Into You (COMPLETE)

Chapter 25

CHAPTER 25:

Emma's POV:

I wake up with groan. My whole body hurts, my neck and my legs are the worst. Turns out I fell asleep on the couch in a very weird way and in my work clothes. It's about 11 in the morning and the sun is shining through the curtains. It's so bright but I get up against my will. I go for a bath because I somewhat stink.

I go straight to the bathroom, brush my teeth and sit in the tub for a bath. For quite some time, I just lay in the tub like a dead person. Taking in the smell of the lemon candles, the roses and sips of my coffee.

The bell starts ringing furiously. I get scared, what if it's him but I brush off the thought. I grab my bathrobe and leave my wet hair just like that. I grab the hair straightener on the basin and walk outside, ready to attack. I secure my bathrobe so it doesn't fall while fighting and then open the door. In the hurry, I forget to look through the peephole. Can't go back in time now.

I swing the door open, one hand with a straightener in air, in a white very short bathrobe and a face mask on my face. Jeremy starts shouting and even I start screeching when he shouts. I shut up and even he shuts up. He just looks at me weirdly. Thank god nobody lives on my floor but I am sure the whole building heard us. I pull him in and lock the door.

"What are you doing?" I ask him.

"I should be the one asking you that" he says and I give him a confused look.

"You haven't picked up my calls since yesterday. Everyone Jules and everyone tried calling you this morning so I came to check up on you" he explains himself. I feel really dumb now that I haven't checked my phone even once. Usually it's the first thing I see in the morning.

"Uhh.. funny story. I fell asleep on the couch and then woke up and went for a bath" I see and scratch my head sheepishly. I chuckle a little awkwardly but he doesn't laugh. He looks at me and I shut up.

"Sorry. I was very tired and didn't see anything" I tell him and look down. I feel his fingers under my chin and push it up. I have nowhere to look but straight into his eyes.

"You don't have to apologise, we all were just concerned. You never know what could happen" he says and gives me a smile.

"Put a message on the group or call Jules, they were really worried" he adds and I do as he says. He takes a seat on the couch and I take a seat beside him. I grab my phone and start texting.

"Umm.. could you put on clothes first?" He asks me so adorably. I have an idea.

"Why? Is it distracting you?" I ask him and lick my bottom lip for more effect. I can see his Adams apple as he gulps.

"No" he says but he can't decide whether to look at my lips or my barely covered legs. I hum along with him and place my forefinger on his chest and drag it own. He is wearing a dark grey t-shirt with black jeans. I can feel his abs through the shirt. I run my fingers along his ab lines and start going lower. He grabs my finger.

"You don't want to go down there" he says with a serious face. It looks like he has an idea as he has a devious smile on his face. I start backing up on the couch.

"What ever you are thinking, do not, I repeat, do not act upon it." I say and he keeps coming closer. I reach the end of the couch and his smile widens. Within seconds I am trapped between his body and the couch.
