(4:30 p.m.)

E-Boy: Meet me in the library in twenty minutes.

Me: What?

E-Boy: I want to hold you.

E-Boy: Meet me in twenty minutes.

Me: But I thought you don't want me to know who you are...?

E-Boy: I don't. Not yet, and you won't... Just trust me okay?

Me: Okay...

...

Me: Where are you?

E-Boy: In the back.

       I let out a shaky breath as I slipped my phone into my back pocket and wrapped my arms around my waist. I don't know why I was so nervous. He even said I wasn't going to be able to meet him... I didn't know what to expect.

"E?"

       I jumped in surprised when a strong pair of arms shot out of no where and wrapped around my back.

"Sh, Emmy."

"You scared me."

"I'm sorry."

       Then I was turning around quickly and burying my face into the thick sweater that covered his chest. 

"I got you, beautiful."

       Then I cried.
