Author's Note: First off, I'd like to apologize for taking too long to update :( I wouldn't say I've been too busy doing school work, but since April is my birth-month, I have entirely spent it with my friends and family going on road trips, beaches, and short vacations (well, what we could fit in between my classes anyway), so I did not have enough time to update this chapter fast enough. But, since it's already at the last week of May, figured my non-updating has been too long (plus it's finals week at the uni so... yeah, priorities :))

Oh! And I've heard some of you did not completely read the end of the chapter? Like wattpad somehow cut off the last few pages of the previous update? I really didn't know because I was always reading from my phone and there doesn't seem to be a problem... So I plan to just add the last part that has been cut off by wattpad into this update. :))

Anywayyy, hope you enjoy this one!



20: The A Team (Emma's POV)



"You didn't realize Emma was the girl I was talking about?" Andrew asked Elaine, a smile forming on his lips.

"Well we were strangers then! And when you said about a girl named Emma, you said she had red hair, the Emma I know is, or was, blonde!" Elaine told him.

"Um, feeling left out here guys..." Jeremy intervened.

"Oh, sorry Jeremy," Elaine told him.

"Babe," Andrew started with a whisper. "You've been quiet. Don't tell me you're jealous..."

"I'm not." Contrary to my words, I pouted, for real this time.

Andrew chuckled adoringly and said, "Don't worry, love. The story of when Elaine and I met revolves around you actually."

"Really?" I asked, fighting a blush.

"Really." He confirmed. "Do you want to hear what happened that night?" He asked me.

I nodded.

"Okay so," he raised his voice to be heard enough to interrupt Jeremy and Elaine's conversation. "I'm guessing you're curious as well on how Elaine and I met, Jer?"

Jeremy nodded too.

"Okay, so here goes..."

About two hours later, Elaine obviously feels completely comfortable around us now. We also found out that she's studying at NYU as well which is pretty cool. We've had a few catching up to do but really, most of the time was spent with Elaine and Jeremy trying to get to know each other. And I couldn't be happier.

Both my best friends on a good start of a budding romance. Well, hopefully. Hard to tell since they've known each other for only two hours. Like I said, I would do everything for Elaine and Jeremy to end up together.

This lunch thing became a double-date thing.

And just when my day has been going so great, I got a text from my lawyer.
