**AN: well, it's been too long since I've uploaded anything. I took my laptop in to get cleaned and fixed and that took longer than expected, also none of my continuing works were backed up…so I had to start from scratch…so that was a bummer, but I'm back now, and hopefully my updates will stay regular.

I've also moved to Wattpad (username is the same: LinaDanielle13) I've uploaded all my stories from here over there. FanFiction doesn't allow me to include fanfics from everything I want nor does it give way to upload any other type of fiction, which is what I have been working on. So I would appreciate it if you could follow me there…I'll be adding more Emison, Camren fanfic from Fifth Harmony soon and maybe my own personal work.

Thank you all for the support, I look forward to the comments and reviews here and on my other stories too! Much love, Lina

P.S. I apologize for any typos, grammar errors, and etc.

Chapter 39

"So, Lauren, right," Pam asked politely from across the dining room table, "how did you and Camila end up meeting Emily and Alison?"

Lauren looked up from her plate to clear her throat, "oh that's easy, Camila and Ali met in an English class and well I'm on the school's softball team, so during the school-wide athletes' meeting - it's like an orientation for all the kids in athletics – I met Em and I don't know, we just kinda became friends," Lauren smiled and shrugged her shoulders.

"Yep, that's our Emmy," Wayne cut in, "always had the biggest heart, easy to befriend."

Ali laughed and Em's cheeks flared red with embarrassment, "dad," she groaned.

Wayne laughed and held his hand on Em's shoulder, smiling endearingly.

Lauren laughed again and took her phone out in lightning speed, "say cheese Mr. Fields, you too 'Emmy'," Em shot a death glare while Wayne smiled a little too wide and Lauren captured the moment.

"Perfect."

"Lauren, I swear-"

"Emily!"

"Sorry mom."

Camila grabbed Lauren's hand and took a closer look at the phone, "oh Em that is perfect, just perfect, wait till your friends see this."

Ali shook her head, "oh they've seen this and much worse, although I'm sure Hanna will get a good kick out of it."

Once the laughing settled, everyone turned their attention back to the food.

"Mrs. Fields, these empanadas are amazing," Camila complimented after having eaten two herself and the rest of Lauren's.

"Why thank you Camila, I'm glad you liked them."

"Yeah, you better watch out though, Camz can eat like no other, if she gets too comfortable you'll have to hide the food until dinner."

Camila tried to argue but was cut off.

"Oh c'mon babe, don't argue, you know it's true, you eat more than Dinah does."

Camila made a look as though she was thinking about that and then shrugged in agreement.

"Oh that's alright Camila, you are welcome to our fridge and pantry for as long as you are staying here with us." Pam smiled and stood to begin taking the plates.

"Besides, I know just how big of an appetite Em can work up sometimes."

Lauren scoffed, "yeah, and so does Ali."

Alison, who was drinking water, nearly choked.

Pam luckily was already gone and Wayne was focused on the TV in the living room.

Em was red and just making sure Ali was okay while Lauren and Camila were muffling their laughs in each other's shoulders.

"Damn, the look on your faces was priceless. I may not know Hanna yet, but I'm sure she'll have a hard time keeping up."

Ali was finally able to catch her breath and look at Em before laughing, "we might be losing this bet Em."

Em just looked over at her new friends and bit her lip, "well Hanna has her work cut out for her, that's for sure."

That night went smoothly after dinner, Ali and Em helped Lauren and Camila into their room just adjacent to theirs and went downstairs to watch movies on the couch with their parents.

Lauren and Camila took the love seat near the fireplace and Ali and Em curled up on the floor with a blanket around them.

The movie ended and while Ali went with Wayne to pick another, hopping on the couch next to him and helping pick a movie from the TV screen, Pam addressed Em, "So Emily, how long will you girls be staying with us?"

Em looked at Camila who shrugged, "up to you."

Em looked at her mom, "uh, I wasn't too sure, we're going back to Rosewood to see the girls and we have two whole weeks off, so I guess it depends."

"Why, Mrs. Fields, you tired of us already?" Lauren joked, "see Camz, you ate all the food, it was too soon, now we have to leave."

Pam laughed, "no no, you stop it Lauren, I don't care about that, you girls can stay –and eat – for as long as you want. Wayne and I but too much anyways, maybe this way we don't waste anything," she turned to Camila and gave a reassuring smile, "sweetie," she whispered, "don't listen to her." She pointed to the green eyed girl next to Camila and Camila laughed.

"I like you Mrs. Fields."

"Please, you girls can call me Pam, I've heard and seen enough to know you two aren't going anywhere anytime soon. The girls love you, and so will the others."

Camila nodded, but Lauren was in shock, "yeah thanks but seriously?" she asked Camila.

"Emily! You're mom is being mean! She tag teaming over here, that's not fair!"

Emily laughed and Ali fell into a fit of laughter next to Wayne, her head falling easily in his lap while his head went back in a deep chuckle, "well Lauren we have only known you for a few hours but I can tell you this – my wife is not mean."

Ali sat up and joined in, "I mean she can be scary when she wants, but definitely not mean."

Lauren pouted, "sure, there's a first for everything you know?"

Pam stood and patted Lauren's head, "you want me to make popcorn to make up for it?"

Lauren flashed her white teeth and gave a smug look, "oh you're good."

"I'll take that as a yes, girls, I'll be right back, you can press play Ali."

Just as Ali was getting up from the couch, Wayne's phone went off, "excuse me girls, I need to take this."

