《Loved》Chapter 26

When Adrien thought the group was now going to ruin his day, something completely opposite happened.
A girl courageous stepped forward, but she didn't even give a single glance to Adrien, no one from her group did.
"You are Emerson Leone, right? From NYU? " She asked with a big smile.
Adrian's jaw dropped.
Emerson was caught off guard but she smiled and nodded.
"We were at the software coding program 3 months ago. You were really good. Your coding style and techniques were awesome." She said excitedly and Emerson blushed.
"Yes. It was me."
She replied.
Adrien was confused .
Wasn't she studying Law and Management? Since when is coding added in it?
"You were really good, you explained it really well. A pretty face and smart mind. Wow" A boy said and gave her A charming smile.
Adrien narrowed his eyes at the boy but the boy was oblivious to the company.
Emerson chuckled.
"Charming I see. I don't think your girlfriend standing behind you will appreciate it. " Emerson said pointing at the girl behind him who had her eyes narrowed at him.
He laughed and wrapped his arm around her, " She knows the only one I will ever love no matter what is her. And I didn't miss the wedding band on your finger. Don't want to be beaten in pulp by someone." He winked at her.
His girlfriend blushed and Emerson laughed.
The first girl made gagging noise.
"Stop being so lovey dovey. And Ms Emerson, your husband must be lucky. If you weren't married, I would have definitely tried on you" She said and Adrien chocked on his spit.
But no one was paying attention to him.
Emerson blushed , "uh. Thanks for the compliment... I guess"
Another boy spoke," Stop it Leslie, you are making her uncomfortable. Are you perceiving software engineering Miss? " He asked Emerson.
"No, I had a diploma in coding and I am minoring in it." Emerson replied politely.
"Wow, don't want to make you uncomfortable but this idiot Dean is right. Pretty face and smart mind. Damn" He whistled.
Adrien kept glaring at the boys.
"Boys, I can feel this man's glare on you. You are hitting on a married girl in front of her husband." Leslie spoke.
Everyone's attention snapped on Adrien and he cleared his throat awkwardly.
"Isn't he some business man? " Dean's girlfriend spoke.
"Doesn't matter" Leslie spoke and turned her attention towards Emerson and others did the same.

His jaw was now touching the floor.
This was first time someone said he didn't matter.
They talked for a while with Emerson and then finally bid their goodbyes, living the two alone.
"Wow, never felt so loved " He muttered sarcastically and Em heard him.
"They were kids Mr Stone. Teenagers tend to do wierd things." She said amusement lacing her voice.
"Yeah yeah, you should have wore glasses and cap instead of me. Didn't know you had a fan club who would directly say on my face I don't matter.
It was really awkward to see 3 teenagers hit on you." Adrien rambled annoyed and Emerson couldn't contain her laughter.
"You are rambling, really Adrien? " She continued laughing and Adrien noticed it was first time she called him by his first name.
I wouldn't mind if you scream it too.
Adrien shook his dirty thoughts away.
"Come on, a teenage girl was saying she would try you and said it doesn't matter if I am your husband." He grumbled.
"She said it doesn't matter if you are some business man. Or are you jealous that they didn't give you attention like you thought? " She corrected and teased him.
Adrien was surprised seeing her new side.
She was always polite and soft spoken.
But once comfortable, she won't hold back to surprise you.
"Attention my ass" He grumbled but Emerson heard it.
"Don't be like this now, if you take off your cap and shades, I will be long forgotten by you. " She said chuckling softly.
"Jokes aside, what are you? You are studying 3 different courses? How is that possible? " He asked in disbelief.
"Actually 4 , accounting being the last one" She mumbled.
Adrien just stared at her blankly for a good few minutes.
"You are kidding me! " Adrien said in a flat tone.
"It's up to you to believe. " She shrugged and stared at a distance.
"Wow! " Adrien spoke.
Emerson smiled.
"Let's go to lighter rides now, I hope you can handle your stomach." She asked him.
"Yeah! " He replied.
"Cool! " And with that she sprinted towards some other rides.
It was really fun for Adrien and at the time of sunset, Emerson asked him to come on Ferris wheel.
They were seating in comfortable silence.
Adrien felt at peace at the moment.
When they were about to reach at the top, Emerson took out a Polaroid camera.
"Let's take a picture" She said and sat beside him, smiling at the camera and took the pic while he was looking at her and she was smiling at the camera.

