Ethan's POV
"Okay so, when did all this happen?" I asked emma while she was criss cross on the couch facing me.

The only reason why I wasn't scared out of my mind, is because I didn't understand her meaning behind it yet. Otherwise I would have probably cried and told her to leave me alone forever.

"Um, it all started out when I was about 13 and my parents had been going through a rough year. Getting a divorce on top of that" I nodded and she took a deep breath.

Gray had left to breathe because he just couldn't, and I understand but I wanted to hear emma out first.

"My dad started to treat me like a toy, and yell at me saying it's all my fault and shit like that" her voice cracked and my heart ached.

"My mom left my dad not even bothering to ask me if I wanted to move with her, she just... left" she cleared her throat and sighed. "So one night I snuck into my dads room and stabbed him five times in the neck. Then I found out where my mom was and shot her in her head in her sleep." She shrugged and rolled her eyes.

"It was better that way so I didn't have to deal with their shit anymore." She said, her eyes draining of color.

"So, that's what led you to here?" I asked her, rubbing my hands on my thighs, getting rid of the sweat forming.

"Yep, boss found me on the streets and took my In when I had just turned 14. He never switched on me, so that's why I'm where I am now" Emma looked down and played with her fingers.

"I understand" I said to her grabbing her hand and holding it in mine. "I would do the same" I said once again, reassuring her.

A small smile showed on her face, she shook her head chuckling. "I hope Grayson doesn't hate me" she stated looking up at me.

"He doesn't, i promise he's just confused." I said looking back at her.

"I'm hungry" she blurted out. I laughed and she followed along. She stood up walking over to the door slipping on her shoes. I looked at her confused. "Well come on, I'm not going by myself." She said waving me over her way.

"Alright alright, let me call gray real fast." I stated grabbing my phone out of my pocket.

"Yo Gray, Emma and I are going to eat... you alright?" I asked.

"Yeah bro I'm fine, go ahead without me. Tell emma I'm not mad at her, I'm just a little bit con-" I interrupted him.

"Yeah I already did" I laughed. "Well I love you bro" I said into the phone and when he said it back I hung up.

"Alright let's go" I told, emma opening the door for her. She nodded and followed behind me.

We arrived at a nice vegan place that Emma requested. "I didn't know you were vegan" I stated chuckling a bit.

"Well I'm a bad human being, but not that bad" she said punching me in my shoulder. "No animal deserves to die" she said flipping her dark brown hair in my face.

We sat down in a booth. "Welcome to vegs, what can I get you two cuties?" A nice elderly waitress asked.

Emma chuckled at her and shook her head looking at the drink menu. "Water with a lemon, don't forget" she stated throwing the menu on the table. The waitress nodded.

"A-and you?" The lady stuttered. I glared at emma for being so rude and she just shrugged.

"A water with extra ice" I stated gently placing the menu on the table, glaring at emma the whole time. She giggled and rolled her eyes.

"Coming right up" the waitress said and walked away.

"Okay so the thing about ya know... the gang" I whispered. "Are we gonna get caught?" I asked.

"Oh no, everyone knows who I am. everyone is scared of me, and my gang. So don't worry" she stated like it wasn't a big deal. I just simple nodded while the waitress came back and set our waters down.

"Thanks" I said to her and she nodded.

"What to eat?" She asked taking her note pad out.

"We're not ready" Emma stated taking a drink of her water looking straight at me. I nodded at the waitress and she walked away.

Emma sighed. "You know your hot kinda" she blurted out looking me dead in my eyes. My cheeks turned bright red and I chuckled nervously, rubbing the back of my neck.

"Dang, no need to be a tomato now" she laughed, then a small smirk forming on her face.

"Guess your not to bad yourself" I said raising an eyebrow at her, she choked on her water and I died laughed. She joined soon after and spit water at me. "Oh your gonna get it" I stated grabbing my cup and dumping it on her head.

Her mouth opened wide a playful scoff coming out of her mouth. She dived over the booth table and grabbed her drink pouring it over my head also.

She got on my lap, both of her legs on both sides of me. She took her hands and rubbed the water into my hair, my mouth opened in disbelief.

I shook my head and water flew out getting all over her face. Loud giggles escaped her mouth. She looked down to me and smiled at me.

"I feel like we can try" she blurted out, covering her mouth over he hand after. I moved her hands away from her mouth and smirked at her.

"Try what?" I teased her. She blushed and rolled her eyes playfully.

"Okay I'll tell you" she whispered. She took a deep breath and I watched her as I waited for her to speak. "I wanna try us" she said smiling down to me.

I nodded agreeing with her. She grabbing my face in her hands and pecked me lips. My cheeks turned beat red and I laughed at her. She rolled her eyes and got off of my lap, sitting next to me.

"You guys are gonna have to leave" we looked up to the person by our booth, the manager. Emma and I laughed and got up leaving.

"So to us?" I asked her putting my arm around her shoulder. She pulled my arm off of her and laughed.

"I guess... to us" she opened my car door, rolling her eyes playfully. I shook my head at her and drove us toward my house.
