Overprotective

Chapter 36

When I woke up I noticed that I was in bed next to Brody even though I was positive that we had fallen asleep on the couch downstairs. It took me a minute but I finally got up to take a shower and get ready. We had school so I had to get dressed in something other than sweatpants. I chose an outfit that wasn't too happy, but still didn't show my true feelings.

I put my hair up into a ponytail before I walked down the stairs into the kitchen. Blake was in front of the stove making breakfast like he did every morning.

"Good morning Emma." He greeted setting a plate down in front of me.

"Morning." I greeted back. I started eating and soon many footsteps were heard walking down the stairs.

"Morning." Ethan grumbled kissing the top of my head as he sat down next to me.

"So you know how tomorrow is the last day of the project?" I started and waited for him to nod. "Well I was thinking. Emily and I are old enough to have our own rooms so I was thinking maybe I could have the guest room or she could have the guest room?" I rambled.

"We'll talk about it after school tomorrow." He answered as everyone came down the stairs.

"How are you feeling today Emma?" Jason questioned.

"Fine." I answered. Even though I had been out in the rain I didn't feel sick or anything like that. I felt normal and for once I wasn't angry or sad. I was actually happy.

"Who's ready for school?"

                                *At School*
As soon as I got to school Chad was smirking at me which didn't surprise me, but what did surprise me was that Tommy was next to him laughing at something Chase had said. Immediately I knew why Chad was smirking. It was because part of his revenge was Tommy.

I pretended that didn't let it bother me that Tommy was hanging around two people that I hated so I walked right up to him and gave him a hug.

"Hey Emma. Where were you yesterday?" Tommy asked hugging me back.

"I had a doctors appointment." I answered he smiled at me before turning to Chad.

"I have to get to class. Tell me what you were going to tell me later." Tommy waved goodbye and left me alone with two devils.

"So doctors appointment huh? What did they say? That you were overweight? Did they not have medication to cure ugliness?" Chad teased.

"Of course not. If they had medication for that you wouldn't still look like you do." I teased back before glaring at him and turning away. So much for my happy mood. I headed into class and sat down in my new seat. I would be sitting by Tommy, but he got moved to the smart English class.

"Ok class so you know that tomorrow is the last day of our projects. I have decided that today we are going to have a day where you and your partner just sit around and talk about what you liked the most and what you liked the least." Me. Harmon said and he sat down.

Brody walked over to me and smiled. "How are you feeling?" He asked sitting down in the seat next to me.

"Fine. So what was your favorite part?" I asked him.

"The one time we kissed." He bluntly replied. I could feel my cheeks start to heat up.

"Ok what was your least favorite part?"

"Last night. You seriously scared us Emma."

"I know. I'm sorry it's just I didn't think about what I was doing before I did it, but I will never do it again."

"What was your favorite part."

"Honestly you're a really good bed partner on cold nights." He smiled at me and I found myself smiling back at him. "My least favorite part was when my brother caught us that one time."

"Yeah. I can agree with both of those answers." Even though Chad had put a damper on my mood, Brody had made me feel better and I was ready to say what I was afraid to.

I liked Brody Harding.

I'm sorry that this was so short and so bad, but I'm hoping that you're happy that I updated faster than usual.
