Love Behind the Lens Chapter 92
SebastianSince Adira had picked B we headed down to the docks to where the boat for the dolphin tour was. We still had about an hour before the tour started so we were able to take our time walking and talking. I held her hand and on her other side Charlie walked keeping pace with us, his leash attached to Adira's waist. I asked her how Charlie did on boats and she said he'd be fine, he'd probably just hang his head over the side. She explained that he loved the beach and water in general and had been on several boats, even the back of a jet ski and a surf board."Wait, you surf?" I stopped turned to face her in the middle of the sidewalk. She laughed as my hand tugged her gently and she smiled back at me, squeezing my hand."Barely, I surf barely. I took a few lessons just so Charlie and I can catch some baby waves. It was pretty great. But he is a water baby. He loves being in the ocean, the pool he doesn't care. He's a very strong swimmer too," Adira said as she rubbed C

AdiraThe dolphin watching tour was great. The best part was when one came up to check out Charlie. after the tour we headed over to the aquarium. I told Sebastian I couldn't wait to show him how Charlie was the fish whisperer. When we'd gone to the last aquarium in Houston, the fish, sharks and dolphins loved to come to the glass to check out Charlie who would go nose to nose with them. It always drew a crowd when we went. I had a whole album of Charlie at various aquariums. While we walked to the aquarium I showed Sebastian some of the shots I'd taken of the dolphins we spotted and my new favorite of Charlie and the dolphin. I joked about how I'd eventually need to do a whole gallery show just of Charlie. Before we went in I let Charlie use the bathroom and gave him some water. The aquarium was huge and packed and I was extra glad in that moment that I'd brought Charlie. Thanks to him and Sebastian most people kept their distance. If only they knew they were both giant s

SebastianI was a little surprised when Adira let me take some photos of her. She even posed for them, looking so natural it was hard to believe she was usually on the other side of the lens. It was a perfect day for it, a light breeze tossing her hair around slightly, her cheeks flush from our adventures today. I stood next to her as she snapped a few of the ocean before her stomach grumbled. I laughed, glad that I wasn't the only one feeling hungry."Why don't we grab as snack at one the stands and then we can go check out some casinos before dinner?" I suggested as she put her camera away."That sounds great," she replied and I held my hand out for her. Her small hand fit perfect in mine and it definitely had me thinking about the furture. At some point while we are here I wanted to talk to her about seeing more of each other, maybe even taking it to the next step. We walked out of the aquarium and wondered over to a street stall that was selling hotdogs and pretzels. After

AdiraI quickly shut the bedroom door behind me and took a deep breath. I did not like lying, but I couldn't tell him that I was laughing a messages from Valentine. Though I'd been enjoying my day with Sebastian my thoughts still lingered now and again on Valentine and how things were going for him in Italy. He'd sent me a few messages as he could and I tried my best to respond to them without making Sebastian suspicious. I moved quickly to the bathroom and started the shower before replying to Valentine. Sounds like an adventure with your family, though I am glad your business finally concluded.Me too bella. Though next time I come I'm bring you with.As a buffer?Buffer, barrier, distraction, playmate, all of the above.That's not nice, you're going to throw me to the wolves??Never bella. Never. Well we're getting back to the house so I'm going to loose reception. Don't forget next weekend you're all mine.I jumped in the shower contemplating what he'd have in store for

Sebastian"Hey what's so important that you're calling me now?" I asked my brother as I stepped out of the restaurant. The hostess was leading Adira to our table but I knew that it must be important if he was calling me. He knew where I was this weekend and what I was up to."I'm sorry to interupt your little getaway with the sexy photographer but you've got a problem. I heard from one of the girls at the bar that the girl you were with the last time you came down is now pregnant," he said and I felt my heart skip a beat. There's no way that it could be mine. Is there? I rubbed my palm along my forehead in hopes that the lost memories from that night would magically return so I could deny this."Shit. There's no way. I'm telling you even months later I still don't remember anything between meeting her at the bar and waking up next to her. I don't even think I could have gotten it up," I replied quietly. I began pacing trying to think. This could ruin my life. This could ru

AdiraI could see how sincere he was but I knew that this revelation would still end up having a larger impact on our relationship. For now though, I'd let it be and see where it went."I forgive you. How about we order hmm? I'm sure we're both a little hangry too," I said picking up my menu again even though I'd already decided what to eat while I had been waiting on him.We didn't speak much while we both looked over the menu. When the waiter came back over I ordered a steak and baked potato with red wine and he ordered a surf and turf with beer. Once our drinks were brought out I asked about the Steel Pier that we were supposed to do tomorrow. I asked about the attractions and if he'd gone there before. He seemed to still be tense as he told me about the few times he'd visited the Steel Pier and some of the high lights of it though he said most people came to Atlantic CIty to gamble. Over dinner I was surprised by how much he drank. He'd never had more than 2 drinks when

