Me-A-Genius. No Emily is not a player.

Paige and Emily have been dating for the last 18 months. it has been better than good. Emily now lives in an apartment paige rented for them. Of course wayne had to agreed first. Emily practically decorated the whole apartment. Paige had given her a credit card to do as she pleases. Emily was raised well so she didn't misuse the card. Emily put different colors with a touch of a little of things from her culture. the apartment looked homey and colorful. Paige didn't really like too much color, but Emily did it and it was beautiful and a little of Emily's age so she understood. Emily had a small ford car wayne had bought for her, but he never allowed her took it to school now that she lived off campus Emily went with the car.

On her last birthday paige surprised Emily with a maroon Audi S5 as her birthday gift. Paige pretended to send the ford for servicing that day. They went for a romantic dinner. Emily didn't know paige knew it was her birthday. It was when they were at dinner that paige surprised her with a key In a box. At first emily was tensed, but when she saw the key she relaxed. She didn't know what the key was for Paige told her to just wait. When they got to the apartment Emily saw the car wrapped with a ribbon. She screamed got in and looks around the car with love and appreciation. Paige got in they went for a short ride and came back. Paige told Emily she asked wayne and he'd approved so she should feel free. her ford car has been returned home should she feel like driving when she went for her breaks. It was hanna that chose the car. She knew Emily had admired the car once.

Paige had earlier called Quinn, Emily's former roomate to decorate the bed with roses and put scented candles all over the room before the got back from dinner. It was the best birthday Emily ever had.

They made love that night three times. It was the longest they ever went. It was Emily's day and Paige did all those things Emily wanted, Emily was happy beyond words. They slept in till noon the next day.

Emily wanted sex a lot and paige wasn't the type to do a lot of rounds. She always took her time to make love and gave Emily pleasure, but when they both came she just wanted to hold Emily and slept. She wasn't the type to show too much affection like Emily wanted. She kissed and held Emily ofcourse in front of everyone, but Emily wanted to kiss her longer, sit on her all the time. She wanted those things. she understood Emily was younger and more outgoing. Emily was a talker in bed she told paige what she wanted. She wanted different styles she wanted paige to tell her what she wanted or fantasized and paige was the shy type. She Mostly moans or say 'em' . Emily wanted paige to talk dirty, dominant her and Paige wasn't really like that. She tries to do as Emily wanted just to keep up. She learnt when she did those things it normally satisfied Emily the first round so she tries to do them so Emily will let her sleep. She truly loved Emily like she never did any girl . She just wanted to make Emily understand it was okay to love each other in their own ways. That love was more than just physical pleasures. You could love each other even when you were too old and sex wasn't the 'A' thing then. Emily understood, but insisted if paige wasn't too shy and more forward with her who else will she share those intimate sacred times with?. of course with paige.

They both made sense and both understood a long term relations needs not just love and care it also needs respect, compatibility and compromise for it to be sustained. At this point they were already In love they just needed to sustain it.

Their first fight was during one of Emily's breaks. she was staying with paige in the New York apartment. when Emily went to suprise paige at the office. Paige was happy she she came. Emily was turned on when she entered the office saw paige seated with reading glasses with her power suit looking so sexy. They started making out and Emily wanted more, she wanted to fuck Paige on her desk and Paige refused to give in. Emily thought it was sexy, but paige wouldn't have it. God if some one came in, God forbids her own mother found out. Emily rushed to lock the door, but paige still refused. She just wouldn't give in Emily was pissed so she left back to Paige's apartment. That day paige had a lot of work so she put that behind her and did her work. When she got home that night Emily had already slept. Paige tried to wake her to talk, but she was deep asleep or pretending to be in deep sleep. Paige let.

The next day while Emily was busy making breakfast wearing only a short and a vest. Paige quietly walks to her naked. Grab Emily and Started smooching her from behind Emily was still feeling hard to get. Paige off the gas took her and drops her on the kitchen table. She pulled Emily closer kisses her hard then She pulled Emily's shorts and vest with in one swift move. Emily was shocked. Paige pulls her closer again took her already harden right breast in her mouth sucks and sucks then took the other one and did the same. She then widen Emily's legs apart, puts them on her shoulders and ate Emily out. Emily was talking in tongues. Paige who wasn't one of those fond of kissing after licking, kissed Emily hard and entered her with two fingers. Emily wasn't going to last long. Paige thrusts fast and hard and Emily came hard. She collapses on paige shoulders. Paige kisses Emily's sides and told her never to doubt she wanted her as much. it just might not be as she might always want. Emily said sorry and held onto paige. After some few minutes, paige put Emily's legs around her then carries her to the bed kissing her along the way for round two. they made sweet love then felt asleep.

