Chapter 5

Ok, saying that the kiss was good with a huge cocky grin on my face probably wasnt a good idea with Emily Rose in such a bad mood. I knew I had to make it up to her also. At the moment though I was probably hurting worse than I was a few hours ago. My chest was still trying to get healed and I knew the stitches needed to come out sooner or later, the third degree burn mark on my chest also, and to top that off Emily Rose's slap probably hurt the most if anything.

The nurse gave Emily Rose and I some medicine for the burn and set us on our way. By the time we were done in there it was time to go home. By then I could walk on my own. The burn wasnt that bad, my skin was just slightly red and sensitive. On closer inspection the burn only looked like a really bad sun burn.

"Why are you so mad?" I was walking Emily Rose home, like I had told her this morning I would; yet, this wasnt what I had wanted it to be. I didnt want her to be mad at me and completely ignoring me.

"Nik, go away..." Emily Rose walked faster in front of me.

"Look, it isnt my fault Lia was hitting on me and that I was flirting back. She used her power against me!" I whined rushing to keep up with her. I sighed. "Are you mad because I said I was single?" I asked her and got in front of her looking down at her.

Emily Rose didnt say anything, she blushed and bit her lip not looking at me. "So thats why your mad at me?" I smiled small. "You arent mad at me for flirting with Lia. If anything your jealous I was flirting with Lia even though she was using her powers against me. And if Im not mistaken your mad at me because I punched that guy." I said and paused thinking about what I was going to say. "Yet, I think the biggest reason why your mad at me is because I said I was single, and that we arent officially together." I concluded. And still Emily Rose said nothing and she blushed more. "Come on Emily Rose, you know it wasnt my fault." I said thinking again. "What if I made it up to you?" I asked.

She looked at me, still blushing. "What do you have in mind?" She whispered.

I smiled and put my hand on her cheek stepping closer to her. "A dinner and a movie?" I asked looking into Emily Rose's blue eyes with mine. "I'll even walk you home after..." I said trying to get her to say yes.

Emily Rose looked at me for a second to see if I was serious when I was she nodded once, like she was thinking. "Alright, I'll go." She said and started walking again.

I smiled in triumph and almost made a fist pump, but I controlled my happiness. We walked the rest of the way to Emily Rose's house in silence; both of us thinking about tonight I'm sure. When she got to the door, she turned and looked at me. I put my hand on her cheek stroking it with my thumb right on the small birthmark that was there. I kissed her forehead gently, breathing in the scent of her hair. Her eyes were closed with a small smile on her face. "Stay safe..." I whispered into her ear and watched Emily Rose go into her house.

50 Minutes Later

I was throwing clothes out of my closet trying to find something to wear. Nothing I had was remotely good enough. If I was going to take Emily Rose to dinner I wanted to wear something good. Like I wanted to look sexy, but not the bad boy type everyone tagged me as.

"Ahh!!" I groaned in frustration. My hair was still wet from the shower I had taken awhile ago. I finally found a black wife beater shirt and I put it on. I then looked for another shirt that I could put over the black one. I ended up finding a white shirt that buttoned up. I rolled up the sleeves and started looking for some jeans. I picked a black pair, put them on, going into the bathroom to fix my hair, brush my teeth, and to put colgne on.
