Earth To Echo

Answers

Emma's POV:
I watched as Alex moved his body into a sitting position on his bed, making room for me to sit.

I waited for him to give me permission, cause I didn't want to seem even more intrusive than I already was. I mean I practically barged in here telling him we were going to talk.

I noticed Alex's face seemed kind of nervous. Why was he nervous?
My thoughts were interrupted by Alex telling me I could sit down.

Gladly, I took a seat next to him. When I sat down, I sat closer to him that I meant to.
Our legs were practically pressed against each other. Alex's eyes moved down to look at them.
"Uh... Sorry." I tell him as I scoot about a couple  inches away from him.

We sat in our places in silence for a minute.
Well this is just a bit awkward.
"So... About yesterday. What was that about?" I asked straight forward.

Alex's POV:
I just stared at the wall trying to come up an answer for her question.

Nothing.
I have absolutely no idea of what to tell her with out actually telling her.
I fall backwards on my bed so i am laying down.
I glance over at Emma to see her with a questioning look, staring at me.
Running my hands over my face, I sighed.
"Emma, honestly I don't know how to explain it." I tell her truthfully.
When all I hear is silence, I slowly started to continue.
"Without being specific I'll tell you." Then I just close my eyes. It will be easier if I can't see her reaction.

"Okay" She responded plain and simple.
"We did something, and that something made me realize that I could feel something. And honestly it scares me to think about how it would make me feel, so I made it so I don't feel that way." I rush out.

Silence.

That's all I hear.

Then I feel the bed move beside me. I don't feel the bed rise up on her half, instead the bed feels concentrated like she's laying beside me.

I open my eyes and peer beside me.
Sure enough, Emma is laying beside me with her eyes trained to the ceiling.

"So, because we, as in me and you, did something, and you realized you might feel something that you didn't want. You, then, thought it was necessary to act like a jerk to me?" Emma questioned.

I honestly couldn't come up with a response. The way she restated it made me feel idiotic for acting that way.

"You know, you could have just pretended and act like nothing ever happened that day if you had to." Emma told me.

She rested her hand next to mine on the bed, our knuckles barely grazing each other.

We both just laid there in silence. I sat up and got my ipod. Going to my music I set the volumed low and set it back onto the bed side table.

Laying back on the bed, my hands rested next to hers again. We just laid there listening to the music. After a couple of minutes I felt Emma's fingers start to move against mine.

One finger of hers, playing with mine. Then the next finger, the the next. Until all of our fingers were hooked together.

I heard the sound of movement and saw Emma facing me. I looked over and just stared at her. A smile was playing on her lips.

Thats when I realized that I started to feel that tingling feeling once again in my stomach.

So, I think I will start expanding the time in between updates. But I will be updating more than one chapter at a time.

What are your Halloween plans?

I might be going to a bonfire with some friends to some country land she owns.

ENJOY, COMMENT, VOTE. Also comment on whether or not I should update one chapter often, or update every once and a while with like five chapters?

Bye☺
