#Chapter47

At Jonas' house, we clean up and Brandon gives me clothes to sleep in. When I leave the bathroom dressed, I enter his room to find it empty. Hearing noises downstairs, I assume he's just grabbing something, so I sit down on the bed to wait for him. Utterly lost in joy, I fall back and smile and blush and every second that passes, my heart beats faster. Brandon's going to walk through that door and he's going to come hold me.

When a figure appears, I perk up, but instead of Brandon, Jonas is standing in the doorway. Yanked back to reality, I scramble up, but before I can speak he asks, /"What are you doing?/"

Brandon appears right behind him, looking somewhat defeated. /"Jonas—/"

/"No. No more Jonas. You two are a mess./" He looks right at me. /"Really, Emma? Really?/"

/"Please, everything is good right now. Don't ruin it,/" I say.

/"I'm sure I won't have to./"
