Emily Pov

My head kept replaying the words "I love you" over and over again. Maya was still kneeling in front of me as I sat in shock. I couldn't move or speak, I wasn't one hundred percent sure I was still breathing. This was too much. I took a deep breath and the next thing I knew Maya had attached her lips to mine. She tasted like grapes. It had been so long since I had felt her lip but it felt like not a day had gone by since the last time. She began to stand up and my lips followed her. She walked me back until my back was against the wall, her lips not leaving mine for even a second. She put her hands round my waist pulling her body close to mine. As she pulled her soft lips away from mine I could feel her smile. I tried to catch my breath. I didn't want to open my eyes because I knew the moment I did I would be filled with regret and guilt. I am married. Alison is my wife and I love her. I have Emilia how could I even kiss someone else. Alison would come back. The worst part was a part of me liked the way it felt, the way Maya felt. I could feel tears building up as I felt the guilt and regret before opening my eyes, I knew if I opened them the tears would escape.

"Emily look at me. Open your eyes." Maya's hand was on my arm. "Emily?"

I opened my eyes slowly and tears spilled down my face. I looked straight into Maya's eyes and could see the love I had seen in her eyes so long ago. Maya looked back at me in shock.

"I didn't mean to upset you. I had to tell you how I felt." She took my hand.

"Upset me? I'm married Maya!" I snapped.

I pulled my hand away from hers and sat down at first desk I could make it to.

"Emily please, I love you. Forgive me please." Maya knelt down in front of me once again. Maya lifted her face to mine and kissed me gently. When she pulled away I wanted more but I knew it was wrong.

"Maya, Alison is my wife we have Emilia. You can't just say you love me and kiss me like nothing has happened. That's not how things work."

"Alison isn't here anymore. She left you with her baby when things got too hard anf this isn't the first time she has left. Emily I will never leave you again."

"Emilia is my daughter too and Alison will come back."

"You don't know that she could be half way across the country by now. You can't wait for her forever. I'm here Emily I'm here and I'm telling you that I love you. Alison is gone."

I could feel my heart breaking like it did when I read the note from Alison telling me she left. I loved Alison more than anything but was Maya right, I can't wait forever for Alison to come back to me. My head was spinning I didn't know what I wanted. I was so confused I wanted Maya to kiss me again even though I knew I shouldn't.
