Chasing The Moon Chapter 49
Emerson She and Aspen had finally calmed down enough to come out of the bathroom. But they both stopped dead when they heard Quinn talking. Em didn’t know what to think of all these revelations. Why wouldn’t he just talk to her and tell her how he was feeling? He went to a lot of trouble to try and run her off. And even with him explaining why he did all those things, she didn’t know how she felt about that. When Asher spilled the beans that she was listening, Quinn said “son of a bitch” and turned around slowly. Now would be the perfect time for that talk they needed to have. But in that moment the basement door swung open and Mickey, Sylvia, Elias, Chase and Grey came bounding down the stairs. Everyone was talking at once. Everyone wanted to know what had happened and what was going on. Sylvia and Mickey were throwing questions out like darts to a dart board. So the girls all went into one of the two bedrooms they had down in the basement to talk, and left the boys in th

Em A little while later they all sat around finishing up eating their pizza that had been delivered. They had decided to watch a movie and Mickey threatened them all until they agreed on a horror one. That girl loves her horror movies. Throughout this time Em kept stealing glances at Quinn, and most of those times he was already looking at her. Aspen and Mickey both kept gesturing throwing up and gagging when this happened. After a while everyone tired out. Asher had gone upstairs to sleep in his bed. While Sylvia and Mickey went to sleep in one of the bedrooms downstairs. Grey and Chase both fell asleep on the floor where they’d been laying while watching the movie, and Elias, Em, and Aspen were all spread out on the sectional. Quinn sat in the recliner next to them. She was about to fall asleep herself when Em heard Quinn clear his throat. She turned and looked at him as he motioned with his head toward the other vacant bedroom. Time to go talk. She nodded and quietly g

QuinnQuinn started into Em’s eyes willing her to understand what he was saying. He was never good discussing feelings. But he wanted her to know… everything. Something had snapped in him that night. Seeing River look at her and smile the way he did…. Quinn was MURDEROUS. He had never felt rage like that in his life. And even though fighting was a big part of him, he didn’t like feeling that angry. It all went back to the feelings she stirred up in him. And sitting here now telling her this story, he started to wonder about his dad. And for the first time ever, he felt like he understood him a little bit, and recognized that they may be more alike than he thought. Em was crying, which he recently discovered he hated seeing. He reached up and wiped a tear away. She was holding on to his hand, willing him to keep telling his story. He then told her about his brother. Huxley had always been quiet but he was happy for the most part. But after that happened to their mom he shu

QuinnQuinn sucked in a quick breath. “Please. Let me save you.”She said. He heard her loud and clear but he couldn’t believe what she said. No one had ever said those words to him. What if …… what if he had said those words to his mom? Or what if his dad would of? What if he had said those words to Huxley? Would any of the bad things have happened? He found himself wishing he had been around when she went through so much.. he wished he could have saved her. Quinn knew her dad had died and from her admission that day outside, she had found him. But he didn’t know the details. He was getting a little overwhelmed with telling his whole story however. He had never had to do this before, anyone he’d cared to know about it, was already around when everything happened. He stared at her now, thinking how strong she was, being here for him after everything she had been through. Their stories, so intertwined, so alike, he knew that in some way he was meant to find her. “I felt lik

EmThey’d been sitting there on the bed talking for ages. Quinn had told her everything. And even though he had hurt her .. so much… she did understand him a lot better now. And she could see that he meant it when he apologized. Because he had been so forthcoming with her, she decided then and there she would return the favor and tell him everything as well. So that’s what she did. She told him all about River, just like she had told the girls and Asher. She told him about her dad and how the guilt ate away at him.. and that he got on drugs too, just like his brother. Em hoped that this would be the last time she had to tell this story. Now the girls and Asher knew everything, and Quinn too. She was surprised their lives had both come with so many similar instances. But then she remembered the first time she ever saw him standing at the theater the night they moved. She had known then that something was connecting them. They talked so long they ended up laying down on th

QuinnQuinn woke up early that morning. He stared over at Em. They’d talked for hours last night. When had he become this person that spent the night with a girl and didn’t even touch her. She was different though……special. But… he still wanted to touch her. Actually. Sleeping beside her and NOT touching her was a new kind of hell he didn’t particularly enjoy. He decided to get up and see if anyone else was awake when his phone rang. It was his dad. Staring at the name on the screen he hesitated. He hadn’t spoken to his dad in ages. He wondered if Hux was home. He knew the date of his release had come and gone but no way was he gonna be around to find out. The phone stopped ringing, then immediately started again. This time he picked up. “Dad?” “Hey son. I’m glad I got you. How’s it going are you okay?”Quinn was not in the mood for small talk with his dad. However, after sharing his story last night and talking with Em.. he was starting to think maybe he had been a litt

