“Here wear these.”
I stopped, but didn’t turn.
“Come on Em…”
“I don’t want to talk about it Zander.”
“I’m sorry okay? I should have kept it cool, but I just couldn’t.”
I looked up at him as he tried to touch me, but I backed away.
“Just leave me alone, okay?”
“Baby girl, you know I would never hurt you.”
I smirk
“When have I ever?”
I looked at him and saw her at my closet entrance. She smiled, but when she saw my face, it quickly disappeared.
I shook my head and turned back around.
“Just go.”
“Em…”
“Go and take her with you!”
“Em…”
“GET OUT!”
But he didn’t. He just wrapped his arms around me making me lose control once more.
“I love you…I love you, no matter what I love you.”
I held onto him tighter and dug my head into his neck, smelling him.
“I promise I won’t ask, but please don’t push me away.”
“I’m sorry.”
He squeezed me and kissed my shoulder.
“I love you baby girl.”
“I love you too.”
“Forever?”
“Forever and ever and to infinity and beyond.”
He laughed making me laugh at the same time and slowly let me go.
“Come on fix your face and I’ll walk you down.”
I nodded and went back into my bathroom.
XAVIER’S POV
Finally! Man that was the longest flight ever! I ran to the car that was waiting for me and made them take me to the hotel as fast as they could. I could already hear my parents complaining about how I was always late for everything, but I just wouldn’t get away from her room. Just thinking about her made me turn down the hot water down before I began something that I knew she could only finish.
Once I got my room, I quickly took a shower and put on my best suit then ran out.
“Welcome.”
“Hi.”
I got out and ran in.
I was suddenly swarmed by the large house. It was definitely a family home with high ceilings which were held by large pillars throughout the house and a large stair case leading to the rooms. It was modern for such a pack of this one.
“Dude seriously!”
I looked back down and smiled.
“Hey man!”
I made my way over down the small steps and hugged on my best friends.
“What up Cork!”
“Still with that stupid name I see.”
I pulled away when I saw my brother with dad and an older gentleman which I was assuming it was the future father in law
“Look, I’ll talk to you later man.”
