Emily soon learns that pain both physically and mentally are crippling and anxiety and people love to knock on her door.

I had always loved the friends to enemies to lovers trope in books and stories and movies. There's something so intimate and special about such a turning of events. One moment I love you. I love you like the Sun loves the Moon, like Summer loves Winter, I love you like God loves an atheist. The next, I want to watch blood ooze out of your scars. I want you to scream for every ounce of pain you caused me, for every last shred of trust that you obliterated. And the moment after that, I want to make love to you like the Autumn makes love to a pair of lips, like the Stars make love to the Sky, like Dreams make love to Wakefulness, like Time makes love to a person on deathbed.

Emilia & Jason. Jason & Emilia. That was five years ago. Now its just Emilia, and her little Junebug.
