Chapter 9

Previously
Someone knocks at the door and Stephen goes to answer the door but what he sees is... his ex-wife Cassandra!!! "What... What are you doing here!?!?"

"Who is it?" Emily says very curiously.

"Was that a girl in there!!!"

"Was that a girl out there!? STEPHEN WHO IS AT THE DOOR!!!????!!!"

"Well... so... umm... Cassandra could you come back some other time?"

"No why would I do that you are going to explain this to both of us!!" Cassandra let's herself in shoving Stephen out of the way.

"Nice to me you. I'm Emily!" She says with a fake smile wondering what was going on and who this girl was that just let herself in.

"Yeah... nice to meet you to I'm Cassandra." She also says with a fake smile.

"So Stephen!!" They both say at the same time. Emily and Cassandra look at each other confused.

"Okay so Emily this is my ex-wife Cassandra. Cassandra this is my girl..." he stops him self "my friend Emily."

"Frie..." Emily was questioning if he remembered what happened last night but then realized it was better to say that then anything else in this situation.

"Okay so if your his friend then why are you over here?" Cassandra says to Emily.

"Well exactly the reason you just said I'm his friend. And why are you so offended that he has a girl over when you two are over anyway?"

"Well because we only got divorced a year ago!!" She starts to cry.

"Hey I'm sorry you guys separated..." Emily hugs Cassandra. "but it's been a year that's long enough to finally move on and I know that it's hard but soon you'll meet someone that you just know is right when you look into there eyes that you are right for each other." Emily says while staring into Stephens eyes and him staring back wishing he could just kiss her right then and there. But at the same time he was hoping that she understood why he didn't call her his girlfriend.

Cassandra stoped crying and said "your right!" And she left the house wiping her tears. She slams the the door behind her and Emily and Stephen start talking.

"Em" "Steve" they both say at the same time.

"You first." Emily says

"Okay... So I'm sorry that I didn't..."

"I already know what your going to say and I get it, it wasn't the right time and we don't even know what this is yet."

"Well I was going to apologize but I thought we both knew from the start we were perfect for each other, we were meant to be, we had a connection.... Emily I love you! ❤️"

Emily looks up at Stephen not saying anything. "You don't have to talk" Stephen says as he leans in to kiss her. There lips touch Emily pulls back with a big smile and says "I love you to!" They kiss again. They haven't seen each other in a while but they knew from when they first saw each other that they had a connection from when there eyes met.

"Wait Steve why did you and Cassandra split up."

"Ohh... Umm... that doesn't really matter it's in the past."

"I mean sure but not really it was only a year ago and I kind of wanted to know because she seemed very upset."

"We can just talk about it later."

She backs farther away from him."No I want to know what did you do to not even want to talk about it!!" Emily starts to turn around and walk away towards the living room.

"No Emily wait!!!" Stephen yells. "I can explain it, it's just that... well I just didn't love her anymore I knew that something, someone was just missing from my life. I knew that I needed someone different. And it all started that night in high school. There's a reason I tolled you that what we did was a mistake and it was because... well... I was already with Cassandra."

"Wait wait wait, weren't you with Beth around the time we hooked up."

"No me and Beth broke up a bit before me and Cassandra got together. And wait if you knew that I was with someone even though you thought a different person why did you sleep with me."

"I mean I was drunk and I did try to ask you if you were sure you wanted that to happen but all I remember is trying to get my words out and your kisses ran down my arm distracting me and then when I tried to finish what I was saying you interrupted me with a kiss, so if you think about it, it was kind of your fault that even happened."

"MY FAULT HOW WAS IT..." Stephen stoped him self not wanting to start a fight. "Never mind I get I guess it was partially my fault mostly." He didn't want to admit that but he also didn't want to ruin what they had just stated because he didn't even know what to call them yet.

"I'm sorry it wasn't all your fault it was mine to because I didn't push you away but I was in love with you or at least I think it was a hard time for me back then but I know what I feel about you know... umm.. let's stop talking about the past and start living in the present. Like let's eat this beautiful breakfast that we were about to eat when we were interrupted."

"Emily"

"Yea what's up?" Emily says as she's choking down food trying to forget about what she just said.

"I didn't know what was going on back then ether I was a stupid jock and I'm surprised you even came to that party. You should have seen how worried I was when you were a little late I thought that you weren't going to show, but I think that's when I knew that we were right for each other the minute that you walked into the house. And you are right all that matters is now so let's keep the past behind us and start this new life together or at least see if we work out."

Emily swallows the food that she just shoved in her mouth. "You don't think that we will work out? But we just said I love you to each other why would you say something like this after saying something like that?"

"No that's not what I meant I just didn't want to freak you about by talking about if we lived with each other and things that would happen in the future because I thought that you would panic. I'm sorry."

"Oh well ether way I would have panicked as you saw I'm sorry how about we sit down and watch something on tv do you think we could do that?"

"Yes of course I would love that." That put a smile on there faces and they walk into the living room and turned on the tv but all Emily could think about is how Stephen cheated on someone and she was hoping that he had changed and didn't do that anymore because she didn't want to get her heart broken. She knows that things are moving fast I mean they already said I love you with them only really hanging out properly last night. She was just scared she didn't want her first love to be her first heart break. It's not like she hasn't been with someone and then been dumped or she dumped them it was just that she was never in love with them like she was in love with Stephen.
