water more." I say, Emilia looks up at me "I'm sorry?" She asks

"You should drink water more often, Emilia." I say, she tilts her head, gives me an innocent smile then says.

"I don't think I'm gonna take advice from someone who's failing almost every class."

For a girl who's nice to everyone, she's got a fucking attitude.

"Oh really?" I say tilting my head "sorry- was that mean?"   She asks, I shake my head "no offense taken, freckles." I say making her smile softly.

Her eyes flicker lower. "Who's that?" She asked, my eyes leave her face and I stare at Cassie who's standing by my side.

"My little sister." I said, Emilia looks at me "how come she's here with you?" She asked "had to keep an eye on her." I said

"What's wrong Cass?" I asked "I don't know how to do this question." She mumbles "if you want I can help her? She can stay with me too if you want?" Emilia offers

I look down at Cassie to see if she's okay, she looks at Emilia who gives her the softest smile ever "who is she?" Cassie whispers to me.

I look at Emilia then back at Cassie "a friend." I say "is she nice?" Cassie asked "very nice." I tell her
