[Emma] Let Me Love Again

[JORDAN ANNETTE BAKER]

Each Kiss felt better then the first, and Emma seemed to be getting prettier day by day. Jordan was supposed to be serving her a meal but she had found herself tangled up in another cuddle session on the couch. She knew that Emma wouldn't mind, although the two of them had been getting a little hungry. The day Emma was released from the hospital Jordan took her back to make sure that her recovery would be speedy. It had been a couple of days now and Jordan was sure she was slightly annoying Emma with her cautious nature. "I know that you hate the fact that I am so strict with you, but I am sure you will love me once you are one hundred percent again." she said with a smirk before kissing her lips again. "I need to bring out dinner before it get cold... although I am sure you could warm it up in and instant. You seem to do that to me constantly...Miss Hottie." winking she stood up.

It had become a slight inside joke of theirs. They had been trying to out do the other with some of the corniest pick up lines they cold. Jordan had been getting pretty creative and she knew that by the end of this she probably would come up out on top. Walking back in the room with some of the pasta she had just made she set two cokes down on the coffee table along with the plates of pasta. "I hope you like it because if you don't I'm just going to keep cooking this anyway." she said with a gentle laugh.

With every kiss Emma felt like she was in Wonderland. The were amazing and Emma loved Jordan so much. Right now they were cuddling on the couch again, just like they had been doing most of the time since Emma had been released. Not that she was complaining; she loved it! "I know that you hate the fact that I am so strict with you, but I am sure you will love me once you are one hundred percent again." Emma gently stroked her girlfriend's cheek, "I will always love you." A smile crossed her lips as Jordan continued to talk, "I need to bring out dinner before it get cold... although I am sure you could warm it up in and instant. You seem to do that to me constantly...Miss Hottie." The smile turns into a smirk as Jordan exits the room, only to come back a few minutes later with a gorgeous pasta meal.

I hope you like it because if you don't I'm just going to keep cooking this anyway." Emma wouldn't hold back with saying what she thought about things, being honest was just part of who she was. Her eyes fix on Jordan and she smiles again as she puts her hand on her girlfriend's leg, rubbing it gently. "I love you so much. I mean that." She gently kissed Jordan's cheek and laughed slightly before taking a mouthful of the pasta and eating it, taking her time to make sure that it was perfect. "Wonderful babe. I could eat this all the time!" Her eyes glance over at Jordan again and she smirks, her dirty side coming out a little, "you must be a shower because you're making me wet." With a wink she began to eat more.

Jordan cracked a smile as she looked up at Emma after taking a fork full of noodles. "Wow you are even more corny then I am. Never thought that could happen." It really was entertaining watching the two of them, they always were trying to make the other laugh and it always worked. "How on earth did I run into such a gorgeous girl? I must be really lucky to have beaten everyone else to you." She had to admit that she was enjoying that moment and the dinner that she had fixed for the two of them. The passion that Emma gave Jordan was amazing. Jordan to that day swore she had become a better cook because of Emma. It seemed like everything just fell into place when she was around.

"I have dessert too. Be ready because this is going to change the way you view chocolate cake." Jordan's face lit up once more as her eyes met Emma's. She really was falling head over heels in love with her. "Maybe after our meal you and I can do a night's jog and shift. I think with a little dessert wine in our system this might turn into a rather fun evening with you."

"Wow you are even more corny then I am. Never thought that could happen." Emma smirked, feeling proud of herself as she ate more of the pasta. After how her life had been she had believed that happiness and luck would never come to her, that she would never settle down and just be a stripper in a nightclub until she was too old to do anything. Of course that wasn't her job but it was how she thought it would be. Then fate made her meet this amazing lady and even though their meeting had hurt so much and she had wanted to rip Jordan apart when she was trying to help, they had settled down and were happy... If you forgot the attempted suicide of course... "How on earth did I run into such a gorgeous girl? I must be really lucky to have beaten everyone else to you." She put a bit of pasta in her girlfriend's mouth to shut her up a little, enjoying the moment. "Destiny had this planned all along. I got a complete stunner and you got the sexiest babe ever." A smirk crossed her lips before she went back to eating a little more.

