Chapter 38

Emily laughed at my comment. One of those laughs that lit up her entire face and caused her brown eyes to twinkle. I couldn't help it, I felt my lips pulled into a responding smile as I watched her. When she stopped laughing, her eyes connected with mine again and for some unknown reason, I felt my heartbeat picked up.

I immediately cleared my throat, trying to reign in this unknown feeling. What was that about anyway? I know there was nothing between us but the fact that we're pretending to date, so why was I feeling like this?

I don't know what it was, but this is really confusing. This is a completely new territory for me.

Pulling me out of my thoughts, Emily spoke again. "Good night Tyler."

I lifted my hand in a wave. "Good night."

She smiled at me once again, before turning and walking into her house.

Rubbing my hand over my face, I walked over to the front door of my house and head inside.

What is really happening to me?
