Emily's P.O.V
I looked at him in awe.
Did he really just say all of that? Does he really know? This can't be... I always wear long sleeves, and I rarely wear shorts... How could he possibly know?
"How do you know?" I spoke up after what seemed like forever, looking right at him. I couldn't read his face.. There was so much mixed emotion, and uncertainness... Like he wanted to take his words back, and lock them up forever.
But he couldn't.
"It's nothing really..you just don't know how to hide them. Your long sleeves will ride up when you go to reach something, and you wear pajama shorts when you go to sleep.. It's like you wanted me to see, and I did. I didn't want to say anything because I didn't want you to get mad at me." He looked at me with worry in his eyes. I did the one thing I knew to do.
I hugged him.
I hugged him so tight, that it was hurting my arms. He was so shocked at first, and finally got his train of thought back. "Wait, why are you hugging me?" I just closed my eyes, and sighed very heavily. "Because someone finally noticed them. I have been dropping hints to my mom for almost a year now... She still hasn't noticed. I feel like a huge ass weight was lifted from my shoulders just because someone finally cared enough to notice."
I felt incredibly better about the whole situation. He hugged me back, and gently whispered. "I'll always care, Emily. Don't ever think about leaving me, because I won't let you."
After we pulled ourselves together, we finally finished the walk to the nearest shop to get something to eat. I know now, that I think I have someone to love.
(Really sorry that this is a very short chapter. I didn't mean for it to be, but it is. It gets better I promise! Hope you enjoy!xx)
