Acceptable Movement (Iconic/ToBeOne/Castronovo FanFic)

Chapter Ten

Emily's POV

After the movie was done, we ordered Chinese.

Vin took a quick trip to the store to get some drinks.

As soon as he stepped out the door I ran to my room.

I stared at my pillow.

Did he want me to see it now?

Was he waiting for after we ate?

Or was it just a trick?

I decided to to check, and I lifted up my pillow. 

There was a small box.

Just as I was about to open it, I heard the front door open.

"So, I got Arizona, soda, and lemonade!" I heard him yell.

I quickly threw the pillow on the box and ran to the kitchen.

"That sounds fruity!" I exclaimed, pretending to be interested.

"Well, I would hope so! The bottle says it's extra..lemony." He laughed to himself.

I nervously chuckled and my mind dazed off.

What could be in the box?

I honestly needed him out of the house.

"Um Vin?"

He looked up from his phone and smiled.

"Yeah?"

"I'm um, I'm not feeling too great.."

His smile dropped, but he tried to hide his disappointment.

"I could go get some medicine, or make some soup?" He made his way to my pantry.

"Oh uh no! That's fine!"

He turned around and a wave of confusion washed over him.

"I wouldn't want to get you sick, you should leave."

I tried to push him out the door, but he stopped in the doorway.

"What's going on?" He asked as he crossed his arms and leaned against the door frame.

"Nothing, I just don't feel good, maybe we could hang out tomorrow!" 

I wasn't lying, tomorrow WAS Saturday, so we most likely would hang out.

He nodded and walked out.

I stared at him as he walked down the street, after a couple minutes, all I could make out was his silhouette.

I bolted to my room and lifted up my pillow.

There was the box.

Should I open it?

I felt like I shouldn't..

But my curiosity got the best of me and I opened it.
