The Accidental Wife (Emily and Julian)

I adjust my tie and make sure that I look extra good for the night. The truth is, I don't really care about this event. I have been to numerous ones like it before, but this one is different. I have Rosie Kensington as my date. It is more than special,

For years, I have had a crush on her ever since I was a senior in high school, but I couldn't do anything about it. I know how she sees me. I'm just the annoying guy she met five years ago because of Holden and Lily. I had just turned fifteen when I met her, and she was tw She made me so nervous, and I didn't know how to act around her, so I just decided to annoy her. I so want to slap my fifteen years old self for making things harder for the adult version of me

I always tease her about the amount of clothes she has in pink, but I actually love pink on her. I don't think any other girl can make pink this beautiful Rosie is one of a kind.

But maybe things can work in my favor since she's going to my university. I know how huge the campus is, but I'm going to make it my casually bump into her as much as possible.

Rosie is so beautiful and if I don't do anything about my dire situation, somebody is going to ask her out in college. I'm sure of that.

I make my way to my car and drive to her house. Luckily, she only lives thirty minutes away from me. I can't wait to see her in her blue dress. She may not know this, but I have ties in different shades of pink to match all the shades of pink I have seen her wear throughout Once I arrive, I knock on her front door. I expect her to open in for me, but Julian opens the door instead.

"Hello there," Julian welcomes me as I walk inside the house. I know I'm ten minutes early, so I don't expect Rosie to be ready.

"It's good to see you, Julian," I'm on a first-name basis with her parents, which gives me hope that she may look at me differently one day. I know that they like me and I'm glad about that, but I want their daughter to like me.

"Rosie told us that you asked her to be her date yesterday," he tells me, and I nod. "I guess I don't need to tell you that I expect you to behave and take care of her."

"Don't worry, I plan on taking good care of her, I assure her dad.

"And no pranks for tonight," he warns me.

"No pranks. I promise," I say. This is my first time to be nervous around Julian, but today is different. His daughter is my date, and this is a first.

I hear the clinks of heels against the floor and when I look at the direction of the sound, I find Rosie in front of me, looking as gorgeous as ever. Her royal blue dress looks like it is made for her. I bet her mum made it for her. Tre on time," she comments, and I smile at her.

"Don't you look beautiful, Emily," I say as I kiss her cheek.

"Thank you, Silas. You look very handsome today. Seems like you cleaned up well for Rosie. She smirks and I chuckle nervously as I look down. "I think I don't need to tell you to take care of her, because I have a feeling somebody has already told you thatTM "Yes, Julian has given me this talk." I mod.

"Shall we go? Let's not make things awkward. This is a one-time thing anyway," Rosie says as she walks towards me. But I don't plan on making this a one-time thing at all,

I want to take her on numerous dates and show her how I can treat her right. 1 want her to take me to her favorite places and introduce me to her world. I'm done being the jerk in her eyes. I don't want that anymore. She doesn't know what she means to me and it's entirely

"Don't be too nice. I don't want to get used to this version of you," she jokes as she plays a song I don't recognize.

But I want you to get used to this version of me, I think to myself.

"Sounds like a plan," she says,

Soon, we arrive at the venue where the event is held. The valet opens the door for Rosie, and I walk towards her. There are so many photographers, but we have both grown up in the spotlight, so they don't bother us anymore.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

She links her arm with me, and we both walk inside. It is the annual event to celebrate the successes that the company has achieved throughout the year. This year, we have added a new streaming website and app to our projects. My family owns one of the biggest produ "Do you plan on fangirling when you see your favorite actor?" I smirk as I look at her.

"Have I ever fangirled loudly?" she says as she turns to look at me with her ocean-blue eyes. I'm in love with them.

"You fangirl internally. I gotta give you that," I say,

"See! And aren't we supposed to act all civil tonight and refrain from teasing one another?" she reminds me.

"You got me. Sorry," I say, smiling. "But seriously, if there's anybody you want to say

y hi to or take a picture with, just tell me."

"What I want right now is something to drink because I'm really thirsty," she says, and I nod.

"Version mojito?" I ask to make sure.

"You know me so well" She grins.

"I'll be right back." I walk to the bar and get the two of us the same drink. I want to know more about her like knowing her favorite drink, her favorite actor, and her favorite color. I want to learn everything about Rosie Kensington. I thank the bartender when he hands me the drinks and head back to my date.

When I spot her, I frown because she isn't alone. A guy is talking to her. I know him. Ezra Maine. A wannabe heartthrob.
