Falling For The Bad Boy

Chapter 9

Callum

It's 10pm when Emilie falls asleep. Her head is on my shoulder and I don't dare to move because not only do I not want to wake her up but this feels perfect. She is perfect. I stroke her hair and whisper sweet nothings to her and I kiss the top of her head.

'Good Night Emilie' I whisper.

I close my eyes and lay back into the couch and fall asleep.

The Next Morning

I wake up feeling the sun shining on my face. Somehow, I am now lying on my back with Emilie sleeping half on-top/beside me. I kiss the top of her head.

'Rise and shine, sweet cheeks.'

'Hmmmm?'

'It's...' I check my phone. '11pm' Thank god it's Saturday or else Emilie would have killed me.

'Do I have to get up?'

'Well we can stay here and cuddle all day.'

'Ew no thanks, that's gross.'

'Ouch baby, that hurt.'

She sticks her tongue out at me and makes the most adorable face. I wrap my arms around her and kiss her head.

'Get off me, Callum!'

'I know you love me'

'You wish'

'Babe, you've got to stop with the mean comebacks. You're breaking my heart.'

'Me? Break your heart? Are you saying the heartbreakers heart can be broken?'

'Maybe. You'll only find out if you go out with me.'

'Not a chance, BABES.'

I attack her with kisses and she squirms around but I know she's enjoying it since she's not getting mad at me for once. I stop and she lies back down beside me and kisses me cheek.

'You know Callum, you're not so bad.' I can feel my heart fluttering as she says those words. This must mean i'm getting somewhere, right?

'You're not so bad yourself, nerd.'

'Don't call me that.' She pouts and I can't resist her anymore. I press my lips against hers and she resists for a split second but she kissed back. I bite her lip gently, trying to slip my tongue in. She keeps her lips closed so I grab her ass and squeeze it. She yelps quietly and I finally slip my tongue in. We have an intense makeout session and she pulls out first, trying to catch her breath.

'Wow. I never knew you were such a good kisser.'

'Shut up, weirdo.' She blushes and I laugh at her attempt of a comeback and the way she blushes at anything that's the slightest bit inappropriate.

I wrap my arms around her.

'I wish we could just stay here like this forever.' She says as she nuzzles my chest. I'm surprised at what she says. Could this mean she likes me ? Wait, since when have I become so needy?

'Hey Emilie, what are we?'

'I don't know Callum, what do you want to be?'

'I want you to go out with me.'

'Sorry, what?'

'Emilie, please. Give me a chance.'

'Why should I, Callum? I know what you're like. I'm not having you publicly humiliating me.'

'Why would you even think I would do such a thing? What, do you think I just open up to everyone just like I did to you? If I was only going to use you for sex, I would've by now.' I can feel myself burning up. How could she think like that? Can she not tell that I obviously have feelings for her?

'I need some time, Callum.'

'Emilie, wait- Please'

'I should go.' She gets up off the couch and starts walking away and I quickly follow her.

I grab her hand. 'Emilie, please. Just please give me a chance. I'm not going to lie to you, I really do like you and it's scary because i've never felt like this about anyone before. I know we've only really known each other for about a week, but trust me, i've noticed you way before that. You were the girl who punched a boy in 2nd grade because he called a girl ugly. You're the girl who helped everyone and knew when something was wrong. You're the girl who everyone was jealous of. You're the girl who used to be popular but then you closed up and got stuck in a shell in your own little world. Emilie, i've known you for so long. I've just never said anything because I was scared. Scared to see what you think of me. Scared of you not wanting me.'

She doesn't speak for a moment and she just looks shocked.

'Emilie, please. Please say something- anything.'

'Shhhh..' she presses her lips against mine and wraps her arms around my neck. I'm confused on what's happening but once I process everything, I kiss her back and loosely circle my arms around her waist. She licks my lower lip, and I let her tongue explore my mouth without hesitation. This kiss is so different to the one we had moment ago. This one feels like fire. Desperate and passionate. It's like all our emotions are pouring out. This time, I pull out first.

'Callum, I think I like you too.'
