"Mom!" Aaron smiled, moving towards the older woman. Ann moved slightly away from him as he moved into giving her a hug, she was still angry beyond anything but he was her son.

The man sensed his mother's tenseness as he hugged her, stepping back from her, he moved to the younger woman and slightly pushed her forward towards the blonde.

"Mom, I'd like you to meet my girlfriend, Beth. Beth this is my mother Annalise Hotchner."

"Mrs. Hotchner, it's a pleasure to meet you. Aaron has told me so much." Beth smiled, shaking the mother of her boyfriend's hand.

Ann gave a fake smile and looked at Emily, she took a deep breathe, "Why don't you meet Sean, I'm sure he'll be happy to see you both."

Aaron made a face, but nodded "Where is he?"

Emily looked at her ex, "I'll get him." Turning around she made her way back into the house after not seeing him outside.

She walked in and nearly collided into JJ.

"Whoa, slow down Em" the blonde laughed as she balanced the fruit platter in her hand and moved around her friend.

"Sorry Jay, have you seen Sean?" She quickly asked her friend before she could go to far.

"He's in the kitchen!" JJ yelled as she walked to put the platter down on the food table.

Nodding her head, Emily walked into the kitchen and saw Sean grabbing a beer from the fridge.

"Hey Sean" Emily smiled, walking closer to the tall sandy haired man.

"Let me guess," Sean smiled, pulling Emily closer to him. "Aaron's here?"

Emily sighed "Yeah he is, and he wants you to meet the girlfriend."

Sean rolled his eyes and hugged Emily one last time. Pulling away from her he kissed her cheek and turned to walk outside.

Emily stayed in the house and watched as the two brothers did everything they could to not start fighting. She looked down at the granite counter and sighed.

"You really do look stunning Em" Aaron said from the kitchen doorway, coming back from using the restroom.

The mother of five jumped, not expecting her ex to be in the house at all.

"Oh god Aaron! You scared the hell out of me!" Emily said, her hand going to her chest.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to startle you." He said, walking closer to his first love.

"What do you want?" she asked backing up from the ever growing heat her ex was able to blow onto her, from just the sound of his voice.

"You"

She rolled her midnight eyes and moved past him into the living room.

"Not this again Aaron, we're never getting back together. Why can't you get that through your head?" She said storming up the stairs to put her jewelry down, before going into the pool.

Aaron quickly walked after her and into the room he hadn't stepped foot in for almost a year now.

"How many times do I have to tell you I'm sorry? That I messed up but want to make it up to you?!"

"Please, today or any other day for that matter isn't the place for this talk. You say you're sorry and that it was a mistake but you forget that I wasn't the one to break you like you broke me!"

Aaron gripped his hands into fists, "I love you! I'm in love with you and always will be, I just want you to understand that." He said, his voice slightly breaking as he cornered Emily.

The younger women looked down, her eyes filling with tears. "I...I..you can't just say that and think that it's going to fix everything."

Aaron ran his hands against her skin, every inch he touched becoming inflamed from the passion they missed.

"Say it Em, say you don't love me. Say that you've moved on and I'll go." He said, kissing her neck and pulling her body close.

Emily couldn't breath, she was on fire and wanted nothing more then to push him away from her.

But she was weak. She was melting and couldn't stop herself from wanting him again.

"I can't say that" She whispered into his hair, letting him close and lock the door before pushing her onto the bed.

His hands were everywhere, they pushed his heels off and undid the knot on her wrap.

Cupping her breast in his hand, Aaron looked into her eyes for permission.

"Oh god Aaron please...
