- Melanie's pov -

I woke up the next day, Me and Emerson decided last night to talk during lunch today. I'm scared he'll tell me he doesn't like me. "C'mon sunshine, time to wake up" I hear Sebastian call. "When did you get here?" I scream. "I came last night" "You sure did" Zoe screamed. Sebastian started laughing. "YOU'RE DISGUSTING" I screamed at the top of my lungs. They just laughed.

I got out of bed, I decided to wear my red plaid skirt with fishnets and a black T-shirt, then a lot of necklaces and black doc martens. I then put on eyeliner and brushed my hair. I walked downstairs.

"Oh well someone looks extra cute today, got anyone to impress?" Sebastian winked at me. He was standing with is arms around Zoe's waist. "Fuck off, and can you PLEASE not do that when I'm close, it's gross." I say eating my cereal. "What? You mean this." Sebastian swirled Zoe around and kissed her. "Okay Seb, it's time to leave before you start fucking right in front of me." I stood up and put my bowl in the sink and went to grab my bag.

Sebastian and I walked out to the car. "Are Rem and Emerson not coming?" I said looking down at my lap as we started driving. "Uh no Rem had something to do before school and Emerson said he didn't need a ride." I looked out the window, is he with someone else??? I thought to myself. "Don't worry, he told me you were meeting up later and he's definitely not with some other girl, he likes you." Sebastian said like he could read my thoughts. I blushed and we pulled up to school, I jumped out the car saying thanks fast before walking in.

I didn't have any classes with Emerson today, I miss seeing his face but I guess it would be pretty awkward since we still needed to talk. I didn't think my class could get any more boring and slow but somehow it was possible. But then the bell finally rang, I quickly got my stuff and ran out the classroom I hurried to the spot behind the gym. I saw Emerson's hat as I walked around the corner, today he didn't have his sketch book he just sat on the ground very peacefully.

"Hi!! I said with a big smile. He smiled back as I sat down besides him. I reached in my pocket and got out my pack of cigs. "Here, since you gave me yesterday." He gave me a thankful look and took up his lighter. "Just promise you won't tell on me." I winked. "Never." He looked at me right in the eyes. We starred right at each other for a few seconds. "Oh uh- uhm" He muttered and looked away. "Uhm, so yesterday, was it true?" I asked nervously. "U-uh yeah. I understand if you hate me, we barely know each other." He sounded so nervous. "No absolutely not, even if we don't know each other that well, you're very cute and you seem really nice and sweet." I said, as soon as I said it he grabbed my hand.

"You're cuter" He winked at me. I couldn't believe it, Emerson Barrett was flirting with me. "Stop you're making me blush like crazy ahah." I had so many emotions. He moved closer to me still holding my hand, I put my head on his shoulder.

We talked and talked and then it was time for class again, we stood up. He looked at me, he was a bit taller than me and he bent down his head and kissed my cheek. I was in shock. He looked at me, smiled and then walked off. I just stood there like an idiot for a few seconds. I started walking back into school.

I walked into class and sat down. Mrs Bloods is a really relaxed teacher so I took up my phone to text Emerson.

Melanie: Hey, wanna come to my house after school? Rem and Sebass are coming over, it'd be fun if you did too :)

I sent it with out thinking. I quickly got a text back.

Emerson: Yeah sure, just be preapeard for my brothers to be asses. I'll tell Seb to wait for us both after school.

Melanie: Ahaha, I'll kick their asses if they say anything.

I smiled at my phone and put it back in my pocket.

After what felt like an eternity school was out. I went to my locker to grab my jacket and then I went out to the front of the school to see Seb leaning against his car talking to Remington. "Oh I see we're inviting boys over after school now?" Remington said and laughed when I got to them. "Stop you idiot, promise you won't be an huge ass all night." I said nudging Rem. Sebastian scoffed "We can't promise anything, but we'll try." I put my hands over my face.

I feel someones arm around me, When I looked up I see Emerson standing next to me. "Keep it in your pants bro" Remington giggled. Emerson took his arm off me and went to fight Remington, I just laughed. Remington was running around with Emerson after him. "C'mon idiots let's go." Sebastian said.

Remington sat in the front seat and me and Emerson in the back. "No funny business when we're not looking" Sebastian said, him and Remington bursted out laughing. I just shook my head looking out the window. I felt Emerson grab my hand and I squeezed it tight.
