"Oh man. You look awful." Craig said in a joking voice. "Thanks. Nice to
see you too." "Man what were you thinking! I thought you were smarter than
that!" "I'm sorry, I was upset." Sean looked over into Emma's sorry eyes.
"What were you so upset about?" Craig asked, looking to see what Sean was
staring at. Emma's eyes pleaded at Sean not to tell Craig anything.
"Nothing really. I don't know, I wasn't having a good day." Sean said,
reading Emma. "Oh whatever man. Just happy that you're alive!" "Yeah, me
too." Sean said, tearing his gaze away from Emma. "Craig." Joey said,
popping his head inside the door. "We need to go, partner." "Okay. Bye
Sean." He walked over to him and shook his hand. "Bye man. Thanks for
coming." Craig did a little wave to Emma. "Bye Craig." Emma said quietly,
staring at the floor. She felt so awkward being alone with Sean now. Things
were not the same and they never would be again.
"EM..." Sean started but Emma interrupted him. "Sean, I made a mistake." "What are you talking about?" "I shouldn't have assumed your reaction. I should have told you first thing and known that you would take it ok. And I should have known that this would bring us closer...I'm sorry..." Sean was staring into his lap. "Yeah, you probably should have. I thought you knew me EM. It's kind of insulting to hear that you think I am that kind of a person." "I know but...I was scared. I didn't want to lose you." "EM, you dumped me. And you say you didn't want to lose me? That makes no sense." Sean said, trying to stay calm. "Sean I know! I wasn't thinking straight. But now I realize that it was a mistake." "What are you saying?" Sean asked, looking up at her. "I'm saying that I'm sorry and that I never wanted to do what I did and I want us back together. That is if you'll forgive me." "EM, I really want us to be back together. You say how bad I was without you. I don't ever want to be like that again." Emma smiled her first real smile in days. She walked over to his right side and pulled him into an intimate hug. "I love you." She whispered in his ear.
Sean pulled back to look at her. He could tell that she meant it. He was sure by the look on her face. "I love you, too." He said, somewhat still in awe. He pulled her back down and gave Emma her first real kiss. Not just a spin-the-bottle kiss, but a real one, by the one you love. Emma thought to herself that this couldn't be more perfect. For the first time she was really, truly happy.
