Chapter10: Public Declaration’s and Chase & Catch

Emmy’s POV:

Practice seemed to take forever and I was exhausted and starving by the time it was over with. Carrie and Taylor wouldn’t leave me alone about Dixon and by the time we were walking out of the school and into the parking lot, I had forgotten all about him picking me up, that is until I saw him leaning up against his truck waiting. I couldn’t help the smile that appeared on my face and that matched the one he sported, but before I could realize what was happening Taylor and Carrie both took off towards him.

“Dixon! You must tell us details now! Emmy won’t give us anything on the two of you” Taylor demanded, he just laughed at the two of them as I made my way over to the three of them. “Well if she doesn’t want to tell you then that’s not my problem now is it, seeing as I know the details” he told them and reached out and pulled me to him and tucked me into his side. “Aww come on Dixon, just give us a little something” Taylor whined, he just shook his head at her, she huffed and crossed her arms “fine”.

She turned to me “are we still going for ice cream?” I nodded “if you want to” she smiled and nodded, “Dixon will you be joining us?” she asked him. I looked up at him, he smiled down at me “if that’s okay with Emmy” I shyly smiled and nodded my head, I secretly loved when he said my name, it made me feel special for some reason. “Great I’ll meet you guys over there” Taylor said before running off to her car, Dixon opened the door for me and helped me into his truck.

After Dixon got in the driver seat and cranked the truck up we were off to Swirls, “so how was practice?” Dixon asked, “Not too bad, I’m starving though” he chuckled at my pout. “Well it’s a good thing that we’re here isn’t it” I laughed as we pulled into the parking lot of Swirls, I went to open the door but Dixon stopped me. “No wait right there” he said and he quickly got out of the truck and ran over to my side and opened my door but instead moving so I could get out he stood in front of me.

“Um Dixon I can’t get down if your blocking my way” I told him, he just smirked and leaned in closer to me “that’s kind of the point” he mumbled as he captured my lips and slowly kissed me. “Are you two going to get ice cream or eat each other’s faces” Taylor yelled, I pulled away from the kiss and glared over at my supposed best friend. Dixon laughed “come on let’s get you some ice cream” he stepped back and helped me down from the truck. Holding my hand he pulled me over to the order counter with Taylor.

Dixon and I ended up splitting a sundae and after saying our goodbyes to Taylor we headed home and ate dinner with the boys and then all of watched TV together. I don’t remember falling asleep on the couch but I woke up when Dixon picked me up and carried me to my room, he gently laid me down on the bed and covered me up and kissed my forehead. “Goodnight Emmy, sweet dreams” he whispered to me, I managed to mumble a goodnight before I drifted off into a deep sleep.

I didn’t wake up the next morning til Taylor was jumping on my bed yelling at me to get up and get ready; once again she picked my outfit out for me. This time we were lucky enough to not be caught leaving the house by the time lunch rolled around I was in a mood once again. I seriously had to stop letting Taylor pick out my outfits for me, one it was raining today so there was no need to be so exposed and two if one more guy commented on how great my ‘assests’ were, I was going to take him down.

“Come on Emm, I’m sure lunch will be better plus you’ll get to see Dixon” she cooed at me, I grumbled at her, we were on our way to cafeteria when Dixon showed up speed walking towards us and  grinning really big. Trey of course was right there with him “come on we have to hurry and get to the cafeteria” he grabbed my hand and started pulling me quickly towards the cafeteria. “What’s got him so excited?” Taylor asked hurrying along with us, Trey shrugged “I don’t know but he keeps saying we can’t miss it”.

We made it to the cafeteria and to our table, Dixon quickly sat on top of the table looking towards the football table, I could see James walking over to it. “What’s James doing?” I asked, “Shh! Just watch and listen” Dixon told me, so I did just that. James tapped Noah on the shoulder, catching not only Noah’s attention but the entire table’s, Noah smiled up at James as James pulled him up to stand in front of him.

By now the whole cafeteria was watching and had quieted down to where everyone could hear what was being said. “What are you doing?” Noah asked James, “I love you!” James blurted, everyone gasped including me “I should have never made you wait to go public about our relationship, I’m so sorry Noah. The last two years we’ve been together have been the absolute best two years of my life and I can’t wait to spend more of them with you” and with that James kissed Noah.

I shared a look with Taylor we both broke out in grins and started cheering and clapping; soon the entire cafeteria was cheering and clapping. Noah and James pulled apart blushing and smiled at everyone, I looked over at Dixon “you knew” I stated, he nodded “I talked to him yesterday about how he should do this” I smiled and nodded. “Taylor and I have known since they got together” he gaped at me and so did Trey “how did the two of you know and we didn’t?” they asked.

Taylor and I giggled “you be amazed at what the two of us actually know about the four of y’all, you guys aren’t very good at having quiet guy talk you know” Taylor chimed in. “What else do you know?” they asked taking a quick step towards us, Taylor squeaked and I grabbed her hand and threw a flirty smile at Dixon. “You’ll never catch us alive” I yelled and we took off out the cafeteria and down the hall, seconds later footfalls could be heard following us.

A game of chase and catch at school during lunch sounded fun, I mean it is raining after all what else were we going to do. Taylor and I quickly split up knowing exactly where to meet up at once we lost them. As I pushed myself to run faster down the hall I heard “Run all you want Emmy but I’m going to catch you and when I do, I’m going to make you spill all the things you know” I stuck my tongue out at Dixon behind me. “I’m going to use that tongue to do it to” he told me, I squealed and ran faster.

This day was getting better that was for sure!
