Chapter 1: Awesome
Graham knows there's nothing particularly awesome about the word awesome. However, if asked to describe his relationship with Emma, it's one of the first words to come to mind. Every time he sees her, a chill runs through him. He truly believes they have it all: the banter, the love, the apprehension. He can only speak for himself, though, but he knows he loves her. He loves the way they joke and no offense is ever taken. He loves the way she threatens him but the teasing smile tells him he need not worry. It's almost like a high for him. No one has ever challenged him the way she does, made him really work to prove that he cares. Granted, they're not even a couple, but that doesn't stop the flirting. They're both awesome, he decides.
Every time Graham walks in the room, Emma thinks it's awesome. Though she'd never admit it, she loved having him around. She loved the flirting, and to be honest, he was an amazing piece of eye candy. These days, she thinks everything about them is awesome. She finds it adorable that he protects Henry and is glad he's in her son's life. She remembers the hot chocolate order she thought was his doing; in retrospect, she had wanted it to be. She thinks it's awesome that they can sit at their desks all day and never run out of things to talk about, even if he's never heard of the Red Sox. As she spends more and more time with him, she realizes she's in love with him. For the first time in her life, she thinks that being in love is awesome.
