I really had a bad day today but I am fine now!
I wrote this chapter days ago but it took me hours to update it!

Emily's POV:

Man, we were about to get a huge fight today. Who should I cheer?

"For what did you want to apologize? Because I assure you I have a long list of scars still deprived of Your aplogies" Mia said, walking so impatient,I thought for a moment that she would spill her feelings then and there.

"Mia, listen, I knew I was a jerk-",Jake started.

"Oh. So now Mr playboy recognizes it. That's good. Now I can die in peace",Mia said, rolling her eyes, but tears still visible in her eyes.

"Yes. I am a jerk and I will always be. I don't know why. You of all people know me best. You are the only one who has known me for more than ten years, so you should understand-",Jake was cut off.

"Why should I be the only one understanding?Dont You have brains not to do that same thing again? ",she asked, her eyes welled up with tears now.

Man,its getting dramatic.

"Mia, listen Jake wants to-",I was cut off.

Oh. Good. Now they are ignoring me.

"I know. I know everything bad about me and sometimes I kind feel-"

"So you feel also? ",Mia said, her eyes boring holes into Jake's.

"Oh for god's sake, let me complete one sentence properly. If you cut me off like that -",Jake yelled,clearly annoyed with interruption.

"Why should I give you the chance to speak now when-",she started.

"Okay..Dont give me the Chance But still listen to what -,he yelled,taking one step towards Mia.

"Why should I listen?Who am I to listen to your shit? Go and tell it to Victoria? ",Mia yelled,poking his chest.

Oops,she shouldn't have said that.

Jake looked at her. "If I didn't know any better, I would think you were jealous or something",he said,smirkikg at her face,taking one more step towards her.

"Oh, you really have delusions. I thought they were just rumours of you being maniac",Mia said,laughing with madness.

"I am not some-",

"Oh yes you are",Mia said, taking one dangerous step, their foreheads now practically touching.

"How dare of you to -"

"Oh, I can do much more mister",Mia said, her eyes now glistening with glint.

Oh dear Merlin, that was so hot, only if they weren't fighting.

"Listen my dear friends, if you could back up a little we can sort this out -" I started gently.

"Shut up",they shouted in unison. I raised my hands in defence. But then again.. What did I do wrong? I walked up to them, grabbing them by their shirts and banging their foreheads together.

"Oww"

I smirked to myself. "That's what you get for shouting at me",I said dragging Mia by her collar.

"Oh wait,my clip is stuck in Jake's hair",she said, trying it pry it off from his hair. I turned around to see them trying to help each other, Jake helping her pull clip out of her hair and Mia,gripping his shirt trying to reach up to his level.

Kawaii!!!! Can't they stay like this forever?

After a minute or two, we were in Mia's room,her anger still radiating. I tried to calm her down but she was fumed about the fact that I even dared To Help That Weed. Then someone's phone rang. It was Mia's. She mouthed "it's Edward" to me. I told her not to pick up cause I was going to home anyway.

Home. I sighed. Only If One fourth of that was ever true.

I drove my car speedily, it was past 8, much late for Edward's breakfast. He must have gone to his office by now.
I reached home,Miranda opened the door,her eyes filled with concern. I assured her of my safety.

As soon as I entered, someone engulfed me in a warm tight hug. I looked upwards to see Edward hugging me like his dear life depended on me. I looked into his eyes, searching for any anger But none.

"Gosh. Lily, I was so scared. I thought something bad happened to you. I am so sorry for not taking care of you. I m so sorry ",he hugged me tighter,his arms caressing my shoulders,sucking air out of my lungs,making my eyes go closed on their own accord. I hugged him back,placing my head on his shoulder,sniffing to stop tears until we eventually had to break apart due to unwanted audience.

Yes. Lara. Man I was just hugging him,not strangling him. She didn't forget to give me a glare before she looked at Edward, her eyes asking answer for unasked questions.

