Tried, Try or Trying


"Bar keep, another beer for my friend here," I heard a voice say. I smiled knowing that voice anywhere, I turned around to see the one and only Emily Fields standing there.

"Emily, what are you doing here?"

"I just flew in, Mum's getting remarried," Emily said not sounding pleased at all.

"Yeah I heard she was getting married to another man. How are you handling it all?" I asked gesturing for Emily to take the sit next to me.

"One day at a time, I mean he makes her happy and that's all I can ask for right."

"Yeah, so tell me what have you been up to? I haven't seen you since, high school graduation and that was a whole decade ago."

"Well after I left, I stayed in California for two months before going to Yale for study. I got my qualification as a coach, which lead to a job on the Yale swim team."

"And your love-life?" I asked.

Emily smirked before saying "I've had a few on and off girlfriends, but nothing serious. Anyway enough about me, what have you been up to?"

"I injured my shoulder my first year of college, so I can no longer swim. Which was hard thing to understand and accept, especially when Olympics were just around the corner. I went into a terrible depression, I drunk, barely ate or slept and if it wasn't for a friend, I don't think I would've survived."

"Oh my Paige, are you okay?"

"I'm fine now, I've managed to accept that I'm still alive and that swimming didn't have to be my entire life."

"So, what do you do now?"

"Funny you ask that, I'm now coaching the sharks."

"That's amazing Paige."

"Yeah, they certainly aren't us but they're good."

"I don't think anyone could be us, Paige."

"Very true."

Emily then asked "And what about your love life?"

"I had a serious girlfriend but after I injured my shoulder, she left me, not being able to handle it. So I've just been putting all my energy into my work."

"That girl didn't deserve you Paige."

"Always ready to defend anyone, no matter what."

"I guess somethings never change."

"Em."

"Yes Paige?"

"What happened to us? One minute we were planning our flat and the next we were barely talking to each other."

"I guess we just grew a part."

"But how does that happen?"

"I don't know Paige, I don't know what happened to us."

I then sung quietly "In another life, I would be your girl. We keep all our promises, be us against the world."

Emily smiled before singing back "In another life, I would make you stay. So I don't have to say you were the one that got away, the one that got away." Before either of us knew what was happening we were kissing, roughly but at the same time passionately. When Emily pulled back from the kiss and pushed my shoulder back when I went to kiss her again, I looked at her confused as to what the problem was.

"I'm staying in the hotel across the street, would you like to accompany me to my room?" Emily asked with a shy smirk.

"I'd be honoured," I say standing up from the bar stool and taking Emily's hand in mine.


We couldn't have gotten to the room fast enough, making out in the private elevator. When we reached Emily's hotel door, it was a little struggle what with my back pressed against it. Once inside, I pushed Emily up against the door and trailed my kisses down her neck.

"Paige," Emily breath out.

"I know sweetie," I say knowing she was struggling to hold on. Pulling back from Emily, I hold my hand out for her and when she takes my hand, I lead her to the bedroom. Sitting Emily down on the bed, I place fingertips at the bottom of her shirt while looking deeply into her eyes and once I have permission I pull the shirt upwards. I take a deep breath at the sight of Emily Field shirtless, while her bra is still on; it's a beautiful sight.

Seeing the effect, she was having on me, Emily's fingertips went to the back of her bra and unclipped it. Pulling the bra away from her body, for the first time I was seeing Emily's breast and they were beautiful. Emily smiled up at me, slipping off her shoes before leaning back on the bed, I watch on as she undid the button on her pants. With a little awkwardness and sexiness, Emily managed to pull her pants down her incredibly long legs. All that was keeping Emily from being completely naked was her panties, which were blue.

"See something you like?" A cheeky Emily asked voice just above a whisper.

"Most definitely," I say beginning to loosen my tie.

"Let me help you," Emily said slipping off the bed and onto her knees. I watched with uneven breath as Emily undid my shoes lace and helped me step out of the carefully. Once my shoes, socks, tie and shirt were gone it left me standing in just my pants and bra. Emily stared up at me as she began to unbuckle my belt, when she pulled the zip down with her teeth I almost lost it. Emily pulled my pants down to my ankles, helping me step out of them. I now stood in my matching black bra and panties. Emily leant forward kissing the top of my vagina through my panties, before she pushed herself up onto her feet. We now stood face to face, in the bare minimum of clothing.

"Your beautiful," I whisper pushing a piece of fallen hair behind Emily's ear.

"Not half as beautiful as you are Paige."