It was about 15 months ago when paige finally met hanna. Hanna had made someone in South Africa. He was an America who works for an American company that had offices all over the world. At the time he and his boss were working in Nigeria. They had a conference in South Africa for a week that's when he met her. His name is Caleb rivers. He is the IT head of the company he works for. The relations was mind blowing. They had a lot in common. They were perfect for each other. So when hanna was done in South Africa she went to the country Caleb was staying at for another month then flew back to the U.S. She and Emily misses each other, but really felt happy for each other.

When Hanna finally came back she went straight to New Jersey. Paige was so nervous she wanted hanna to like her. Hanna had refused to Skype with paige she wanted to meet her in person and analyze her herself not just what Emily was selling or telling her.

Emily was cooking as usual so paige went to pick hanna. Paige held the sign ' EMILY's HANNA!'.

As hanna approached paige, she saw her and waves. Hanna smiles and stood in front of paige. Just looking at paige then paige said"hi" shyly, Hanna just kept looking at Paige then says "hello". They shakes hands and Hanna said she had seen paige before. Paige said probably from Emily or some magazine she must have done an interview in. Hanna said no in person, but she didn't recall where. Paige said maybe passing by in airports or somewhere. Hanna says probably yes, she was sure she had seen paige somewhere, but she couldn't recall where. After the awkward meeting Hanna just drops her box for Paige to pull then Starts walking pass her. Paige just pulls the handle and follows her. They got to the car paige drove.

On the way she put on some music, Adele's. Hanna told paige if she was trying to get her approval she was doing a good job. Paige didn't understand what hanna meant so Hanna says Adele's first album was what she listens to sometimes while she works. Paige swore Emily never told her. She just genuinely loves Adele. From there on they talked about songs, films, cars and video games. Caleb had taught Hanna some games which paige also played. They found out they had some few similar likes and Hanna appreciated paige's fun side and humbleness she was sure paige would cherish her Emily forever.

Immediately they stop at the apartment, Emily ran out and hugs Hanna. They held each other then peck on the lips it was sweet and emotional moment for the two besties. Emily had cooked Hanna favorite, Hanna and paige ate a lot. Hanna loved Paige's respect for food. Hanna told paige she used to be fat so she doesn't eat as much now days, but she has always loved Emily's red indian cuisines. They joke and watched tv. when it was late Hanna went to the guest room and Emily thank paige for picking Hanna. She told Paige to just be herself she knows Hanna already loves her that who wouldn't. The next day hanna made paige take her to a club, made her dance and went to play some video games at the arcades. At the end of the two days paige was spending there came to an end she was beat. when she went back to New York she could hardly go to work the next morning.

Shana wasn't happy paige had met Emily's bestie and she hadn't met the Emily. So the next weekend paige invited Shana to spend the weekend in New Jersey with them. Emily had told hanna who had left for New York three day after paige left. that paige was going back for the weekend with her bestie, hanna insisted paige should pick her up so the three can go back to New Jersey together by car. Throughout the ride Shana and hanna fought. They fought about music, Paige's driving, who was more lucky paige or Emily. The experience was just too much for paige.

When they got to the apartment Emily was shocked and grateful to see hanna. She didn't tell her she was going to follow them. Shana surprised paige by being too nice to Emily. At first paige thought she was pretending, but she wasn't. Shana explained to paige she had never seen her that happy for all the years they had known each other so, she had already approved emily. she just wanted to see paige happy with emily in their bubble of love with her own eyes. Paige was glad. It meant a lot to her. When it came to hanna it was a different case to say the least.

they bickered, pushed and pulled. Emily decided never to have them together again unless it was necessary. To Shana and hanna though they were because they knew Paige and Emily were lucky to have not just each other, but people like themselves as their best friends. They all had each other's back. At the end of the weekend, the trip back was a blast. When Emily called paige to ask about their trip back she was shock to hear they were still out hanging before paige dropped them home. She felt more happier than ever.

The first time Emily met the McCullers family, few months ago she was so nerves. What Paige predicted wasn't the case. She thought her mother was going to make the whole dinner awkward. She was wrong. When Emily and wayne arrived paige was outside waiting for them. she turned and saw her mother standing just behind her. She asked why. she told her she was standing to welcome her in laws. Paige begged her mother to behave and that she did. She personally stood there and welcomed them then had a conversation with them the whole time during dinner. She listened and asked questions politely paige and Aria were stunned the whole time. If you didn't know Evelyn you would have thought paige lied about her mother.

Aria didn't cause any problems that time. she didn't talk much either. she just observed and chipped in once in a while. She didn't approv how it started, but paige was happy that was all that matters.

Emily was visited four times after that. And all those times it was Evelyn that invited her. She felt proud to show off Emily. Emily was brilliant and has a breathtaking beauty and manners. Emily had asked paige why she doesn't call her em or hon like she always does while in front of Evelyn . Paige pointed to Emily in their family it was more respectful to say one's name of his fiancée. Their mother didn't like pet names. She didn't approve. paige just pleaded with emily to just let it go. Evelyn was so nice emily thought paige was making too much of it until one time paige called Emily to introduce her to some of her mother's friends and she said 'hon' and Evelyn says. "paige dear please call her name properly so they know what to call her would you". Paige did as instructed then gave Emily a look "I told you so" . Emily just faked a smile then spoke to them. Emily understood what paige meant. Evelyn was nice, but also very annoying.

