Emmeline just rolled her eyes in response. There was really no need for a response. He knew what he'd done and now her parents knew that there was likely more between the two of them. Or they'd assume as such. Honestly, she didn't know what was really going on no matter how much she had enjoyed that kiss.

"What do you mean?" she asked, looking at him curiously. She knew he hadn't just been in the area, not with the way he'd looked when she'd found him at the door but he hadn't given her a straight answer why he was there either.
