Edward's POV —
"What in the name of everything miserable are you talking about? Did you two fight? Again—""We broke up. It felt like dragging a soulless animal and the weight was just too much to carry anymore than was necessary."Emily's eyes melted into moisture as she crossed the much needed two steps between them and grabbed his shoulders. Tipping on her toes, she engulfed him fully in the whirl of her femininity and emotions.Edward couldn't breathe, he didn't even dare move a muscle lest the moment should break and disappear into the bubble of longing and misery. Again.He was abhorrently tired of dreaming of her each night — whimpering, sighing, moaning and clinging to him just like she was doing now — and equally tired of having to play the role of a gentleman each time she was around him in reality.His hands found her back, shifting her weight,| Epigraph |His hands are saying that he wants to hold her. His feet are saying that he wants to chase after her...He's probably forgotten that I'm here, beside him. *throws cream buns to all my readers*>>Here you go! | When We Met |"Love is like a wind. You can never see it, but you can always feel it."Birds were chirping, the skies were all clear except for kites. A soft breeze splattered over trees which reverberated with pleasure. It was the spring season, perfect for every girl and boy, man and woman. Two children were playing on the playground. Or more like fighting. "You can never win against me, " the little boy said, patting girl's forehead. The girl tried to reach him, but he was slightly taller than her. How can he be taller? He is just six, the girl thought. She pouted in annoyance at the rude behaviour of the boy who she didn't even know! "I will tell my mom that today I met a g
~Based on the same theme of unrequited love, but with the different sort of love-triangle. Written with feelings and passion, so hold your seats pals, it might give you Tachycardia if you ever had serious one-sided love for anyone lol.Emily's POV:I was happy. Very happy, in fact. Who wouldn't be? I mean I just had my life all planned out. I had graduated, got a job offer, and my best friend just called me saying he needs me. The same best friend who I had a crush on for maybe about fifteen years. It was more of a crush at first, but then it turned from a mere degree of "like" to "inevitable love" before I could even gather my thoughts up. And I, like any girl in love should behave, sealed it deep in my heart. I thought if I could be able to match his type, he would reciprocate it, but I was afraid he might not want me back. Because he was in love with someone who was not me. Tragic, isn't it? The problems didn't start there, I guess because he certainly had the right to love som
Emily's POV:We decided to visit Edward's home. I rang the bell and Mr Jones opened the door, a warm smile on his face."Hello, Mr Jones!""Oh, my cute girl, it's been a long time since we hung out, " he said patting my head.I smiled widely at him."I graduated and I also got a job offer from the National Tropics hospital. I will join after a month." I said, earning praise from him."Oh, my two children have already grown up. I can't want anything else than seeing you succeed as much as this world can offer!"Mr Jones always thought of me as the second child of his, a daughter which he never had. He took care of me, even going as far as scolding his own son. I was blessed in some aspect.When my father died, he actually financially supported our family for some time until my mom found a
DAY OF MARRIAGEEmily's POV:I was nervous. I should be. That's what normal brides feel. I was going to take a long step. A step which would change my life forever. My hands were sweating and I couldn't even walk on the ground because of this gown.Yes, I was wearing a gown.A wedding gown. My dream gown.I have always wanted to marry Edward, wanted him to propose me first and then I would say yes. All of this happened but I didn't know it could happen in such circumstances as well.When I first realised my feelings for Edward, I was very cool, unlike other girls who freak out. Because I know I would get over th
Emily's POV:I was tired. My legs were numb; they were probably swollen and my posture was not anymore erect.The ceremony had ended hours ago. I just wanted to lay down and rest but the first big thing was to remove this enormous gown from me, which was clinging like a second skin to me. I waved at Edward. He was on a call.Edward's parents actually gifted us a sweet apartment. It was huge for the two of us, but I knew it was actually for the three of us, including Lara as she would be a frequent member of our house.Our house. I sighed. In other cases, I would have jumped with joy by that thought.I smiled at Edward when he helped me get in the car. The ride was silen
Emily's POV:A shrill noise entered my ears and I groaned at the alarm clock.Okay, I am up!I shifted uncomfortably in my couch.Ring ring!I kicked the alarm clock.Crash!I am finally up!I woke up the next morning, my back aching like a thunderbolt. I practically had to bend double to make it up like the original. I stretched my arms, yawning and scratching my legs.That's not a girly thing. You are not in your
Emily's Pov:I cleaned our room for hours, though being a new house it was already clean. I had this habit of cleaning stuff when I was depressed.Yes, I am depressed.That's because my husband is having an affair. Just kidding. He is my fake husband if that term even exists. And he married me to have an affair!Can it get anymore dramatic?Oh yes. I am his best friend who has been in love with him for fifteen years when I should be using this time to get over him.I patted the sofa, dusted the shelves and put my books in a row. I am a bibliophile and a strong one at that. Sherlock Holmes and Augustus Dupi
Emily's POV:I felt horrible and disgusting. I closed my ears, trying to stuff a pillow but to no vain. Man, Edward really had some balls to have sex with Lara when I was in the next room. The walls were much of a negative soundproof than I could ever comprehend.I closed my eyes, trying to sleep but Lara was moaning literally loud. I had to bite my lips to stop myself from shouting at her. I knew Edward was experienced in this field but did she really need to make it this obvious.Damn her!I sighed. It was always there, that hopelessness. It came and went but never left me.I had always been a happy-go-lucky girl, some called me goody two shoes, some tomboy, some nerd