EmEm tried not to feel disappointed that Quinn had left without saying goodbye but it crept up anyway. Who was she kidding? Of course she was disappointed.. they’d spent the night telling each other their life stories. Em thought he would have at least woken her up before he left. She had gotten up and went into the other room to see Aspen still asleep on the couch. She looked in the other bedroom and saw the girls were gone too. She went back into the other bedroom to get her purse and look for her phone, and once she found it saw a text from Sylvia. “Just wanted to let you know Mickey and I went home. She’s gotta help her family do some stuff today and I promised mom I’d help out at Tush today. Call me when you get up!”Then there was a text from Mickey….“ I want ALLLL the details. All of them Emerson. Leave NOTHING OUT. “. Em laughed. Although there were no details to give, they only talked all night. But it was a good thing, it needed to happen. She went back into the m

EmRiding a motorcycle was absolutely exhilarating. Em wondered if her mom had been watching out the window.. she hoped not. She didn’t think Carol Parker would be too happy about it. But she felt free. She totally understood what Quinn meant about riding. They’d left Aspens house and drove around the lake. It was beautiful. She had never been on this side of the lake before. The roads curved through the woods and up the side of the mountain. It was completely majestic. After they had been riding for a while they stopped at a little look out point, where you could look down over the town. The town looked so small from up here. But it was a beautiful sight to behold. Em’s legs felt like jelly from being on the back of the bike for so long. They went over and sat on a little bench to take a break for a bit. “So you went home this morning?” She asked him. “Yeah.. I started to wake you but I was coming right back.. but then my dad…”Quinn stopped for a moment…“My dad just l

Em But then the doorbell rang. Em’s stomach did a little flip with nerves. Her mom got up to get the door. She heard them talking in the entry but she couldn’t see anything yet. Her mom was saying “Yes… come in… I was just telling her….” And then a man walked around the corner. Em got up to greet him .. but then.. someone else walked around the corner. Quinn. Her surprise must’ve shown on her face.. she was so happy he was there though. But he didn’t look happy at all. Was he mad that she postponed their date? He just stood there with his hands in his pockets. “Hey! What are you doing here??” She said smiling at him. “Em” her mom said. “This is John … my boyfriend.” He smiled deeply at her and she immediately knew she had seen him before. Wait. Oh god. There’s no way. There is absolutely no fucking way in hell this was happening. “Wait” she said. “This ….” She said pointing to John..”is your boyfriend?”“And this…”. She said looking at Quinn… “is your dad??”“

EmShe and Quinn had planned to go to his house that night, as his dad wasn’t gonna be home. But then all the worry about the outfit, all the planning…. none of it even mattered. Em’s mom told her when she got home that she had a special surprise for her that night. The man she had been seeing was coming over. Em and Sawyer were finally getting to meet him. As much as she wanted to meet the guy.. she didn’t want to do it tonight. “Tonight.. mom? I’ve got plans.”“Well can’t you go out after dinner?” She asked. Em guessed she could. But she had been waiting on this night with Quinn forever. Pushing it back even a couple of hours really sucked. “We had some things we wanted to discuss.” Her mom said. What could her mom and this man possibly need to discuss that included Em? Maybe they were gonna take that trip together after all. She went upstairs to text Quinn that she would be late coming over because her moms boyfriend was coming to supper. Quinn never texted her b

EmThe day finally arrived when Em was getting her stitches out. She had been nervous about it all day for some reason. Her mom was meeting her at the hospital but she still wanted someone to go with her. So the girls all piled into the little small waiting room with Em and her mom.. and the doctor of course. Getting the stitches out in her forehead didn’t hurt too bad.. but the ones in her leg were a different story. Those were staples.. and she had to hang on to Aspen’s hand and squeeze every time they cut one out. Mickey was watching closely. She literally had her head down by Em’s leg. But the soon as the doctor took the first staple out… she gagged and said she was gonna be sick. “This is worse than watching you get that last tattoo ‘Em!”Mickey exclaimed. Em quickly looked up at her mom… who hadn’t known about the ‘Q’ she had gotten… even though it was in plain sight on her hand. She smiled crookedly to her mom and shrugged her shoulders. “Ahhh shit. I did it aga

EmHalloween had come and gone while Em had been in the hospital. She hated that she missed it because it had always been one of her favorite holidays. She and her brother would always dress up and she would take him trick or treating. They hadn’t got to celebrate last year either, because so much was going on. So Em was a little bummed. She had ordered the cutest costume too. It was an ‘80s aerobics outfit. It came with a boombox and everything. She had been especially excited for Quinn to see her in it too. She knew he would love the leotard. At least Sawyer still got to go trick or treating. He had dressed up as Jon Snow. Apparently he had told every person that answered the door that ‘he was the king of the north’. But now the holidays were just around the corner and Em was so exited. It was her absolute favorite time of the year. Her mom had told them she would get out the Christmas tree and decorations that night. And the girls were coming over to help them.