"I have dessert too. Be ready because this is going to change the way you view chocolate cake." Her eyes met with Jordan's and she had to do everything possible to stop herself from kissing her and just taking her then and there. The passion she had was intense and the more she was with Jordan, the more that she loved her and wanted her. Jordan had taken her heart on the night she had ran into those bins and got cut by glass. Her girlfriend was her savior in so many ways. "Maybe after our meal you and I can do a night's jog and shift. I think with a little dessert wine in our system this might turn into a rather fun evening with you." Emma nodded and finished off her pasta, putting her knife and fork in the center of the plate as usual to show that she was done. "Sounds like a plan babe but you know it'll turn into a race and i'll woop your ass." A laugh escaped her before she bit her bottom lip and stared at her girlfriend.

[JORDAN ANNETTE BAKER]

"How can you be so sure that your going to woop my sexy ass?" she smirked getting up and collecting the empty plates. She really did enjoy teasing Emma and to be rather honest she liked the competition of it all. The idea that the two would be racing eachother soon was exciting to her and she was sure that it would eventually lead to others things. Jordan placed the dishes in the sink before cutting two slices of her chocolate cake and bringing it back out to the living room. "I took some creative liberty and made things my own. I hope you don't mind. I'm sure either way its going to taste fine. I like mixing and matching things from various recipes. I always think my way of doing things is better." Silently Jordan began to plan what animal she was going to shift into for the race.

The more focus she had on the subject that faster the shift would take place. She needed a clear picture of that animal too. Jordan wanted to be creative on how she approached this. When it came to shifter races it was all about strategy."What does the winner and loser of this race get? I want to know what I am up against. I'm sure your little wheels are turning and you have already thought of what kind of silly thing the losing is going to be subjected too." she said with a light laugh as her eye lit up after sliding another fork full of cake into her mouth.

"How can you be so sure that your going to woop my sexy ass?" Emma smirked a little as she watched Jordan collect the plates. Their little teasing sessions were always fun and the fact they would no doubt be racing soon was appealing to her. It wasn't very often that she had been comfortable enough to enjoy another person's company but Jordan seemed to be pulling her out of her shell more and it was like she was gaining more confidence now that Jordan was in her life. "Sexy ass or not, i'll still beat you. I can feel it in my bones." Of course she had to shout the words because Jordan was in the kitchen but the point would get across. It wasn't even that long before her girlfriend was bringing the cake to her and giving her a speech on how the cake came to be in this world, "I took some creative liberty and made things my own. I hope you don't mind. I'm sure either way its going to taste fine. I like mixing and matching things from various recipes. I always think my way of doing things is better." Emma just smiled and stared at her, enjoying the sound of Jordan's voice.

Emma knew what animal she would turn into; her wolf form. It was the one she had the most control over and it was symbolic to her relationship with Jordan, in a way. Their eyes had met for the first time whilst Emma had been in her wolf form. It was what she would remember the most. "What does the winner and loser of this race get? I want to know what I am up against. I'm sure your little wheels are turning and you have already thought of what kind of silly thing the loser is going to be subjected too." For once, Emma didn't really have it planned out that far but she knew what she wanted, "the loser must be the winner's slave for a day and the winner gets whatever they want." Another smirk crossed her lips, she knew exactly what she was going to ask for first if she was to win. It wasn't hard to guess what it was.

Her eyes stayed fixed on Jordan and she smiled a little, her cheeks going a light shade of crimson as she blushed, one of her hands taking hold of one of Jordan's before she leaned in close and kissed her girlfriend on the lips. Life with Jordan was the best thing that could have happened and she was thankful to have such an amazing woman in her life. Emma's tongue ran across Jordan's lips, licking off a bit of chocolate, before she pulled back and winked. "It's always fun to tease you in any way possible."

[JORDAN ANNETTE BAKER]

"the loser must be the winner's slave for a day and the winner gets whatever they want...It's always fun to tease you in any way possible." Jordan smirked. "Sounds like a fair game. I'm looking forward to bossing you around. It's going to be a busy day of pointless tasks and total enjoyment." she winked as she finished her cake. Looking and Emma she smiled and found her nose wrinkling slightly. It was amazing how happy Emma could still manage to make Jordan feel. She felt like such a sap because of how giddy she would get around Emma. "So are you ready to race speedy?" she pushed Emma gently with a slight laugh. Jordan took a hold of Emma's hands and dragged her to the back door that over looked the woods surrounding her house. she wasn't sure were they were racing too but she figured they could just play things by ear.

It wasn't long before Jordan was pulling off her clothes before she shifted into Greyhound. "Try to keep up." her voice chimed before she took off. Jordan wasn't sure where she was running too but she was knew before long Emma would be catching up to her.

