Silent Memories (Emery Scott)

Chapter Eleven:

Emery Scott~

I couldn't even describe the feeling I had in the pit of my stomach; it was something I never experienced before. The way my lips melted with his were like they were made for each other, I craved more.

His forehead rested gently against mine after our lips finally parted only the sounds of our pants and beating hearts echoed. In this moment, this very moment I felt incredible. I didn't feel the pain of that night, I didn't feel empty or lonely. I felt strong.

"You don't know how long I have been waiting to do that" he whispers into my hair placing a kiss on my head. Hearing him say this made me feel alive.

"Why" I breathed looking up at him. Why had he wanted to kiss me, why did he bring me here?

His soft hand stroked my face until his fingers were under my chin, lifting it up until our lips touch again. There was something about kissing him that made me feel secure and safe, like no matter what I feel a simple kiss could numb the pain I know that's silly I do, but it's true.

"There's something about you, that I crave Emery" he whispers, I don't know why he's talking so quietly but his voice in the low tone was beautiful.

"Really? Because the first time I ever spoke to you you told me you wouldn't be staring at me" I didn't mean for my words to come out harsh but I knew they did.

"I didn't mean it Emery"

"Then why did you humiliate me like that? That same night you did a 180 and tried to have me against the wall saying you knew I wanted you?" I could feel my cheeks flaring red but I pushed on. "Then you come to my rescue only to ignore me for a week like it was nothing" I pushed my hair behind my ears "and then you told me if I told you I didn't want you, that you would leave me be"

"I was going to leave you alone, I swear I was but you turned up outside and I couldn't just ignore you... I just" I cut him off

"You What Axel? I can't keep up" I exclaimed

"Jamie, Fuck Emery he likes you. You are all he talks about. When I saw you with him, something stirred inside I wanted to I don't know put you down" he wanted to make me feel this way? "  I saw you upstairs you looked so innocent so beautiful. I saw how you was staring at me, I thought I would try and see if there was anything there and then you ran out the room, I thought maybe I was wrong and there was nothing. I was going to meet a friend when I saw someone being attacked it wasn't until I pulled him off you that I realised" he trailed off.

The sun begins to bloom on the horizon, golden petals stretching ever outwards into the rich blue. It is the brilliant flower of the sky that warms our days. It is the invitation to a new day a better day. We sat, just watching the sun meet the day, the way the colors blend so beautifully. I could feel tiredness overcoming me but I didn't want to give in, I wanted to stay here with him like this. Just the two of us.

"I shouldn't have brought you here, this was a mistake. We need to go I'll drop you home" he finished. A feeling in my stomach appeared like he had just punched me. I could feel my eyes begin to water but I didn't want to give him the satisfaction of upsetting me so I forced them back.

"A mistake?" I laughed my tongue running over my teeth. "You kissed me? You brought me here and now you say this was a mistake?" I exclaim. "Do you know what Axel fuck you"
