Belle of the Boulevard- Dashboard Confessional
Hey everyone sorry for the long update, been busy with school. I will try and update this as much as possible. Please review.
"He touches your leg and thinks he's getting close, for now you let him just this once, and just for now, and just like that its over." This was the quote that inspired this short one shot.
Emma sat in her office alone thinking about everything in her life, from Ken to Will, and everything in between. She really wanted to get over Will and learn to love Ken. Ken was a nice enough man, he was sweet to her, and loved her even with all of her crazy. But he was not Will, and he would never be Will, and she had to learn to deal with that. She decided she would try with Ken, even if it was going to disgust her, she would try after all he was soon to be her husband,
Ken and Emma had gone on a date that night to a local diner that Ken always wanted them to go too. They made idle chatter like they usually did, and returned back to Emma's condo after to have some coffee. Ken sat on the couch and watched TV while Emma prepared the coffee for the two of them. She took a cup for herself, and grabbed another cup she designated Ken's cup so she knew not to drink out of it, and that it was the only one Ken could use. She added some Bailey's into her mug, she wasn't a drinker, but she didn't even believe what she was about to do, but she knew she was not going to be fully sober when she did it.
She sat down next to Ken, and handed him his cup. They sat there in silence for a bit watching TV until Ken rested a hand on Emma's knee. Her eyes widened and she stared straight ahead, think about if she could really do this or not. When she didn't move Ken kept his hand there, and slowly moved it up her leg.
"I should have put something stronger in my drink I can't do this." Emma thought to herself.
Ken was becoming dangerously close, to her inner thigh when she shook away.
"Ken, I'm sorry, I can't do this." Emma told him.
"M&M look we've gotten closer then we ever got before, maybe with time you can feel more comfortable with me." Ken said trying to calm him down.
"Yeah, maybe." She responded.
Ken got up and placed a hand on her back, which made her flinch. Ken left, as Emma continued to sit on the couch thinking about what she had almost let Ken do.
She had prepared herself earlier to go all they way with Ken, after all that's what husbands and wives were supposed to do. But she couldn't do it, she wasn't ready, maybe one day but not now.
Emma looked back on this memory and laughed, because that day she didn't know if she would ever be able to have some type of physical contact with someone she truly loved.
"Hey what are you thinking about?" Will asked her, when he noticed she was staring out their bedroom window.
"Oh nothing." Emma replied as she crawled on top of him on their bed and stared down at him lovingly.
"Then why are you staring at me like that." He said laughing.
"I just love you." She placed a kiss on his lips.
He brushed her bangs out of her face and smiled up at her, and he loved that he was the only person she would ever let kiss, or touch her.
