Emily sat on the floor of her poorly lit room, tears streaming down her already redish eyes. Her mind wandered off to way back, just about six months ago. Jason was good to her, she learned somethings by merely observing him while he worked and reading his fashion books. She remembered all the times Jason was her best friend and confidant, but now, he was a monster she couldn't recognise. She shut her eyes hard and she immediately remembered the faithful evening when everything turned in a nightmare and progressed into the hell she was living in.
It was a cool and lovely friday night, as usual, Emily was in Jason's room. On that day, they weren't learning new patterns or drawing new designs, rather they were both about to just enjoy the evening and relax. Emily relaxed on the cushy sofa while she watched a movie while Jason got two wine glasses and set them in front of Emily. Emily turned and looked at him in suprise.
"Is there anything or party going on that I might not be aware of?" Emily asked sweetly.
"Oh no Emily, just relax. I just wanted us to relax a bit, after all, all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy" Jason answered as he wore a bright smile on his face. He stood up again and when he got back, he was with a bottle of wine, he sat down on the sofa and in no time, he had popped the wine. Emily couldn't help but watch him, Jason began to pour the wine into the glasses in front of him and Emily.
"Wow thanks" Emily said as she picked up the wine glass which now had wine inside it. Jason smiled at her again, picking up his own glass.
"Cheers" he said. Emily smiled sweetly,
"Cheers to what?" She asked, immediately their eyes met. For some reasons, Emily saw burning passion through Jason's blue eyes, her heart began to pound loudly in her chest, her breathing increased rapidly as she still locked eyes with him.
"Cheers to a new beginning, especially for us" Jason said softly, breaking the trance between him and Emily. Emily began to blink uncontrollably, she was short of words.
"Yes, cheers to that" she managed to say and the two of them clicked their glasses. It was a beautiful night, the wine tasted good, the two of them began to watch a movie and they both told each other jokes. Everything was going fine and before Emily could realise what was going on, she had already taken five glasses of wine, her words began to slur and she became lazer focused on the movie in front of her, Jason moved closer to her and watched the movie keenly with her. A scene came up and Emily laughed, just as she turned her head to see Jason's reaction, she noticed he was staring at her, though she was slightly intoxicated, she felt her heart beginning to pound rapidly once again. The Passion in his eyes was more intense that the last, he drew closer to Emily, his face directly positioned towards her.
"You are beautiful Emily, you really are" Jason said, Emily watched his lips as the words came out of his mouth. She felt jolts run through her body, goosebumps filled her skin from head to toe, finally he had noticed her, or so she thought.
"Thank you" she whispered softly, her words still sluring. Jason moved closer, pressed his face against her's and kissed her lips. Emily immediately swung her arms around his neck as they both kissed passionately, she liked the way it felt, his lips on her's. Soon, Jason's palm made it's way onto Emily's thigh, lifting her skirt and touching the bare flesh on her thigh, Emily purred softly.
"I want you Emily, more than anything" Jason whispered. Emily lifted her face and stared directly at his, passion already consuming her body and clouding her thoughts, along with the alcohol.
"I want you too Jason" she managed to mutter with a slight nod. Jason immediately dragged her close to himself and continued to kiss her. The night was a long but intense one, Emily's judgement was clouded with the wine and ecstacy of the moment, she didn't realise when she let her guard down and immersed herself into the arms of the man she had feelings for, she didn't realise she and Jason Reghan had made love that night.
Emily opened her eyes in horror, she felt she was having a bad dream, but when she looked around her, she realised that it wasn't even a bad dream but instead it was a crazy reality. Emily immediately jumped up from the bed, covering her body with the duvet, her eyes widened in horror as she looked round the room. Her clothes were littered around, same with Jason's who was still sleeping soundly.
"No no no. This can't be happening" Emily muttered as she shook her head. Just as she was trying to deny everything that took place, the memories began to slowly come back, she remembered how it all happened and why they were both unclad. Embarrassment began to creep in, she knew she had made a crazy mistake and now, she couldn't face it. She slowly creeped out of the bed and began to gather her clothes and undies, Jason still slept peacefully without a care in the world. Emily sighed, she put on her clothes as quickly and as silently as she could and immediately ran out of the room. Since that day, Jason began to treat her like a stranger, he stopped her from visiting and he even stopped teaching her. He became as cold as ice as he was as warm as a cup of coffee on a cold day. Emily diligently kept her distance, after all, she was embarrassed by the situation but she couldn't do that for long, she had found out that she was pregnant about two months later, a scary reminder an accident that had occurred. Emily shook her head as tears fell from her eyes.
