The Accidental Wife (Emily and Julian)

I kissed her last night. I now know how her lips taste like, and the thing is, I've been craving them ever since. I wish I could kiss her again, but when we pulled apart, the first thing she said was 'this is a big mistake. I didn't know what else to say except to agree with her. Deep down, I know that this is not a mistake. It was never a mistake to me. She tasted like she was made for 1 A surge of jealousy takes over my body when I imagine her kissing anybody else. It doesn't seem right. Rosie should be mine. I know how to treat her right. I won't hurt her like her

CX.

A knock on my door pulls me out of my thoughts.

"Come in," I say, squeezing the grey stress ball in my hand.

Mum walks inside and by the look on her face, she seems like she wants to talk about something. I sit up straight on the bed as my eyes stay glued to her while she takes a seat at the end of the bed. "Did you kiss Rosie at the party?" My eyebrows rise in surprise. How did she find out? I didn't tell anyone. Did Rosie tell her? Why would she do that when she was the one who told me not to mention the kiss to anyone? "Who told you?" I ask.

"The news," she replies, handing me her phone. I look at her screen and find a picture of me and Rosie kissing. An article is written beneath the picture about how the Kensington sweetheart managed to make me change how I view dating. "We... we did kiss, but we agreed on forgetting about it," I tell her.

"Don't you like her? Why would you want to forget about it?" My eyes widen when she says that. I haven't told her anything before. "What? Do you think I don't know?" She laughs.

"She doesn't feel the same way, Mum. I'm just the guy who irritates her." I sigh, squeezing the ball harder.

"Then stop irritating her. Make her see that you have feelings for her!" she

exclaims.

"Cany

you help me out?" I ask helplessly.

"I have never thought that you'd ask me for dating advice." She laughs.

"Only when it comes to Rosie," I mumble, looking down.

"Lucky for you, I love this girl, so I will help you out, but I think y check your phone first," she tells me before leaving.

When I check my phone, I see tons of messages and e-mails. Some are from my friends, happy that I finally managed to find a girl I like. But others are from some famous brands, inquiring about having me and Rosie as their brand am**ors or just being the faces of their new campaigns. What is going on?

Why do people care so much about my love life?

I look through the messages and find one from Rosie. It is a very simple 'We need to talk' text.

I'm certain she wants to talk, but I have no clue what she may want to say to

me.

"Where would you like us to meet?' I quickly send back.

Her reply is rather quick. 'My place seems fine."

I take a deep breath and get up to change my clothes. How am I supposed to face Emily and Julian? I don't want them to think that I'm toying with their daughter.

It doesn't take me long to arrive at her place. When she opens the door for me, it's easy to detect how nervous she is. Neither of us expected that to happen. It was just a kiss that meant a lot to me but was only a mistake to her.

"Do you want something to drink?" she asks me.

"Coffee would be great," I say, following her to the kitchen. "You've seen the news, haven't you?"

"Yes." She nods without looking at me.. And?"

want to know what's going on in her mind.

"I think we should let people know that this is nothing. We can say that we were fooling around and just wanted to know how it would feel like if we kissed," she says, finally turning to look at me. "Why did you kiss me, Silas?" "You... you looked kissable," I answer her question. My answer. ms to startle her for a second. I'm aware of how s**id my answer seems, but what else can. I tell her? Do I tell her that I can't get her out of my mind? Do I tell her that she's all that I think about and the only girl I want?

"It's one thing to prank each other, but it's completely another thing to play with my feelings." Her tone is stern and her words are painful.

"Is that what you think of me? Do you think I'm capable of playing with a girl's heart?" I say. I know I haven't exactly portrayed the best image of me in her mind, but I have never thought that she thinks so low of me like that.

"No! This isn't what I meant!" she exclaims, covering her face with her hands for a moment before brushing them over her blonde hair. "We don't kiss. people because they look kissable, Silas!"

"Then why did you kiss me back?" It's not like she didn't reciprocate. I might have initiated the kiss, but she kissed me back.

"I... It was..." she sputters, looking down. "I don't know. It was the heat of the moment," she mumbles.

"Okay, Rosie." I nod. There's nothing else to say. "How would you like us to deal with what happened?" I ask her. I will do whatever she wants.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

"As I said, we can say that we were fooling around. It's widely known that we're in the same social circle and our parents are close. We can just say that we are. close friends, and we wanted to see how we'd react to kissing each other. That's it." She shrugs. "Fine. I If this is what you want. I can post a story, and you can share it or whatever. If you want to write your own statement, do it," I say, getting up from my place.

"Where

are you going?" She frowns.

"I have somewhere to be," I reply, making my way towards the door.

Maybe Mum is wrong. Maybe I can't have her.

"Silas, are you upset?" I turn to face her before I open the door. I look at her face, taking in her features. She is absolutely stunning in the most effortless way. It is impossible to stay mad at or be upset with her. Not when she looks at me with pure innocence.. "No, I'm not," I tell her. It "Are you... mad at me me?"

re

How can I be mad mad at her?

"I thought you couldn't stand me, Rosie. I chuckle. "Why do you care?"

"I don't know, but... I care," she says. The more I look at her beautiful face, the more distressed I find her.

"Come here." I sigh as I make my way towards her. I take her in my arms and surprisingly, she quickly hugs me back. I'm not sure what's going on in her mind, but I want to calm down the loud thoughts in her head. "This changes nothing, Rosie. I will still annoy the hell out of you, okay?" She laughs in my embrace, and I smile. If this is all I can be to her, then so be it.

Maybe I'm destined to be nothing but a friend to her and I just need to accept my fate.