"Good morning Lara. Did you sleep well? I am sorry to make you two worried but I had this urgent call last night from Mia asking me to visit her as she fractured her arm while driving bicycle and so I went to nurse her. Now she is ok, you don't have to worry. Wait. I will make you two somemthing to eat ",I told them, opening kitchen racks to collect ingredients.

"We Are Fine. Miranda made us sandwitches",Lara said, placing wet kiss on Edward's lips. Gross. She is still horny after yesterday night!!!
Edward went upstairs to change as he already was late to his office. His driver was waiting in the lobby. I rushed upstairs to collect his bag and electronic accesories and gave it to his driver.

"Here. Let me",I said,placing his grey necktie around his neck and fastening it quickly when he was buttoning up his shirt. No. I am not a pervert. I was looking up.

"Okay. All done. Wait.. " I ruffled his hair to the side,took some gel and rubbed it Into a contour shape. He looked stunning. I want to laminate him and put him on my wall. I shook my head for my stupidity.

"Thanks Emi. I am off now. And don't you dare to go around without actually calling me or texting me otherwise I swear I will never talk to you again",Edward said, his lips turning into pout.

Holy shit!. I want to kiss him so badly.

No You can't,voice in my head said.In a haste, I put my hands over his mouth and pulled him out until we were standing outside the house,his VEYRON parked next to us. I retracted my hand,literally dumping him in his car.

"What Lily? ",I heard his muffled sound, before I closed the car door shutring it in his face.

I ran to my room,closing the door quickly, and leaning my head on the doorframe,my eyes welled up with unshed tears. I finally released the breath I was holding. God, I really would have done it if I didn't hide his mouth. I mentally killed myself thousand times before I was once again In the kitchen,preparing myself lunch.

It was already 6 pm when I woke up from my nap. Lara was already gone,I read her text. I washed my face, picked some bubblegum, popped it in my mouth and started to practise my martial moves. There was a knock at the door. Who would it be?
I opened the door. It was Edward's parents. I greeted them.

"How is my dear? Did you sleep well?",Me Jones said, hugging me.

"Ow.. See that blush David, it only comes when you have lots of sleepless night....",Mrs Jones trailed off, mischievous glint in her eyes..

Light blush tainted my cheeks,my ears red as tomato.

How many times I had to tell them he desnt love me. I am his fake wife for god's sake!!. Oh wait. I didn't tell them even once. If only I could share it all....

I prepared some snacks for them. We chatted for a while and I excused myself to prepare dinner for them. I hurried to buy some groceries and beef. Inspite of my speed, it took me almost one hour to prepare dinner. I placed it on the table, inverting the plates and forks, wine on the table and some juice for Miranda as she coudnt drink wine.

I heard doorbell rang. As soon as I opened it,my eyes widened. Edward was stuck like glue with Lara, who was kissing him open mouthed. I quickly looked behind to check if anyone had seen them,looking back, I grabbed Edward by the collar and pulled him inside. Lara faltered due to sudden imbalance and I put finger on my lips,signalling her to remain silent.

"What-",Edward started, his mouth covered with my hands. I felt moisture on my hands. He spits when he talks!!

"Shut Up! Your parents are here! Make one noise and I will pluck out your lungs",I whispered in his ears. He glared at me and I turned around, mouthing "bye" to Lara, before I shut the door at her face.

That felt good!

"Edward Baby, why're you late? You shouldn't leave your wife unattended when you are newly wedded. You are lucky you got your best friend as your wife. She is much understanding. Your mother here would have killed me a long time ago if I were you ",his father said,winking at me.

Were they always this dirty-minded? Why didn't I notice it before?

My thoughts were cut short when I felt arm snaked around my waist. I looked up to see Edward smiling face. Oh I knew that face, I. Had to. Play along.

I sighed.

Things were never going to get better. I should stop being optimistic.

So did you like it? Write me your reviews.
Have a nice day!!
