Emma smiled, happy that Connor was happy. She hugged him around the waist and looked up at him with her cheerful face. "I'm glad that I make you feel that way," she mouthed before kissing him on the cheek with a blush.

Connor smiled in return. Raising his arms and releasing the crutches, he let them rest against his sides as he wrapped his arms around her. Blushing slightly himself, his burst of passionate confidence faded somewhat but still flickered in his eyes. "Thanks."

Emma giggled before slowly pulling away and looking outside. The sun was about to set, signaling the end of a great day. "We should get back home," Emma mouthed as she garbed Connor's crutches and handed them to him.

Connor nodded, adjusting the crutches under his arms with a nod of thanks. After that, he made his way outside of the arcade, feeling satisfied with the great day.

Emma walked next to Connor back to her house with a smile on her face. The only thing that could possibly bother her was the fact that she couldn't hold his rough, warm palm in her tiny delicate one. She sighed but looked up at Connor and gave him a smile. It's settled, she thought as she looked at his handsome face. I'm completely and utterly in love with Connor, Emma admitted to herself with her heart pumping at alarming rates. I wonder if the feeling is mutual...

Connor glanced toward Emma and caught sight of her smile, then returned it with the same warmth that he felt grip his heart everytime he thought about her. Love isn't something I've wanted to think about for a long time. But I think I'm in it again. These feelings are so strong, I can't even control myself sometimes! He shook his head and gave a soft chuckle. Yeah. I recognize these feelings for sure.

Emma frowned when she saw her house coming up ahead. As much as she didn't want to though, she would have to say good night to Connor and sleep the rest of the day away until the next morning. She walked up the stairs on the porch and stopped at her door, turning back towards Connor to give him a smile. "Today was fun," she mouthed as she gave him a hug.

Connor set his crutches against the nearest object, returning the embrace gladly. He gave a soft grunt of agreement, suddenly feeling acutely aware of his increasingly erratic heartbeat. Today was indeed fun. Keeping his voice at a soft tone, he whispered, "I do hope we can do this again sometime." His lips cracked into a smile. "Especially once I can get rid of these damn crutches."

Emma smiled and let go of Connor, giving him one last look before she walked into her house. She rested her back on the door after she closed it and shut her eyes with a sigh. What to do, what to do? she mused as she stood back up and went up to her bedroom to get ready for bed.

Connor snatched the crutches and placed them under his arms, making the short trek to his apartment. Upon walking in, he sighed in content then proceeded to move to stand in front of his bed. Tossing his crutches onto the floor by the bed, he stripped to his boxers and limply fell onto the bed. Wearing a small smile, he fell into a peaceful sleep.

Emma slept a dreamless sleep and when she finally woke up, she felt refreshed and ready for a new day. She hopped in the shower and when she was finished, she decided to look pretty today and grabbed a white summer dress. Emma pulled it on over head and slipped on a pair of white flip-flops to match the outfit. She pulled her hair into a side chignon and checked her face in the mirror before grabbing her bag and leaving to walk to school.

Connor awoke with a sand-like substance in the corners of his eyes and yawned heavily. Using his arms to push himself up, he staggered onto his feet and quickly grabbed his crutches. Setting the crutches against the wall after he moved to his dresser, he threw on the first clothes he saw; like always. A pair of navy blue cargo pants, a white undershirt, and a black button-down. Rolling the sleeves of his button-down to his elbows, he grabbed everything he needed and left his apartment. After stumbling into his truck, he made his way to the school.

Emma frowned when she saw that Connor wasn't at school yet. I suppose I'll just wait for him, she mused as she found a clean spot on the steps and sat down, feeling lost in the crowds of students that were towering over her and heading to their lockers.

Connor fially arrived at school, later than he usually did. Stumbling out of his truck, his gaze immediately went about scanning the crowd of people for Emma. Upon catching sight of her, he made his way over to her as quickly as he could on crutches. Halting in front of her, he smiled apologetically and tilted his head to the right. "Damn crutches make me late."

Emma smiled upon Connor's arrival and smiled, not caring one bit that he was late. As long as he's here, she thought as she stood up and grasped her bag. She brushed off her white dress and looked up at Connor, signaling that she was ready to go.
