Chapter Two :

              Once I pulled up to her house, I left the car running to keep it warm for her. And placed the blanket on her seat with the seat warmer turned on so when she got in she can be warm. I would rather have her up against me when she if cold, but that’s a little much for right now.  As I walked up the snow covered path, I was about to knock when the door opened, and there stood Emma. She was wearing black leggings, and a light pastel dress sweater. With her winter jacket and winter hat on with her backpack on.

        “ Oh-uh Jace, what are you doing here? I didn’t think you were going to pick me up this morning?” She said, face turning red from the cold winter breeze.

         “ Yeah, I figured you were probably going to be walking, so I thought I would come pick you up. “ I said shoving my hands into my back pockets to resist the urge to touch her. After saying that her cheeks got even more red, if that possible.

          “ Really, thank you. My parents have just been so busy they normally drive me. “ She said stepping down the stairs to meet me.

           “ It’s fine, honestly. I don’t mind it.” I said taking her bag off of her back, just to put it over my back.

           “ You don’t have to carry my bag you know.” She said with a laugh, and looking down at her shoes then looking up to meet my eyes. I have never wanted to kiss someone more than I wanted to right now.

           “ I know, but you shouldn’t have to worry about carrying anything. “ I said with a smirk on my face as we walked out to the car. Once we got to the car, I reached around and opened her door, and the backseat one to put her bag down. After she sat down I closed the door behind her.

          After getting in on my side of the car I questioned, “ Did you eat? Are you hungry? “ Trying not to sound like a worried parent, if that makes any sense.

         “ Yeah, I ate breakfast. “ She said laughing a little to herself as she buckled in and wrapped herself in the blanket. She looked so adorable and warm in the blanket.

         As we drove to school it was a heavy silence like yesterday, it was more comfortable today. It still killed me inside to keep my eyes on the road, and my hands on the wheel.

          We were coming to a stop light when Emma said, “Thank you again for picking me up. “ whole  looking down at her lap. I couldn’t help but reach over and lift her chin up to meet my eyes.

         “ I honestly don't mind, i’ll drive you home tonight too if you want.” I reassured her, and offering a warm friendly smile to go along with it. With the bright green light signaling to go, my attention was brought back to the road. Out of the corner of my eye she was blushing, and had brought her hand up to touch where my hand had just been.

        “ I-I would um like that a lot. “ She said.  That damn stutter, she is so adorable.

    “ Then just meet me back at the car at the end of the day, I’ll drive you home. And you can always text me in the mornings if you want a ride. Like I said your on the way. “ No she’s not but whatever.

         “ Is Ashton your brother?” She asked. Great she’s interested in that fuck.

        “ Yeah he is, me and him drive two different cars because we can’t be in a confined space without fighting. “ I said laughing, yet clenching my hands around the steering wheel till my knuckles were white.

    “He seems nice, Crimson is so into him , he wanted me to ask you if he was into guys. So he knew if he could make a move or not.” That relaxed me, a little bit . Just a little bit.
