can you see me? ///m.g

chapter 26~the slap

Martinus pov//

I turned over to a beautiful thing.

Emilie.

I'm so happy I can officially call her mine because wow am I lucky.

My arms were wrapped around her and her sleeping body.

I pulled her in close to me and kissed her on the forehead.

Emilie-"Morning Martinus."

Martinus-"Good morning sunshine."

She really was my sunshine.

Emilie-"What do you want to do today?"

Martinus-"Anything. As long as I'm with you I will be happy!"

She smiled right at me and gave me a kiss on the nose.

We snuck into where Marcus and Cece were and played really loud music to wake them up.

Boy they were mad.

Marcus-"Martinus!"

Martinus-"Marcus!"

We were all laughing at that.

We decided to get some breakfast downstairs where we were joined by the adults and Emma and Marie.

I could see out of the corner of my eye that Emilie was glaring at her mom and she was glaring right back at her.

What did I miss?

Mrs. James-"Emilie did you put all those clothes away like I told you."

Emilie-"No."

She shot that back at her.

Emilie-"I'll go do it now."

Mrs. James-"No, sit down."

Emilie-"Make up your mind."

She mumbled that and seemed upset with her mom.

She just stared down at her food and pushed around on her plate.

Martinus-"Is everything okay."

She just nodded.

I knew something was wrong.

I looked back at Marcus and he shrugged because he couldn't tell what was going on.

She finished her food and put her plate in the sink.

I watched every move she made and I can tell it was done with the same Emilie spirit like always.

She finished her food and went upstairs to maybe shower or something.

I went upstairs soon after, and when I walked in Emilie's room she was lying faced down on the bed.

I sat on the bed and started to rub her back.

Emilie-"Martinus?"

Martinus-"Yes it's me."

She turned on her back to look at me.

I looked down at her and I could see something was troubling her but what was it?

Emilie-"I don't want to live here."

There it is.

Martinus-"I know it's scary being in a new place, trust me but you will adjust. Marcus, Cece and I will talk to you everyday and try to visit and you are always welcome back in Trofors because it's your home and-"

Emilie-"No I don't want to live with my mom."

That confused me.

I gave her a side tilt and I was trying to think of what that could mean.
