Emily's POV:
We stepped out of the house and and got in James' car. It was nice but jays was better. oh great, here I go again thinki about a Jay when I should be thinking about my date, James. He was a nice lad but, I couldn't help but think about Jay when I was with him.. Actually not just him. All the time Jay is constantly on my mind!! And whenever I see James, I see Owen. And that is going to be really weird when we kiss. Ew. The whole car journey was akward. He didn't speak to me at all, not to sound vain or anything but he hasn't even told me that I looked pretty.
We pulled up to a restaurant, it was so posh. Not the sarcasm. It wasn't web a restuarant. He took me to a pub. What mind of guy takes a girl to a pub do their first date?! I wasn't expecting much but at least a restaurant jeez.
We went and sat down in a booth near the back by the toilets... Not the best if places. I'm sure if I was on a date with Jay it would've been nicer, maybe a romantic dinner in some fancy restaurant. Or it could be a nice film, probably avatar, then out to dinner somewhere nice. I don't know, it just seems like that's the type of guy Jay is. Crap, i'm honking about him again.
The waitress came over to take our order, she looked absolutely bored. I'd say around mid 30s, needs the money and really doesn't want to be here... She took our orders and went off to fetch them.
"So, James. Tell me about yourself" I smiled.
"What do you want to know?" He replied. Well at least he is talking now...
"Erm, What your last name?"
"Henry" what?! James Henry, it couldn't be?... Could it?
"Did you know a Jess horan?" I blurted out. His smile fell.
"Yes?" he said questioningly. Oh god it's him. I stood up just as our meals were coming out. Tears threatened to spill. "I'm sorry, i.. I have to.. Um.. Go" I said and ran out. He chased me.
"Em wait!" I stopped to look at him.
"What's wrong? How do you know jess?"
"Jess is, was my sister" I started to cry. I could t hold the tears in.
"Oh, I knew you looked similar to her. That's why u'be been a bit off tonight. You reminded me of her" his eyes started to fill up with tears. "We cant.." He indicated between us to explain.
"I know. I can't do that to her. You broke her heart" I couldn't look at him properly.
"I, I Didn't mean to" he said apologetically. "Where is she? I can make it up to her I promise! I still love her" he said. This made me cry even more...
"She's dead James." I said and walked away. He stood there shocked then ran after me again.
"How?"
"Cancer" I wiped my tears away hoping they would stop.
"The baby?"
"Twins. A boy and a girl. I'be raised them"
"Can I see them?"
"No. Ou left them once. I don't want you near them... Or me"
"Please. I never wanted to leave, I had to. I had no choice" he begged.
"Had no choice? You told her that you didn't want children and left."
"I lied. It was to make her think I didn't love her so she could move on." He sobbed.
"But, why? Why didn't you come back?"
"I couldn't face here I was scared. I didn't want to see her with someone else." Oh, he's not such a bad guy..
