Chapter 2 : Not What He Wants.

Emily's P.O.V

I run down the stairs when I hear Eric call me. All night I kept thinking why am I not the one he has fallen for? Why is Alex so special? What does she have that I don't? What makes her better than me? Why not me?!

We all leave the hotel and everyone starts putting their bags in our rental car and all I am doing is staring at Alex. The same question spins in my head! Why her!?

Then I take a quick look at Eric just to see him looking at her with so much affection in his eyes and asking her if he could help her with her bags.

I felt a pang of jealousy inside my heart and before I knew I said these words out loud "You know Eric, she is not the only girl who needs help right now"

Oh crap! 

My eyes widen when i realize what i had just done. everybody stops what they're doing and turn to look at me. Eric looks at me with that half angry-half confused adorable look of his.... Just before I start drooling over his hotness I remember what happened last night! 

I promised him saying I would help him! What the hell am I even doing right now!?

"Here, let me help you with that" said Ron as he picked up my bags and shoved them in the car then gave me a smile like he always does. I smile back at him and sit in the car .

*What the hell do you think you were doing?! You idiot !* I say to myself and slam my head against my palm. I don't know but even the idea of seeing Eric with someone else makes me cringe.

We arrive the the airport in nearly 30 minutes. The drive to the airport felt like 30 years! it was a long, silent and a very very awkward ride.. All because of me!

We enter the airport with all our stuff and arrive to the baggage and security counter. The girl gave me a big smile as she handed me my boarding pass "Enjoy your isle seat ma'am"

Wait. What!? 

"I am sorry, but I want a window seat.. can you please change my seat?"

"Sorry ma'am but that is not possible"

"What!? What do you mean not possible! change my seat!" i almost yell at her. 

"I'm afraid I can't do that ma'am ..Please proceed I have many people waiting in the line."

What the fuck!

This little devil! how could she do this to me!?

Oh karma! Thank you so much!

As we board into our flights I realise we don't even have seats together. All of us are scattered in the plane. Well, this means a less awkward ride home. yay!

It's been an hour and I am bored ... too bored to even watch two and a half men! I really think sleep is the best option right now.

Just as I am about to fall asleep I feel really strong hands holding my wrist tightly and pulling me out of my seat! before I could react I pushed into the small airplane toilet and when I open my eyes I see Eric , fuming with anger .

Oh shit !

"Eric ! buddy! wh-what are you doing here? I-I mean what are we doing in the toilet? feel scared to poop alone, eh?"

WHAT A FAIL TRY ! WAY TO GO EMILY !

"Shut up before I say something which will ruin our friendship forever!" He said gritting his teeth. I could feel his anger even though he tried to calm himself a bit.

"Would you like to explain?" he said slamming his palm on the toilet door !

This is not good!

"Look I am sorry.. I didn't mean it the way you think I did. I was joking and I came out a bit serious. Trust me!"

What a big fat liar I am! but my words seemed to calm him down. Magically my lie worked.

"Okay" he said with a low soft voice and left the toilet.

Phew! that was easy!
