Chapter 20: Words
I quickly looked away feeling a sting in my chest which was stupid of me. What do you expect Emma? That a drop-dead hot guy like this was single? Keep DREAMING! He totally has a girlfriend, maybe she doesn’t go to school here.
Finally, his ’Angel’ stopped calling and the car fell into a hot silence again luckily I recognized the block we turned in now, we were almost at my house, I couldn’t wait to leave.
The car stopped, and foolish enough of me, I remained glued to my seat. My grip tightened on my bag, what exactly was I waiting for? Maybe I should just say thank you and leave.
"Tha-"
"Emma"
We started at the same time, I finally darted my eyes to his and they were soft as they looked at me. I didn’t know for how long but we just looked at each other. But they hardened once again.
"Who’s Owen to you?"
I frowned, I wasn’t expecting that question. "H-He’s my friend" I shrugged.
He nodded, his eyes back to the window, he said something under his breath but I didn’t hear him, but then the realization struck me.
