Your POV

I lied Kace down for his nap and got real clothes on, not just some pajamas. I put on some light makeup and headed downstairs as I took my hair out of it's braid. I already told my mom Emerson and I were going to hang out and she said she would watch Kace for us.

Emerson was looking at his phone when I came downstairs, I pushed it back and shook my head.

"Let's go" I said grabbing Emerson's harm and pulling him up.

"Okay, okay" Emerson giggled as he was willingly dragged out of my house. We just walked around the strip mall near the venue of the show he was playing with his brothers. We got to the topic of dating, which happened often because I was single while he was having girlfriends and relationships.

"Yeah" I laughed, "I'm still single and will probably always be. No one wants to date someone with a 2 year old." I smiled, looking at Emerson I asked him
"So how's your girlfriend?"

"Oh" Emerson paused "We uh- we broke up"

"Oh.. I'm sorry."

"I-It's fine. She just wasn't feeling 'us' anymore so she ended it."

"Oh." I said "How long have you been broken up?"

"Like.. 2 months now? I'm over her, and I like someone else but, ya know, it still hurts."

"Oooo" I said teasingly "whooooo's the girl?"

"I'd rather not say."

"Oh come on Emerson."

"Really, I'd rather not say."

"Why? Is cause it's meeee?" I said teasing him, I saw his cheeks go red.
"Oh my fucking god. It is me isn't it?" I looked at him. Emerson's cheeks got more red and he nodded. My face turned red too.

"Well" I smiled "I like you too. I have for awhile."

"Y-You have?" He looked at me, I nodded.

"Yeah. Ever since like- 8th grade I think."

"8th grade?" He scoffed "You liked the kid with the weird ass tales." He laughed.

"Yup." I smiled, "So, we should go for dinner sometime."

"Why would we need to go for dinner when we know everything about each other. Let's just skip the bullshit at the beginning."

"Then hold my hand." I said grabbing his and intertwining my fingers in his.
