Hello, everybody! So I´m finally having the time to sit and continue with this fanfic! It´s being kinda hard to find something to say about Wemma, ´cause I really wanna introduce new stuff to their relationship without being boring. Hope you´re enjoying it so far and I appreciate your reviews and the PM you sent me =)
Sorry if this chapter goes a little fast…. ;)
Thanks again to Taylor (purple-wemma) for being my beta reader!

Thanks to Will´s patient and Emma´s will, things had been working great so far. Every passing day, no, every passing minute he could see how much she wanted their relation to be in constant motion. Their intimacy would reach a new level as things started to be implicit between them: there was no need for permission, inhibitions or embarrassment. He would stay at her place at least three times a week and she would go to his other three; just one day they would sleep separated and he discovered how much he missed her warm body resting next to his during the nights.
One morning, while Emma was taking a bath, her phone rang.
"Em…!" Will called her from outside the bathroom, "your cell is ringing… should I take the call?"
"Yes, who is it?"
"Unknown… it doesn´t say… Hello?" he answered politely, "Yes, this is Emma´s cell, but she can´t take the call right now, who is this?" She heard his voice from the shower, "Oh, hello Mrs. Pillsbury! I´m Will"
Emma almost tripped from the bathtub. Mrs. Pillsbury? Was she actually calling? She could hear Will stepping away and going to the living room. She could even picture him, sitting in the couch talking to her mother. Oh Gosh. She hurried up, got out of the shower and wrapped herself in a cotton robe.
"Emma just got out of the shower; do you wanna talk to her?" Will asked her mother respectfully.
Before handing her the cell he asked her in a whisper, "Why didn´t you tell me your mum had invited us to go to Virginia?" Emma smiled nervous and took the phone.
"Hi, mum…"
-xx-
Finally, without even thinking too much about it, Emma decided to accept her mother´s invitation. It was easier saying "yes" than arguing and she really wanted to see her father and brother; plus it´d be the perfect opportunity for them to meet Will.
"Please don´t look at me like that" she asked him while the plane was on its way to Virginia
"I'm not looking at you in any way" he answered, "I was just curious as to why you didn't answer your mum's invitation before and why you didn't tell me that there was something troubling you…"
"I'm sorry will…I just, uhm, thought that she'd eventually forget about it….but I guess the reason she kept calling was because she heard I was dating you. She knew my marriage with Carl was over but I never talked to her about it-"
"It´s ok… I only wanted to help you, you know that, right?" she nodded resting her head on his shoulder, "Don´t worry, everything is gonna be ok. We´ll only stay for some days"
-xx-
"Dad!" Emma exclaimed when they met Mr. Pillsbury in the airport. She squeezed him between her arms into a warm and longing hug, "Dad, I´ve missed you so much!"
"Cherry!" he said returning the hug, "how´s my little bug?"
"Oh, Dad, I´m wonderful" she smiled widely releasing him, "I want you to meet Will Schuester. Will" she called him, "this is my dad". Will saw where Emma had taken her big brown eyes from. Mr. Pillsbury had some of the kindest and warmest eyes he had ever seen. A sincere smile appeared on his mouth.
"It´s nice to meet you, Mr. Pillsbury" Will said almost ceremonially
"C´mon, son, there´s no need for formality, call me Edward" Will laughed and nodded, "Your brother and mum are at home… a delicious meal is waiting for you, lovebirds"
Forty minutes later the three of them arrived at the Pillsbury home. They lived in a colonial style house, quite big for just two people; but he soon discovered Emma's and her brother's belongings were still there. Their bedrooms were preserved as if they´d never left home and when Will took the first look to the inside he could have easily thought this was still a big family house.
"The kids are here, Jenn!" Mr. Pillsbury announced with joy placing the bags near the stairs
Mrs. Pillsbury made her entrance almost instantly. Like Emma, she was a petite woman; blonde curls were falling through her shoulders.
"Emma!" she opened her arms in welcome.
"Hi, mum" Emma said with a tender smile, hugging her.
"You´re skinny, sweetie" she let her know squeezing her body as Emma rolled her eyes, "And who is this?" She asked politely with a smile, looking at Will.
