Ugh! I got so mad when Emily gave Lesley that look on Monday's episode (Loch Ness). WHY DO THE GARLAND'S KEEP COMING BACK!


Emily took a deep breath, and opened the door.

She looked up and saw him, George, with his hair off to the side and a sweet smile on his face. He stood there, looking down at her.

- Hello there Emily, he said in his usual cheerful way

- Hi George, she greeted, forcing a smile.

Ever since she had spotted that man on the beach a couple days ago, Emily felt as though she was betraying George every time she spoke to him. It wasn't fair for her to be courting him if she spent hours after midnight, thinking of a man she didn't even know the name of. She would probably never even see him again. George was a fine man, and she loved him. He deserved all of her attention.

- Where will you be taking me tonight, George? She asked

- Well Emily, I was thinking we could maybe go for a stroll on Jarvis street, perhaps go for a drink. I know I good place on Jarvis street. They sell these amazing weird drinks with juice or beer... I don't really know what it is, but I've heard -

- Yes George, I'm sure it will be splendid, she interrupted. He always seemed to go on and on, and lately that was bothering her quite a lot.

He simply nodded in response and held out his arm. She took it, and they began walking.

He brought up the subject of that drink again, and he started telling her all about it. She just listened, sometimes commented on a few things. Usually, his knowledge would fascinate her, but not tonight. He just didn't seem to capture her attention. Instead, she had her mind on another man.

They began walking down Jarvis street. George was now mentioning something about mexican fish. Up ahead, she spotted Darcy Garland's house.

She always hated that house. It reminded her of the terrible suffering her friend had gone through, and detective Murdoch. Darcy Garland wasn't a bad man, but he had destroyed Julia's life. If Julia hadn't have met him, she could have married William a long time before. The couple could have avoided many problems.

In a way, she was glad the man was gone from her friend's life.

But recently, Julia had told her that his brother was in Toronto. He was actually living in Darcy's house. It seemed Darcy had not left Julia forever. He sent a brother to haunt her.

Emily hadn't met his brother yet, a certain Lesley, but already she didn't like the man. Her friend deserved a break from the whole Garland scandal. With seeing his brother almost everyday, she was bringing back the terrible memories.

As they walked by the Garland house, she noticed Julia was there. She had her back turned to her, and a man standing beside her. She guessed that man must be Lesley Garland. Then Julia turned around in Emily's direction and started walking away from the house, followed by Garland.

That was when she saw him. It was dark, so she couldn't see all of the detail on his face. but she knew it was him. His hair was brushed toward the back, his eyes were reflecting the dim moonlight. She could see his strong muscular figure through his shirt, and his perfect light colored skin. His silhouette was dark, almost like shadow.

Emily stopped dead in her tracks.

Her heart started beating faster and faster. She couldn't quite understand what she was feeling. Only that she had never felt in before.

- Is everything alright? George asked her

- Yes George, she said after regaining herself. I just think I just spotted Doctor Ogden.

George moved his gaze to where her eyes were starting at.

- Oh yes Emily! That is Doctor Ogden, George replied.

- Doctor Ogden! He called out.

Julia turned at the sound of her name. She lifted her eye brows and noticed Emily and George standing at the front of the house.

- George! Emily! Julia responded.

Lesley looked around for a few seconds, and then saw the couple. As he came closer to great them, he realized he had already met one of them; the man. He had been with detective Murdoch when he had first introduced himself to him. He seemed to forget his name.

Then he realized the young women was staring intensively at him.

He was used to it. Ladies always admired him. But there was something familiar about her, as if he had already met her.

Suddenly, he realized where he had seen her before. At the beach, a couple days earlier. Her companion had thrown a piece of a hat in the air and he had caught it. When he threw it back, he had noticed the young lady's eyes fixed on him. She smiled after, and left.

She seemed like a very mysterious women. He was delighted to see her again.

- Lesley Garland, he said.

He moved his hand to hers and brought it to his lips. He gently laid a soft kiss on her fingers and brought is back down.

- Emily Grace, she somehow managed to squeak.

He was even more amazing to her up close.

Then George took out his hand to greet him.

- George Crabtree

- Yes, I do believe we have met, Lesley said, nodding.

They shook hands.

The whole time, Emily had not laid her eyes off of him. She was completely mesmerized by his beauty. She could barely breath.

Lesley had realized the effect he was having on the young lady. It made him smile. He loved it when ladies went crazy for him. It made him feel good about himself. There had never been one that had made him go wild, but this Emily seemed very interesting. Perhaps he would ask her out for dinner.

And her partner, George, was nothing he had to worry about. Then young man was completely oblivious to his sweetheart's reaction. There were no signs of jealousy in his eyes.

He was clueless.

Julia, however, was not fooled. She immediately noticed Emily's facial expressions to seeing Lesley. Mostly when he kissed her hand. Emily was going crazy. In just a few seconds, she had fallen in love.

But Julia had also noticed Lesley's emotions. He showed no signs of love, or caring. Instead, he seemed bored. Clearly, he didn't feel anything for Emily.

If Emily had fallen in love with a man who didn't love her, all she would get would be pain and suffering.

Emily was her friend. She couldn't let Lesley do that to her.

George was also her friend. And she knew that this would all be the hardest on him.
