The Following Day

Naomi

It was our first day back at work, neither of us had enjoyed the thought of going in this morning but it was mid-morning now and I was back into the swing of things. Emily had been in and out all morning but it was strange as she usually came to see me before she went out but today she hadn't, the only reason I knew she was out was because every time I phoned to speak to her she wasn't there, it was always someone else's voice I heard when it was her own voice I wanted to hear.

Effy knocked on the door of my office, I beckoned her in and she sat opposite me "I brought you a coffee; you don't look your usual happy self."

I smiled weakly "I'm fine, I'm just worried about Emily, she's been acting strangely this morning."

Effy smiled "You know Emily she'll be planning something for you, you are her world Naomi so I don't think you have anything to worry about."

I smiled "Yeah, you're probably right."

Effy laughed "I'm always right, you should know that by now, anyway did you have a good time in Ireland."

I laughed "Yeah we had a fucking amazing time, mum loved Emily and welcomed her into the family, they got on like a house on fire, I even had a good chat about my future with Emily with mum, she brought up marriage and I didn't freak out but I did tell her I couldn't ask Em as it was too soon."

Effy smiled "It's never too soon if the love is real which anyone can see it is with you two, anyway what else did you get up to?"

I showed Emily round the sights and showed her the places I did my growing up, I even opened up to her more about my past, I don't want to depress her with it all but I want her to know I trust her with my life."

Efffy smiled "Naomi she knows you trust her, everyone can see the connection the pair of you have and how strong it is."

I smiled "Thanks Eff, anyway what did you get up to whilst we were away?"

Effy went quiet "Oh not much, same old really."

I raised my eyebrows "Effy Stonem you can't fool me, what's going on?"

She lowered her gaze and quietly said "I slept with Cook."

I was shocked "What! Eff are you being serious, why?"

She looked up "I don't know, it just happened, we had been out and he walked me home and I invited him in for a coffee and then one thing led to another. I wasn't even drunk for a change."

I couldn't help but look surprised "Do you want it to go further?"

She quickly shook her head "No, I mean it was great fucking sex but no Cook isn't really relationship material. He is just carrying on as normal; I don't really know how I should act."

I still looked surprised but tried to hide it "If you want things to back to how they usually are I suggest you just act normal too."

She smiled "Yeah I guess. Right I better get back to work thanks Naomi."

I smiled "Anytime."

An hour later there was a knock on my door, I looked up to see Emily before going back to what I was doing, she walked in and sat down opposite me. I looked up again "What do you want?"

Emily looked a little surprised "Naoms, what's the matter?"

I couldn't help but feel annoyed as I looked at her "You're seriously asking me that, I have been fucking worried sick about you all morning, you just seemed to disappear off the face of the Earth, you never phoned me to let me know where you were like you normally do."

Emily was a little shocked "Naomi, I forgot, I'm here and I'm fine, you had nothing to be worry about.

I just couldn't seem to stop the anger that was rising inside of me, I knew Emily was ok and I knew she wouldn't have done it on purpose but I just snapped "You forgot, you fucking forgot, you know how much I worry about you Em and it's only because I fucking love you. I just like to know you are safe, you hear all the horror stories about London the same as I do and it would be the end of me if anything happened to you."

I saw a tear slipped from her eye "I didn't tell you Naomi because I was planning something for you, something that I want to be a fucking surprise. You worry about me too much I can look after myself; I always did before I met you."

I couldn't bring myself to meet her eyes, I couldn't even speak because I knew if I did I would say something I would regret. Emily pushed her chair back and ran from the room slamming the door shut behind her. I let my head fall into my hands the tears falling from my eyes. Effy came running in "Naomi, are you ok? What the fuck just happened, I saw Emily just run from the building saying something about needing the afternoon off and you are in here crying your eyes out."

I looked up "I think I just screwed things up, we had a big fight, why couldn't I have just kept my mouth shut or asked her nicely about it, I was only worried about her."

She put her arm around my shoulder "Naomi why are you still fucking here, go after her, sort it out."

I shook my head "No we need some time to cool down, what if I have ruined it all Eff, I can't lose her, I just can't."

She smiled softly "You won't lose her Naomi, you are crazy about one another and everyone can see that, now what you are going to do is go and take a walk, calm down and then go home and talk to her."

I smiled weakly "Thanks Eff."

She smiled "You don't need to thank me that's what friends are for and make sure you let me know how things go later."

I grabbed my coat and bag and walked away "I will do."

A few hours later I still couldn't bring myself to make my way home; I had been wandering around Hyde Park for hours everything just playing on my mind. I stumbled across a small café as I wandered the streets and ordered myself hot chocolate realising how cold I was suddenly feeling, time seemed to be ticking by so slowly and I knew I had to go home at some point, I knew I had to face Emily and see if we could work this out. I finished my hot chocolate and decided it had to be now. I stepped outside and looked at my watch surprised to see it was nearly 8pm, I wondered if Emily would be worried about me or whether she really wouldn't care at the moment, would she even be in. I made my way home and slowly opened the door and climbed the stairs opening the door at the top "Emily, are you home?"

