Amara's POV
My blood ran cold after reading the note. What could he possibly mean by that he'll see me soon? It scared me to think of any possible ideas. I am pulled out of my own world by Emerson gently shaking my shoulder and calling my name.
"Amara? Are you okay? What's the matter?"
I shake my head to clear it and look at him. "I'm okay, I guess. But why don't you two come inside. Rem and I were just watching a movie. You can join us." I say with a smile. The two of them follow me and take a seat on the other couch. Both of them quietly groan when they see what movie we are watching.
"Hey, don't judge. Harry Potter is a great movie. And honestly, what else did you expect us to be watching?" Rem said while laughing. I rejoin him on the couch and he pulls me into his arms while pressing play on the movie. I shed a tear when Cedric is sadly killed and Remington pulls me closer.
When the movie is finally over, I detangled myself from Remington's embrace. "So I'm pretty bored now that the movie is over. How about we all go do something fun?" I say to the three boys.
"What were you thinking of doing, Amara?" Sebastian asked.
"Uh, I didn't get that far." I laugh.
"I don't know if the three if you would find it fun, but there is a new art exhibit I've been wanting to check out for awhile." Emerson says quietly. "That actually sounds fun Emerson. I think we should all go together." I smile while the other two nod. So we all get up and decide to take one car with Sebastian driving. After a short drive, we all arrived at the exhibit. We enter and start to look at the pieces, most of them paintings or sculptures.
Remington was walking next to me when he whirls towards me and says in a tour guide voice, "And if you look over here, you will see the most beautiful piece of art in the building, if not the world, Amara!" I blush and tell him to stop. He kisses my cheek and we continue on.
I was looking at a painting when I noticed something written on the bottom corner. It was very faded so I looked for an exhibit employee. "Excuse me, but could you tell me a little bit more about this painting right here?" I ask them.
"Sure miss, no problem." We walk over to the painting and he takes a lot at it. "Oh this one is one of my favorites. Not much is known about it. It's a beautiful and detailed picture of multiple buildings with domes and arches and columns. It was created some time in the mid to late 16th century. The artist is unknown but we believe the writing on the bottom corner is the artist's initials, 'EB'." I thank him and he walks away. Could the artist be Emerson? It would make sense since he was alive when the painting was created.
I walk around the exhibit, looking for Emerson. I find him admiring a painting a short ways down from me. "Hey Emerson, I was wondering if I could show you a painting. If you don't mind that is." He looks over at me and simply smiles. I take that as a yes. We walk back towards the painting. He hasn't looked at the looked at the painting yet so I take the opportunity to ask him, "So I was wondering if this painting was done by you? It has your initials and even looks like your style."
Emerson looks at me finally and he has a sparkle I. His eyes and a smile on his lips. "Yes. I did make this. A long time ago. I thought it was lost forever. Thank you Amara for showing me this. I truly appreciate it." He turns back to the painting with the smile still on his face. I give Emerson some space and go find Rem. I find him sitting on a bench, looking at his phone.
"Don't want to look at the art anymore?" I say to him while nudging his leg.
"Babe, I am the art." Rem replies with a grin.
"Oh-ho are you now?"
"Nah, it's actually you who is the work of art." I burst out laughing while simultaneously blushing. "Oh my god Rem, I think that is one of the cheesiest things you have ever said to me." He just laughs and pulls me closer to him once I sit him. We sit in peaceful silence and wait for Emerson to come back.
A short time later, he finds the two of us and we leave, before realizing that we almost left without Sebastian. Emerson texts him and tells us that he was actually waiting in the car for us. After joining Seb in the car, we head back to my house.
"Hey Amara..."
"Yeah Em?" I look over at him.
"Thank you for showing me my painting. It meant a lot to me." He tells me with a small smile.
"Oh you're welcome Emerson! I'm glad I was able to make you happy." We arrive back at my house and head inside. I head into the kitchen and start preparing some food. I'm about to ask the boys if they wanted any when I remember that they don't eat food for nourishment, at least human food.
"A, we are going to head out now so you can eat in peace." Rem tells me as he walks into the kitchen. I stop what I am doing so I can give him a kiss.
"Oh okay. That's fine with me. I was almost going to ask you guys if wanted any before I remembered, and I don't think I have any of, you know."
"How sweet of you. But don't worry about us, we'll probably head to the Underground. Are you doing anything tomorrow?" He asks me.
"Yeah unfortunately. I have work tomorrow. A long shift too but I'm hoping it'll be uneventful."
"Aw, okay. Well anyways, I'll still call or text you tomorrow. I love you my beloved."
"I love you too." We kiss and then him and his brothers leave, leaving me alone in my house.