"Are you sure you want to do this?"

"Yes I am Paige, I want nothing more than to make love with you."

"I just had to check before doing this," I say pushing Emily down on the bed and moving to lay on top of her.

"Nice move," Emily said while leaning up to kiss me. Bring my right hand up, I place it upon Emily's exposed breast and being palming it. Emily starts moaning into the kiss wanting to hear her moans, I kiss my way down to her jawline and begin nibbling at it. I felt one of Emily's hands grab roughly at my ass making me push down into her and her other hand come up my back, to start unclipping my bra.

Pulling back from Emily, I removed my bra and seeing Emily's face at the sight of my breast was beautiful. Emily slowly sat up, supporting my back with her hand. Emily came face-to-face with my breast, which was Emily plan. She began to kiss the tops of my right breast, giving me Goosebumps at the lightness of her touch. When Emily took my breast into her mouth, I couldn't help the moan that escaped my lips or the wetness that coated my panties.

"Em," I moaned while trying to breath. Reaching down in between our legs, I rub two finger against Emily's clit making her moan into my breast.

"Patience is a virtue," Emily whispered pulling my hand back.

"Not when your girlfriend is a tease," I say gaining enough strength to roll on top of Emily and beginning to peck at Emily's neck. After marking Emily's neck in serval different places, I moved down her body leave pecks as I went. When I reached Emily's core, I could smell Emily's wetness and see it; it was an enchanting sight and smell. Slowly pulling the underwear down, the smell grew stronger. Leaning down, I place a kiss on Emily's inner thigh. Emily reacted with fists clenching the blankets underneath us as she tried to hold on. Running a finger over Emily's opening, I received an attentive groan and a deep release of breath. Not wanting to tease Emily any longer or hold back anymore.

I dived into Emily's opening. After giving one small lick I felt Emily's hands on the back of my head pushing me in further. Continuing my licks, I forgot how good Emily's tasted and I wanted to enjoy it. However, I knew Emily wasn't going to hold on for very long. She's normally good at holding but tonight, Emily had needs and I was happy to fulfil them for her. When Emily's hand slipped down to my head to bare skin, I felt Emily's nails dig in and I couldn't help but moan. We aren't ones for pain during sex but the thought of Emily leaving marks on me from us having mind blowing sex, that was a thought to turn anyone on.

"Paige," Emily groaned and whispered out while trying to hold on.

Replacing my mouth with two fingers, I say "Release Emily, let go. Let go," I did my best to encourage Emily.

"I'm, I'm going to!" Emily shouts before releasing into my awaiting mouth. I take in all of Emily juices into my mouth and swallowing quickly. Slowly moving away from Emily's core, I moved back up Emily's body but laid next to her. I watched Emily as she came down from her high, she had beads of sweat on her forehead and a peaceful expression upon her face.

"That, that was good," Emily breath out, still catching her breath.

"One of our best I'd say."

"Maybe. However, you didn't come. So, we are not finished yet," Emily spoke while climbing onto me.

"Far from finished I'd say." I smile up at Emily as she slowly moves down my body, leaving small teasing pecks along the way.

As Emily lays in between my legs, I hear her whisper "I've never stopped loving you Paige. I can never stop loving you. Your love is my drug." Before I had the chance to reply Emily moved her lips to connect with my clit, all I could do in response was scream my head off in pleasure that only one Emily Fields could apply.


I watched from the bed as Emily button a white shirt up, she was preparing for her Mums wedding which was in three hours. I could tell she was stalling because normally she puts pants on before a shirt. What I didn't know was if she was stalling because she didn't want to go to her Mums wedding or because me, I could only hope it was because of me. Last night had been one of the greatest nights of my life, Emily and I made love serval times and just reconnect. Everything was always easier with Emily, she knew me more about me then anyone could possible know.

I speak a random thought "Do you know what this reminds me of?"

"What?" Emily asked throwing a coy smile over her shoulder at me.

"When you were getting ready for Jenna's birthday party. You had to wear a tie but you couldn't tie it."

"Neither could you," Emily interjected.

With a smile I continued "Because I was nervous."

"Why were you nervous?"

"I had never been that close to you before, I swore you could hear my heart racing."

"And there was me worrying you could feel my heart racing."

"Wait, you were nervous?"

"Terrified actually," Emily said turning around to face me. I smiled again when I saw a black tie tucked underneath Emily's collar, awaiting to be tied. Standing up slowly from the bed, I walk across in nothing but my underwear and singlet to Emily.