Ali and Em shared a look. Alison knew how nervous Em got whenever her dad had to take a call like that and especially how uneasy she felt whenever her dad left. But things were different in California, her dad would be leaving active duty and working at a base to train new recruits for special forces. The job was way less dangerous and paid well but the main concern for Emily was only her father's safety and she was so appreciative for this new position he was offered.

Ali scooted herself next to Em and held her hand under the blanket, "Em, it's alright."

Em sighed and let Ali rest her head on her shoulder.

The movie was just going to begin when Wayne came back in the living room, his hand over the back of his neck.

"Dad, what's wrong?" Em sat up and looked worriedly for answers.

"Nothing Emmy, my commanding officer just wants me to come in as soon as possible."

"What, like now? They can't do that, when I called mom last week she said you were leaving the second of December, so why so early? I thought you were in charge? Tell them no."

"Emmy, I can't, they're bring new guys in now and want training to begin immediately. They want these guys ready by January."

"Dad, that's insane, I just got here."

Pam walked in and overheard it all, looking between Emily and Wayne apologetically.

"Sweetie, you know you're dad-"

"Yeah, but I thought things were different now?"

"Emmy they are, I just, this is my first assignment in this new position, I can't say no. The other men I'm working with are already there so they see no point in waiting. I have a flight tomorrow at 5pm."

Em ran her hands through her hair, taking a deep breath when Ali squeezed her hand.

It's okay, Emily thought, he'll be safe and out of harm's way, I just won't see him too much this break, that's okay.

"Okay."

"Okay?" Wayne looked confused.

"Yeah," Em said with more confidence, "you're not back overseas, you won't be shot at and I'm here with you now and I'm happy. My family is here, my girlfriend and I have my two new bestfriends…so okay. You have to leave tomorrow and that sucks but- but-"

"That's just life!" Lauren finished for her, sending Emily a smile.

"Exactly dad, that's life, so ok, you have to leave tomorrow, and I'm sure mom wants to go too, so why don't you too come back here and we'll have fun watching these movies?"

Wayne looked at Pam who hugged his waist, one bowl of popcorn in her hand and she kissed his cheek, and he leaned down to peck his lips to the top of her head. Looking up he smiled widely, "you're so smart and brave and loving Emmy, I'm proud of the women you've become."

Pam and Wayne walked back to couch, Pam stopping to hand the bowl to Lauren who took it happily and Wayne stopping to hug his daughter to his chest, "I love you sweetie, my little soldier."

"I love you too dad, make sure those guys know they're lucky to have you."

"Yeah, but not nearly as lucky as I am to have you."

The movie was watched, the popcorn eaten and then it was time for bed. It wasn't a particularly long drive from school to the Fields house, but after the week of finals they had had and everything else that went on, sleep was called for.

Everyone said their goodbyes and went off into their rooms and the house fell into a comfortable silence.

Ali and Em got ready for bed and just laid under the covers for a while, the silence broken up by the laughter of Camila coming through the walls and a quick scolding for Lauren to stop and be quiet.

Ali laughed, "god those two."

Em laughed along on rolled to her side to face Ali, Alison mirroring her movements.

Their eyes met and they held their gaze for a while, Alison taking in every curve of Em's face and Emily trying to count the flecks of light reflected in the blue ocean of Ali's eyes.

Moments seemed like hours before Ali spoke up, "Em, babe, where are you?" She reached her hand up and traced her fingertips along Emily's jawline.

Em closed her eyes and sighed. Ali knew that Em was right next to her but her mind was a million miles away.

"Ali, I'm right here." Em brought her hands around Alison's waist and pulled their bodies closer.

Alison sucked in a breath and put her forehead on her girlfriend's. "No, you're not," she argued softly.

Em sighed heavily and pulled away gently, meeting Ali's gaze, "then if I'm not here, I'm getting lost in your eyes. Swallowed in how blue and deep they are, Ali, you have the oceans in your eyes."

Ali blushed as Em ran her fingertips up her neck and along her jaw, cupping her cheek, "and I would gladly drown in your eyes if it meant feeling this close to you."

Em smiled and Alison struggled to find a response, when she did she smiled and moved her fingertips to brush the outline of Emily's lips, "and you Em, you have the words of a million love stories hanging from your lips, your tongue dipped in the eloquence you never knew you had. Em, you have the world in your hands."

It was barely a heartbeat that passed before Em answered back, "you are my world."

Ali's eyes roamed to her fingertips still on a full set of lips and she greedily brought her mouth to Emily's, pulling back within seconds to find air. Em moved her mouth to Ali's neck before she was pulled back up. Their lips collided again, rough and passionate in their fight for dominance, a fight that Ali lost this time.

In her new found dominance, Em quickly rolled her body over Ali's and slipped her hands under her shirt pulling it off and tossing it aside, doing the same to her own. Her knees were on either side of Alison's so that Ali was being straddled.

"Em," Ali whispered, "are you sure?"

Emily pulled away and was only able to answer Ali with the look in her eyes and the way her lips moved effortlessly against Alison's.

Breathless and lungs burning for the right amount of oxygen, Alison found her hands trailing paths across Emily's exposed skin, Em's heated breath coming out in pants in her ear, "I love you."

Ali kissed her way up Emily's neck, along her jaw, behind her ear and to the corner of her mouth, "I love you."

Emily kissed each cheek of Alison's and her nose, smiling widely, the rush of blood in her body match by the pounding organ in her chest.

"Always, Em." Ali added when her lips were free and her breath was caught.

"Until the oceans in your eyes run dry," Em answered.
