Emily Warner, the crazy and happy go lucky side-chick in all of the stories. She is happy that all of her friends met the man of their dreams but she hasn’t. She has never met a man who even remotely loved her. As a kid, she always hoped for a crazy life story like beauty and the beast or toy story or finding nemo. But she worked at a nine to five job, at the age of twenty nine, she was single, while all of her friends were either getting married or pregnant. And there she was sitting in front of the television, eating chips out of her hair. At this point in her life, she was heartbroken, depressed and done pretending to be happy when she was clearly not. She just wanted to escape, run away and have a crazy adventure. Little did she know that she would regret making that wish.

I miss him so much.” I say normally but the sadness in my tone is audible.“Hello sweetheart.” I feel a hand snake around my waist and a head rests on the nape of my neck, pulling me into a very familiar hug. My breathing stops as my nose inhales the masculine scent I was acquainted with.I scream a little out of joy as I turn around and jump into his arms, wrapping my legs around him as I hear people laughing around me. I hear Lucas chuckle as his hand caresses my hair, hugging me tighter.I break the hug a little to look at his handsome face that I missed for so long. I lay a soft kiss on his lips as he smiles at me before setting me down and greeting the rest of his family.I feel like my heart was going to explode with the amount of happiness that I was experiencing right now. I look around to see Jake and Danika smiling at me, knowingly
Emily Warner“I don’t understand why we are having this celebration.” I say as I pout, wanting to go home and watch a few movies and then fall asleep on my couch.“I thought you would be excited for Christmas!” Jake says as he takes a seat next to me while munching on a few candy canes.“What’s there to be excited? Everyone is here with their boyfriends, families and babies. I am here alone.” I whine as he pats my back in a feeble attempt to console me. Jake and I have grown really close, because apart from Mary, he is the only one I can talk to about the real situation going on with Lucas.Also, because Lucas can’t really risk putting my life in danger so he communicates updates through Jake, who in turn lets me know if he safe or not.“By the way, I was thinking of doing something.” I tell Jake who nods his head. “Like a hobby?”“It can be one if I am successful.” I say and he stops mid-way of his eating and gives me a look. “What c
Emily Warner“So who were all of these other kids you grew up with? Are you still in touch with them?” I ask him excitedly.“Yeah, all of them are like my siblings. We meet for Christmas, thanksgiving and all the big holidays.”“Oh my god. That’s awesome.” I say, surprised at how happy his childhood memories were. When you hear the word orphan, it somehow has such a negative connotation.“Yeah, all of them come to meet Mrs. Carter with their kids and spouses, I always go alone. It’s a running joke that I am going to be a bitter old bachelor.” He says, making me laugh a little at the thought.“So do they know what you do? Are you in touch with them on a regular basis.” I ask him, as I feel my head almost exploding with the number questions in my head.“They know I work in the army, but I manage internal operation. And to answer you second question, they are all busy with their own jobs and family, but if we call each other we talk
Emily Warner“So did you have a heart to heart chat with you boyfriend?” I tease him when I enter the kitchen and see him making some coffee.I could really use a cup of hot coffee. Last night, Danika and I drank a lot as I told her a lot of things about Lucas.“Ha-ha hilarious. But yes, we did talk through lot of things.” He says as he hands me a cup of coffee. I smile and feel happiness when I realize he made a cup for me too.“So did you guys come to a mutual understanding?” I ask as my lips curved into a little smile.“Yeah we both agreed that he is an asshole and I am a jerk.” He says, making me raise my eyebrows. It’s funny when two men argue over childish things.“That’s seems like a grown up thing to do. I am proud of you too.” I say as he flashes me one of his heart melting smiles before sipping on his coffee.Ugh this man is too gorgeous.Imagine waking up to this Adonis every day.“So you met
