Teacher's Girl (Aflyingwhale)
Chapter 39: Game Start
EMMA’s POV :
"You want me to go to the dance with Tyler.Fine.I said yes to him,"
I announced as soon as lan opened his apartment door.
"Okay, come in?"he gave me a puzzled look but I just shove past him.
"What's going on, lan? Why did you tell me to go to the dance with Tyler? Are you having second thoughts about us?"
I just spilled all my thoughts out as soon as I walked into the living room.
"Whoa, slow down," he said as he closed the door.
"Tell me.Honestly,"
I pressed again.
He looked at me like I was an amusing sight.
He smiled a soft smile and reached for my arms, but I backed away quickly.
"Baby girl,"he said softly, his hand reached for my face and he said, "I am not having second thoughts about us,"
"So, what is it then?"
He let out a deep sigh before pulling me close to his chest.
I relented and let him wrap me in his arms.
He rested his chin on the top of my head and I snuggled into his neck.
"Emma, I don’t want you to miss out on the experiences that a high school senior should be experiencing, just because you're with me,"
he paused for a second before saying, "And also, if the school sees that you're involved with boys your age, that wouldn't be so bad too,
"I pulled away slightly and narrowed my eyebrows at him , You're afraid people might notice something’s going on between us?"
"We can never be too careful, love,"
"And this has nothing to do with you regretting your decision to be with me?"
"None whatsoever,"he stated with full certainty.
"You sure?"I wanted more reassurance.I was feeling horrible all day long because of all these doubts.I wanted it to go away.
"Emma,"he said softly, "You are still the best decision I've ever made in my life and I stand by it one hundred and two thousand percent,"
I couldn't stop the smile forming on my face.
He caressed my cheek with his fingers and let out a small smile.
"We just need to lay low around the school.Okay?"he asked.
"Okay,"I breathed.
"Go and have fun at the dance,"he leaned down and planted a soft kiss on my lips.
Pulling away slightly, he then said, "But not too much fun,"
"Yes, sir,"I smiled as I kissed him back.
A week passed since that day and lan and I were doing great.
We kept our interactions at school a minimal, and I still spent whatever time I had left hanging out with him in his apartment after hours.
Before I knew it, the homecoming dance was upon us.
This year’s theme was the Roaring Twenties.
Tiff, Carrie, and I got all dressed up Great Gatsby style and we were excited about this dance.
Thinking back, the homecoming dance was a big turning point in our relationship.
That was when I found lan’s sketchbook and his drawing of me.
That was the moment I knew he felt something for me too.
"Oh Em, I love your headpiece,"
Carrie said as she joined me in the mirror.
She was dressed to the nines in her red flapper dress and long pearls.
