The Accidental Wife (Emily and Julian)

"Man! You gotta shoest pour son! You have a chance! Knox excitedly tells me and I frown. What does he mean?

"You need to make yeast more. The cost is dear! Why is he speaking in ricelles

Do you realize that you've still being vague? What the hell do you mean I ask. The evident exciternent in his voice tells me that he's the bearer of good news, yet he still hasn't figured out a way to let me know what he wants to say.

"Rosie likes you!" he exclaims in a quiet voice and my eyes go wide. How is this possible? "I swear I heard her?" he asserts.

"Beard her? Who was she talking to?" I frown, still unable to wrap my mind around what I have just heard.

"Sabrina. She

told her that she didn't want to act anymore, and she was starting to develop feelings for you. She also said that she wanted to get your attention, but she didn't know how to do it! Get my attention? She already has my undivided attention. Am 1 not making my feelings clea Maybe I should be more precise with my words. I need to make the first move. It's already bad that I haven't made a move until now, but I cannot leave her waiting any longer.

Tonight, I'm going to pour my heart out to her. This is the sign I need to tell her that I truly love her. No, I can't tell her that I love her at first. I don't want her to think that I'm love-bombing her. I certainly don't want to freak her out.

"Speaking of Sabrina, I can see that you can't keep your eyes off of her." I smirk, looking at my best friend.

Yeah..." He awkwardly scratches the back of her neck. "I think I want to ask her out."

"Do that. She's single and Rosie says that she is really nice. I trust Rosie's judgment," I tell him.

"You trust anything Rosie says because you're whipped!" He lightly punches my shoulder.

"Can't wait to see you whipped as well." I chuckle.

Rosie and I leave around nine at night. I'm glad that she had fun, but it's easy to see how exhausted she is.

"You look sleepy," I say as I stop at a red light.

"I usually seem sleepy when I'm out, but once I step inside my apartment, energy flows through my body and I stay awake for long afterwards," she replies. "I want to ask you something." "Sure." I nod.

"Is Knox a good guy? I saw the way he kept acting around Sabrina and I really love her and don't want her to get hurt." Typical Rosie. She always looks out for those she loves.

"Knox is a great guy. He's not a player. You don't need to worry about her when it comes to him," I assure her. "Do you have anything to do tomorrow?" I ask her.

"I finish my lectures at one, then I'm free. Why are you asking?"

"I want to take you out," I reply. I'm not going to sugarcoat my words anymore. I mean what I have just said. I want to take her out on a date. I thought about telling her about how I truly feel the moment we're back. However, the more I thought about it the more I realized tha "In this case, do you think you can take me to the Winter Amusement Park?" she shyly asks. This isn't the plan I had in my mind, but I will do whatever she wants.

V with it my coke." I tell her. Despite the darker, her smile doesn't escape my notice.

I'm not wir if I will be able to deep tonight. All that I know is, Fan't wait for tomorrow to come, because I know that the moment I'm going to admit my feelings for her, nothing is going to be the same.

She looks absolutely amazing today. As always, her outfit is simple, yet it looks like it's made for her. Her hair is up in a ponytail, but I'm sure that she's going to let it down by the end of the day because keeping it up for long gives her headaches. "Which ride do you want to start with?" I ask her. The place is slightly crowded, but Rosie seems to be happy even before we start going on rides. I don't need anything else. Her happiness is enough for me.

"Let's start with something easy," she says, scanning the place with her eyes. "Maybe bumper cars!" She excitedly looks at me.

"Let's go." I nod, smiling. I take her hand in mine and head to where the bumper cars are.

Rosic seems to like bumping into me during our whole turn and whenever I try to run away from her, she always finds a way to bump into me. I love the mood she is in. She is playful and happy and this version of her is my favorite one. "Look at this rainbow cotton candy! I'm gonna buy one!" Like a happy kiddo, she rushes to the stand and I laugh as I follow her.Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

"Do you want one?" she asks me and I nod. When she's about to pay, I quickly give the guy the money and she frowns at me. "I told you I was going to get it."

"You don't pay when you're with me, Rosie," I tell her and hand her one of the cotton candies.

"And why is that?" She tilts her head to the side.

"Because this is how girls are supposed to be treated, cupcake," I reason with her.

"But it's not fair to you to pay for everything," she argues, trying to convince me that it's okay to let girls pay. The thing is, I'm an old school and I don't believe that girls should ever pay.

"According to how I was raised, it's pretty fair." I shrug. "Anyway, which ride do you want to go on now?" I change the subject.

"Skyscreamer!" she exclaims.

"Let's go, gorgeous." I take her to the ride she wants. I keep my eyes on her as the ride starts going up. Pure joy is evident on her flawless face and the more I look at her, the more I realize that I would do anything to always see this smile on her face. "Why are you staring at me? You should enjoy the view from up above! It's amazing," she says, looking at me.

"Trust me, I'm enjoying it very much. Seeing you this happy is my new favorite view." I don't care if I sound cheesy, because I'm telling her the truth. I don't understand how this happened, but Rosie has become my entire universe. Everything I do revolves around her. Rosie looks like she is lost in her own words with a simple yet breathtaking smile on her face. Her head is tilted backward and her arms are spread beside her. I manage to take my phone out of my pocket and snap a few pictures of her. She looks at me and her smile beco "I wanna see the pictures!" She practically jumps in front of me once we get down.

I unlock my phone and show them to her.

"Oh my God, Silas! They're amazing!" She wraps her arms around me and I'm quick to embrace her.

"Rosie, there's something I want to tell you," I say, taking a deep breath once she lets go.

"What is it?" She turns to look at me. The thoughts in my head are so loud, that they blur the crowd around us. This is a crucial moment in my life and I don't want to mess everything up. My heart is loud and I'm doing everything in my power to stop my hand from shaking." Knox told me that he heard her telling Sabrina that she had feelings for me, so I'm not sure how I'm that nervous.

"What I'm about to say will

change everything between us, but I'm willing to take the risk because I can't wait anymore," I nervously say. There's a possibility that she likes me, yet she doesn't want us to be anything more than friends. There are a lot of possibilities. "Rosie, I... I like you a lot and I've h speak out my feelings for you. I didn't know how to act around you. You paralyze my brain and make me unable to think or act rationally. I thought I could continue suppressing my feelings, but I can't. I can't do that. I know that you may walk away from me and this is the las
