Emily gets all her papers ready as she turns her head and hears the yelling outside Wonder what’s going on out there She shakes her head No that’s between Chris and his wife I shouldn’t interfere  Chris walks back into the room “Sorry about that Em”

“It’s fine sounded like a heated conversation”

Chris sighs “Yeah that’s what we seem to do a lot of”

“Oh sorry Chris I didn’t mean to”

Chris holds up a hand cutting her off “It’s fine it’s not a big secret around here that we’re having problems” Chris smiles then sits down in front of her “Now before we get down to business can we go somewhere afterwards maybe have lunch?”

Emily nods her head “Of course Chris we have many years of catching up”

Chris chuckles “Yes we’ll have years of catching up now how can you help me out with those wolves they call the press”

Emily laughs then she smiles “Look it’s simple Chris all you gotta to is tell them what they want to hear”

“Well that’s simple enough”

“You act up they’ll eat you alive you put on a smile and be perfect they’ll eat it up”

Chris nods “I get it now do I have any press conferences coming up?”

Emily looks at the schedule “Nothing today but you have a conference tomorrow”

“I’ll be there and I’ll let Becca know too” Chris stands “Now how about that lunch?”

Emily grins then stands “I’m glad I’m straving”

Chris and Emily head down to the nearest café and Chris orders them some coffee and some food. They take their seats “So Em tell me all about yourself”

“Well after college I went to England for a while got a writing job”

“How was that?”

“It was fun but then I missed home so I came back started working anyone job at a paper for 2 years I saw the opening for your job and here I am”

Chris grins “I glad you did I’ve missed you you know we lost contact after graduation”

“I know Chris I wanted to contact you but I saw you living your life I thought you were happy”

“You shouldn’t believe everything you see Em”

“Yeah I know that now considering how unhappy you are in your marriage why did you marry her?”

To forget about you Chris shakes his head “I was in love with her that’s why” Forgive me for the lie I can’t tell her yet

“And now?”

Chris shrugs “I guess the marriage wasn’t meant to be” He shakes his head “But enough about me what about you any relationships”

Emily shakes her head “Not rally didn’t really have time to date while I was working a few guys and a few dates but nothing serious”

I’m glad no other guy should touch he Chris smiles “So do you staying here permanently?”

“Well you’re here so maybe Chris but don’t forget about the wedding”

“I haven’t forgotten I called Tyler last night he made swear that I’ll be a groomsman 15 times”

Emily laughs “Of course I’m gonna be a bridesmaid I’m gonna need a partner”

Chris blushes Oh man seeing her in the dress is gonna drive me wild He shakes his head getting rid of the thought “I’ll be glad to be your partner in the wedding Em”

Emily giggles “Good Chris” Her phone beeps “Oh I better get going now gotta go meet the guys bringing my furniture”

Chris stands “Oh of course Em I’ll see you tomorrow”

“See you Chris and don’t forget what I said!”

“I won’t!”

Chris waves as she walks away then he sighs and smiles “She’s so amazing”
