Chapter 25

I slowly pulled away from him. His eyes were as wide as mine. He was looking at me, blushing, as was I.

"I-i'm sorry." I whisper, trying to break from his grip.

He only wrapped his hands around me tighter. "Don't be."

He leaned in again and the previous action repeated itself.

I laced my fingers through his hair and slightly tugged, earning a moan. Goose bumps covered my body and I shivered. He took the time to gently slide his tongue in to my mouth, gaining dominance. He tasted like peppermint.

I'm hadn't even realized that we had slowly, but surely, backed up to the kitchen counter. He was pressing me against it and I jumped when the drawer knob poked my back.

He broke away, only to smile and lift me onto the counter top. He then placed his lips back on mine, more forcefully. His hands wandered all around my arms and waist, causing goosebumps to appear and reappear over again.

"Emma!!!" Sam's voice rang through my ears. "Can you two get off each other please?! We have bigger issues to deal with!" He threw his hands in the air. "Meet me in the living room."

Tyler's forehead was resting on mine, both of us breathing heavily. He smiled at me, his eyes sparkling.

"Hi." he whispered.

I giggled.

"You better now?" he smirked.

"Yeah. Yeah I think so!" I giggled into his chest.

"You're brother probably hates me now."

"Yeah that was awkward."

"Tyler?! Emma?!" Sam yelled from the other room.

I rolled my eyes, jumping down from the counter, taking his hand.

"Yeah, he definitely hates me." he whispered into my ear as we walked into the room to join Sam. I smiled.

"Sam what do you need?" I asked, taking a seat by my brother.

"Well for one I do not want to walk in on that again and-"

"Sam!!" I punched his arm.

He laughed. Really hard. "I'm only joking. No but seriously what are we going to do about Emily?"

Tyler spoke up. "She could stay with me?"

I shook my head. "No, she's staying here."

"But Em, what will mom say?" Sam grabbed my hand.

"What do you mean?"

He sighed, running a hand through his blonde locks. "Em, she can barely afford to keep you fed and me at school. You know that, right?"

I gulped. I knew only about the food. "School?"

"I've been paying for my own tuition for two years."

Tears filled my eyes. It was times like this that I missed my dad more than anything.

Tyler grabbed my other hand and pulled me into a hug as my body shook with sobs.

"Okay, look." He said, pulling away. "Emily can just stay with me and I will take care of her and during the day she can be with you and-"

"What are my lovely children talking about and Em why are you crying?"

We all turned around.

"Oh, hi, m-mom." Sam rubbed the nape of his neck nervously. "How long have you been standing there?"

"Long enough." she said, taking a seat opposite the couch. "What's this about? Where is Emily, if she's here?"

"She's here." I sniffled.

"Why is she here?"

I then told my mom the entire story about what happened at the book store. She was quiet for a moment before she smiled at me.

"That was very brave of you."

"What are we gonna do?" I gave her a weak smile.

"She can't go back, Sam." my mother looked at him.

He just nodded. He wasn't too fond of Emily.

Mom took a deep breath. "She can stay here. But Emily I need you to watch out for her. And...and I need your help."

"Sure!" I was excited. "What can I do?"

When she looked at me the smile on my face faded. "I need you to get a job, please, honey."

Reality hit me like a train. "Really?"

She nodded. "We need the money... and with another mouth to feed-"

I raised my hand, stopping her. "I understand, mom. I'll do whatever it takes. I love you."

"Group hug." Sam smiled, grabbing my mothers hand and mine as he pulled us towards him. After a short while, I pulled away and brought Tyler in, too.

He stiffened for a minute but then he relaxed. Yay family time.

But there was still one thing on my mind.

Were we really that broke?
