Unexpected Encounter: A Second Chance at Love

When both of them looked at him, Carl apologized, "I am sorry to disturb you but—" He looked at Emma and waved her phone at her. "You left your phone on the table."

"Honey—" George sighed and gently pinched Emma's cheeks. "Why are you so careless?"

He then approached Carl and took the phone from his hand. "She has this very weird habit of leaving her phone wherever she feels like."

"Thanks for bringing it back man," He patted Carl's shoulder before walking back to Emma.

Emma on the other hand was dying with embarrassment. She was on a date with Carl but not only had she left with another man, he had also witnessed their shameless kiss. She also felt a little bad for him.

She had met Carl a couple of times during family functions as their father's were best friends. There was nothing romantic between them, in fact, they shared a decent friendly relationship but since their parents kept nagging them to go out, they finally agreed for a date.

"Carl, I am sorry for today—"

"It's alright," he smiled. "As long as you are happy, that is what matters."

When George scoffed, Emma glared at him and lightly hit him with her elbow.

"Yes Carl, we are very sorry," he reluctantly apologized.

"It's alright." Awkwardly clearing his throat, Carl excused himself. "I should get going."

After he left, George wrapped his arms around Emma's waist. "So where were we?"

"Nowhere—" She smacked his hand away.

"Hey, what did I do?" He pouted his lips.

"I am still mad at you," she snapped before walking towards the parking lot.

"You didn't seem mad at all a while ago." When she ignored him and kept walking, he sighed and quickly jogged after her. He understood why she was mad at him and he deserved her cold treatment. But he had to find a way to coax her.

"I hope you have a very good reason behind this?" Andrew frowned as he poured a drink for himself. He was all ready to give his wife the massage he had promised when Justin called him. He asked him to come to the club immediately as he had something very important to tell him and Owen.

"Why are you being so cranky?" Justin chuckled. "Did I disturb you and Rachael?"

"Is that even a question?" he scoffed. "Of course you did." Since they were staying in Rachael's parents place, their private times together had already been cut short and the little time they got to spend together was always interrupted by someone else.

Andrew was really considering taking her to some isolated island, away from everyone where they would be able to spend time with each other without any kind of disturbance.

"Alright, I am sorry for disturbing you and your wife," Justin sighed. "I wouldn't have done it if it wasn't important."

"What is it?" Andrew took a sip of his drink.

"Let's wait for Owen." He looked at his watch and frowned, "Why isn't he here yet?"

"You both stay in the same hotel, why didn't you bring him with you?"

"We moved to his new condo a couple of days ago." Pausing for a while, Justin inquired, "Didn't you help him look for one?"

Andrew nodded. "Yes, it's a really good place."

"What about mine? When will it be ready?" Since Andrew had told him he would find a place for him, he had been counting on him. Though the hotel suit was big, it was a little inconvenient for Edward as he always kept running around. The kid clearly needed more space.

"It's being renovated. Wait a little longer, okay?" When Justin nodded, Andrew asked, "Do you want to bring Elsa and Edward over to see the place?"

"That's alright, I want to directly take them to the new place once it's ready."

"Sorry—" Owen apologized as soon as he entered the room. "I got caught up with something."

He then took the drink from Andrew's hand and gulped it down. "Damn, I was so thirsty."

"Did I disturb your private time too?" Justin inquired as he pointed towards his disheveled clothes.

"Yes," Owen nodded. "You disturbed my private nap time."

"Who naps at this time?" Andrew frowned. Though they were very close and had lived together for years, he could never understand Owen's body clock. Unlike him and Justin,he had a very weird sleep pattern. He sometimes slept all day and sometimes didn't sleep at all for days. It was very weird.

"Napping doesn't have any specific time, you can nap whenever you want to," Owen defended himself.

Ignoring him, Andrew looked at Justin. "What did you wanna tell us?"

"Okay—" Justin took a deep breath to calm himself down. He had been anticipating this day for a really long time. He had been preparing for it for years but now when it was about to happen, he felt very nervous.

"Woah—" Owen raised his brows. "What's with the deep breaths? Did you get my sister pregnant?"

Justin: " "

"No, it's too early for that. You both just got back together." Owen answered his own question.

"Will you let him talk?" Andrew looked at Justin. "Why are you being so reluctant? We are all friends here, you can talk to us about anything."

"Except for your sex life." When both of them glared at him, Owen shrugged, "What? Elsa is our sister, it will be very awkward. I mean, I definitely don't wanna know the things he is doing to my sister in the bedroom."

Thinking for a while, Andrew remarked, "You can talk to us about everything but your sex life."

Justin: " "

He was speechless. He had called them over to talk about something serious but they kept making ridiculously weird assumptions.

When he did not say anything, Owen widened his eyes in shock. "Wait—don't tell me you wanna break up with Elsa again."

Andrew pursed his lips and glared at Justin. "Are you really going to—"

"Will you two shut the f*uck up?" Justin frowned.
