Naomi looked around her room, remembering all the memories she'd had here. Memories with a beautiful redhead that permenantly occupied her mind.
A tear slid down her cheek and lightly splashed her t-shirt. Although Effy would be fine with herself and Emily's relationship now, Naomi wasn't.
There was no doubt she would miss Emily, but the look on her face when she saw Effy, was nothing compared to when she looked into the blondes eyes. Emily needed Effy. Losing the brunette would cause more pain to Emily than losing her would. Naomi could see that now, after the talk she had just had with Effy, the way Effy could live without Emily, just knowing she was happy was enough for her. Naomi doubted she would ever be able to do that, for anyone, she wasn't good enough for Emily.
Naomi slumped onto her bed, she laid down and stared at her ceiling. She was drained, emotionally and physically from the day.
She was tired, tired of fighting for something that had been hers for so long, and had now disappeared. She cursed herself for not realising sooner. Realising that the reason she smiled every morning was because she would be seeing Emily's smile soon, and that when she closer her eyes, an image of Emily was permanently tattooed in her mind, and on Effys. She should have noticed the way they looked at each other, stolen glances across classrooms, and heated dancing in clubs, they were always glued together. God knows what happened on all them nights when Emily would cancel on Naomi to sleep around her best mates house.
Trips down memory lane had always been painful for Naomi, ever since she was little and watched her dad kiss her goodbye, and walk out of the door.
There was only one place she wanted to be right now, the place where she last saw her father, she loved to go there when things got too much for her, she liked to think a part of him was there, helping her through her problems. She needed to think, now more than ever before.
It was raining, hard. Emily's hair was drenched, and flapping around her face. Her feet were sore from the constant slaps on the pavement. But that didn't matter, nothing mattered anymore, except them sweet, beautiful azure eyes.
She rounded a corner, leading to a small park she new Naomi loved, and that's where she saw her.
"Naomi"
The tall blonde whirled around at the sound of that voice. That voice, it never failed to make her heart beat flutter.
"You shouldn't be here Emily, you have exams tomorrow and your fac-" Naomi's rambling was cut off by an exasperated Emily.
"I want to be wherever you are, Naomi. Don't you understand?"
Naomi stood staring at Emily in awe, she didn't want to believe it.
"But Effy-"
"Effy is my friend Naomi." The drenched redhead walked over to an equally wet Naomi and reached out for her hand, taking it and rubbing her thumb around Naomi's palm.
"She always will be. I love her, but not in the same way I love you. I want to spend my life with you Nai, you make me happy more than anyone else ever has."
Naomi dropped Emilys hand, and turned her back to Emily. Confused, Emily put her arms around Naomi's waist, and nuzzled her head into her back, taking in her intoxicating smell. Naomi relaxed, let out a deep sigh then sniffled, and a tear splashed onto the ground.
"I want to start again Ems, do it right this time."
Emily squeezed Naomi, letting her know that she will always be there.
"That sounds perfect."
The two girls stood together, their bodys entwined, for a while. Eventually night started to fall and Emily shivered. Noticing that Emily was cold Naomi broke away from the hug and took off her loose green jumper, and handed it to the redhead. Emily took it gratefully, and slipped it over her head. Emily looked at Naomi's t-shirt and sniggered.
"What is it with you and pigs?"
Naomi blushed and bit her lip, making Emilys heart pound even harder.
"I think it's cute."
Emily stepped towards the blushing girl and slide her arms around the blondes neck, pulling her in so close there lips were almost touching, Naomi's breath hitched, Emily smirked, knowing that she could still do that to her.
"It would look cuter off you."
Emily leaned in to close the gap between their lips, but Naomi pulled away. Emily gave the other girl a confused look, making her smile.
"So, you free on Tuesday? Say, 8 o clock?"
Emily laughed, annoyed at how persistant the girl could be. "Campbell, are you asking me on a date?"
Naomi let out a small laugh, knowing that she was annoying her girlfriend. But she wanted to stick by her word, to start again without rushing into things, she wanted to know that it would work, in the long run. "You know me too well Ems." Naomi winked at Emily, this time she let the other girl close the gap between them.
Just as their lips were about to touch, the moment was ruined by a beep coming from Emilys pocket.
"Shit, its Katie⦠I can't believe I'd forgotten about her, sorry, I should go."
Emily turned to leave, but was stopped by a hand on her wrist. Naomi has swung her back round, so their eyes were connected.
"Emily, even if things go badly between you and Katie tonight, I'll be here for you. Whats mine is yours." Emilys eyes sparkled, and her heart felt like it was going to leap right out of her chest, it was real this time.
"Keep your vagina on Nai, we aren't married, we haven't even been on our first date yet." She replied, whilst pulling Naomi in, and putting her arms back around her girlfriends neck.
"Well, you never know" Naomi whispered with a wink. Emily smiled and stood on her tip toes to kiss the top of Naomi's nose.
"See you later."
Naomi watched Emily go, and shouted "Good luck."
She had a feeling the redhead would need luck now more than ever.
