We worked most of the afternoon getting my things out of the apartment so Blake could move in. I don't think they will be able to live there long though. The neighbors were watching us pretty closely as we moved stuff in and out. The girls stood around drooling over Blake who didn't notice a one of them. Bless his heart, he could only see Emma. I have to say it was really nice to see that kind of blind devotion. Cause believe me those girls were doing everything possible to get Blake's attention including stripping down to bikinis for him. He ignored all of it. I was impressed, that was until a certain press person showed up and Emma about lost it all.

"Knock knock! I know it's been ages since we've seen each other, but I hope you remember me!" The very blonde, very bubbly, very unwanted guest said as she stepped through the door.

"Courtney! We, ah we didn't expect to see you again." Lance said greeting her and looking at Blake as if this is a major issue. I see the silent conversation going on between the two guys as this blonde girl hugs my husband a bit longer than necessary. I'm not sure I like her now.

"I know, right? It's like fate has brought all of us back together again!" She grins and giggles like a silly school girl as she hugs Blake, who refuses to hug her back. I stifle a laugh when I see this. He looks at me with a glare. Oh he doesn't like her at all. I wonder why? Blake is usually really easy going and gets along with everyone, but this girl has seriously pissed him off. What did she do to him? "Oh Blake, I'm so excited to be working with you!"

"You're what!?" Blake didn't say that,  Emma did. I turned my head around just like the others did at the sound of her voice. "Excuse me, what the fuck are you doing in my house?"

Uh oh! It's not Blake she did something to, it was Emma. Blake is mad for her? Oh, I don't think this is going to be good. That little girl better get her scrawny ass out of here.

"Emma, I heard you were still hanging around Blake. Still hoping he'll pay attention to you when you make a fool out of yourself again? It must be embarrassing for you to screw up as much as you do in front of the guy you're in love with as much as you have over the years, only to have him turn to every girl but you." Courtney strutted straight over to Emma and got right into her face as she said this to her. Emma was about to punch her lights out. I saw her fists roll up tight and she was getting ready to pull back and let her fists fly. I know I'm the outsider here so I've got to step in.

"Well apparently you're out of the loop." I butted in. No way was she talking to Emma this way. I push Emma into Blake's waiting chest to separate the two. This bitch isn't going to get my girl into a brawl on camera and cause a scene. "See Blake and Emma are getting married soon. Looks like love won after all. Why are you here beside trying to be a bitch to my friend?"

Courtney stared at Blake holding Emma with Lance at his side and me in front of them. I'm not letting her get close again. She eyes each of us before she lands on me and tilts her head. She doesn't know me. I already know that one.

"Oh I'm Lance's wife. You can keep your claws out of him too. You came to the house lady if you thought you were going to land yourself a rich guy. There's no single guys available here anymore." I informed her. She kept her eyes on Emma as if there's a history there that isn't over. Emma wrapped her arms around Blake while he whispered softly to her and kissed her softly.

Courtney didn't turn away from Emma,  but continued to glare eye to eye at her. "I'm Blake's new PR rep with the Niners. I came to welcome him to the team. We'll be working closely together." Courtney smirks at Emma then. "Very closely. I plan on making him my top priority for the year."