"Sounds like a fair game. I'm looking forward to bossing you around. It's going to be a busy day of pointless tasks and total enjoyment." Emma smirked a little as she finished her cake, thinking about the perfect way to beat her girlfriend in the race. Having a girlfriend seemed like such a weird thing to her, she had never been lucky enough to meet the right person but Jordan was special and Emma loved her very much. Jordan was the woman for Emma, her soulmate and one true love. She would never let go off that. "So are you ready to race speedy?" That was new, the first time that had been said. It was also new that she was being dragged to the back door, rather than being the person doing the dragging. Her eyes scanned the woods before she looked at Jordan.

There she was, taking off her clothes and shifting almost instantly. Emma couldn't help but smirk and stare at the sight, too caught up in the moment to even realise that Jordan had communicated with her and then dashed off away. A moment later and Emma looked around and noticed her mistake. That wouldn't do at all. Jordan had played a dirty trick on her and now the game was on. With a smirk she began to run and as she jumped over a fallen tree she shifted into her wolf form and bounded after her girlfriend, practically catching up to her within moments. The wolf leapt over the greyhound and gave a cheeky look before continuing running ahead. Winner had to get through to the other side the quickest.

[JORDAN ANNETTE BAKER]

Like she had thought, Emma had managed to catch up to her and give a cheeky look before darting off. Playfully Jordan managed a slight growl before her speed picked up and she was kicking the dead leaves and dirt up from the ground with her paws. She leaped over dead branch, logs, rocks and even a small creek as she narrowed her eyes on Emma. Your not going to win this that easily Jordan thought before barking and leaping over the wolf. She ran in and out of the trees and did her best to keep ahead of Emma.

As Jordan speed ahead she couldn't help but feel excited for the time she was spending with Emma. It really was something else to be racing through the forest as an animal and racing her soul mate. Things just seemed so natural and everything fit together in that moment. There really was nothing else like it. Jordan looked back and gave a smile as she wagged her tail before picking up her speed some more. She wanted to leave Emma behind in the dust because she knew it would be fun to tease her about her loss.

[EMMA JOANNE MARX]

Emma picked up on Jordan's little growl but continued to run in a straight line, bounding towards the goal of the finish line. Heading towards winning and the chance to mock Jordan for being the loser. There were loads of noises surrounding her, most coming from the female shifter behind her, the love of her life and soulmate. A small leap over a creek and she was off again for a split second. Her feet came to a halt as the smaller animal jumped over her and once again took the lead, speading ahead of Emma and bringing back the excitement of the race. Emma really wanted to win and she had to up her game a bit in order to gain the lead again.

The wolf leapt from tree to tree, bounding off them as she tried to get in front of her girlfriend. It wasn't working. It was a fun experience that they were having but if she could just get ahead then it would be amazing. She could win the race and have Jordan as her personal slave for the day. It would be amazing... Then her feet missed the next tree and her body crashed into it before dropping to the floor, her eyes closed as she whimpered and tried to get to her feet but it wouldn't work. Her body was hurting and she wanted her soulmate by her side to help her again like the night they had met but at the same time she knew that she had no hope of winning the race and she wanted Jordan to win it instead. Her body shifted back to it's human form as she rested on the floor of the forest, leaves covering her body.

[JORDAN ANNETTE BAKER]

As Jordan raced ahead she smirked. She could tell that she was winning and it was slightly frustrating to Emma who was still behind her. Kicking up more dead leaves and mud she jumped over a few rocks that blocked her path before sliding down a hill and pushing off from the bottom with her back paws. She could see the end of the woods the led to one of the main roads and she wagged her tail as she picked up her speed. It looked like she was going to win. Jordan couldn't wait to rub it into Emma's face. She would have her victory celebration in the most obnoxious way possible. That is when it hit her that she couldn't hear Emma's paws against the dirt anymore. Turning her head she sniffed the air and let out a slight whimper. Something was wrong and she didn't have to think twice before she went darting back off in the opposite direction.

On her way back towards Emma she found her spare clothes that she hid in a bag a the foot of a tree and grabbed two sweats and shirts. Jordan never knew what to expect and she always tried to prepare herself from random shifts as well as times when she would have to shift back into her human form. Bolting back towards Emma she gave a whimper as she shifted back, changed and helped Emma up changing her as well. "Em, are you ok? I'm so sorry." she cried.