"Can I try again?" I asked looking at the tie.

"Sure," Emily whispered. With my focus completely on Emily's tie, I can feel her eyes on me; which makes me nervous all over again.

"Paige," I heard Emily say.

"Hey, look at that," I said amazed at getting the tie tied.

"Paige," Emily repeated.

"Yeah, Em?" I say looking up into her chocolate brown eyes.

Emily then asked sounding nervous "Would you like to go to my Mum's wedding with me, as my date?" I was suddenly speechless, I didn't think Emily was going to ask me out, ever again in my life-time.

When I didn't reply, Emily back-tracked "It's okay, you don't have to. I just thought after last night, today's going to be hard and you make everything so much easier for me."

"Emily, I'd love to go to your Mum's wedding as your date but."

"Here comes," Emily said.

"Let me finish," I request.

"Sorry," Emily said gesturing for me to continue.

"But, I need to know is this just me helping you out as a friend or will there be more dates?"

"I honestly don't know, I mean it's more than a friend favour."

"Okay so, do you want to start again?"

"Yes but your here and I'm in New Heaven, it's a lot of distance. How can we make it work, when we couldn't with no distance?"

With a sigh I say "Yes, it's a lot of distance but last night I felt that spark between us, my heart started beating again; all because you. I can't die wondering what could've happened between us. I don't know what's going to happen Emily but please just say you'll try, try for me."

"Paige, I would do anything for you. All you ever have to do is ask, it was always that simple."

"Okay, Emily Fields will you please give us a second or third chance?"

"Yes Paige, I will." I pulled Emily into my arms for a kiss, which was well received on Emily's end.

Emily broke the kiss and said "As much as I'd love to continue this, we have to be at the church in an hour."

"Right, sorry. Wait, what am I going to wear?" I asked concerned.

"Paige, I have more than one suit," I smile at Emily organising and not trusting her first pick. With a small peck to Emily lips, I walked over to her closest to start getting dressed.


Later that night at the reception, I was sitting at a table with Spencer, Aria and Hanna; Emily's closets friends. I was very happy to hear and see they were all still close, Emily needed good friends in her life and these were the three. Their dates in Caleb, Toby and Ezra were all at buffet table, getting more food and allowing the girls to talk. Emily's Mum and Robert were on the dancing floor, dancing together without a care in the world.

Looking at Emily, I saw she was watching her Mum and new step-dad dancing. There was sadness but happiness in her eyes, she was conflicted on what to feel. When I saw her hands playing with something, I realised she had gotten her Dad's dog tags made into a bracelets; which she was now running her fingers over. Reaching underneath the table, I took Emily's hand in mine and held it. When Emily connect eyes with mine, she was confused but I smiled which made her relax.

Hanna then asked "So, are you two dating again?"

"Hanna!" Spencer and Aria shouted. This made me chuckle, Hanna was still the same and it warmed my heart to know this.

Hanna said "Hey, you were wondering too. So, don't bite my head off just for asking."

Spencer replied "We agreed this wasn't the right place to ask.

Hanna counter "No, we agreed the church wasn't that right place to ask. We are now at the reception, perfect time to ask." All sets of eyes went to us to answer but it really wasn't my place to answer.

"Well?" Hanna asked impatient; which received her a kicked leg from Aria.

Emily replied with "We are trying," Emily ended with a shrug.

Emily turned to me and said "If I remember correctly this is your ultimate favourite song, would you like to dance?" Listening to the song, I realised it was Katy Perry's 'the one that got away.' It was a sad song for a wedding but I'm guessing Emily requested her Mum let her put this song in.

"Just try and stop me," I say accepting Emily's hand. Together we walked out onto the dancefloor and slowly swayed together.

"All I can do Paige is try, that's all I can promise."

"That's all I need Emily," I say before laying my head to arrest on Emily's shoulder as we continued to sway.

The End.


A/N: I cannot apologize more for how long it has taken for me to write another Paily story. You've had to wait almost a whole year, I am so sorry. Time passed so fast for me this year, I didn't have any story ideas; so I didn't post any one-shots for Paily because of that. I still don't really have any ideas but I am trying to come up with concepts. This one-shot actually took me months to write and that's because I'm not good at writing sex scenes, so I hope this one is okay. I really hoped you liked this one-shot. I hope to post more one-shot this months before the end of the year but I'm not sure, which is my honest truth. Thank-you for sticking with me, despite the lack of posting. You guys are truly amazing. ~KJ99
