{Emily's POV}

Michael gets me home around 6:00. I am definitely dead. My mother will kill me. Michael & I walk up to the door to discover it is locked. I pull my keys out of my purse then open it to a practically empty house. Michael closely follows me as I wander around downstairs looking for my mom. Nothing. I take a sigh of relief.

"She will never know," I smile turning to Michael.

"Do you think anyone is here right now?"

"Probably not," I smile as I bite my lip. I think I knew what he was thinking.

"Does that mean I can do this?" He says he as pushes me against the kitchen counter and starts kissing me.

"Maybe," I say between kisses.

He slowly starts to lift me up onto the counter when all of a sudden we hear foot steps. He quickly jumps down and I slid off the counter. He gives me a startled look and I walk over to the doorframe.

"Hi, Kat! I didn't know you would still be here," I sheepishly smile.

"Oh, yeah. Why do you look so guilty?" She continues towards me.

"No reason," I say as I let her pass into the kitchen.

Luke walks down stairs a second later.

"You're home," Luke says in an odd tone.

"I'm home?" I say looking at him oddly.

"I was just expecting you to be with Michael later," he replies.

"I told Mom I'd be home by 5:30, though I didn't make that, I am home and she is not."

"Yeah, do we have any popcorn?" Luke says ignoring my statement.

"I think I saw some in the pantry the other day," Michael pipes in.

"Thanks bro," Luke smiles at him.

"Kat, when are you going home?" I say as I look over to her.

"I think my mom is getting me in a little bit, not really sure." She says.

"Oh, alright." I say as I start to walk towards my room.

I decide to go change into more comfortable clothes. My jeans and my uncomfortably low v-neck shirt are not working for me anymore. Michael decides to follow because sometimes he seems like a lost puppy. That is okay though. We walk into my room then I turn and shut the door behind me. Michael gave me this look that said way more than I had intended.

"Not today my dear," I giggle at him as I walk into my closet.

"What do you meannnnnn?" He whines as I shut my closet door.

"I came in here to change, not get dirty," I laugh.

"That's sad," he says as he connects his phone to the speaker in my room.

As I begin to pull my shirt off, I hear my speaker make the odd sound it makes when it cuts on. All of a sudden I hear James Dean & Audrey Hepburn by Sleeping With Sirens. I start to hum along as I pull on my favorite big t-shirt that I stole from Luke one time when I was doing laundry. I do not even think he knows I have it. I pull off my jeans and throw them in the laundry basket before realizing I left my pajama shorts on my office chair this morning. I'm going to kill myself. At least this shirt is big. I sigh as I walk out of my closet in my revealing underwear and big t-shirt.

"You didn't have to get so dressed up for me," Michael laughs as I walk to my desk.

"Hush child," I laugh as I pull on my shorts.

"You know you didn't have to put those on," he winks at me as I turn around.

"Oh stop," I roll my eyes as I plop down on my bed by Mikey.

"What do you want to do?" He says, smiling down at me as I lay myself across the bed with my head in his lap.

"I want to sleep," I sleepily sigh.

"Then let's sleep!" Michael excitedly says as he gently takes my head out of his lap and curls up to me.

Michael left the music playing as I start to drift off to sleep. He is such amazing boyfriend. It is so great that he is willing to just lay here with me & take a nap. He is so sweet and thoughtful. Slowly, I drift off to sleep.

I wake up to a phone call without even checking the time. I quickly pull my phone to my ear.

"Hello?" I say as I realize I did not even check who it was.

"Emily! I realized something! I need to tell you right away," Austin excitedly screeches on the other end.

"Can you come over?" I laugh as his excitement.

"Anytime! Be there in 10! Also, did I wake you up?" He laughs back.

"Nooooooo," I say as I sheepishly drag it out. He knows.

"Of course I did! About to get in my car!" He says as he hangs up without giving me time to reply.

"Who was that? What time is it?" Michael says as I set my phone down.

"It was Austin and let me s- oh shit! It is 9 o'clock!" I say with shock.

"What?!" Michael almost shouts back.

"I also have one missed text from Kathryn, let's see..." I trail off as I open my phone.

That was that for now. I roll over and look at Michael. Right as he places his hand on my hip, his stomach growls very loudly.

"Are you hungry, baby?" I say, making a mocking pouty face at him.

"Oh yes I am," he says with a wink.

"Michael, what is wrong with you?" I say as I start laughing.

"Someone just keeps me waiting," he jokingly rolls his eyes.

"Mhmm," I hum back.

"Mhmm," he mocks me. "But seriously, I am hungry. Do you have anything to eat here?"

"I believe so, but Austin will be here any second. Want to make something after he tells me whatever is so important?"

"That sounds good, princess."

My face reddens with his words. He sure does know how to make me feel like a princess. I plant a gentle kiss on his lips right as I hear the front door open. I rapidly exit my room and run to the living room.

"Austin!" I excitedly say as he pulls me into a hug.

"Emily! This is the best day ever. I realized something when I was getting dinner earlier!" He exclaims.

"Whoa calm down. Surely it isn't this exciting," I laugh.

"But it is!"

"Well?" I smile at him expectantly.

"You see, I was out eating dinner by myself. I tried texting you to see if you wanted to go with me, but I guess you were asleep. I was sitting there by myself. I was just people watching creepily in the corner as -," he is so happy.

I interrupt him,"why were you sitting in the corner creepily? Don't you know that gives the wrong message?" I laugh.

"I know! Hush, I'm telling a story! So anyway, I was watching people, then I realized-"

Hey guys! I am so sorry to anyone that was reading this story and actually liking it. We totally disappeared on it out of no where, and I feel awful about it. We are hoping to pick it back up though. Maybe between our hectic schedules, we can get it worked out. Thank you so much to anyone still reading! xx
