Emma's POV

Me: Hey can you come over for lunch?

Kendall: sure

In the 20 minutes it takes her to get to my house I made Kendall and I lunch.

"Hey." Kendall says when I open the door.

"Hi." I say.

We then walk to the kitchen and eat in relative silence.

"So why did you really invite me over for lunch?" Kendall asks.

"I want to talk about everything."

"Okay."

"Would you like me to start or do you want to start?" I ask.

"You can." Kendall says.

"First off I'm sorry."

"For what?"

"I shouldn't have put our business out in the open like that in the villa."

"It's okay Emma. I probably would've done it to."

"Can I ask why you did it?"

"It started as a PR stunt and then it went from there. I honestly can't tell you why I did it." Kendall says and looks down. "It just happened."

There's then a prolonged period of silence.

"I dumped Ben." Kendall says.

"Oh...why?" I say.

"He didn't treat me right and he just wanted me for fame."

"Oh....well I'm sorry you had to go through that...you don't deserve that."

"Then what do I deserve Emma?" Kendall says getting a bit flustered.

"Kendall you deserve the world." I say and her eyes snap to mine.

"W-w-what?"

"Kendall you are an amazing girl who, one day, will find that special someone who you will spend the rest of your life with...that person just isn't me."

"Did you ever think we'd get married?" Kendall asks.

"Truthfully...no I didn't."

"Me either."

"I guess we're better off as friends." I say.

"Y-y-you still want to be friends?" Kendall stutters out.

"Yes Kendall I do."

"You know you and Ash look a lot a like." Ali says while looking at pictures of Ash and I around my house.

"We looked like twins when she had her long blonde hair." I say.

Ash and the National team are in LA for training camp before the World Cup. They have a free day today so they are coming over to hangout and relax. I decided to fly Ali out to surprise Ash since they haven't seen each other in a while...and because I missed Ali too.

"Which hairstyle do you like better? Her long hair or her short hair?" I ask.

"I like both of them...There's advantages to both." Ali says.

"Like?" I say and Ali smirks.

"Well..."

"Don't answer that. I don't need to know about my cousins sex life."

"Smart." Ali says as the doorbell rings.

"Do you want to hide?" I ask.

"Nah."
