We Should Be Lovers

Emmett grinned at Jenny over his shoulder when she moved her hands and looked back at Riley when Jenny spoke and he arched a brow at him. Riley rolled his eyes a little bit. Emmett’s eyes went straight to Jenny though when she walked into view and glanced down at the drink. “I think that maybe all tequila isn’t a terrible idea.” Riley chuckled from behind him and leaned to kiss Jenny’s cheek before he walked off with a snarky comment. 

Emmett smiled over at her when she hopped onto the counter. “I think we can find something sufficiently filled with alcohol but not enough to have you vomiting in half an hour.” He patted her leg lightly before putting his hands back on the bottles where he had a feeling they should have remained because now he was thinking about touching her legs.

He mixed something with tequila that wouldn’t knock her over and handed it over to her. “Take it easy. there’s more booze than it tastes like it has.” His eyes got a little softer while he looked at her. “How ya doin’ Jen?”

Jenny beamed when he kissed her cheek. He was always a gentlemen to her and she ate up every second. It made her feel like a princess or a duchess or some high class woman and not just some woman who checks dogs’s butts for worms. 

“No vomiting tonight,” she nodded, agreeing with him. She didn’t want to be miserable to night although she knew she wouldn’t because her best friends were here, specifically one mixing her drink.

She took the drink and eagerly took a sip smiling at how Emmett knew exactly what she liked. “Thank you Penguin,” Jenny said, overly nodding. She took another sip before setting it down when he asked her how she was.

She shrugged a little, reaching over to grab his hand. She liked holding his hand, especially when they talked. She looked down at their joined hands noticing how tiny hers looked in his. “Better,” she finally said, still staring down at their hands. She finally looked back up at him and smiled almost automatically.

“Thank you for this, it was a nice distraction all day,” Jenny said, squeezing his hand, “but Jules said no sad shit tonight so only happy emotions which is easy as cheesy because you’re here.”

“It’s completely fine, Ri.” Emmett pointed at Riley with a stern expression. They were arguing a little over Emmett’s drink consumption. 

“Really? Fine? Totally fine and totally normal because you have such a wonderful   fucking tolerance and don’t always say the first thing on your mind.” Riley rolled his eyes a little bit and leaned against the counter taking a drink out of the cup he was holding onto. Emmett glared at him a little bit and Riley just gave him the Carnas ‘You know I’m right’ face.

“You can just…shut up, Carnas. No one likes you anyway. Besides there are people everywhere and I mean…she might not show up.” Emmett was making another drink and had his eyes on that until Riley was silent for several beats so he peeked at him out of the corner of his eye. Riley was giving him an expression that said ‘Porter you are full of shit.’

“You know she’ll be here and you guys amidst a million fucking people always somehow manage to end up alone like the sneaky shits you are. I’d love it if you dived head first into her…” Riley trailed off and a wide smile broke over his face like he was in trouble. Emmett turned but then the kitchen went black as hands moved over his eyes.

Emmett probably could have guessed exactly who it was even if she hadn’t done her french accent. He moved his hands from the bottles and put them over her fingers for a second then made a ‘hmm’ noise like he was thinking.

“I’ma guess that you are some french guy with a really ridiculous mustache.” He grinned and he heard Riley snort a little bit. “Or Jenny. I think it’s probably a Jenny.”

Jenny giggled moving her hands off of his eyes. “You guessed right, but you are a very good guesser,” Jenny said with a knowing nod before turning to Riley with a grin.

“Hello Mr. Riles, your Jules is somewhere. I lost her or I let go of her, I’m not sure which happened, she’s kind of tiny,” Jenny said frowning a little turning around and looking back where she came from. It took everything she had not to add that he should go and kiss her because Jules was in love with Riley and Jenny, especially tipsy Jenny wanted her friends to be happy.

Jenny walked around to Emmett’s front and smiled at him, more than happy to see him. He just made everything go away, every bad feeling she had. She grinned even more when she saw he was making a drink. “Since it’s my divorce party, I think I should have a drink and if I make a drink it’s going to be all tequila so I think you or Riley should make it,” Jenny said with a nod. She moved a little and hopped up onto the counter making sure her dress stayed down.

“And Jules is wearing a pretty dress Riley,” Jenny said turning back to Riley with a grin, she couldn’t resist putting that in.

Tipsy was putting Jenny’s current condition lightly. In reality, she’d been sneaking drinks all day since her staff had forced her not to come in today and dealing with the fact that she was 28 and divorced was sitting well with her.

She got of the car, holding onto the door for a second squinting at Emmett’s house. She grinned immediately, feeling ten times better now that she was here. Things were always better around Emmett. She turned back to look at her friend Jules who was getting out of the driver’s door.

“You’ve got some drool Jen,” Julia teased, touching her chin. Jenny waved a hand dismissing Jules but turned back around and checked her chin just in case. Truth be told, Emmett was the easiest on the eyes. By far, the best looking man she’d ever met. But they were friends and that was that. 

Julia walked around to the other side and linked her arm through Jenny’s mostly to make sure the woman could still walk. She was pretty sure Jenny wasn’t drunk, but Jenny tended to be a sneaky drunk until it was too late.

“Now remember we’re celebrating so none of that sad shit,” Julia said patting her friend’s arm. Jenny giggled covering her mouth.

“Sad…shit,” Jenny said before giggling again. Julia rolled her eyes but smiled leading Jenny to the front door where the music was blasting from. She opened the door and Jenny walked right in looking around for their friends.

“I’m going to find Em,” Jenny announced before weaseling out of Julia’s grasp and disappearing into the small crowd. She squeezed through people knowing exactly where her friend was. She made her way to the kitchen where sure enough Emmett was with Riley. Emmett’s back was to her but Riley was facing her and she held a finger to her lips motioning for Riley to keep it quiet.

She walked up behind Emmett and reached up putting her hands over his eyes. “Guess who?” Jenny said making her voice go as deep as possible and adding a French accent on for kicks since Emmett was Cajun.