Emily WarnerI leave the room, completely dressed, after my long phone call with Mary where she explained what Socrates, Odyssey and Olympus is. And also, of course a few thoughts on Lucas.As I exited my room, trying to pull my black dress down as it kept riding up my thick thighs, annoying the hell out of me. This is why I don’t like wearing bodycon dresses, they are so uncomfortable but it does look pretty when I suck my tummy in so…“Hey- why are you wearing your shoes?” I ask him as I look at him standing near the door with keys in his hands.“I am taking you there with me. I’ll leave, once you meet Danika.” He says and just heads out of the door, leaving no room for argument.“I can manage myself okay?!” I say as I follow him, closing the door behind me. “No you can’t.”“Why? Because I am a woman and I am wearing revealing clothes. Let me tell you something Danika and I are fully capable of...”“No sweetheart. Danika is
Emily WarnerI head back home after sitting in the coffee shop and reading a book for three hours, finally when I realized it was six, I decided to head home. According to Lucas, I was on my lunch date with Jacob, obviously I was lying to get a reaction out of him.So I decided to torture him more by making it seem like I spent almost 4-5 hours on this date with Jacob, which would be an indication that things are going well.I am enjoying being in power when it comes to Lucas, I wish I took Mary’s advice sooner. I could have avoided a lot of confusion. After our little session last night, I could see that he wasn’t happy with the fact that I was going out with Jacob again, his face was sullen but if I have to be honest, he deserves it.If he wants me, he should ask me.Thankfully my mom and dad decided to leave and didn’t wait for me as I got enjoy my time with my mom. I was nervous about my father insulting me or mocking me because most
Emily Warner“Also if you don’t mind, since we have ended things between us on such good note, you might leave soon and last night, my mother interrupted us…” I say shyly looking down at the floor, drawing circles with my fingers.“Yes?” He asks, as I see him anticipating my next words. “You know-“ I say too embarrassed to say the whole thing.“Emily, sweetheart, you have to speak up. I don’t want to make assumptions.” He groans as he stares at my completely red face now.This is so embarrassing, but I have to take charge.I get up from my seat and walk towards him, I see him sitting up straighter, not knowing what my next move could possibly be. I put legs on either of his side and I sit on his lap, making his hands go around my waist to stop me from falling.“I will miss this, us… you.” I say as I look into his deep black eyes, I squirm a little when I feel his grip on my waist tightening.I move my hips around a little on
Emily WarnerI came home after two hour chat with Mary. I felt like I finally met someone who understands me and doesn’t look at me with pity in her eyes, she knows exactly what I am talking about and where I am coming from.She made me jot down points on a notepad because I would for sure forget them, I was surprised at how predictable I am. I kept telling her that Lucas would never get jealous and he would see through my tactics. But she laughed at me and said that I don’t know how men work.I still think I should warn Lucas once before I start the plan that Mary laid out for me so carefully. I hate how connected I am to him, I don’t want to make him feel bad.But Mary was very stern with me and said that I have to hold my ground if I want to give Lucas a taste of his own medicine. She said he can’t go around playing with me.But still… he is such a sweet guy…“Lucas!” I call him out as I drop my keys and phone on the coffee ta
Emily Warner“Emily, you are here finally. Elizabeth has been looking all- Woah you are crying?” Nathan says as he looks around not knowing what to do, “You know what, let me call Elizabeth.”“Actually Nathan I’ll deal with her. I know why she is crying.” My eyebrows raise as I see Jake smiling at me as he leads me inside, “Her cat- umm- her cat-““Is sad, like depressed and there are apparently no cat therapist so I called the-“ I complete Jake’s sentence but Nathan just looked at me with raised eyebrows, not buying my awesome story.“How about this? I’ll come back to you in half an hour when you have a better story prepared?” He asked me in a serious tone.“Yes boss, I can do that.” I say as I salute him for some reason and he laughs before walking away.I get nervous around Nathan, he is my best friend’s husband but he is my boss first.“Emily, I know you are really emotional right now but you can’t tell Elizabethan a