Paige told Emily she was going to their store in California. She wasn't going to be at New Jersey that weekend. Wayne called her and asked her to come home she hasn't been there for a while. On a Saturday morning as Emily woke she heard some noises out back at the ranch. She got dressed and went out to see what the commotion was all about. Just when she step out she saw some one riding one of their horses. As she got closer she saw her dad and the marins hailing the rider who was going back and forward with some mild stunts. As Emily reached where they stood, they all said Emmy "hey" then continued to look towards the rider. Emily looked closer and saw it was paige. She opened her mouth flabbergasted. She looks at her family and asked "what the hell". They all pretended to not know what was going on. Emily Smiles and jump and asked "what was happening". they all kept watching paige as if they weren't hearing her then paige finally came to a stop in front of Emily smiling. She removed her cap and the glasses smiling at Emily. Emily just moved closer held the ropes smiling at Paige then asked. "have told you how much I love you?". Paige answered "yes, but not today". Emily then told her she loved her very very much. The marins who were dramatic set of people were making whistle sounds with their mouths and saying go paige, go Emmy. Wayne just smiles watching them. They were all glad paige could now ride. It meant a lot to them.

Paige came down then kneels in front of Emily and opens the box with a beautiful diamond ring then shyly asks. Emily to marry her. Emily held her mouth with both hands turns to wayne then the Marins who were all smiling, nodding at Emily to say yes. Emily said yes. Paige stood up pulled Emily Into a kiss. Everyone clapped, hugged and wished them well. Emily realized they all planned it. When she came out the house they had a nonchalant attitude about the rider and even Emily seeing paige on the horse. The pretended as if it was nothing. It's now clear, they were hailing paige to be bold so as Emily will see her on a horse for the first time.

Emily didn't know Paige had been going to Wayne's whenever she could for the last couple of months. Papa Marin and Wayne coached her through. She had done a lesson or two about horse riding online. So, after asking Wayne's permission she told him she was going to propose to Emily on Khal. They did everything they could, but Khal didn't budge. So just to be safe the marins showed paige another horse which was also close to Emily and it was a success. Paige told Emily all about it that night. Emily pouts to hanna on the hand for not telling her and Hanna just hugged and kissed her then told her it was a surprise. she should just let it go. It was all worth it and wayne was in it too. He asked Emily home just so paige could propose. The had a laugh that night everybody was so happy.

That day Paige spent the night at Wayne's. They talked about their wedding some more, made love and slept. They both felt happy and contented. They had come a long way from the first night they'd met when paige nervously reported for duty.

After some weeks, Emily finally finishes her final exams. She was going to see Paige in two days. She hard done her clearance. Attended some few parties and said goodbyes. Paige had booked her a ticket for the shot journey from New Jersey to New York. She didn't want Emily to drive alone. She was too busy to pick her and didn't fully trust the office drivers. they could be rough drivers atimes.

finally when emily arrived she went straight to Paige's place. She thought she was going to be in waiting for her. Just as she enters she realizes paige still wasn't back and hasn't call so she calls her, but she wasn't answering. she calls the office line and she was told Paige had left like an hour ago so she went and took a bath then waited.

Emily felt asleep on the couch still waiting. By the time she woke it was already evening time. She had slept for two good hours and paige still wasn't back. It was unlike paige not to come home knowing Emily was home nor call her so, Emily checks her phone and realized it was off. the battery had ran out. She pluggs in the charger then went to get some water, some painkillers for her headache and something to eat too.

By time Emily came back her phone had almost thirty missed calls. From wayne, Hanna, Aria even Evelyn. Emily drops the cup, picks her phone and redials Wayne's call first. As the phone was ringing she hears banging on the door. She felt confused wayne didn't pick so, she redials while walking towards the door. as she opens it wayne was picking her call while standing outside with Shana beside him. Emily started to ask wayne what was going on when she notices Shana wasn't herself. She had a bloody eye and her looks was all serious she then properly turns towards her dad. Before she even asks wayne told her that paige was in an accident. She was in the hospital they needed her to come with them..

Emily couldn't move. Wayne shakes her and told her she should move they had to go. She didn't so he removes the keys and locks the door. He pulls Emily with him and drove them to the hospital. Not a single word was spoken. The only sound heard was shana's crying. Emily didn't cry she still didn't fully understand what was going on. She just wanted her dad to drive fasted so she could see paige. She was sure there was a misunderstanding. come on she just spoke to paige some few hours ago... No. She didn't actually. it was last night No, it wasn't last night too. It was two days ago when paige called to ask about her final brutal accounting paper...

To be continued...
