Emily's Pov:

I was preparing myself lunch, with Miranda helping me to do it, since Edward doesn't want me to get into another trouble again. I switched on TV, changed channels and settled on watching "Big Bang Theory",my favourite from my college days.
I was devouring my food which mainly consisted of carbs when my phone vibrated. I swiped it on call, not seeing the caller ID while still chewing my lunch.

"Where is Edward,dear ?"

The voice was so slow and intimidating that I was about to scream when I took hold of my phone after wiping my hands and putting it over my ear. It was Mom. Edward's Mom. Oh hell!

"Good afternoon mom. How are you?
I heard you went India for some peaceful days. You were always the fan of yoga! So how was your journey there? Did you make some new friends? How is dad? Is his diabetes still over control?",I blabbered as usual.

"Honey, everything is fine. Yes my journey was great and I did make friends there and your dad is as fine as flower. Now back to my question,where is Edward?"

"Mom, he went just hours ago to his meeting saying he wouldn't be free until evening."

"Oh yes? I am sure my eyes were working properly when I saw him in the mall, shopping with Lara! "

Say what?

That toddler! I told him not to wander around with her in public places!

"Oh mom, Edward must be with his secretary now! I am sure you have misunderstood. We are in good terms and he broke up with Lara a long time ago-"

"But dear I am sure he was with her-"

"Never Mom! Infact today he is going to take me on date to celebrate the success of that international deal which he had been wanting for so long. Mom, he loves me all day and night that even I am not able to keep track of time. I am very much happy so dont doubt his love again!!"

That was not too much, right?

"Yes dear, if you say so but still-"

"No buts Mom. I don't have much time to get ready for this special occasion. So Bye and take care", I hanged up quickly only to dial again.

"What the hell Edward!! I told you not to go anywhere in public with Lara!!",I barked at him.

Seriously, I was working too hard to keep this fake marriage thing and here he was busy doing things his way!!

"Whoa! Wait what? Are you stalking me now? Like seriosuly-"

"Oh shut the fucking hell up and evacuate immediately with Lara from that freakish mall and go somewhere safe-"

"Wait, why-"

"Your Mom!! She saw you messing with Lara. Seriously Edward once you get home,I'll make sure you'll be eating food with your legs for the rest of your life!!",I yelled hanging up and throwing my cell on my sofa rather harshly.

My mind was in chaos! I need to get cold long shower right now. When I was preparing my clothes to wear, I heard doorbell rang. I ignored it and went to take my toiletries from cupboard.

"Oh dear, you don't think you're wearing these on your special night,right?",someone said quietly behind me and I screamed at the top of my lungs.

I turned around to see my mom standing in front of bedroom door, her hands gripping my shirt.

I looked at her confused. Was she going to come or did I really start to get early symptoms of Alzheimer of forgetting things easily?

"There is no way I am letting her wear these,Elena!",Edward's mom said, taking shirt from my mom and throwing it on dustbin. It fell beside it! Hah!

Wait, why they both are here again?

"Girls, this is Emily, my daughter-in-law and Elena's daughter. I'll leave her to your courtesy now!"

Just then I saw two girls,one with blue eyes and long straight hair and other with brown eyes and blonde hair, dragging me somewhere which felt like parlour!

Wait, I had a parlour in my house and I didn't even know about it!

I felt someone lifting my hairs, putting some machine over them,my mind still in waters to comprehend what the hell was actually happening when that brown haired girl poured hot wax over my legs. I screamed again closing my eyes.

I really hate waxing! I still remember the pain I had to go through when my mom pushed me into parlour to have wax before my wedding and I cursed maybe all generations of Jones family for my unbearable pain.

"Dont scream this loud mam. We still had a lot to do with you!"

Wait, what?

After going through hours long of waxing, shadowing and I don't know, maybe whatever,the blonde slid white pair of heels on my side to wear!

These heels are higher than my future!

I was still worried about Edward as I didn't get to speak a word about this whole date thing to him so when I saw two girls discussing about my outfit for night, I excused myself and rushed to washroom with a speed of light.

He wasnt picking up and I was getting impatience when he picked up finally to my relief.

"Edward! We have emergency!"

"What happened Emi?Are you hurt somewhere again-"

"Mam, we're ready with your outfit. Madam asked us not to let you go anywhere with your phone so we're afraid we might have to invade your privacy!".

Just then I heard washroom door open, my eyes widened in surprise and shock. My phone was slipped out of my hand so fast that I nearly lost my balance and was about to fall with my face on the floor.

When the fucking hell did they get a double key for my washroom door?

I came out grudgingly, glaring at the two girls who were way too much professional with their work. I nodded meekly to all their instructions,trying any outfit they made me to slip into.

After two hours of hardwork, I was all ready, sitting on the bed with the girls decided on the type of bag I would carry. I rolled my eyes at them.

They're making being girls too harder than it already was!

Hearing the doorbell rang, I quickly rushed to open the door when I was pulled back by those rude girls back to my place.

I glared at them,gripping the floral bedsheet in my fingers. I was afraid that our moms might discover the truth if Edward came home with Lara!

"You're not supposed to run in this dress mam. We're afraid you might fall and hurt yourself!"

Yeah, yeah. I understand!!

I was getting impatient, tapping my heels on the ground, my ears raised to hear any commotion that he might cause.

After a minute or two, I rushed inspite of their warning, my pace little slow with these pencil heels.

"Edward! How much I missed you. I was afraid I might die of waiting. Dear, you're late!",I yelled at the top of my lungs, my eyes signalling him to play along which I am sure he missed cause he was too busy scanning my body. His mouth hung low open, his eyes widening a little and suddenly I felt too conscious of my body,covering my chest with my purse. I ran towards him, wrapping my arms around his neck, hearing his breath get hitched.

I was wearing a blue mini dress, zipped from my back, my brown hairs curled at the bottom with slight tinge of sparkles. I don't know much about makeup except for they applied some rosy over my already flushed cheeks,eyeliner and mascara were mandatory,according to them, and they had gone with peach colored lipstick. I had matching bangle bracelet for my dress,which complimented my purse.

"Don't speak a word. Our moms are here to watch us",I whispered in Edward's ear.

"Whaat?"

"I don't know but when your mom called me about you being with Lara, I told her that you were going to take me on date tonight to celebrate your deal!",I blurted out,his grip tighetning on my waist.

"So what am I supposed to do now?"

"I don't know! You take the lead from here. I have had enough with your plans! And please let me kill you once we get this over with!"

"Don't worry. Here",he extended his arm in a gentlemanly way.

"Shall we?"

"Sure"

I smiled taking his arm,resting my head on his shoulder while walking over to his car. He draped his coat over my shoulders, his arms wrapped protectively around me once we were on car.

"Dont want anyone looking at you like hawk! But did I tell you that you look unbelivebaly beautiful and hot today? Man, I thought once for a moment that you were someone else!"

I blushed at his compliment. I didn't know what else had to come to confront our unwavering friendship but for once, I was happy because I had this beautiful moment of my evening to spend with Edward, my unrequited love while enjoying my First Date with him!
