Chapter Ten

Rose's P.O.V

We finally make it to the hiking destination, it wasn't that far from our place; which I like.

We all started walking up, reading signs to find a "certain trail" that they liked the most.

Ivan and Chance walked in front of us, as me and Emilio walked a little bit behind them talking to each other.

I look over at Emilio, and see him looking over the edge, looking at the view.

I observe him, his perfect soft skin, pink lips, perfectly cut hair sweeping softly in the soft breeze that was in the air.

As we get higher in elevation, the colder it gets, and I instantly regret not bringing a heavier sweater. I wrap my arms around myself, trying to create some warmth.

As I do this, Emilio notices and asks, "Flor, are you cold?"

I see him start to take off his sweater, so I quickly stop him by placing my hands on his.

"No no i'm fine don't Emi, If you don't have a sweater you're going to get sick!" I exclaim, trying to get Emilio to keep his sweater on.

"Better me sick than you flor." He responds, a cheeky smile on his face before quickly running away from my embrace, taking off his sweater.

"Emi!" I call out knowing I don't have a choice.

With his sweater in hand, he comes back to me and forces it over my head. I stop fighting against it and just let him put the sweater on me.

I give Emilio a glare, while he looks at me with a huge grin and look of satisfaction.

"I'm not talking to you." I tell him playfully, crossing my arms as I walk up to Chance.

"Hey Chance how ya doing? Lovely day isn't it?" I tell him while looking around at the beautiful gifts of nature.

"Not as lovely as you Rose." Chance tells me, a flirty smile on his face, this time I don't know whether he is kidding or not.

I instantly grow uncomfortable, and Ivan notices.

"Hey Chance I'll race you to the top!" Ivan exclaims running up the trail, Chance tagging along behind him.

I instantly feel an arm wrap around my shoulders, bringing me into a warm body; instantly feeling sparks going through my veins.

I look up to see Emilio, a straight look on his face.

"Hey Emi, are you okay?" I ask him softly, looking up at his features. His face is still in a stern look, making me stop in my tracks.

I stand in front of him, looking up, I softly place my hand on his cheek, feeling him give in.

He loosens up, his face melting in with my cheek, as he places his hand over mine.

"I'm fine now." He whispers looking into my eyes, his once dull blue ones, now bright and living.

I smile, while I go up on my tip toes, and softly kiss his cheek, feeling like an eternity, but in reality; my lips left just how fast I placed them.

He wraps his arms around me once again, and we continue walking up the trail, as he looked away from me, hiding his flushed face.

We walk a little more up, until I no longer feel Emilio next to me, confused, I look around; but am surprised when I feel somebody grab me and in a quick flash, I'm thrown over somebody's shoulder.

"Emi put me down!" I laugh as I pound my fists on his back.

"Nope!" He responds back as he carries me up the trail. "I'm taking you somewhere cool!" He excitedly states.
