Emily's POV

I did want to leave him alone. He was so traumatized. Skyler came back into the living room looking like a deer in headlights. I felt kinda bad that we couldn't explain what happened.

Steve said he would take us all home. Turns out Skyler lived right around the corner from Steve. He dropped her off saying he was sorry for what happened. She told him it was fine and walked away into her house.

I rest of the ride was quite none of us talked. I sat in the back with Dustin holding his hand trying to make sure he stayed calm. Steve pulled up to his house,but Dustin just sat in the car for a minute. "Hey" Steve said looking at us in the review mirror.

"Your good ok,it wasn't real,we're fine" he said. Dustin nodded and looked at me sadly. I squeezed his hand and he gave me and small smile. He un buckled and opened the door. Then kinda just sat there.

"Hey" I whispered to him rubbing his shoulder.

"It's ok" I told him he took a deep breath. And quickly turned around and hugged me. He pulled away and looked at me sadly.

To give him extra courage I leaned in and kissed him. I had never kissed anyone before him. But I was glad he was my first. His lips were kinda ruff but in a good way. They seemed to cradle mine when they made contact. I pulled away and he was smiling. It was nice seeing him smile like that again. When he did his eyes lit up,his whole body seemed to lift. And he would just stare at me.

And I at him. Oh god why was he so cute. Sometimes I couldn't take it. His brown curls framed his face so well and his lite blue eyes were such a contrast to his darker skin tone. I would often get lost in them forgetting what I was previously doing. Or where I was,but I was ok with it.

He gave me a nod and gave me a quick kiss on the cheek before climbing out of the car. I watched him go back inside his house. Steve drove off towards my house it was close so we were there in around 10 minuets.

I unbuckled and went to open the door. "Em" I stoped and looked at Steve.

"You really care about him huh?" He asked.

"Of course I do" I said. Steve nodded and then turned around in his seat to look at me.

"What are we going to do?" He asked getting a little emotional.

"We're going to kill it" I said more harsh then I meant to be. He nodded.

"I just....hate seeing him like that" he said.

"I know so do I" I said looking at the floor for a second.

"So.....what was Skyler doing at your house?" He chuckled at my question before answering.

"I gave her my number and she called me asking if I wanted to hang out. So we did"

"How long was she there for?"

"Ummmm she got there at around 1;00"

"Steve!" He looked at me a little confused for raising my voice. "That's like 9 hours!" I said.

He looked surprised "really?" He asked.

His face wasn't confused though or surprised anymore. It looked like he was thinking but he had a stupid grin on his face. It was the same grin Dustin got when Mike asked if we were dating.

"Steve" I said snapping him back.

"Do you like her?" I asked he shrugged.

"Maybe I don't know" he said but his face said something else.

"Ok Steve ok" I said patting his shoulder and climbing out of the car.

"Hey!" He yelled at me through the window. I turned around to face him.

"C-can we um....try and g-get that out of Dustin tomorrow?" He asked. The happiness that was on his face a minute ago gone replaced by fear.

"I think that's a great idea" he gave me a nod.

Steve drove off as I walked into my house. It was 12:30. I went to my room only to be called out by my mom.

"We're did you go what happened?!?" She asked me clearly she was worried.

"I'm sorry mom,Dustin had a really bad dream and he wanted to make sure me and Steve were safe" I said witch was pretty close to the truth. She walked over to me and put her hands on my shoulder before saying.

"You keep that one as long as you can ok. Because your not going to find another one like him" she said and then she walked away to her room.

I planed on it.
