| The wind was howling loudly, with the rain pounding into the earth feriously. Emma got up from her comfy spot on the couch, as she heard a loud pounding coming from the front door. She wondered who would venture out into this storm, so late at night. �What do you want?� Emma asked sourly, when she discovered who it was. He was dripping wet. She watched as a rain drop dripped down from his long eye lashes. �Don�t give me that pitiful face.� �Emma,� he whispered hoarsly, reaching out for her. She quickly stepped back, before he could touch her, knowing if he did, all would be forgotten. �Nuh-uh, remember Justin? You broke up with me.� �I�m sorry,� Justin said, a tear running down his cheek, or maybe it was a rain drop. �I really messed up.� Emma turned away from him, not wanting him to see her eyes well up with tears. �You know, you can�t do this! You can�t tell me that I mean nothing to you, then now just show up on my doorstep, when you want to get me back!� �I know, I�m sorry,� Just whispered, stepping up behind her. He put his hands on her shoulders, placing gentle kisses on her neck, leading up to her ear, leaving small rain drops on her along the way. In her ear, he whispered, �I love you.� At the sound of those three simple words, Emma could fell herself getting weak in the knees. It was an effect he had on her since he first said them to her. She could feel herself just melt into his arms. But she could not allow it to be that easy for him. She jerked away from his hold, to stare him in the eyes. �Why are you here?� she shoke in barely above a whisper. �I finally relized hom much my life was hell without you,� Justin sincerely said. This time she knew that they were tears in his eyes, not just the rain. �Don�t,� Emma whispered, her tears running down her face. �Don�t what?� �Don�y say those things and make me fall back in love with you.� �But that was the plan,� Justin whispered, bringing a hand up to her cheek, rubbing his thumb over her soft skin. Emma closed her eyes, knowing what came next. He bent his head, closing his own eyes as he slowly brought his head towards her, till their lips made contact. |
