Last Chances

Awkward

Holly shouted down that dinner was ready. She had made the best ever roast dinner.  Emily was sitting across the dinner table from me. Emily offers to clear the table and put the plates into the dishwasher. I reach for a couple of plates carefully placing the plates in my hand and walking over to the dishwasher. Peter is so attractive, God. 

"I think we need to talk" he says 

"About what?" i ask 

"Us" he says 

"What about us?"

"Are you being serious Emily?"

"What do you want me to say Peter? we kissed now deal with it! It didn't mean anything as I know I don't mean anything to you and probably never will, and we should forget that it ever happened, okay?" Emily says trying her best to make sure he doesn't know her true feelings. 

The kiss was the best thing I had ever had but I don't want him to know that thats how I feel.

"Why do you have to be such a bitch sometimes Emily?"

"Me the bitch are you kidding me Peter" - Emily replies frustrated, before attempting to walk past him but obviously being the person he is he blocks my path by extending his arm and putting it around my waist. 

Peter spins me round so that I am facing him. He gently pushes me towards the island in the middle of the kitchen, he steps forward and closes the distance between us with his body. My lower back is pressed against the countertop whilst Peter holds both sides of my waist. 

For some strange reason he pulled away, there was something in his eyes that made me feel as if there were people at the door. She was so embarrassed, she went bright red. Lily Peter's mum and Holly Belrose and Rebecca was standing at the kitchen door like statues. 

Peter places his hand over his mouth in shock as to what his mother had just saw. His mother looks excited and happy. His lips turn into a slight smirk . 

"Am I missing something?" asks Lily Peters 

"I think we should come back later" she soon says after.

"You two can take as long as you like....... cleaning up"

Peters jaw dropped- Did my own mother just give me the go ahead...Oh my God. 

Emily started to speak. "I don't know if this is weird or mad,but ever since you have moved in with us I can't stop thinking about you to be honest, I don't know why. I took you to Melissa's gravestone I have never done that with anyone else. I took you to the secret wooden shed in the garden all because I trusted you. I kissed you because I wanted to. You were something completely different and I respect you so much."

"I am so grateful you shared so many amazing moments with me and you were able to open up to me Emily... Thats why I like you..."