She didn't reply, I dropped my bag and went into the living room. Emily came out of the kitchen and looked over to me "Is this your way of paying me back or something by fucking staying out until this time and making me worry sick."

I smiled weakly "No Em, I would never do that to you."

She looked at me and I could tell she was cross "So it's just me that's the heartless bitch that would do that to someone then."

My heart felt like it was breaking as I saw just how much I had hurt Emily "No, I didn't mean it like that. I have spent the afternoon wandering the parks and streets thinking everything through, I didn't think you would want me back here. Em, I'm sorry, I really am, I shouldn't have been angry at you like that. I'll grab some stuff and go stay at Effy's tonight, give you some space."

She shook her head as she walked towards me; she kissed me hard, our tongues crashing together. She pulled back "It's me that should be sorry, I know you worry and I know it's because you care, no I know it's because you love me. I want you here Naomi, here with me. I don't want to fight with you." She pushed her lips to mine again and I couldn't help but moan at the much needed contact. She gripped on my shirt quickly undoing the buttons so she peel the garment away, she tossed it to the side not caring where it landed as she never broke our kiss. My bra quickly followed as her hands moved over my skin until she cupped my breasts, I couldn't help but moan loudly, how did this girl always make me feel so fucking good. Her lips moved down my body and she took a nipple into her mouth, licking and biting as she set my body on fire. My legs were trembling and I wasn't sure how much longer I could support myself, Emily must have picked up on this as she pushed me backwards and pinned me against the wall our lips crashing together once again in an urgent kiss, my hands were wandering everywhere over her body as she trailed kisses down my body over my stomach, she made quick work of the button on my trousers and slid them over my legs, my underwear soon following as I kicked them out of the way. Emily dropped to her knees and began kissing my inner thighs; my breathing grew erratic as my body trembled. I grabbed Emily's hair and pulled hard, my knees almost giving way as her tongue hit my most sensitive spot before pushing deep inside of me, her fingers concentrating on the fire burning out of control between my legs. I knew I was close as Emily drove me crazy pushing deeper and deeper, she curled her tongue inside of me pushing me over the edge, a mind blowing orgasm ripping through my body. The only thing stopping my whole body collapsing onto the floor was Emily's body pressed against mine as she climbed up my body her lips finding mine as she brought me down from my high.

As I began to relax I roughly pulled Emily as close to me as I could biting down on her neck sucking on her pulse point. I quickly pulled her top over her head and followed this instantly with her bra tossing them to the side making sure they were completely out of the way. As Emily groaned I shuffled her backwards in the direction of the sofa and pushed her down wasting no time in covering her body with mine. I slid my body slightly down hers sucking one nipple followed by the other between my lips loving how they instantly hardened at my touch, I could feel Emily's body writhing beneath me as she groaned loudly, she dug her nails into my skin as I trailed a line of kisses over her stomach, I popped the button on her jeans and slid them down with Emily helping as she wriggled her way out of them quickly followed by her underwear. I spread her legs and stroked my fingers over the inside of her thighs before pushing one followed by another inside of her. She cried out as I pumped hard and fast deep within her. I circled her clit with my tongue making Emily thrust her hips towards me as I pushed her closer to the edge. Her whole body was trembling under me as I felt her muscles contract around my fingers, she screamed out my name over and over as her orgasm ripped through her entire body. I continued to pump my fingers inside her as I trailed a line of kisses back up her body giving her the time she needed to relax.

As Emily's body relaxed she wrapped her arms around me as I rested my head on her chest, she was showering me with soft kisses before she whispered "We should fight more often if that is how we get to make up."

I laughed "As mind blowing as that was I hate fighting with you Em."

She smiled as I looked up at her "I hate fighting with you too; maybe we will just have to pretend to fight."

I laughed "Yeah that sounds better. I really am sorry though, I shouldn't have shouted at you like that."

She smiled "No I should have told you where I was heading out to like I usually do, I didn't mean to worry you."

I smirked "So what is this surprise you are planning?"

She laughed "There is a clue in the word you just used and I'm not giving anything away, you will just have to wait and see."

I pretended to sulk "You know I don't like surprises."

She smirked "You'll like this one; well I certainly hope you do anyway."

She wrapped her arms tighter around me "So apart from worry about me did you get up too much else this morning?"

I smiled "Had a catch up with Effy, told her all about Ireland but it is what she told me that shocked, she knows I'll tell you but I wouldn't mention it to her, she slept with Cook whilst we were away, didn't really say much about it just that it happened one night and nothing more was said between them, everything has just gone back to normal."

She raised her eyebrows "Well I never saw that coming."

I laughed "No neither did I, she says nothing more will happen but I say watch this space."

Emily giggled "Well you can keep me updated; you see them together more than I do."

I smiled "Oh I shall do."

She kissed the top of my head before sliding out from underneath me, she grabbed my hand and pulled me up "Come on I think we have some more making up to do."

I smiled as she pulled me towards the bedroom, maybe that fight and the time apart was a little bit worth it.
