Exes, and Current

The way that the world worked was strange. After Emily had kissed Derek and she had run out of the penthouse. She had been certain that she had ruined everything. A moment of weakness where she had let her guard down and just gone with her feelings, instead of logic had taken away the one good thing in her life. 

But somehow instead of destroying everything. The kiss ended up being the final push that the two of them needed to become an official couple.

And Emily's first day as Derek Haven's girlfriend was nothing but blissful. She was pretty sure that it was the honeymoon phase. But even if it was, Emily still could not shake the joy that was just radiating from her in waves.

She was someone's girlfriend and not just any someone. Derek Haven was her boyfriend. 

Emily was not a newbie to the dating scene. She'd had other boyfriends before. But Derek might as well have been her first true boyfriend.
