strangers in love

chapter 34

AMELIAS POV
I was getting the kids ready to leave Owen's. His mom and sister were so sweet and honestly I was nervous for nothing. Owen walked over to me and smiled. He put his hand on my waist and kissed me softly.
"Thank you for dinner," I smiled.
"Anytime," he said.
"I'm going to go say goodbye to your mom and sister," I said and pecked his lips before walking into the living room.
"Hi guys it was so lovely meeting you I have to head out with the kids now," I said. His mom got up and hugged me.
"And it was a pleasure meeting you too," she smiled which made me happy.
"Bye Amelia it was nice meeting you too," Megan smiled. I hugged her too and then walked back out to Owen and my kids. My phone rang and it was Spencer again. I know Owen saw the name and pulled me in for a quick kiss.
"Hey I love you," He said quietly.
"I love you too," I said quietly. He smiled and I pecked his lips once more before walking out to my car with the kids.
"Hey I'll see you tomorrow?" I asked Owen.
"Yeah," he said, "goodnight."
"Goodnight," I smiled and got in my car.

I was making coffee in the kitchen when Emma came down from her room.
"Hey mom," she said. I turned and knew by her voice something was wrong.
"Hey what's wrong?" I said and stopped what I was doing.
"Someone's on the phone for you," She said and gave me her phone and I knew it was Spencer but I was confused as to why she was so upset. I took the phone from her hand.
"Hello?" I said.
"Amelia," Spencer said, "Amelia I need to tell you something."
"Okay," I said.
"I love you," Spencer said, "like I really do and being in here has made me miss you so fucking much and Amelia I'm so sorry for all this but I fucking love you, I think we can work this out with the kids and everything if we really tried."
"Spencer," I said, "I don't love you."
"Yes you do," he said.
"The second you told me that you had sex with that girl was the last moment I felt any sort of love for you," I said, "It's gone now."
"Amelia," he said, "you know that's not true."
"Spencer I have a boyfriend," I said.
"Oh," he said, "you do?"
"Yeah," I said.
"Who?" He asked.
"Like you'd know you're in jail," I said.
"Well I hope you're happy," he said.
"I have to go," I said.
"Okay," he said, "and I won't ever stop loving you Okay?"
"Bye Spencer," I said and hung up.
"Hey uh, told me he was gonna try to win you over, and I tried to tell him it wouldn't work," Emma said quietly, "and then he yelled at me." I wrapped my arms around her and kissed her head.
"I'm sorry this all happened, none of this was supposed to ever happen," I said.
"Yeah but if it didn't, you wouldn't have met Owen," she said.
"You're right," I said.
"His mom seemed to like you," she said.
"You think so?" I asked.
"Yeah," Emma said, "I could tell." I smiled.
"Would you ever get remarried?" Emma asked.
"Okay woah Owen and I just started dating," I chuckled.
"Yeah But would you?" She asked.
"I would," I said, "to the right person I would."
