It had been over a year since that meddling god Eros had stuck his nose into Emma's and Jonah's relationship, or however you wanted to label it. Emma wasn't even sure herself, because they had taken such a long break she didn't know where they stood anymore.

So when Jonah messaged her with an invitation she couldn't help the unsettling feeling in her stomach that told her that whatever it was between them wasn't over.
Emma had made it a point not to dress up like this was a date. She was going to take baby steps back in a good direction, but she wanted to make sure this didn't seem like a date.

When she finally set eyes on him at the gate, she did feel her heart rate increase. It was a combination of nerves and excitement at seeing him again.