SebastianMy head was killing me. I could hear Adira calling me and attempted to sit up slowly. I was disoriented and it took a few minutes for me to realize that I was on the sofa in our hotel room. As I began to move slowly trying to work the kinks out from my body as my mind battled the pounding inside my head I realized I was still in last night's clothes and I smelled like I fell in barrel of beer. I cracked open an eye to see Adira standing there holding out a coffee in one hand and a few pills in the other."Here this will help, move slowly," she said softly. "thank you," I said geniunely as I reached out for both. While I downed the pills and the coffee Adira took a seat next to me, Charlie on her other side watching me intently. I swear that dog understood more than he should.She unwrapped a few greasy breakfast sandwhiches and handed me one before placing the other on the table in front of me. Then she pulled out a bowl of fruit and began eating. I appreciated her

AdiraMy heart stopped. I mean being up this high already had it working overtime but then Sebastian sprung this on me. I was too stunned to answer for a minute and he mistook my silence."I mean, I can move in with you instead. Whichever you prefer. I remember you talking about your house outside of the city. Maybe we could do weekends there and during the week stay at my place in the city for work? Either way I would be fine with," he said smiling and squeezing my hand. My heart jolted when the cars began to move again. My brain struggled for a response. I was most definitely NOT ready to move in with him or vice versa, especially after yesterday's events. I mean he seemed fine today, but I was having to watch every move, and it really had me reassessing everything. But I was genuinely afraid to tell him that. That in and of itself spoke volumes to me - ones that I wasn't ready to really look into.But I needed to do something. Repsond somehow."Sebastian, listen. I r

Love Behind the Lens Chapter 127 - Epilogue 2
AdiraI was nervous for tonight. I'd waited til the last possible moment to fly home and had spent every waking moment over the last two days moving photos around and making sure every detail was good to go for this event. Adrian as always had been God sent organizing everything and keeping things moving here while I had been away in Greece for the last 2 and a half months. I almost didn't want to come back it was so majestic there. I had come up with an idea for the next show - which I'd shared with Adrian when I'd gotten back. The show we were doing today had drawn enough attention that we actually sold tickets for Friday, Saturday and Sunday, though I'd only be attending Friday's. My brother had gotten weekend leave to come and see my show and I was excited to have him with me."Do I really have to wear this?" he asked, tugging at his shirt collar and tie. I laughed and walked over to straighten them out before replying "Yes. Even I dress up for my shows. There's going t

Valentine2 months.It's been 2 months since I've seen her, since I've kissed her, since I've heldd her in my arms. 2 months of antagonizing over every little piece of our relationship. I was so angry at first but seeing her face when Stella had been all over me had broken my heart. Something I didn't think possible at the time. I'd still been angry and unsure when my father forced me to read the letter she'd dropped of for me when she left. She left - heading to a completely different contenent. She'd written to explain how Petra had come to be, about her past, about what happened between her and Sebastian. It had taken everything in me to not go to his office and beat the living shit out of him for what he did. Even though I was mad at her, she hadn't deserved that. But now, after two months, I'd had plenty of time to sort through my feelings. And in some ways to sort of see things from her point of view. I was still a little mad and a little hurt, but I understood. I

AdiraI felt lighter driving from Sebastian's office to Gio's. I was glad that I'd had the chance to speak to him. This next conversation would be even easier and even though I would miss our weekly dinners, I had enough months traveling that this was nothing new.I parked in the spot I usually did and spotted Tony waiting on Gio. It was almost lunch time. He saw me and waved before getting out to unlock the elevator that went straight to their offices. I thanked him before Charlie and I hoped in and headed up. I greeted Gio's secretary and she waved me in with a smile. He looked up with a smile as soon as I opened the door and came over to give me a hug. "I am surprised to see you here cara. To what do I owe the pleasure?" he asked as he ushered me to the sofa. "Well, I got a contract I couldn't turn down and the timing couldn't be better. I'm headed to Greece for some time. I think it's just what I need. But I couldn't go without saying good bye to you," I replied smil