QuinnHe was trying not to throw her down right there in the middle of the fucking entry way where they were still standing, but it was getting hard not to throw her down any and everywhere. He pushed her back against the wall kissing her madly, dominating her mouth with his tongue. She moaned… he pressed his whole body into hers. Just so she could feel what she was doing to him. “Quinn” she breathed. Holy fuck. When she said his name like that, he had to reign in the wild animal inside him. He growled. “Ahhhhh” she was making the most glorious noises. He bit her lip, hard, then sucked it into his mouth running his tongue over it. She was writhing. Pushing her body into his while at the same time pulling on his shirt trying to get him closer. She was still hurt though. Still in pain. He couldn’t be rough with her. He pulled away… looking at her like he wanted to devour her .. and he did. But damn. She still had stitches everywhere. Her ribs were still broken. Her poor

EmThe next couple of weeks came and went. It was getting very cold.. almost snowy. Em loved it. After living in California, snow was a new thing for her. Although she had been skiing and vacationed where it snowed… she had never experienced it from home before. She was getting better every day. Her bruises were healing… her body was getting stronger. She couldn’t wait until she was able to dance again. She had to miss the competition she had practiced so hard for, but she still went and cheered the team on. Em was so proud of Sylvia and the entire group, they placed 2nd out of forty five teams. And that was not an easy feat. She was also proud of Sylvia’s mom… she had started this dance company all on her own when the school decided to cut out dance all together. They’d worked so hard.. and it had paid off. Em had gone back to school… she had a little catching up to do but luckily for her the girls had been bringing her assignments home so she wasn’t too far behind. She had

EmThe next day as promised Quinn came and got her again. They went through the same ritual.. he carried her up the stairs. She breathed in his cologne. He joked that she was a horny little shit… she bit him on the ear for that comment. But today they pulled up outside a hair salon. Em grinned so big she felt like her face would explode…. And it might because grinning that much really hurt. She got her hair washed and dried… it felt like heaven. Then she got it cut off… it was little above her shoulders when they finished and she loved it. She looked at Quinn expectantly…..“It’s not as much to grab on to and pull but I’m make do”.Em’s eyes got wide as everyone in the hair salon heard this. She stared at him.. he winked at her and smirked. He was literally killing her. Later that night the girls were at her house for a sleepover. It was the end of the week. Em was improving more every day. But she was still in a lot of pain. She would be glad when she could get all the

EmThey finally made it to their destination…. Which happened to be the tattoo place where Em and the girls had gone. “You’re getting another tattoo?” She asked him. “Yes. But this one is special.. so I needed you to come with me.”Quinn wouldn’t let her look at the tattoo until it was completely finished. She had sat there in the room with him watching the whole time, but not being able to see it. He got it on his arm, right on the forearm spot she had been admiring just a few moments ago. When he was finally finished he walked over to Em to show her. He watched her face careful as she looked down on his arm. Em was shocked. She couldn’t speak .. “Quinn” she whispered. There on his right arm in the same spot as the ones on his left arm…… was another set of eyes. Whereas his other arm held his moms eyes, this arm now held hers. That’s why he needed her to come so the tattoo artist could discreetly watch her and draw her eyes. He made them look so beautiful …. And lookin
Chasing The Moon Chapter 89
EmIt was cold and rainy out that day, Em found herself wishing it would snow. She imagined herself frolicking outside, throwing snowballs and building snowmen. So she had become a crazy person in watching the weather channel constantly. Yeah… she needed to get off the couch. Quinn was right she was a couch potato. Although it was through no fault of her own. She shooed Quinn out of her room as she grabbed some sweat pants to put on. Her leg was still very sore, and she didn’t like anything rubbing her stitches from surgery. She threw on her Uggs, and a long sleeve cropped shirt. Then she grabbed her puffer coat and looked in the mirror. “Oh ma geez” she said. Her hair, a mess .. and her face still very bruised. The stitches coming down her forehead looked the worst though. Why on earth Quinn would want to be seen in public with her… she had no idea. A few months later he had had to be She ended up throwing her hair in a messy bun on top of her head…. Once again revisiting
