Who does Cole go talk to?

Emily Willis

Deciding to try to go talk to my ex, I went to Emily’s tent, that she was sharing with Lucy West. Lucy looked at me sympathetically when I walked up. She kissed my cheek.

“Good luck.” she smiled, and walked towards where her mother was set up.

Emily came out of the tent a few seconds later, and saw me. I waved awkwardly, and Emily’s beautiful eyes were colder than I’d expected.

“Are you OK?” I asked her. She nodded slowly.

“Look. I fully understand why you don’t want to be with me. I’m not here to win back your heart. I just want to be friends.” I said truthfully. Emily considered me.

“Fine. Come help me get some firewood.” Emily said, and I nodded. We walked towards the forest, and I glanced sideways at my ex-girlfriend.

“So. What’s new with you?” I asked Emily.

“Well, not much. I got a job at Victoria’s Secret. Not as a model, before you ask.” Emily anticipated my next question.

“Ah. How’s that going, then?” I asked.

“Fine.” Emily shrugged. We walked in silence for a bit, until we heard loud moans.

“Well, if you’re here, who the hell is having sex in the forest?” Emily teased. I scoffed and nudged her shoulder. Emily bit her lip.

“Shall we investigate?” she asked quietly. I nodded, and Emily and I moved forwards quietly, and we saw the couple who was fucking. Emily gasped, and fell back into my arms. She was fighting back tears, and I looked at who it was. I didn’t recognize the male, but the female was April Torres. Emily was full on crying now, and I awkwardly patted her back, missing the days I could have held her.

“Who is that guy?” I asked quietly.

“That WAS my boyfriend.” Emily scowled.

“I didn’t see him on the list.” I frowned.

“He was added later, so he’s not officially on the list. But he’s sure as hell not sleeping in my tent tonight.” Emily growled.

“Oh, Emily. I’m sorry yet another boyfriend has cheated on you.” I said genuinely. She looked up at me with watery eyes.

“Do you regret it?” Emily whispered.

“Yes. I think about you, and what I should’ve done better every single night.” I said truthfully.

“But you’re dating Cassidy Smoak.” Emily whispered. I nodded.

“But I miss you.” I whispered. Emily gave me a sad smile.

“I won’t be the girl you cheat on your girlfriend with. But if you and Cassidy break up, maybe you could come find me.” Emily smiled, and she pulled me into a hug.

“But don’t you dare go and break it off for me.” Emily ordered.

“Yes, ma’am.” I smiled.