"Mum, this is Will" Emma let her know, "Will this is my mum"
"It´s a pleasure, Mrs. Pillsbury"
"Call me Jenn, Will. It´s nice to meet you. Oh, my! You are so handsome!" Mrs. Pillsbury exclaimed looking at him and squeezing maternally his upper arm, "And your hair, oh Gosh, do you have a perm?"
"Mum!" Emma reprimanded her. Here we go
"It was an innocent question… But ok, you don´t have to answer" she winked at Will and guided him to the kitchen, "Now, C´mon, let me show you your bedrooms"
Bedrooms?
They all went to the first floor so Emma and Will could unpack their bags and freshen up for dinner. To Emma's surprise, her mother had prepared two separate rooms for them. She would sleep in her old room and Will would sleep in her brother's room. What the hell?
"Mum…?" Emma asked cautiously, "Wha-"
"Well, there´s no king size bed in your old room and your single bed is not big enough for both of you…"
She was right, but there was a double bed in the attic; so Emma interpreted that as intent from her mother to gain the control she had lost in the last years. She sighed and entered her old room with her father joining her while Mrs. Pillsbury showed Will his room.
"Take it easy, Cherry" he said softly, rubbing his hand across her back, "She´s missed you"
Emma sighed again, "I know… "She started unpacking carefully, "I´m glad you´ve finally meet him, dad"
"I´m glad I have too"
Will´s POV
In the following days, Will got to know Emma´s brother, Jeffrey. He showed up for tea time one afternoon with his pregnant wife, Mariah, and a basket with chocolates and champagne for dinner.
He was a nice man, just like his father and he could see he only had good intentions to his sister. He probably still felt guilty for Emma´s incident in the dairy farm years ago, causing her OCD; and that was possibly the reason he was such a loving brother now.
That night while Mrs. Pillsbury and Emma picked up the dishes from the table, Will, Jeffrey, Mariah and Mr. Pillsbury shared interesting conversations and laughter in the porch. He really liked Emma´s family; they were all caring and loving people, even her mother.
Jenn was certainly a peculiar woman; even when she could make sharp commentaries, and censuring observations he knew deep inside her, she only had love for her daughter. And yes, she could also make some uncomfortable remark about him, but he couldn't possibly take it personal because in fact anything she would say was directed to make Emma. And he knew that.
Emma´s POV
During the following days, Will and Emma spent a lot of time with Mr. and Mrs. Pillsbury. They would show Will the most interesting places of their town and they would spend their nights talking and sharing childhood memories.
Edward admired Will´s passion for life, for teaching; but especially he admired the passion he had for his daughter.
"It´s marvelous what you do with your kids, Will" he let him know one afternoon. They were having iced tea while Emma was preparing the biscuits, "Emma told us about it and how you did in Nationals"
"They are great kids… and so talented! I wish you saw them sometime…"
"I´m sure we will." He said looking at his wife, "and Emma´s doing so well since she´s with you-"
"Oh, no…" he cut him politely, "she´s doing that well thanks to therapy. Her Dr is really helping her with her OCD, with-"
"Therapy?" Mrs. Pillsbury suddenly asked. Emma joined them in the middle of the conversation carrying a trail with cookies; "She doesn´t need therapy" she sentenced with a smile. Denial was Mrs. Pillsbury´s best defense mechanism. "Do you, darling?"
Emma froze in her place; but before she could reply her mother kept going. ""You're okay! Why on Earth would you need therapy, huh?" she said as if it was an irrelevant topic. "You don't need it, besides we all know what kind of people go the therapy…" she let out a small laugh and took a sip from her cup. Emma´s eyes shined intensely.
What´s wrong with her? She´d give her one more chance to retreat from what she´d said. Because she felt her mother´s words were as hurting as a slap across the face.
"Mum…" she started as softly as she could placing the trail on the table and taking a deep breath, "You know I needed help-" she hated to discuss those kind of things with her mother.
"Hush, hush, Emma" Her mother cut her grabbing a cookie and offering the dish to her husband like anything had happened. It seemed like the discussion was already over. Mr. Pillsbury locked eyes with his wife and ignored her offering, not believing her reaction and looked up to find Emma had disappeared inside the house.
"Jenn…" Mr. Pillsbury sighed in frustration.
