Emma and Adrian

Chapter 2

"You care too much..." That was what Adrian said to her to simplify everything.

Emma swallowed and looked away in shame. She was ashamed that he was right. She cared too much about what everyone thought. She once again sat down on the bed and looked down.

"You care too little..." She quietly answered back.

Nobody said anything after that. Adrian walked out of her room and Emma closed the door after him as quickly as she could. She pushed back the urge to cry and instead focused on getting ready for the party. Adrian did the same.

Adrian was as usual fast to get ready for parties. He didn't really take time to fix himself, instead he came as he looked, which was more than okay. He was good-looking, with his tanned skin and his brown hair that was perfect with just a drag with the hand. His brown eyes could fool anyone that he was a sweet boy without any problems. It was when you met him in person that you got a whole other perception of Adrian.

He stood in the hall and waited for Emma to be done with getting ready for the party. He didn't feel very patient as more than an hour had passed.

He heard footsteps from the stairs and looked up. There stood Emma, in a red dress that was just above her thighs. Her body looked amazing in it, it showed every curve of her body and according to Adrian the dress showed it a little bit too well. He didn't like it.

Adrians intense gaze stared at her. Emma met his eyes but looked away directly after as she noticed that his gaze was more than just intense; it looked hungry, and not for food.

She put on her black heels which made her a little bit taller but still not close to Adrians height.

Adrian took a step closer to her and Emma did the same but a step back. She looked down on the floor, pretending to admire her shoes.

Adrian placed his hand lightly under her shin and lifted her face. He studied her face for a while. Emma had now put makeup on, that's probably the reason why it took her so long.

"You're beautiful without makeup Emma." He said to her without moving a muscle. He was still upset after their latest conversation.

"Thank you..." She quietly said and stepped out of the house. It was dark outside, and very cold, still, she decided to not wear a jacket since she knew it would get lost if she took one.

Adrian followed her, and all of a sudden he took her hand in his.

"Adrian..." She said quietly. She just wanted him to accept the fact that what they were doing was wrong. The fact that they would never work.

He didn't listen. Instead he started to walk along the street with his hand in hers. She didn't protest because she knew it was no idea to make a move to remove her hand from Adrians. He was so determined if he wanted something.

When they arrived at the party Emma's hand was suddenly removed from Adrians. He looked at her, irritated at her action. He wasn't used to girls who pulled themselves away from him, not like Emma did.

"Hey!" A straitlaced voice said and when Adrian turned around to look at the person who started talking to him he saw the person he didn't want to see — Hannah.

Hannah was Emma's best friend who Adrian had slept with three times. Thus, three more times than with Emma.

All three times with Hannah he had called 'one night stands'. He had been angry every time and he had taken her because she was the easiest out of all of the girls.

"Hey, nice dress." He nodded to her black dress and smiled charmingly.

He could see in her blue eyes how she melted over him. She ran her hand through her thick blonde hair and giggled. She was an easy match for him.

Emma glanced at them which Adrian didn't notice at the moment. Why did he do this all the time? At home it was always the talk about 'you are the only one for me Emma' but when there was a party there was always someone else who Adrian had.

She didn't want to stand and watch Adrian talk to his best friend who happened to be hotter, sexier and everything Emma wasn't.

She stepped further into the house where the party was in full motion and she was met with Adam. The boy who had been interested in Emma for some time and had tried to get it to work between them. The boy who Adrian had ended up in fights a couple of times.

"Babe." He smiled and checked her out from top to bottom as he bit his lip in liking of how she looked.

Emma threw a quick glance over her shoulder to see Adrian keeping a close eye on her as she stood beside Adam.

"Your brother doesn't seem to like me, sweetheart."

Emma looked at Adam, the boy with the green eyes and the blonde hair who could be described as some sort of boy who thought he owned the world and therefore also owned Emma.

"Adam..." She said quietly, she was too afraid to say something more to the boy who only saw her as a toy for him to play with.

She tried to walk away from him but he stood in front of her and held her under control. He was so looking for a fight tonight.
