Blessed By Reedus | Prequel to Claimed By Reedus

|Chapter Seven|

(7:30pm, Dinner with Norman)

"Ellie have you seen my phone?" I shout up to her but she isn't listening because she is listening to music through her headphones, so she doesn't hear me which makes me want to go up there and scream at her but as I go to head up there the door rings. I take a deep breathe, as I head to the door and open it, there stood Norman in front of me, his baby blue eyes meet mine as he looks up from the ground. It was silent between us two for a few minutes when I said "Hi, did you want to come in?" I smile slightly afterwards. I'm starting to regret wearing this jumpsuit now but I don't bother changing, I see my phone on the sofa so I grab my phone and then find something to let my annoying older sister know upstairs, that I was leaving and will back soon.

'Ellie, I'm out for dinner with Norman. I'll be back later! Take care..Gemma x'

(9:00pm, at the restaurant)

"Look, Gemma. I don't know how to put this but I'm sorry for everything I have put you through and I wanted to say that I think I have feelings for you" Norman began to explain but when I heard the ending, my eyes widened. "Norman, I forgive you. You're not to blame, I am because I overreacted about everything because I wished that you were mine" after saying this, I realized that the ending slipped out so I looked down and blushed slightly and wait for his response. "I guess that makes two of us then, I want to go to bar after this, well only if it's okay with you" Norman says as I lift my gaze onto his eyes, I smile slightly before wiping my mouth with the napkin on the table.

"You're acting like, we are normal again like nothing ever happened you know" I state to him before getting up from my chair and tucking it back in. "We can go back to mine, my sister is there but I don't think she will mind" I say smiling, Norman stands up from his chair and grabs his jacket. "You haven't introduced me to your sister yet" he says as he opens the restaurant door, I giggle and look up at him. "Yeah well you don't want to" I say which makes him chuckle slightly, "We can go back to mine, Lily isn't in for the next week so you can come around all you want" A smirk appears on his face, which causes me to smirk as well because I know how he meant it. "Well yours it is then" I say with a smile and climb in to his car.

(11:00pm, at Norman's)

"Home sweet home" I say as we enter his house but he doesn't say anything apart from chuckle a little behind me. "So, Reedus? How's things been since we last spoke?" I ask him causally but he doesn't reply which makes me confused on what's going with him, I don't remember Norman acting this strange..What has Lily done to him? "To be honest, quite boring without you. I'm not saying that because we just confessed our feelings, I actual mean it. It must of been boring with out me huh?" He finally replies whilst smirking again, I roll my eyes at him which makes both of us laugh. "It has to be quite honest with you Norman. I'm just glad that we sorted things out" I state clearly before turning my attention to my phone;

Subject: Change of plans

Hi Gemma,

Sorry for the late email! I wanted to inform you before the filming starts, there has been a change of plans for your character and how she fits in to the group and creates that bond with Daryl. Firstly, Your character, Gemma isn't going to know Daryl straight away, so this allows them to create the bond that we are looking for. Secondly, we have changed the plan slightly on how Gemma is going to cross paths with them so I was wondering if you are able to meet in a few weeks to discuss about as we are filming soon for Season 3.

Let me know ASAP

Robert Kirkman

I was too busy reading his email that I didn't even notice Norman was staring at me from the door frame. "Sorry, um..it was a email from Robert. I had to read it, it had information about season 3" I say turning red as I lift my gaze to his baby blue eyes, "It's fine, work is more important" the way that he said was emotionless, I don't remember becoming friends with this "side" of Norman. I'm left stunned by the next action as our lips smash in to each others and the kiss turns more passionate than anything, I wrap my arms around his neck as he picks me up, allowing me to wrap my legs around his waist. What a way to release you feelings for someone! But wait, Gemma what have you done?! He is going to get married soon and you kissed a married man (technically).

(In the Morning, 7:30am)

I woke up, laying on Norman's chest in HIS bed. We weren't wearing anything, well I was wearing his shirt but Norman well..you get it. I frantically looked around for my bag and phone in the room, I finally find my bag and begin to fish through there until I come across my phone. 10%..shit! I managed to check my notifications; 3 texts, 5 miss calls from Ellie and 2 voicemails, I sigh as I get up and head in to the guest bedroom. He still kept my clothes in here? I guess he was missing me that much! I grab fresh clothes out my closet and then head to the bathroom and freshen up before leaving his place and making out that this never happened.

---------------------------------------------------

"He kissed you?!" Ellie squeals as I tell her everything that happened over the course of the night/evening. "Yeah he did, it was a surprise to me because I didn't see it coming for a start -" I began to explain but Ellie cuts me off. "You have to get him to see how much of a bitch, Lily is and then he is always yours" She smirks after saying this, maybe I'm not the only one who sees her as being a bitch towards everyone. "I can see where you are coming from but I don't know how we are going to achieve it" I say taking a bit out of my apple. "Gemma! Open your eyes! Lily was the wrong woman for him and you was meant to be in that place but you let her in!" Ellie protests and the faces she pulls whilst say that makes me laugh. "Ellie, Lily is out of town for this week and it will give us a chance to have an advantage point" I say with smirk.

"Okay, we'll plan tonight and then we can get the action started" Ellie squeals again which makes me roll my eyes and leave the room. "I have to go to my kickboxing class" I shout out to her as I head up stairs to grab my gym gear and bag. "Gemma, I'm coming with you. I need to meet this Jason Statham, he is my favourite actor" Ellie shouts up to me. I sigh, Jason is going to regret meeting my sister and if anyone is to know that then it's me because she is my older sister.
