Dakota's pov
"No no hon! Not like that! The punch here goes like this! " Mom came over and punched the bag.
" Oh god this is so hard! How did you get this strong anyway mom? " I groaned.
I've been practicing techniques of punching from the evening but still I got nowhere.
She chuckled. " You'll get a hang of it soon enough. Just know the magic words. "
" Magic Words? "
" Yup! " she said popping the 'p'.
"And what is it?""Practice makes perfect! " she grinned.
I made a blank face and aunt Emily chuckled seeing it. These were the magic words? I thought she was going to say something more special. Seeing my face she stuck out her tongue which made me smile.
" You're done for the day kiddo. You may now go home. " she said patting my back.
I nodded and went to the locker room to change. As I was changing my mind went in a panic mode. I was supposed to meet Emmet today and talk to him about what happened earlier. About the staring. Oh god. What if he gets hurt? What if he thinks I'm crazy? Or what if he thinks I'm being a paranoid?
I huffed in annoyance and got out of the locker room. Bidding goodbyes to mom and aunty Emily I headed towards mom's car to go where we were supposed to meet.
After about 10 mins I stood in front of the Mc Donalds with sweaty hands and equally panicked mind. I saw Emmet sitting in one of the tables waiting for me. The store wasn't crowded and I was glad about it. I made my way towards the doors and it opened with a 'cling' sound. Hearing my arrival Emmet's eyes shot up towards my direction and I waved at him nervously.
He smiled his usual smile and dragged out a chair for me to sit down.
"Being formal I see. " I teased him to lessen the tensed aura around me.
He chuckled. " Anything for the lady! "
I don't know if I'm assuming things or my mind is playing games but isn't he acting a bit more 'boyfriend' type?
I forced a smile at him.
The waitress came to take our orders. I wasn't really hungry and moreover I said my thoughts out loud.
" Don't you guys sell Crabby Patty? "
As soon as the words slipped out of my mouth I face-palmed myself.
The waitress looked at me like I was some sort of a lunatic.
" She means she wants a burger with extra cheese and the same for me with French fries. " Emmet ordered.
The waitress left and Emmet looked like he was about to burst out laughing.
" Seriously Dakota? Crabby Patty? You still watch SpongeBob? " he asked laughing.
" Yeah Yeah whatever. And moreover it's a universal show. Anyone can watch it. " I grumbled.
After laughing for a couple of minutes more he calmed down and stared at me with a serious look.
" So why weren't you present at my house when I woke up? "
I gulped. Oh god what should I answer?
" Well Emmet, I'll just tell you the truth because I don't really wanna make up any lame excuses. " I took a deep breath, " Yesterday night, I don't know why, but I felt something from you. Like, I caught you staring at me many times with those 'gooey-love' type emotions in your eyes and I didn't know what to do. I got scared and that's why sneaked out at the night to my house. "
I looked at Emmet to see him staring at me with a soft smile.
" Well, I guess you're right in your own part. Sorry for scaring you. " he chuckled.
" But what you saw was true. " he said holding my hand across the table. " I like you Dakota. From the very beginning. I don't even know since when but I just know I like you a lot. And I want to be more than just being your best friend. Only if you agree. "
I was shocked would be an understatement. I was literally paralysed in my seat. The thing which I feared the most was happening. Emmet has feelings for me..
The waitress came with our order and I was relieved for the distraction. We ate our food in silence and after that Emmet paid for the food.
We went outside and I could literally feel the tension lurking around us..
"You didn't answer my explanation Dakota. " he said softly looking at me.
" Huh? " I looked towards him.
" Do you feel the same? "
I asked myself the same question. Did I feel the same? Did I like him that way?
I looked at him to see his face turning into a sad smile. He was upset.
" It's okay Dakota. Good night. " he said and walked towards his bike.
Oh no. This was bad. I couldn't lose him.
" No wait! " I shouted.
He stopped in his tracks and turned towards me.
" I.. I feel the same. " I smiled. Oh god. My Insides were screaming in protest as I was lying. But I had to have him.
" Really? " his eyes brightened.
I smiled and nodded.
At least he's happy.
He gave a whoop of joy and picked me up in his arms circling us around!
" Yes!! Thank you so much Dakota. You made me the happiest person on earth today! " he said grinning.
I felt myself smiling with him. He's so happy? I guess maybe I can work this out.
He hugged me and I hugged him back.
Guess I've got myself a new Boyfriend.
" And so this happened. I didn't know what to do and that's why I said yes. " I said vomiting out everything to Adrian and Rosalie.
They both were looking at me with different expressions. Rosalie was grinning whereas Adrian had a 'Not so happy' expression on his face."Did I do something wrong Ady?" I asked.
He just frowned and sighed. "I don't know sis. You yourself said that you're not sure if you reflect his feelings. But then again.. It's your life. You make choices. I'll just stay with you and will always be there if you need me. "
I smiled and thanked my parents mentally to give me such an amazing brother.
The rest of the night passed with me and Rosalie talking about absolute nonsense.
Well who knew that more was going to happen in my life?
Next day
I entered the school with Adrian by my side. Emmet was out due to his football match and Rosalie had food poisoning. Ugh! The day is going to be utterly boring I just know it!
Adrian bid his goodbye to me and went towards his class while I went to mine. I went and sat at the last bench not caring about anything. Students filled the class soon and Mr Hall entered right after that.
"Students, we have a new student joining us today. So welcome him warmly. " he said.
I just yawned and looked at see a boy enter our class.
And it was not just a boy.
As soon as his eyes made contact with mine, my mouth hung open.
The new student was none other than the Annoying Greek God!A/n: Heya everyone! Sorry for the late update. I've been Hella busy and couldn't even log in to Wattpad.
But now here's the chapter!
Pic to the side ------>>> Emmet!
