Last Hope || Jacob Whitesides

Chapter six

**Emily's POV**

I was going over a variety of scenarios in my head trying to figure out why my mum was glaring at me. I don't know what I did? Maybe she was mad that I didn't socialise with her stupid snobby workmates.

"Where have you been i haven't seen you all day I was worried." My mum hissed, though her facial expression now showed concern.

"Well... After I said hello to most of your friends, i knew I would be bored out of my mind if I sat at our table so I went for a walk in the back garden" I shrugged.

"So you went for a walk in that small garden for 4 hours?" She questioned with a frustrated tone, whilst rubbing her temples. 

"No, a boy my age went to escape his boredom out there too and we started chatting" I shrugged like it was nothing.

"Mmm. Let's just go home." My mum declared and stormed off to the car.

I don't know why she was mad at me. I shrugged it off deciding she was probably just tired.

I walked to the car, stepped in and put my seatbelt on. I was really tired but it was only 3pm. Regardless, I slept the whole care ride home. Which was only 20 minutes but it still, any naps a good nap.

I was grabbing an apple to eat when I realised Jacob might have texted me and I didn't get it because my phone was off. A sense of longing filled my body.

I walked up to my room and switched my phone on.
Disappointingly i had one message from Amy and three from my mum but none from the only person i wanted to talk to. My heart sank.

From Amy😜💖💜
*boo😖 that sucks !! Message me later love you! 😋*

From Mummy
*Where are you?*
*are you okay?*
*Answer me!!*

With a hint of annoyance i threw my phone on my bed.

**Jacobs POV**
I walked down the front stairs at my mums work, searching for my family.

I saw my sister Sierra, and my dad standing near the car, so I approached  them.

"Hey, where's mum?" I asked, though my thoughts were elsewhere. 

"She's just saying goodbye to a few people" my sister Sierra bluntly replied.

I stepped into my dads car and started scrolling through snapchat stories. 

I heard they car door open, i looked up and saw the rest of my family was getting in the car.

I didn't want to go home. I wish we could have stayed longer so I could have talked with Emily longer. Its ironic how i begged my parents to let my stay home today but now i don't want to leave.

I was just about to text her when, naturally my phone died. Great. Just my luck.

"Dammit!" I yelled

"What's wrong Jacob your girlfriend break up with you?" My sister joked.

"Shut up, what girlfriend?" I demanded.

"The girl you were talking to all goggly eyed all day." She mocked.

"She's just a friend, i don't even know her" I defended casually, trying not to make it seem obvious that i did wish she was more than a friend.

I wanted to text her. I wanted to talk to her again. I wanted to see her again. 

Damn I think i like this girl.
