"okay guys...im gonna take a shower," emma said as she finished helping brian and nick put the extra food away.
"okay...we'll be in the basement, nick wants me to kick his butt at pool," brian said.
nick rolled his eyes,"yes and you are totally dillusional."
emma laughed and went upstairs. she finished her shower about 20 minutes later and dressed in baby blue drawstring pants and a white tank top and went downstairs. the guys had finished their pool game and were sitting on the floor in front of the tv playing a video game.
"dont you ever get sick of that?" emma asked sitting on the edge of the pool table.
"yeah...like right now," brian said shutting off the game.
"hey! you know you only did that cause i was winning," nick said smirking at him.
brian rolled his eyes,"uh huh." he surfed through the channels looking for something to watch.
"oh yeah, em i have something for you, ill be right back," nick said and ran upstairs into the house.
"bri do you know what it is?" emma asked.
brian shrugged and shook his head,"nope...ooh jerry springer," he flopped down on the couch on his stomach to watch the show.
emma rolled her eyes,"quality entertainment at its finest."
"damn skippy," brian said and laughed at his own cheesy remark.
"bri sweetheart, your intelligence amazes me,"emma said as nick came back downstairs.
he handed her the disney bag,"i hope you like it."
"when did you buy this?" she asked taking the bag.
he smiled,"while we were leaving, just open it..."
she took the pooh bear out and let out a little squeak,"nick its adorable! thank you!" she hopped off the table and threw her arms around him.
he laughed and put his arms around her,"im glad you like it."
brian glanced over at them,"awww how cute...."
emma let go of nick and walked over to brian and smacked him in the head,"shut up brian."
nick stuck his tongue out at him,"so there brian."
brian glanced at his watch,"isnt it about time you went home NICKY?"
nick rolled his eyes,"...actually it is...hey em, come with me?"
she nodded,"behave brian, dont start throwing furniture...if you feel the need throw the rat..."she said nodding to tyke curled up in a ball sleeping by his feet.
brian made a face and emma laughed,"love you too dear."
she followed nick upstairs to the front door. he opened the door and turned around,"um...em?"
"hmm?" she asked leaning against the door frame.
he looked down, suddenly facinated with his shoes,"...um...are you busy tomorrow?"
"i dont think so, why?"
he looked up at her blushing slightly,"...would you want to go out or something?"
"with you?" she asked a little surprised.
he turned a little more red,"um...yeah...me..."
"sorry....i was just a little shocked that you were asking me out...sure...id love to."
he smiled and let out a breath he had been holding for who knows how long,"okay...ill call you tomorrow...bye." he kissed her on the cheek and walked out to his car.
emma closed the door and leaned back against it,"...okay...nick just asked me on a date....BRIAN!!" she screamed and ran downstairs.
"hmm...what?"
"nick just asked me out!" she half screamed.
brian smiled,"thats nice...where are you guys going?"
she shrugged,"i dont know..."
"...pray it isnt the arcade...he thinks just cause its his fav place every other person on earth should love it."
she laughed,"okay...im going to bed...nite bri..."she kissed him on the cheek and went upstairs to bed.
