Always the Bestfriend Never the Girlfriend (EDITING)

Chapter 22: I couldn't be happier

We weren't even two steps through the doorway when Bailey whipped her head towards us with a smirk.

"Hey..." She says still smirking

"Hi?" I reply shyly

"So...Care to explain...that?" Bailey questions motioning towards Emmett and I's intertwined hands

"Friendship?" I say more as a question than a statement. But as soon as those words left my mouth Emmett ripped his hands from mine and scoffed

"Friendship my ass" He said quietly shaking his head. I immediately went and grabbed his hand missing the warmth and also because I felt bad for basically friend zoning him infront of Bailey.

"Yeah! What Emmett said! Friendship my ass!" Bailey declared confidently fist pumping the air while Kai just watched us with amusement all over his face. 

Oh you're probably wondering why Ethan isn't here right? Ethan ended up getting himself a girlfriend whilst Bailey being in a coma. I thought it was actually good for him to get his mind off of everything. But because of his girlfriend I don't even see him anymore. I actually miss my little ball of sunshine.

"Hello? Nicole?!" Bailey yells trying to get my attention

"Huh-what?" I say shaking my head

"Uh. You kinda zoned out there" Kai says shaking his head smiling

"Don't make fun of me! It's been a hard 8 months for me! Cut me some slack!" I defend myself

"Well duh. It's been a hard 8 months for everyone" Kai says rolling his eyes

"Anyway, what are you and Emmett?" Bailey asks

"What do you mean?" Emmett asks furrowing his eyebrows together in confusion

"Like are you guys together?" Bailey asks in a 'duh tone

"Um let's find out" Emmett says turning to me and getting down on one knee holding my hand

"Em what a-" 

"Nicole Marie Harley will you do the honors of becoming my girlfriend?" Emmett asks cutting me off

I immediately freeze while butterflies erupt in my stomach

"Um Nicole? You okay?" Emmett asks standing up

"Yes!" I say excitedly hugging Emmett

"Yes to being okay? or yes to being my girlfriend?" Emmett asks hugging me back

"To both!" I say and pull back just to kiss him 

"Oh well if that always happens when you're okay, I wonder what happens when you're better than okay..." Emmett says while smirking. 

I blush probably as red as a tomato and punch him slightly

"Yoohoo love birds! Girl who just got out of a coma here! Not being paid attention to by her bestfriends!" Bailey yells ruining the moment

"Sorry Bails" Emmett and I say at the same time and go towards her bed and hug her

"I missed you two crackheads" Bailey says but its muffled from the hug

"Crackheads?" I ask pulling back to look at her

"Yes. Crackheads." She confirms

"Okay then." I say rolling my eyes playfully

A couple of minutes passed by before Bailey asks a question I was expecting sooner or later

"So what'd I miss?" Bailey asks nervously
