DOMINICK © [ENGLISH EDITION]

Chapter eight

"Because I love you..."

She said it... she loves me... Emily loves me.

"There is something in you that makes me love you," she said, looking at me with love, in her eyes I could tell that it was something I was feeling, was it out of pity for what just happened? It was as if she were discovering new things with me, as if she were trying to discover me and discover what he felt close to me.

"Sorry for being an idiot," I said with my head down.

"Hey, no. Quiet." She put her hand on my face, which I held tighter with mine. It was so delicate and soft that I wanted to be holding her hand all day. We all have bad days, there you have your friend, you just met me, but I want to be for you and be with you. Voucher?

I nodded and hugged him. Thank you, really thank you.

The bike was lying in the middle of some almost withered grass that was there. With force I put it back to two rubbers and turned it on. Emily got in when the engine started and I invited her to hold onto me. Her arms wrapped around my waist, I couldn't explain the inner peace I felt having her so close to me and, likewise, without moving away from her, I wanted to venture to know that mystery that she hides.

We started and, after ten minutes of peace, we arrived at the school. After parking the bike, we entered holding hands, it was a new experience for me, but that insignificant act made me feel confident, brave. I was in front of my classroom, she and I said goodbye, I did not want to let go of her hand, I wanted to continue feeling alive, I was late in class, but I still went in.

"Good day. I saluted as I entered."

"Good night, Dominick." The teacher answered me. It was Raquel, the teacher I had sex with.

"I'm sorry, I had problems ..." I said sitting in my usual place. Ethan was in the back and I glanced at him with a defiant look for not saving a spot for me.

"Agree. Did you do his homework? "She asked, looking at all of us.

"Yes." Some answered.

"Well, get organized. They have an exam."

"WHAT ?!" they all yelled in unison.

"This will be a long day ..."

I brought my hands to my face expressing frustration, with my eyes closed I saw someone's hand come quickly towards me, I opened my eyes and there was nothing. Only the light of the lamps on the ceiling of the institute. What's going on?

As I left, I met Ethan outside the living room, I saw Mia walking towards the bathrooms, we had not spoken for days: "Em, Dom." Ethan calls me as he approached me like Emily.

"What's wrong uncle?"

"Well, I don't have any more classes until the afternoon." I'll take a walk ... - she smiled. I looked at him, narrowing my eyes in amusement, inquiring, because I knew he was hiding something. Okay, I'll tell you ... It's with the girl from the Night Club. He confessed.

"You're very easy to convince ..." I laughed. I rubbed her hair and hugged him. I'll be with Emily. "I released the hug, looked at him and she smiled.
