EDITED

Chapter 11- The Date

After another 15 minutes, Parker parked the car in the parking area near Starbucks but all the shutters of the cafe were down. Where were we going?

"Are we going to Starbucks?" I asked.

"So you finally guessed it." Parker smiled.

"Sorry to burst you bubble, the cafe is closed."

"Just wait and watch." He smirked.

As we went to the cafe, a man pulled open the shutter of the entrance and we walked inside. Starbucks is my favorite place. I can come here anytime! But that wasn't the reason for my happiness.

It was what I saw. The entire area was empty and only one table was placed in the centre along with two chairs. The rest of the place with filled with red and white balloons. Soft music played in the background too! It was lovely!

"Beautiful." I gasped.

"Not more than you."

Parker pulled out the chair for me and i sat on it. Once I was comfortable, he made his was to his own chair. After we settled down, the waiter got Parker and I twenty five coffee shorts each.

"25 shorts for you and 25 for me. All of them of different flavours." Parker said.

"I have always wanted to do that!" I squealed.

"Cheers to our first date." I said rasing the first cup.

"Cheers for an amazing night." Parker said rasing his cup.

Just like that we drowned in coffee. After fifty cups, we were a bit high you could say. We were both munching on some snacks when Parker had an idea.

"Let's play 21 questions." He said.

"So what's your favorite colour?" I asked.

"Blue."

"Mine is black."

"Will you dance with me?"

"Y-yes" I blushed.

We got up from the seat and soft music played in the background. The lights dimmed and the game of 21 questions disappeared into thin air. With his hands on my waist and my arms around his neck, everything around blurred.

"You look stunning." Parker said his breath fanning my face.

I shifted my gaze from his eyes to his lips. Then everything happened very fast. Our arms strangled each other and his lips met mine. I swear it felt like heaven. I felt so warm in his arms. We kissed furiously but when I started exploring his abs he stiffened and stopped.

"Emi it is just our first date and you are already falling for my chams?" Parker smirked as he pulled back.

"Shut up!" I groaned. He was called bad for a reason

"Come on its going to be eleven. Let's get you home because I don't want my balls to be cut off by your brother." Parker stated.

"Scared are we?" It was my turn to smirk.

"Whatever floats your boat." He said walking towards his car.

Parker dropped me home and after a quick kiss in my garden, he left. Ethan? He was fast asleep on the couch waiting for me to return. I swear this guy sleeps more than me.

I got into my room and sat down on the bed. That's when I heard taps on my window. I moved to open the window and found none other than Lucas Henswood. Wait what?

"Oh good Lord! What are you doing here?! How did you climb!?? This window is on the first floor!" I blabbered.

I gasped because that's when I saw the pain written all over his face and the condition of his arm which was heavily bleeding. He needed stitches for sure.

"Let me in please." He requested.

"Fine." I sighed and let him in.

"Can you get my wounds cleaned up? I can't go to the hospital and I know you have done nursing classes."

I actually have done them. But how does he know about all this? I had no clue. So I just nodded and got the first aid stuff. After cleaning his wounds, taking care of the bruises on his arms and chest and stitching his arm, I was done.

"I'll leave then?" His statement was more like a question. Maybe as if I would tell him to wait or something.

"Sure." I answered and he left. So many questions I had in mind but somehow I knew he wouldn't answer them.

I changed into my PJs and pulled the blanket over me. Soon I was fast asleep dreaming about a happy family I could have had if my dad wasn't a jerk and my mom didn't have Cancer.

"Wake up Emily." A voice said.

"Gosh let me sleep in peace!" I groaned.

"Emily we are already 10 minutes late!" Ethan yelled so I quickly woke up and got dressed.

Ethan looked serious as we sat in the car. Something was on his mind but it looked as if he didn't want to speak of it. He was hiding his sorrow.

"When are you going to mom?' He asked.

"I don't know. I can't see her die like that." I said.

"Even I can't Emi but she needs you and me so you have to go see her. You know she has only little time left." Ethan said.

"We'll go after school?" I asked.

"Sure."

The school day was pretty crappy if you ask me. I didn't see Lucas and by the way I'm back to ignoring him. Parker and I had a talk or two but Lucy and Ashley irritated me for the details of the date. Thank gods for Katie who is on my side.

Ethan drove me straight to mom's hospital and I prepared myself for it. He guided to to her room and then left us alone for some time.

"Em, I'm so glad to see you." Mom smiled.

"Mom" I smiled.

She looked so different. Her skin had gone pale and her long beautiful hair were cut short. She looked sick but pretty at the same time.

"Emily we have things to discuss."

"What mom?"

"You and I both know that I don't have a lot of time. A month or two at most. So I need you to be strong. You brother is a male and males have a problem of emotion suppressing. I want you to help him cry. You have to take over everything Em and I know you can do it."

"I will mom, I will."
