All I heard was screams and then I opened my eyes and saw that Tony had shot himself in the head.

Emery threw herself into my arms, relieved but sad.

"I love you!" She said kissing me on the lips.

Then she let go of me and looked at me with sad eyes then walked off.

The next few hours were long and painful, police asking us questions, paramedics checking us and news reporters asking all sorts of questions.

School was cancelled for a whole week and in that time I didn't hear a word from Emery, I was a bit worried.

The next day school resumed as usual and as soon as I saw Emery I walked up to her.

"Hey!" I said smiling.

"Hi." She said bluntly avoiding eye contact with me.

"Everything okay?" I said again worried.

"I don't know, is it?' She said looking at me sternly.

"What are you talking about?

"Do you love me?" She said.

"Where did that come from?" I said leaning against the lockers.

"Well that answers that question!" She said walking off.

"Emery wait a second!" I said calling after her, but she had already left.

What was with that question? I mean, of course I love her, it's Emery. Wait, this must be about the school shooting when she said I love you and I was silent. I need to show her how much she means to me.

I walked into Emery's history class in a suit and bow tie with a single rose in my hand, this was it. I walked into the class and stood on the desk in the front row making eye contact with her.

"Roman what do you think your doing?" Mr Taylor said.

"Something I should have done a long time ago! Emery Whitehill, you mean the absolute world to me and I don't know what I would do without you. You're the reason I smile when getting out of bed, because I know that through all the bad things that could happen, I will see you. I love you Emery, always have, always will."

Everyone just sat there, speechless, and then I saw a smile creep up on Emery's face.

"That's enough Roman!" Mr Taylor said escorted me out of the room then returning.

I walked to my locker then heard someone running down the hallway, I turned around and Emery pressed her lips against mine.

"I love you too!" She said smiling as she left my lips.

She placed her lips close to my ear and whispered, "by the way, you look hot in a tux."

She kissed my cheek then walked back to class.

Hey everyone. So this might look like the end. I running out of ideas but I'm willing to give it shot if I can get some more reviews. Thanks so much to the people who have replied and hopefully this is not the end, just a new beginning! xx
