I was enjoying my night, even with Lauren glaring at me. I was ignoring the bitch. I just wish I knew she would be here. Jake and she seemed to be getting on well tonight. Maybe things aren’t as bad he makes out. I don’t know, but it has nothing to do with me. I am just his bit on the side. But tonight I was having fun of my own. Jake and I haven’t even managed to talk to each other since early when I arrived.

JakeI wasn’t in the best mood this morning. I was sulking because I hated knowing that Becca was mad at me. I know I had no one to blame but myself. I acted like an idiot last night. Yes, she said she would text me this morning, but I have not heard anything from her thus far.

Rebecca “Jake, stop,” I squealed and giggled.“No, not until you take it back,” He said.We were laying on my sofa. Jake currently had me pinned beneath him, tickling me. Why? Because we were talking about movies, and I kept telling him his movie taste was terrible. It wasn’t that bad. I just wanted to annoy him.“Nope! I refuse to take it back,” I laughed.“Then I will not stop,” He said.He got back to tickling me. I started squealing and squirming again. I couldn’t take it anymore. My body hurt from laughing too much.“Fine, you win,” I said, “Your movie taste is awesome,” I added, laughing.Jake laughed loudly and sat up on my stomach. He flashed his dorkiest smile at me.“That wasn&rsq
Our little secret (Friends to lovers) Chapter Twenty Eight - I don't know what to do...
Jake I was confused as I made my way back home. What the hell just happened? Becca got on at me for being jealous, but the way she just acted seemed like she was the jealous one. Becca does not act like that when I need to leave. It makes me ask some questions. Has this become more than sex now? Or is it because we are connecting so well sexually emotions are running high, but the feelings are only sexual? I don’t know anymore. I will need to try and talk to her later if I can.I got lost in my head on the journey home. I pulled into the driveway, no sign of Lauren’s car, which means she isn’t home yet, which is good. I told her I wasn’t going anywhere today, so I would need an excuse if she were home. I parked the car and headed inside.I went straight for the shower, having a quick one to get the smell of sex, and Becca’s scent off me and pulled some joggers and a tee on
Our little secret (Friends to lovers) Chapter Twenty Nine - Getting it off my chest...
Rebecca I have been avoiding Jake for a few days. I cancelled our plans to meet on Monday. I needed a little space from him. I had been busying myself with other things. He had tried calling and texting, but I haven’t replied, not as much as I usually do. I need time to work things out in my head. I was having a girls day with Paula and Sam. Our day included breakfast, shopping and afternoon cocktails. It is what I needed right now.I headed to meet them at the café for breakfast, my phone going as I did. I looked at the screen, seeing it was Jake. I sighed, staring at it as it rang. I let it ring out, but then he called my back. I answered this time.“Hello,” I whisper.“Do you want to tell me what is going on, Becca?” He spoke.“Nothing,” I said.“Becca, come on, it is me, please don&

Jake I was enjoying my lunch and a beer with James and Barry. I needed it after the last few days. I was worried about Becca and the way she is acting. She said she needs a few days, and I will give her those. I just hope she doesn’t want to end things. I would understand if she did, though.“How are things at home?” James asked.“Confusing, to be honest,” I said, “Lauren is being nice. She wants to spend time with me,” I added.“I know things haven’t been easy for you recently, so is that not a good thing?” Barry asked.“I don’t know,” I said, “I am waiting for her to turn again,” I added.“Maybe she has realised what she has been doing,” James said.“Maybe, but can we talk about something else, please?” I
Our little secret (Friends to lovers) Chapter Thirty One - I think I am in trouble!
RebeccaI was waiting for Jake to pick me up. He should be on his way over. He didn’t tell me where we were going, but only we will be away for most of the day. Why he had to choose this time, I don’t know. It was only seven a.m. God knows what excuse he has used to tell Lauren, especially if he said we would be away most of the day.I was feeling anxious as I waited for him. I know we would get back to our conversation we sort of had last night. I wish he would just leave it. Some things are better off left unsaid. I just wanted to enjoy today and forget about everything else.My phone went, a text coming through. He said he would text me when he was outside, rather than coming up. I made sure it was Jake before grabbing my bag and headed out. Jake was standing against his car, waiting for me.“Good morning, gorgeous,” He said brightly.
Our little secret (Friends to lovers) Chapter Thirty Two - I need a plan...
Jake Becca and I were still at the same spot. We hadn’t really moved much. We went a short walk and then came back. We had been here for three hours and not saw one single person. It was perfection.I was resting against the tree, and Becca was laying down with her head resting on my lap. I reached down, pressing a soft kiss to her lips. I feel her lips grow into a smile when I do. I miss her lips on mine when I don’t see her. There was something about them that felt right. I pulled away after a moment.“What are your plans for the rest of the week?” She asked.“Um, I am going away for the weekend,” I said.I can’t remember if I already told her or not.“With Lauren?” She asked, and I nodded.I couldn’t read her face when I told her that. It was blank. Becca ga
Our little secret (Friends to lovers) Chapter Thirty Three - The right thing to do...
Rebecca I was exhausted, mentally exhausted. I barely slept last night because I had too much on my mind. My day with Jake yesterday was incredible, but it also made me realise something. I was falling for him, hard, and that was not the plan! That was never meant to happen. And knowing he is going away with her for this entire weekend coming was pissing me off. I couldn’t get the thought of those two out of my head. And the idea of it hurt like hell. I have no right getting mad because they were going away together. Jake was her boyfriend, not mine, and he will never be mine. If he wanted to leave her, he would have, a long time ago, if things were that bad.I knew what I had to do. I knew what was best for everyone, best for my heart. I had to end things before I fall any harder for him. I have no right doing what I am doing, getting in the way of those two. All I am to Jake was someone to talk to, a friend who he

