The terrible sound of the alarm wakes Emily up from her peaceful nap. Pulling her messy hair off her face, Emily tries to see the clock. Ah shit, it's 5 already. She crawls out of bed, struggling to get a grip of herself. I am gonna be late ahhhh I need to catch that train, omg.
Hey, are you still up?
Yeah, I fell asleep, I just woke up. I am a mess, I need to catch the 6:30 train if that's ok.
Sure it's fine, the church closes at 9 though, just remember that. I bet you still look beautiful ;)
This dude knows his way around with his words. Emily smiles at herself. It's Tinder, what do I even expect?
After half an hour of struggling to shower and put on clothes, Emily finally heads for the door. I am not really gonna make it, oh god, she panics as she hurries out to catch the train.
I am in such a hurry, I really hope I will make it
Woah, take your time, it's ok
Lol, I am on my way, I am not in proper clothes for sure, I was rushing.
I can get you something, do you have a hat? Are you cold?
No, and Hell yeah
Ok, I will get you a hat, it's ok. Just try to get here.
I gotta get there.
Which station do you want me to get down at?
Go to Mansfield that's the place I know.
Mansfield is 40 minutes away!! Well, this is gonna be a long night Emily thought.
......
"...approaching Mansfield.... Entering Mansfield....."
Emily groaned as she picks herself up from the seat. That was a long long ride. This guy better has a church that is worth traveling for! Emily smiles, I am here anyway, no turning back now.
Stepping out of the train into the cold winter air makes Emily starts shaking, it is not the perfect season for a skirt, Emily thought to herself.
The parking lot literally has 3 cars in it, which one is his?
Still confused and hugging herself, Emily stumbles down the steps before she felt someone pulling her aside. A soft, deep voice whispers by her ear "Hi". Emily jumped in confusion to stare at the guy in front of her.
He has light brown hair, glasses and a well-groomed beard, which appears to be more ginger. It was too dark to see his eyes, but Emily can feel his glance on her. She notices now his hands has been gripping hers, pulling her away from the people getting out of the train. He is warm, despite the weather outside. His hands are toasty against Emily's cold, shaking hands.
Recognizing him Emily lets out a sigh.
"I didn't see you there."
"I know you were in everyone's way, looking confused so I bet it's you. Let's get you to a warmer place" He says as he leads Emily to the car.
"I got you something" he whispers as they walk down the stairs.
"What is it?" Emily jumps in excitement! A present!!! Yayy Christmas present.
Her excitement must have been very visible, as it makes him giggle
"Come get in the car and then you can open it"
He hands Emily a piece of paper. Too excited to see it, Emily opens the car door and stands out, still shaking, to read it. Each of them were color printed in a light shade of pink and cute flowery decoration. Under the dim light of the train station, Emily reads "Use this coupon for 3 hours of cuddle"
Five of them! "I get five!!! That is 15 hours yayyyyyy!"
She jumps in the middle of the parking lot with the biggest grin on her face. She was too excited to feel anyone's gaze on her. There are like three people there anyway. And she can feel his warm glance on her excited body.
"Come on in! You are going to freeze outside"
Still smiling from ears to ears, Emily manages to sit down, still shaking.
"Thank you sosososososo much. I love it a lot. It's soo cuteeee! Thank youu"
"I figure you will like it, so I printed it out during work today"
"I love it soo much you are so nice"
"I am so glad, now let's hope we'll make it to the church"
He says as he grips his hand on the steering wheel. This is going to be a fun night, Emily thought.
