Untitled Part 8

POV: PAUL

I get ready to feel the ground. I got ready to feel a bone or two break in my body. But I didn't. Instead, I felt something strong catch me and pull me close. Breathing hard, I soon came to the conclusion that this was not, in fact, the Grim Reaper, but Connor. My heart was beating as loud as a freight train, blood roaring in my ears and my breathing staggered.

I couldn't really comprehend what had just happened, or function correctly for that matter, so Connor wrapped his large arms around my waist, and slowly but surely climbed back down the tree. He set me down in the grass, then flopped down next to me. We were both breathing hard, and I wouldn't be surprised if he could hear my heart pounding.

We lay there for a few minutes, just being next to each other. "Hey," I said quietly, breaking the silence. "Hmm?" Connor mumbled, turning on his side to face me. "Uh, thanks. For everything. I know you probably didn't want to let me live with you but I really appreciate it, and thanks for saving me even though I've been such a problem, and--," I started rambling, a bad habit of mine, when Connor brought me closer to him and gave me a hug. He held my head to his chest, and I just sat there, happy to be with him

"Paul I don't know what's been going through your mind, but you are not a problem, ok? You're my best friend, always have been, always will be. "Guess you really fell for me dude," he smirked. "Shut up," I said shoving him a little I get down off him and Connor took off running? Wai.... my phone. "COONNNNOOOORR" I yell groaning. I start jogging in the direction he went I get out of the woods and I see Connor pushing Emma on the swings. I walked over and hear them giggling. I see Connor smirk at me.

"Heyy babyyyy" Connor said smiling at me giving Emma another push.

"Can I have my phone back?" I said, grumbling. Connor smiled and handed me the device he had stolen. I pressed the power button and immediately noticed a few changes; the lock screen was a picture of me, Connor, and Emma; my home screen was a picture of me and Connor acting stupid with "luv u bby" written at the bottom; and of course, there were 471 of the same picture of Connor in my gallery. Sighing, I shut off my phone and put it in my pocket.

I took a turn pushing Emma for a while, giving Connor the look the whole time, but after a few more minutes, we decided we would start heading home and wait for Emma's mom to come and get her.

We got home and that it's 12:45, so Emma's mom should be here relatively soon. "So did you have a good time?" I asked Emma when I sat down on the couch next to her she nodded vigorously and grinning.

"Yeah! You and Pauwl are the bestest!" she said hugging my arm I laugh patting her head she looks so much like her mom you could tell that they were mother and daughter way to easily   

"Thank you so much for looking after her boys," she said patting my head and whispering something to him. What did she say? Oh no. Pauls face slowly starts to turn red she better not have said something about sex. I swear this girl is not making this any easier.

I wave her off smiling at her of course because I do love her. She is my sister.

"What did she say?" I asked him. Paul smiled and shook his head and went up stairs. Ugghh what did she say. I'll get him to tell me..probably
