Behind the scenes SHE
As if on cue, Abed waltzed into the room, immediately, I get to my feet, my heart doing a somersault, worrying that he may have heard our conversation. My thoughts are immediately cut short when he reached his right hand behind my head, dips his own head and brings his lips to mine in the most tantalizing kiss. He slings his hand around my waist, a good move since my knees grow weak at the end of the kiss. A dazzling smile lines his perfect mouth.“That easily solves everything.” he sighs, resting his head against mine.My heart was jack hammering against rib cage, certainly the entire world can hear it, if they couldn’t, then at the very least Abed would. My body was frozen, panic flooding my system, I wasn’t sure how I was supposed to keep my limbs anymore, anything I did right now felt like he would catch on and realize I had feelings for him. “Say, Ab dearest, do you consider this normal Dom behavior?” Joanne jumps in, already working our plan.I watch as his head turns to fa

Later when Abed and I are in the living room, tucked into his side, his arms slung around me, an afghan covering our legs, and the bowl of salted popcorn still warm from when he made it earlier, on our legs our eyes on the screen in front of us. We had gone back and forth a bit, about choosing what we wanted to watch, he wanted something with me in it, and I wanted something he directed, finally we compromised and started a series that had nothing to do with either of us. “I think, but he has neither confirmed or denied this. Find out for me will ya?” Clay’s words from earlier circles back to mind, like it did when he came out of the Den announcing the meeting was over. Joanne gave me conspicuous nod just as she slipped out of the house, I still have no idea what that nod meant. He had made dinner, put me in the apron again and the only thing I did was pass him the ingredients, yet he made it sound like I made the food. How could someone be this perfect? “You know, before this... b

I felt sick, sick to my stomach, muttering a silly excuse about checking on work with crew members, there is no single mistrust on her beautiful face as she nods at me, her eyes sparkling with something I can’t place a finger on. Hurrying out of there, without so much as a single glance backward, i knew if stayed there for a second longer, staring into those beautiful eyes, I would have confessed everything.I had you sign a marriage certificate, the ring on your finger as well? Not a collar, just because I had to show my father... I groan. Running my fingers through my hair. When I came up with this plan of a fake marriage, it wasn’t with any woman in mind, I just thought I had to pay someone to act like it, but as soon as Rachel appeared in my life, every other woman would not compare, she was the only one that sneaky old man would never get to. So, so why was I feeling so rotten from inside and out? Why do I feel so horrible for lying to her? I must taken a long time in the ba

The next morning, Abed informs me that today is the day we leave for his father’s house, very short notice, but I don’t tell him that, he already looked like he was dealing with a lot, just by the thought of living with his father again.“How long?” I had asked, still under the sheets, he was standing by the bed, already in fresh clothes, his spine straighter than arrow today. Clearly, he was tensed. “He said a few days, no given deadline, but I promise the moment you feel unsafe, threatened by anything, we will leave.” I gave him a muted smile, I was not going to give his father any ammunition, I was not going to leave until he had gotten what he wanted. Yesterday, I felt his pain, today I wanted to heal it. He made us breakfast, a large one, I know what it meant, he wasn’t going to be making breakfast in his father’s house, I was fine with ordering in, in fact, I had the numbers of all the good places, it was going to be my treat. The small talk I tried to make about taking a bi

My tongue stuck to the roof of my mouth, my throat drying from her words, images of his security play in my head, of course he was dangerous, nobody needed that much security, no matter how famous they were, unless they were constantly doing something wrong. And dangerous.“Dangerous?” I croak,“Yes silly, you might end up thinking you have to impress him or something since he could be your father in law.” I snort in derision, if he was like a normal father to Abed, if he were kinder, the absurd idea of him being my father in law... I felt my cheeks flame just thinking about him being a daughter in law, and therefore his wife. Shaking my head and those thoughts away, I focus on the present,“You say that knowing who his father is?”Something passes her face, it’s too quick for me to catch, her expression is now one of exasperation. “Do you really need to go?”She is definitely trying to dissuade me right now, without any proper explanation, I stare at her for a few seconds, tryin

I had never seen anything quite like it, Abed’s silent fury, after the woman in the uniform, who I later learned her name was Greta, explained to him that his brother was going to stay for the exact number of days as he was, and from the explanation. I gathered his brother whom I had no idea about, had called ahead and asked that Abed’s old room be given to him. Abed had turned around, Greta and I hold our breaths as he walked back to the room assigned to us, his spine was as straight as an arrow. The anger rolled off him in waves, from his extremely straight posture, to his jaw locked in place, and the eyes, his eyes drew you in, and tossed you around inside of the storm that raged inside. I was at complete loss, I knew nothing of this brother, and while this room was significantly smaller than his old room, it wasn’t so bad, we won’t be staying for so long. But the fact that he called ahead and asked specifically for Abed’s room meant they were on opposing sides, and he was an ass

When I return to the room, he is no longer pacing, he is sitting at the desk, his eyes full of relief as he beacons me to him. Hurriedly, my feet move in his direction, and he pulls me into his legs, plopping down, his face sinks between my neck and my face, my body shivers as our bodies touch. “I missed you, where did you go?” he murmurs,I swallow, unsure how to say that I went snooping around without coming off as creepy.“Out.” I say when the silence stretched on for far too long.He sighs, “I have heard people describe the property as beautiful, but all I see here is pain, Idon’t think I can ever see it as more.”The urge to take this man as far away from this place is overwhelming, I wanted to protecthim, from the horrors of his childhood, from the horror that was his younger brother. SinceGreta told me what his brother had tried to do, I had become even more afraid for him, what was it like living with a monster and his son? “You never told me you had a brother..” I start

My eyes follow her even as she excused herself from the table, clearly flustered, I want to go after her, but the look on Richard’s face stops me. “You know her?”His shocked expression gives way to the smug one he has always worn when he thought he had the upper hand on something.“We go way back, college days, and these days everyone knows Rachel Greene, until recently.”His words pulls something from my memory, he is the fairy godmother she talked about with such fondness?? He was kind to her, got her a lawyer, and did all of those good things that made my insides tingle with unknown emotion? I couldn’t reconcile the person I knew with the person she knew. “We also had a pact that if she wasn’t married by age thirty, we would get married.” he eyes my fingers, searching for a ring, I flexed my fingers showing off the matching ring I had put off wearing until this particular dinner, and had been hiding from her. My father chuckled, finding it amusing that we were once again in com
