Untouchable

Healing

Healing

That was the last step but I was trying to make it the first.

I stayed locked in my room for a few days and just told my parents that Kevin and I got into a fight.

I would avoid him at school

I didn't answer his calls.

I didn't answer his texts.

Today would be different. I would change today. I would heal today.

I got up, got ready, and went to school looking better than ever.

I walked through the halls earning looks from people who had noticed how I had been acting for the past few days.

"Winning the breakup?" I heard someone say

I turned around to face them. It was Sadie.

"What?" I asked

"You guys broke up right?" She asked

"No" I said

"Oh... you just looked... I don't know. I'm sorry my bad" She said

We both stood there in silence for a few seconds before she spoke up.

"Listen. I'm sorry about what happened. We really miss you, Emma." She said with pleading eyes

"I miss you too" I said

"Can I text you later?" She asked

"Yeah" I nodded with a smile

I continued walking until I saw Kevin.

I walked up  to him and grabbed his hand.

He didn't flinch or anything but he looked a bit surprised.

"Emma" He said

"Hi" I smiled

"You look beautiful" He said

"Are you okay?" He asked

"I'm perfect why?" I asked

"You know why" He squinted 

"I'm fine Kevin." I smiled

He stayed quiet and just stared into my eyes.

"So Sadie apologized to me just now" I said

"Did she" He asked in a tone that sounded like he wasn't interested but his eyes never left mine.

"Yeah. She misses me." I said

"Oh really" He said keeping eye contact

"Kevin what are you doing" I asked, annoyed

"Nothing" He looked away

I squinted at him but quickly let it go.

I could tell by the way he looked at me all day that he thought I was up to something. I'm not I'm just getting over it.

We walked to his house. It was the first time I'd gone there in a while.

When we got there no one was home.

"Emma do you mind telling me what you're trying to accomplish?" He asked sternly

"What are you talking about?" I questioned

"Do you think that forgetting about the baby is gonna help you?" He asked

"I don't know what you're talking about" I said

"Emma stop" He warned

"Kevin you stop" I crossed my arms.

"How dare you hide something that important from me how fucking dare you" He said