"Em…" Will called her standing up to go find her, but he immediately took his sit again. He just couldn´t leave without saying some things to Emma´s mother. "If I may, Mrs. Pillsbury." His voice was soft but had a tinge of indignation. "I'd like to tell you something about your daughter. I love Emma. I'm in love with her. She's a wonderful woman who's been through a lot. After her annulment her OCD controlled her life. Since she's started seeing Dr. Begler she's regained all that lost confidence. Did you know I found her cleaning a table with an electric toothbrush once? Did you know she lost almost 20 minutes a day scrubbing ever fruit she ate before lunch? Did you know she had issues with being intimate with a man because of that?" Mrs. Pillsbury was petrified, even shocked by Will's words, "that's what I thought. You should also know that pretending she doesn't need help is like saying 'you're wrong about your feelings. Everything that's happened was a lie.' but you know what? It's not." With nothing left to say he stood up and left to find Emma.
"Em…?" Will knocked at her door and opened it slowly. Emma was folding her clothes. Her suitcase was opened on her bed, "Wha-"
"I just can´t do this. I´m leaving" she sentenced. Her eyes were glossy, but she wasn´t crying. He could tell she hadn´t cried, "that was exactly the reason I wasn´t sure if we should come…" Will didn´t say anything. "She´s always done this" Emma let out a bitter laugh, "and I'm supposed to feel guilty now. But you know what? I won´t. I´m just… so upset. Why is she always trying to make me feel like a piece of garbage?" She had stopped packing and her eyes were locked with his.
"I-I don´t know, Em…" he could only respond. He leaned closer to her and embraced her body with his arms, rubbing her back to comfort her. "Are you sure you wanna leave?" he was hoping his words had touched Mrs. Pillsbury in some way.
"Yes" she lifted her head to meet her boyfriend´s loving hazel eyes looking at her. Her hand stroked his cheek smoothly and Will smiled at her. Then she took his fingers to travel along his jaw line and chin and when her eyes gazed his mouth he could only press his lips on hers to meet on a tender kiss. Emma wrapped her arms around his neck and he tightened his grip on her hips as her tongue brushed his lower lip, longing to feel him. Will immediately part his lips allowing her to enter; their tongues danced slowly on a rhythm that was only their own. He´d missed this. Their time alone, their intimacy. "I´ve missed you" Emma read his mind, caressing his chest. She had a playful smile on her face.
"Why?" Will teased her, "We´ve been together since we got here…"
"You know what I mean" she giggled and kissed him again; "I´ve, uhm, missed being with you…" her cheeks went lightly reddish.
"Oh" a devilish smirk appeared on his face, "well, we´ll have plenty of time to catch up when we get home-". She kissed him again, this time fiercer than before and Will smiled on the kiss. She could be very inviting sometimes. Before she could make any other move, they were interrupted by a knock on the door. Emma sighed and loosed her grip around her boyfriend and went to stand casually next to the bed.
"Yes?" she asked, imagining her dad would be behind the door to comfort her, like he always did. But for her surprised when the door opened, she saw her mother standing in the entrance; her eyes were slightly shinning and a guilty smile was delineated on her mouth. "What do you want, mum?" Emma asked her, trying not to show her emotional exhaustion.
"I- Will" when her eyes found his, he could only see regret; it seemed like his words had touched her somehow; "do you mind giving us a second?"
"No problem" he smiled and kissed Emma on the lips, "I´ll see you downstairs". And he disappeared closing the door behind him.
"Darling listen-" Jenn started approaching her daughter
"No, mum" Emma cut her fixing her eyes with Mrs. Pillsbury´s, "No. If you´re trying to make me feel guilty, save whatever you´re gonna say. We´re leav-"
"Don´t, please. Just hear me out, ok? Then decide if you wanna go" Emma raised an eyebrow and sat on the bed, inviting her mother to continue, "I´m sorry. I am" Emma couldn´t believe her sudden change of attitude. Since she had memory, this was the first time her mother apologized to her. "I don´t know why I reacted like that. I can see you are better from the last time we saw you. It´s just… I didn´t know you were having so many issues before therapy… maybe it was easier for me to pretend those problems were never there… and judging you severely had only proved I´ve been wrong the entire time."
"How- who?"
"Will verbally kicked my ass" Jenn sentenced with a chuckle. "He´s a great man" she let her know after a few seconds, "And I´d love to have both of you until the end of the weekend" And with that said, Jenn left the bedroom, leaving Emma sitting on the bed, not believing what just happened.
