Laurence
Crap. It slipped out. How the hell did I let that slip out? I suddenly felt the urge to either hide or bash my head against a brick wall I could feel the blood rising up my face. I hastily let go of Kier and turned around. “Errm I th-think we need um we need BACON yeah lots and lots of bacon” I told him walking off in completely the wrong direction. “Laurence why would you want bacon?” I could hear Kier asking as he followed me “Because its yummy that’s why” I told him “But Bevers, you’re a veggie” I stopped mid step. “Oh yeah I am aren’t I” I chuckled nervously. “Yes yes you are” he laughed walking over and grabbing my hand. “You know what we don’t have enough of …ALCOHOL” he pulled on my hand and dragged me over to the alcohol.
Luke
I woke up with a start. I’d felt like I had been falling. Turns out I had. I’d managed to wake up before I’d pulled both myself and Emmy onto the floor. However heroic I felt I was now stuck. Brilliant. I bet Batman never did anything like this. Damn, how was I supposed to get up without waking Emmy? I looked over at her and smiled. She looked peaceful. And that was when I noticed my next problem. The arm I had to free was under her head and she was sleeping close to the edge of the sofa. So if I was to pull my arm out quickly and let myself fall I would no doubt pull her off the sofa. Damn. I heard movement from somewhere in the flat. I twisted my head to try and see if someone was coming down the hall. I couldn’t see anyone. I looked back at Emmy. I sighed and looked up at the ceiling. I really hope she forgives me for this. I placed both my feet on the floor, lowered myself closer to the floor and then yanked my arm out from under her. Her eyes in shock and she let out a soft squeak. I felt my back hit the floor and then Emmys small body colliding with my chest. I felt all the air leave my body. “Ow” I whined quietly. “You can say that again” I heard Emmy wince from on top of me. I opened my eyes to see Emmy’s bright green ones staring into mine. “Luuke how exactly did we end up on the floor?” she asked here gaze never leaving mine. I giggled nervously. “Well I may have almost fallen off the sofa” she raised an eyebrow “That doesn’t really explain how I ended up down here does it?” I grinned up at her gripping her waist in my hands. “Well it was either both of us fall or I was stuck with only you anchoring me to the sofa by one arm and my other supporting me, I voted for the former and seeing as you were asleep you don’t get a vote.” I told her sticking my tongue out. She rolled her eyes at me “Very mature Luke” she told me copying my action. “Now who’s being immature?” I asked her gently tickling her sides. She squealed and tried to get away but I wrapped one arm around her waist and continued my torture. Somehow I ended up hovering over her. Her face was bright red and she had a wide smile on her face. I slowed my onslaught on her sides and she opened her eyes and looked up at me. Her emerald eyes were twinkling. As I continued to look down at her I felt my heartbeat speed up. Surely she could feel it her hands were placed on my chest. “Luke?” she asked softly and raised her left hand to my cheek. I leant into her touch, revelling in the way it sent sparks though me. I closed my eyes and sighed. When I opened them again our noses were touching. It felt like time stood still, cliché I know but it did. “Emmy” I breathed her name watching her shiver slightly. I heard a cough from the doorway just like that the spell was broken. Stood in the doorway was Shane. “I hope I’m not interrupting it’s just your kinda blocking the path to the kitchen.” he said blushing furiously. He was probably as bright as Emmy was and how I felt. I quickly scrambled off of Emmy and to the opposite side of the room. Emmy sat up and scooted towards the wall pulling her knees up and wrapping her arms around her legs and resting her forehead on her knees. Shane scurried past not looking at either of us.
Emmy
I buried my face into my knees and tried to calm my racing heart. I peeked up through my curtain of hair at Luke across the room. He was sat staring blindly at the floor in front of him. I studied him whilst he was distracted. His hair was, as always, trapped under his green hat. He was stroking his beard as well without realising. Is it weird that I’ve always kinda wanted to stroke it? I mean it looks soft not like some beards I’ve seen. I tilted my head to the side. He kinda has a beard lke a gnome. I couldn’t help but giggle at the image conjured up by that. In fact I didn’t giggle at all I full on laughed. I mean wouldn’t you if the image you had was of Luke dressed in up as a gnome complete with fishing rod and pointy hat. I must have looked hysterical. I somehow ended up lying on my side clutching my stomach, tears streaming down my face as I silently laughed. “Emmy?” Luke asked shocked and confused. “Emmy are you alright?” I tried nodding but couldn’t. “Emmy?!” Luke asked coming over and kneeling beside me “Emmy answer me whats wrong?” I tried to tell him but all I managed to get out was “Gnome” the look of confusion deepened on his face. “Shane?” he called not once looking away from me. Shane appeared in the doorway mouth filled with food. He took one look at me and swallowed quickly “Luke what did you do to her?” he asked placing the plate with the rest of his food on the table. “Nothing she just suddenly started laughing all I can get out of her is ‘gnome’” he told him. at this Barrone peered over the top of his glasses at him. “Gnome? Are you sure? It wasn’t anything like no?” he asked. Luke shook his head still not looking away from my face. “Nope ‘gnome’” at this I proceeded to laugh harder. Shanes brow furrowed before smoothing out a smile on his face. “I’ll be back in a minute” he said standing up and walking away. “Emmy what is wrong with you?” I tried to calm my breathing again I succeeded in getting “You..Gnome” out before falling back into hysterical laughter. “Luke it appears Emmy has gone into shock, why I’m not entirely sure but this is the only solution I can think of right now to calm her hysterics. You may want to step back.” Luke frowned but did as he was asked. Shane then pulled a glass of water out from behind his back and then dumped it onto my head. I gasped as the coldness hit me. I started spluttering as I had managed to inhale some of the water. Luke rushed forward “Jesus Shane why’d you do that?” he shrugged “It worked didn’t it” and then walked out of the room taking his sandwich with him. I felt my teeth start chattering against each other. “Cold” I muttered. “I know come lets go get you warmed up.” he pulled me up and wrapped me in a hug. I started pushing away from him “No dont hug me I’ll get you all wet.”he responded by pulling me closer “I don’t care” I finally relented and wrapped my arms around him feeling safe, warm and loved? i sighed happily as Luke buried his face into my hair.
Luke
I lifted Emmy and carried her through to the bathroom. I placed her down on the floor and started up the shower. “Get in I’ll go and get you some clean and warm clothes and a towel.” I toldher as I started out the room, I felt her hand on my forearm I looked down at her confused until I saw the slight blush on her face. Placing my hand over hers “Don’t worry we’re all honourable gentlemen here, well I’m not sure about Kier I think we could call him an honourable lady” I said winking at her. she smiled “Thank you Luke” I nodded and walked out of the room.
