'So this is it? You're just going to leave me?' Emily cried out... Naomi sighed and spoke very softly 'I can't do this anymore all we do is fight. I am going to California to stay with Carly for a few days.' She picked up her bags and walked out of the bedroom. And for what Emily thought as the rest of her life. At first she was stubborn and didn't text or call, but that only lasted a day. She finally messaged her : ' I don't know what to say, except for I Love you always have always will. E.'
It had been almost a week, and Naomi still didn't know how to respond to the text. She knew that she needed to say something but she couldn't say I love you too and I want to figure this out. Because she knew this time it was different.
for the first time in a week she got dressed and went down to the kitchen to find her cousin carly making breakfast. 'Hey I never thought you were gonna come down and see me.' She said with a smile She could tell by the look on Naomi's face that she wasn't in a talking mood. Naomi sighed and sat down… 'so what are your plans for today she asked?' I don't have work this weekend at all so I was hoping u would want to come down to the beach with me. Carly smiled and punched Naomi playfully in the arm…. You have to get out of the house.' Naomi bit her lip, 'ok fine but first I need to call Emily and say something I just don't know what yet.'
Emily stepped out of the shower. Her phone had just stopped ringing. She almost fell down when she saw who the missed call was from. "Shit! FUCK… how could I miss her call?' she asked herself. She immedtaley redialed the number but it went straight to voicemail. So she decided to see if Naomi had left her a message. She listened as she heard the monotone voice say' you have one new message.' She pushed play and sat down on the toilet. 'Emily I got your message and didn't know how to respond. I just wanted you to know I am safe. I am not sure what I want and I just need some time to figure it out. Please give me the space I need. I do love you; I am just not sure if I am still in love with you.' That was the end of the message Emily didn't know what to do, but cry.
It had been almost two weeks and still no word from Naomi. Oddly enough, after a few days of not speaking to each other she seemed to be fine. Well at least it appeared that way on the outside. But inside there was a war waging! Her heart was being torn to shreds, and she didn't know what to do to make it stop. Emily worked at a local gay bar and had been working double shifts to keep her mind off of everything. One of the other bartenders Jamie had a thing for her and was always trying to get into her pants. This was one of the main reasons Naomi and Emily fought. But it was the only work she could find, so she refused to stop working there.
There shift was over and Emily was walking to her car when she noticed Jamie in the parking lot trying to get her car to start. Normally she wouldn't have helped but there was no one else out and it was very late. 'Hey, is your battery dead?' Emily asked. Causing Jamie to jump and hit her head on the hood. 'Shit! Um.. Yeah I think that might be it.' Jamie said. Emily ran to her car and pulled over next to Jamie's and hooked up the set of old rusty cables to her car first and just as she was about to connect the last cable she noticed it was missing. 'SHIT, my cables are cut. Do you have any?' Emily asked? 'Nope, never thought I would need them. Always had men stopping to help me.' She said with a cocky smile. She had a right to be cocky. She was beautiful, without a doubt. Green eyes that were amazing, long blonde hair and tattoos covering one of her arms entirely. She was slightly taller than Emily and more physically fit. Emily knew this because she was not blind. She thought to herself nothing wrong with looking right?
'So it looks like I am giving you a ride home then.' Emily said as she unhooked the cables. 'Man that would be great! But I live about forty five minutes away. Are you sure you want to? Jamie asked 'hmmm well I am not sure if I can stay awake for that drive. Would you mind sleeping on our couch till the mourning and then I drive you back here to meet a tow truck?' Emily said as she yawned and stretched her arms. 'Ok cool just let me grab a few things from trunk.' Jamie smiled and ran to the back of her car.
Emily couldn't help but notice the other girl changing right in front of her! Just as she had thought her body's was amazing underneath her clothes too! 'Stop it Emily you have Naomi!' she scolded herself. 'um are you talking to yourself?' Jamie said standing next to her. 'No I am just really tired let's go.'