AdiraIt was early Monday morning and I was loading my luggage in the truck, checking and double checking everything. I was stuffy and felt my face was still a little puffy from my impromptu crying fest yesterday. I had decided that I needed to go through the pictures of my trip with Valentine and had found more than I realized. They were beautiful and still so painful but it was necessary. Now I could go to my dream place feeling lighter and more free than I had. I was leaving it all here. I had two stops to make before heading to the airport. Two conversations that I needed to have though one wouldn't be necessarily bad. I decided to go see Sebastian first. At some point in the future I would be quietly annoucing that Petra and I were one in the same and he deserved to know the truth of it from me. Giving him the truth and the opportunity to apologize was my way of helping myself move on. Charlie and I headed into the building and were greeted by the usual group of fol

AdiraI was as ready as I was going to be. I was a blend of Petra and the old Adira. This woman staring back at me is the new me. My hair was curled and half up half down, my make up minimal except my eyes which I did to stand out behind my glasses. Charlie stood beside me with his vest and bow tie on looking sharp. My phone beeped, letting me know that Gio was ready outside. "Alright Charlie here's to new experiences," I said grabbing up my purse and phone before heading out."You both look wonderful,"Gio said waiting by the open limo door. I smiled as I locked up and then away we went.Once at the venue Gio made sure that we were announced as Gio and Adira, even adding Charlie in. All eyes were on us as his company was sponsoring and my artwork was one of the pieces being offered up. Charlie was perfect keeping himself between me and the crowd putting me at ease despite the large number of people vying for our attention. What felt like forever but was probably only a few

AdiraWe watched as Valentine stormed out. At this point I think numb is the only way to express how I felt. Gio sighed and ran his hand through his hair. "He always was a hot head. It's the Italian blood. Well, let's not waste the food especially since you haven't eaten today," he said grabbing the food and wine and bringing it to the small coffee table. I watched as he went to the kitchen and returned with some glasses and silverware. I was grateful I was here with Gio right now as I'm not sure how I would handle this on my own. He handed me a container and a fork before pouring us each a glass of wine. I heard the TV come on and glanced over to see that he'd put on NCIS - another one of Charlie's favorite shows. We ate in silence and finished off the wine. At some point I nodded off and only woke when Gio laid me down on the bed in my room. I felt Charlie jump on the bed with me and I was out again.I woke early and laid there in bed with Charlie contemplating my next

Valentine"Valentine, son, wait, listen," Gio said standing and holding his hands out towards him in a calming manner. My brain was still trying to process what I'd just heard. Petra and Adira were the same person? But why? I mean, I was attracted Adira that night in the kitchen, the way that her shirt lifted revealing her cute purple panties and her giggling with Charlie. But why lie about it? Why wait so long after everything before saying something? Hell I'd been feeling guilty as hell about our kiss. But Adira had been dating Sebastian. Was that real? Was he just the cover or was I? When she wasn't with me was she really working or was she with him?I set down the food and the bottle of wine. I couldn't stay here right now.I had come to surprise my father with dinner since we'd missed family dinner on Sunday. Family dinner with Adira. Fuck.I looked around the room taking it all in, my brain still trying to piece it all together. I loved her, I loved Petra or so I

AdiraI ran like the devil straight to my room and locked the door before heading to the bathroom. I didn't care who he thought I was or what reasons he had, what he did was not ok. I felt dirty and angry and sad and guitly all at once as I started the shower. I threw my clothes straight into the trash knowing that I'd never be able to wear them again without thinking of this moment. I shot a quick text to my team apologizing, but asking if they can pack up the set and my cameras and just leave them outside my door. I cited an emergency and that I would return to get them. I turned the shower on scalding hot and stepped under it, scrubbing all traces of him off my skin. Once out I booked a return flight for less than two hours knowing that I needed to get home before the panic fully set it. I took one of the pills I carried for emergencies and packed quickly. My cameras and gear were in the hallway ready so I was able to make a quick get away. By the time I got to the air

SebastianHer body felt so familiar against me, her smell and taste one that had been seared into my mind forever. In one hand I held her arms above her head, holding her upright and bowed slightly while I cupped her pussy with the other. I could feel the heat of it through her tight pants and I groaned into her neck. I couldn't wait to slide into that warmth again. I nuzzled the side of her head in the spot I knew she liked before whispering to her "I'm sorry for last weekend. My brother had called to tell me that this fucking woman was going around our home town telling everyone that she was having my baby. I didn't remember sleeping with her, only waking up next to her naked. Even months later I couldn't remember a thing from that night and I knew something had to be wrong."I ran my teeth along her collar bone and felt her squiming. "You like that huh?" I said before doing it again. She froze and I continued, "Well long story short I went down there and confronted her wit
