Emily's POV

"Wha-what are you doing here?" I say standing up out of shock. There's no way, no way that he heard me. How did I not notice that it was him who sat down next to me? This can't be happening right now! Tyler also stood up and took a step closer to me. 

"I saw you running from your room and I figured it had something to do with Skyler." He said putting his hands in his pockets. We stood in silence for a while, Tyler wouldn't meet my gaze and I was too scared to say something. The wind picked and blew Tyler's hair away from his face. He looked hurt and just as I was gonna say something, he beat me to the punch. 

"Why didn't you say something?" He said, his gaze meeting mine. I was suddenly frozen to the ground, his eyes held so much pain and here I was not able to find my voice. His brown eyes bore into mine and a tear fell down my cheek. "Because it was too late." I whispered, I looked down at the ground and I couldn't stop the words that came flying out of my mouth. "Skyler always gets what she wants, doesn't matter who she hurts." I said in a low voice. "When she started going out with you, I thought it was just going to be one date. But, things started getting serious and I knew it was too late. Skyler was happy with you and I didn't want to ruin that, so I took a step back." I didn't want to meet his eyes in case I was right. 

"What about your happiness? What about mine?" He says taking another step closer to me. I forced myself to meet his eyes and he was confused, he was so close to me his scent was engulfing me. His eyes traveled around my face, looking for the answers I was so scared of saying. "You were happy too." I said, sadness written all over my face. He took one more step towards me and his figure was towering above me. He tucked a strand of hair behind my hair and I could swear I felt sparks running through my body. I brushed it off thinking it was just the wind or how much I liked Tyler that I badly wanted him to be my mate. "I wasn't happy, Em." He said letting his arm fall to his side. "We were constantly fighting and she swore that you had something to do with it. I didn't want anything to happen to you. I see the way she treats you Emily, you deserve better than that. I can give you that." He said in almost a whisper. My heart stopped beating for a moment, my mind was going everywhere and I had to take a deep breath before I could talk. 

Did Tyler admit that he liked me too? No, there's no way. 

"Wh-what do you mean?" I asked, fear laced in my voice. I was hoping that this wasn't a dream or that I was dead and I was imagining the one thing I wanted the most. Without Tyler knowing, I pinched myself on the arm to make sure that this was real, that I was having this conversation with Tyler. 

"Don't you get it? It's you, it's always been you." Tyler said and before I could say something he cupped my face in his hands and kissed me. For a moment, time stopped. I could only hear my heart beat and feel how fast it was going. I kissed him back and I felt the sparks that I so badly hoped to feel. It coursed my entire body and for a second I thought I was going to explode. I wrapped my arms around his neck and he wrapped his around my waist. Suddenly, everything felt right. Being here with him was exhilarating and exciting, his hands sent my body on fire and I felt as if I couldn't get enough of him. I pulled him closer to me and his hands were tangled in my hair. He kissed me with such passion but so gently, almost as if he was afraid I would break in his arms. After what felt like hours, we pulled away and breathed heavily. The sparks were still coursing through my body and his fingers lightly traced my spine until they rested at my waist. 

"You're mine, Emily." He said in a husky voice. His eyes were hungry and I could tell he was holding back on marking me. His eyes traveled from my eyes, to my lips, to my neck. He licked his lips and brought his gaze back to mine. He was waiting for my approval. This time, I wasn't going to hold back, I was going to get what was mine. For the first time, I wanted to be selfish. I was meant to be with Tyler and who knows how sooner we could've been together if it wasn't for Skyler. I lightly kissed his lips and pulled away just enough for him to hear me whisper.

"Then make me yours." I whispered. He gave one more kiss before his kissed trailed over my cheek, my jawline and finally to my neck. His hold on my waist tightened and I wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling him closer to me. He kissed my neck and lightly bit it before marking me. I felt the pain shoot up from my neck and darkness slowly took over me.