Downstairs, Mr. Pillsbury, Jeffrey, Mariah and Will were sharing wine and cheese while Mrs. Pillsbury was making dinner. She had returned from Emma´s room about 15 minutes ago, but her daughter had still remained there. Will wasn´t sure if he should go see her yet; it was obvious they had had a mother-daughter conversation and he had no intentions to influence on Emma´s decision. Steps sounds from the stairs took Will out of his thoughts. He looked back to see Emma coming downstairs and walking to the kitchen, where her mother was. She smiled at him before going in and finding her mother cutting vegetables.
"Do you need help with that?"
-xx-
Emma and Will would only remain in Virginia three or two more days before returning to Lima, since classes would start that Monday.
"Cherry, will you go to the grocery store? Your mum needs some fresh veggies for tonight…" Mr. Pillsbury asked her next day.
"Sure, I´ll go with Will and show him the town… We´ll take your truck, ok?"
"No prob" He threw her the keys in the air, "and since you go… buy me some tobacco for my pipe"
Will drove Mr. Pillsbury truck, as Emma refused to do it pleading it was a very large vehicle for her. Once they got to the grocery store, they picked the freshest vegetables they could find.
"Thanks for yesterday" she suddenly said coming close to him and planting a soft kiss on his lips, "If you hadn´t intervened the relationship with my mother would be inexistent by now"
"You´re welcome…" he responded caressing her cheek, "she seems to be nice, despite her commentaries" he chuckled
"Yeah…" Emma replied, "Want some cucumbers?"
"Of course. I´m gonna go find some wine… I´ll see you in the cash line"
Emma started collecting the rest of the vegetables and when she turned around, she accidentally collapsed with a tall brunette. "Oh, Jeez, I´m sorry!"
"Oh, no it´s- Emma? Emma Pillsbury?" The woman opened her eyes widely and a curious smile appeared on her face.
"Yes…" Emma responded with vigilance, "I am… Jan-Jannet?"
Emma almost fell on her back. Jannet was one of her dearest (not to say her only) friend during University. They were outcast, unpopular and lonely girls who only had each other; and they loved each other very much. She always understood Emma´s "issues", she never judged her or questioned her. She was always there for her until Emma left Virginia. And they lost contact. She hadn´t seen Jannet in a very long time.
"Oh my god! Emma!" Janet hugged her with tender, "It´s been so long!"
"Almost 13 years… "
"Are you back in Virginia?" Jannet asked stepping away, "Oh, you look so good! So changed!"
"I´m here with my boyfriend… We´re visiting my parents for a couple of days. You look great!"
"Em…?" Will appeared behind Jannet´s back, "Are you-? Hi!" He exclaimed noticing the woman standing in front of her
"This is my boyfriend, Will. Will, you have to met Jannet." Emma introduced both of them, "she was my best friend in Uni"
"It´s so good to meet you, Will" she shook his hand, "Mark is here. He´s gonna be thrill to see you, Emma"
"Mark…?" she questioned confused. "Mark Harris? You married Mark?"
"Yes! Mark! We got married 5 years ago!" she laughed at Emma surprised expression, "and we have a 4 years old boy!"
"Congratulations!"
"Listen, if you´re not too busy, why don´t you have lunch with us tomorrow? We´d love to have you guys"
"Yes, we´d love to!" Emma accepted for both
-xx-
Will, Emma, Jannet, Mark and little Jonah shared an abundant meal next day. They had a gorgeous house outside the city, with a huge garden where they ate.
After lunch they could catch up with their lives, the latest news and future projects and during their conversation Will discovered what great people they were. No wonder Emma appreciated the so much. Jannet was probably one of the kindest people he ever met and Mark was hilarious, pretty much like his own father.
"He likes kids, I can tell…" Jannet said smiling, watching Will play with Jonah
"He loves kids" Emma replied, "He´s gonna be such a great dad someday… He deserves the chance to have son…"
"Then you better start making one" Mark joked causing Emma to laugh
"You´ll never change, Mark"
"Thanks God" Jannet told her placing a kiss on her husband´s cheek. "Are you sure you have to leave already?"
