How To Marry A Millionaire

Step 9

Emily's POV

**

The ride home was quiet,not awkward quiet,but somehow i feel relaxed and comfortable. My heart is still hammering against my chest reminding me that it loved the kiss that Jake and i shared a while ago.

My mind reminded me of the amazing warm and alive feeling that i felt as Jake planted the kiss on me and my hands automatically found its way to my lips. I felt thankful for the darkness around us as blush burned its way onto my cheeks.

Never in a million years have i imagined my first kiss to go like this, never in a billion years have i imagined that my first kiss will land on someone who have so much of a talent being a dickhead.

I playfully shoot Jake one of my annoyed glares.He is so annoyingly sweet... my eyes rolled down his manly neck, broad shoulders and landed on his royal blue shirt. I suddenly have a strong urge to jump on him,rip his shirt open and lick the contents inside.

Jesus christ Emily! Where's you manners?!

Ohh its already on its way to Jupiter and never coming back,lucky me!

"Happy with your imaginations huh?" My eyes snapped up to see a huge mocking smirk spreaded charmingly across Jake's face. Why does he always catch me checking him out ?! Am i really so bad at it?

I turned my face away from him and pretend that im interested in the view outside the car window as i felt the blush that i previously had grew even more on my cheeks.

"Shut up" i mumbled softly.When Jake didnt reply,i glanced towards him,just in time to see the smirk that was plastered on his face spread even more,

I felt my stomach got warmer as my eyes greedily took in his gorgeous smile.Such amazing feeling. I tried to stop myself from letting out a grin only to realise how dark it is. I felt relieved for the second time since the ride home as i let out the grin slightly.

I cant even recall the last time someone made me have so much feelings stirring inside this tiny little body of mine since my mother left because of how much of a pain in the ass my father was.My heart started to ache again as thoughts of the last time hearing them scream at each other filled my mind.

*Flashback*

"Why cant you just get your ass off the computer for five minutes and make sure the kids have something to eat? THATS NOT EVEN DIFFICULT !" my mother stood infront of my dad,crossing her arms and glaring at him.

"Then why can't you get it done?" He asked, taking a sip of coffee that my mother prepared for him earlier and resumed busily punching his laptop keyboard with a huge frown on his forehead without even glancing up at her.

My eight years old sisters,Ashley and Gladice,along with the five years old me,woke up by the noise of our parents.My sisters silently signal me to keep quiet as they climbed out of their beds and moved to the door of our room and opened it ajar, trying to listen clearer.I rubbed my eyelids that were heavy from sleeping, and followed them to the door.

"Ha! " one of mother's bitter laughs echoed from the kitchen. "You ALWAYS blame me on everything, Mark! Its like you dont give a single of your precious shit about this family! OUR family! " mother's voice came out shaky.

None of them spoke for a minute..Only the sound of the plunging of keyboard and clicking of computer mouse differ the house from absolute silence. Mother obviously took this chance to argue further, "I know you are working hard for mother's hospital fees and i am working very hard myself, but since you are the one who is working at home,can you please just at the very least make sure the kids didnt go hungry ? I'm not home most of the time but you are. SO PLEASE! " my mother pleaded,
