Damon stood at LAX at the arrival gate waiting for her to step through the doors. He couldn't wait. He hadn't seen her in forever and he was so ready. He missed her and he spent every waking moment thinking of her. His friends and band even teased him about it. When he saw her smile he walked towards her rapidly. She dropped everything she was holding and held out her arms for him. She kissed him and suddenly everything felt right again. After standing there hugging for two minutes, Damon picked up her bags in one hand and held her hand in the other. They walked towards the door of the airport and out towards his car. Damon put her things in the trunk while she got in the passenger seat. Damon then got situated in the driver's seat.
"Now that we are alone" Emily pulled Damon in for another more intimate kiss. Other cars started honking them, and the two started laughing. Damon put on his blinker and merged out on to the road. Emily turned on the radio and stopped flipping through stations when she came across my chemical romance . Damon smiled, whenever he heard one of my chemical romance songs he thought of her and their pact in LA.
"I am so glad you are here Emily."
"Me too." Emily grabbed Damon's hand and looked out the window to the beautiful scene of LA.
"You Hungry Em?"
"Starving."
"Alright. Where do you want to go?"
"Ummm, oh remember that little place we went to during my first visit here? The French place"
"La Résistance"
"Yes! Yes! I have been craving French."
"Then French is what you will get."
After arriving at the restaurant, Damon went around and opened the door for Emily and they walked in together. They sat down at their table and the waiter handed them each a menu. After looking at it for a few minutes Emily set it down and sighed.
"Alright! I'm just going to tell you because i'm excited."
Damon set his menu down as well. 'What's going on."
"So I had a really long talk with Coach Belov yesterday." Emily reached her hand across the table to grab Damon hand. "And we decided to talk about what was in the future for me as a gymnast ." Damon nodded understandingly. "And we realized that I don't really know if there is much more to achieve. I won my gold medal and that was the primary goal along with going to the Olympics so I don't think any other prize is going to mean that much to me …So we decided that as of Monday, I am officially retired gymnast"
Damon's jaw dropped, of course he was excited but he didn't want to look too happy. "Wow Em. That's great! Right?" Damon said just to make sure she was happy about it.
"Yes! It's great news! Now I can come see you a lot more often."
Damon kissed her hand. "Now that is great news!"
After enjoying a peaceful lunch, the two of them got back in the car and drove to Damon's house.
