Emma worked as a assistant for a newscaster. The pay was minimum wage and she had decent hours so she never argued. She walked up to the security guard desk and brought her pass out of her purse. "Hello Deidre," Emma greeted the guard.
"Ms. Nelson," The guard smiled.
Emma smiled back and headed to her office. She opened the door and sat down at her computer.
"Ms. Nelson, Diane wants to see you at once!" The messenger said.
"Thanks Trey," Emma smiled and headed to the newscaster's office. "Hey Diane!" Emma greeted.
"Emma! Just the gal I wanted to see!" Diane said humbly.
Emma smiled and walked in sitting in a chair in front of her.
"Emma how's your story coming along?" Diane asked worriedly.
"Fine. Just need to finish the end and I'm done" she said happily.
"Great! Get that done and sent to the editor ASAP!" Diane ordered.
Emma nodded and got up... practically running to her office. She finished typing her review on the endangered species project in Toronto and printed it. She looked up and saw Deidre standing in the doorway.
"Ms. Nelson there is someone here for you," he said.
" Great! Send him in. I'll be right back," Emma ordered. She quickly stapled her pages and jumped up. Running to the editor. " Mr. Larson! It's all done!" Emma huffed. I was out of shape!
The editor nodded and quickly took the paper. He barely said anything at all. And Emma heard that he was going into college as well. She nodded and ran back to her office to greet the person. She ran in and shut the door.
"Hi Emma," A voice sounded behind her.
"Sean?!" Emma screamed, as she whirled around.
"In the flesh!" He smirked.
"Get out now!" Emma shook with anger.
"Emma can't you see I want you back? I love you! I think about every minute of my day! Don't marry Chris!" Sean said pulling Emma to her and kissing her. Emma withdrew quickly.
"Sean I don't feel the same way about you as you do about me!" yelled Emma. " You broke my heart and I won't let you do that again," Emma whispered falling to the ground.
"I didn't mean to hurt you that bad," Sean said quietly as he kneeled down.
"Well you did... and now you're a little late! Because I'm marrying Chris!" Emma cried.
"Have you ever wondered if he was unfaithful to you?" Sean asked as he wrapped his arms around Emma.
"We loved each other... I figured he wouldn't go with another girl," Emma cried in Sean's arms.
Sean held Emma tighter and calmed her saying that there was no need to cry.
"I'm confused Sean... I don't know what to do!" Emma's muffled sobs echoed around the small office.
"I'm sorry if I keep upsetting you... But I can't help it... I love you!" Sean confessed his true feelings and thoughts then with Emma sobbing in his arms.
"I'm sorry I keep running away from you... I thought you and Ellie were meant to be together!" Emma referred their past relationship.
"No... she knew we were meant to be together and we broke up..." Sean said.
Emma looked up into his eyes and saw sincerity and concern for her. She started having definite second thoughts about being Mrs. Chris Sharpe and liking Sean more and more every minute. "Sean... what took you so long?" giggled Emma.
"I knew you would come around!" Sean smiled and gave Emma a passionate kiss that sent fireworks through them.
"Well... you should get going and thanks for being there Sean," Emma said as she got up and kissed Sean good-bye.
"Call me and will go out..." Sean said.
"Of course!" Emma smiled and walked Sean to his truck.