"Yeah… those clouds don´t look so nice… and it´s getting late" Emma responded a little sad, "But it was so great to see you"
"You call us when you come back, ok?" Mark asked her hugging her friendly
"Of course we will" Emma hugged him back
-xx-
"I can´t see a damn thing" Will coursed on their way home, leaning forward trying to make out what was on the road. The storm had got them a couple of seconds after they left Mark and Jannet´s house. And to make it worst Mr. Pillsbury´s old truck had a terrible air conditioned system, causing the windows glasses to begin to mist.
Emma moved nervous on the seat. "Why don´t you pull over until the storm calms down?" She suggested wisely, "Mum and Dad can wait a little…"
"You´re right" Will agreed pulling the truck to the side of the road. He turned the engine off and silence invaded them. "I love hearing the rain" he told her, resting his head on the back of the seat.
"I love hearing the rain with you" Emma replied cuddling next to him. "You know… " She said after some seconds, lifting her head to meet his gaze, "I don´t think I've ever missed you this much"
"You´ve missed me?" He teased her, playing important
"Yes" she giggled brushing her hair behind her ear, "and I don´t think I´ve, uhm, thanked you enough for what you said to my mum…"
Will gulped and blinked several times. Was she actually…? His thoughts were interrupted when Emma seductively brushed her lips against his causing him to lose his breath. As she pulled back she bit her lower lip locking eyes with him, she recaptured his lips, this time more forcefully than before. He kissed her back, hoping she would eventually end the ministrations that were driving him crazy. She didn't, instead she climbed on top of him causing her dress to come up her thighs. Her legs rested to his sides and her frame was pressed against his torso.
Emma kissed him hungrily as her fingers run through his curls.
"Em…-" he called her between kisses
"Don´t" she interrupted him increasing the pressure on his hips, "don´t tell me we need to stop" she told him brushing their lips together once again.
Will chuckled. He loved the bold and daring Emma. But as much as he wanted to keep going, he knew he couldn´t.
"C´mon, be a good girl…"
"I´ve been… all my entire life" Emma whispered hotly to his ear. She could feel his jeans going tighter under her underwear.
"It´s not that I don´t want you-"
"Evidently" Emma interrupted him once more. She rocked her hips against his, feeling him, and leaned closer, "I can tell you want me, Will" she teased him with a purr.
"It´s just…" he managed to speak; he was about to lose it, "I kinda told your mum I'd keep my hands off of you"
"Ok, then… You keep your hands off. This is not about me." Will´s eyes widened, "I want to make you feel good" and with those words, Emma moved her body forwards him intensifying the pressure to his groin.
"Emma…" he moaned her name bringing his head back, surrendering to her touch.
"You´ve been so patient… so supportive... so wonderful…" she spluttered those words to his ear, stroking his neck firmly as her free hand unbuttoned his shirt revealing his perfect and toned pectorals. Emma kissed his chest, caressing every inch of exposed skin and even when she knew they wouldn´t actually be completely naked, she wanted him to feel her as much as he could. So she took her blouse of; Will behold her, not believing how much she was pushing her boundaries, how willing she was to satisfy him. He didn´t know if he deserved it.
Her name escaped his lips once more, when she rocked her hips against him more powerfully than before. And that time when the fabric of his jeans rubbed her center, she moaned his name. Emma moved forward to forth on top of him, speaking only adoring words. But after a couple of minutes she found herself struggling not to come, because obviously her body was also reacting to her actions. So she stopped and placed her hand sandwiching their bodies cupping his bulk.
Will froze to her new movement and when she ardently rubbed his jeans his eyes rolled back in pleasure.
"Holy sh-" he managed to groan under her weight, "Emma I´m gonna…"
"Please do" she required capturing his lips abruptly. She stroked him once more and moved her lips to suck lightly to his pulse.
"Em…" he groaned again and Will´s body tensed and his mouth slightly opened so the tension he had been accumulating was finally released. He took a minute to regain his breath. "That was… you´re… " He took her face in his hands and crashed their lips together in a passionate kiss. "What about you…?"
"I told you I wanted to make you feel good"
"You´re amazing" he said kissing her softly. When they broke apart, he told her half embarrassed half laughing, "I'm gonna need a new pair of jeans". Emma giggled.
"We´ll get some new ones when we get home"
Thanks everyone for reading! =)