The print came out and he noticed it was a beautiful pic.
The sky was painted beautifully with the dusk colours and he was looking at Em with Em smiling at the cam.
"You didn't take any pic before this." He pointed out curiously.
"I always do it at the last moment or at a very special moment to keep a single pic as memory. If I want to go for photography, I go just for taking pics." She said while looking at the sunset.
Adrien didn't comment on it.
In less than 48 hours, he found out that she is too intellectual, has self dignity, loves her self relaxing time, and does everything like she has planned it in her mind how to do it. She captures the most beautiful moment.
He didn't notice the ride came to an end till Em called him to come out.
Suddenly he remembered he still didn't have her number.
"Hey Emerson. It would be better if we exchange numbers" He said.
Emerson was taken aback. Not by his suggestion but he called her name.
She just stared blankly for a few seconds and then nodded.
They exchanged numbers.
She took a pic of the printed pic from ferris wheel and sent it to Adrien.
"It's a lovely pic, you should keep it as a memory" She stated and started walking.
Adrien just smiled softly.
He catched up with her.
"Let's have dinner at a restaurant I know. It has good food." He said.
Emerson nodded.
The drive to the restaurant was comfortably silent.
They both were lost in thoughts and had a peaceful feeling in their chests.
Soon Adrien parked at a fancy restaurant.
He got out with Emerson.
The hostess took them to a far away table.
Adrien noticed how Emerson didn't care when the hostess looked down at her clothes and still thanked her politely.
A waiter came to put water on their table and gave them their menus.
Emerson was deciding what to order when suddenly a handsome looking man in his mid twenties came to her table grinning widely.
"Hello, Sir, Ma'am. I am manager of this restaurant. Is everything up to your service? " He asked.
Adrien thought the manager was asking it because he probably saw who he was.
He just gave a curt nod and Emerson politely smiled.
"Yes, we are yet to order." She said politely.
The manager laughed.
"God Emerson. All the people from college who see me here are just shocked that the delinquent bad boy was even able to graduate let alone be a manger and you don't even remember me? " He asked in disbelief.
Adrien was shocked. It was second time people ignoring him for Em.
"Uh, sorry I didn't recognise you? " She asked politely.
"Remember Liam Carlos. The boy with anger issues who used to beat anyone who even looked at him, the boy who never paid attention in uni, the boy who only you knew how to control and only you were able to tutor and help me pass my classes. If it weren't for you, I would have been in jail or rotting somewhere. But you made me change my life Emmy. You never gave up on me and only because of you, I graduated uni and have a stable job. I can never be thankful enough for your efforts on me. Order anything you want, it's on the house." He said and his voice broke a little.
He cleared his throat and continued,
"You don't know how much you changed my life for good. If you don't like your job anymore, we can start a tutoring centre." He joked and winked at her.
Emerson blushed and Adrien had his jaw hanging on floor second time the same day.
"It wasn't me Liam, you did it on your own. I was just a push to you." She smiled at him.
"Still the modest one, I see. So welcome here and order whatever you like. Your date will be happy he doesn't have to pay" He chuckled nodding towards Adrien.
At last someone noticed me.
Adrien thought.
"He isn't my date" Emerson said shyly.
"Yeah, I am her husband." Adrien added.
Emerson was shocked to see him admit his relationship with her.
"Don't get jealous man, your wife is a gem, and you are the lucky one to have her. Enjoy it, and Emerson, here is my card, if you need goons, I still have connections with gang." He winked and walked off.
Emerson was unfazed but Adrien was wide eyed.
"He was in gang? " He asked her.
"No, he was an underground fighter, a good one" She corrected.
Adrien just looked at her with a shocked face.