*** Three years later *** Rebecca I got woken up with someone bouncing on the bed, a sweet giggle filling the room. “Mummy, wake up,” Everly shouts. I couldn’t believe that she was two already. I don’t know where the time has gone. “Mummy is sleeping,” I laugh. “Everly, I told you not to bother your mummy,” I hear Jake chuckle. I turn around to face Everly, and she stops jumping and comes to lay down next to me. I checked the time. It was close to nine a.m. Everly usually wakes up about six a.m., so I am assuming this morning she decided it was her daddy she was wakening up, rather than me. “It is alright,” I said, smiling up at Jake. He comes over, laying at the other side of Everly. I loved our time as a family in the morning. All snuggled up in mine and Jake’

Jake I was standing, waiting for Becca. I had my two best men next to me, and my mum was sitting in the front row crying, along with Becca’s mum. I could see my father rolling his eyes and trying not to laugh. I wouldn’t expect anything else from either of them. I was nervous, but too much, probably because we were already married. Though my heart was still pounding and my palms still sweating. I hear the music begin, turning my attention to where my gorgeous wife would be soon enough. The bridesmaids came down first, soon joining my best men and me. And then there she was her dad next to her. She looked absolutely stunning in her wedding dress. It was enough to bring a tear to my eye. “Wow!” I breathe out. My heart started working overtime. Becca smiled widely at me as she and her dad walked down the aisle. She was soon in front of me. She kissed her dad’s cheek, hugging h

RebeccaIt was finally here, well nearly, tomorrow was our wedding. I couldn’t believe it had come around so quickly. I was excited for us to get married again, but this time in front of everyone we loved. We were spending the night apart. It would be strange being away from him. It isn’t something that happens often. We usually spend every night next to each other, but we wanted to do it right. Not only are we spending the night apart, but we haven’t had sex in a week, either, something we both agreed to.I had Paula and Sam staying in my hotel room with me tonight. We had ordered pizza and champagne, having a girlie night.“Are you excited for tomorrow?” Paula gushed.“Yes, I can’t wait to marry him again,” I said brightly.“What are the plans for after? Babies?” Sam asked.&ldquo

Jake It has been a crazy couple of months, in the best way possible. Our wedding planning was coming along great. We only had less than two months until our wedding. We found our house too! It was a beautiful three-bedroom house with a secure front garden and a massive back door. It was perfect for us and the ideal place to raise a family when the time comes.We were finally getting moved in because we had all the paperwork signed. The house was officially ours. We have both taken a week of work to get things moved and start on decorating.I was currently at the hardware store getting a few things that we still needed while Becca started the painting. Our friends were coming by to help too, so hopefully, it won’t take too long with us all working together.“Jake?” I hear behind me.It was a voice that I haven’t heard in a while and one I

RebeccaJake and I were spending the day looking at some wedding venues. We had our wedding date, now all we needed was a venue, and then we can work from there. We have a busy few days ahead. Today was wedding venues, tomorrow was house viewings, and then my girls were taking me away on Saturday night to celebrate my marriage. I had no clue what they had planned. They wouldn’t tell me. I know I could trust them, though. They would not do to me what Jake’s friends did to him.“Do you think we will find somewhere today?” I ask as we drive.“I hope so. We see four different places. Surely one will be what we want,” Jake laughs.“Hopefully! And then we can start planning everything else,” I said excitedly.I couldn’t wait to plan our wedding. Yes, I loved how we got married, but it will be good to do it this time properl
Our little secret (Friends to lovers) Chapter Fifty Two - Sharing the news
Jake I was even more nervous now at meeting our parents. It was nerve-racking enough without a damn shaved eyebrow on top of that too. I swear to God, I am going to kill my friends. They had sent me some photos of last night, but I refuse to look at him, not until after this lunch.“You ready for this, my love?” Becca asks, taking a deep breath.“As ready as I can be,” I sigh, slipping my arm around her.We headed into the restaurant, looking around to see if our parents had arrived yet. They were all here. We booked it under my name and told both sets of parents what to say when they arrived.“They seem to be getting along,” I said.They were talking and laughing with each other, all having a drink together.“It would seem that way,” Becca smiled.We

Rebecca I got woken from my sleep with Jake staggering in the front door. He was singing and laughing to himself. I checked the time. It was six a.m. well. He must have had a good night.“Wifey, where you at,” He called out, laughing.I giggled, getting out of bed and going to him.“I am right here, love,” I smile.“Becca!” He says, grinning widely.Jake staggered his way to me, nearly falling, but I managed to grab him.“Did you have a good night?” I laugh.“Yes, but I missed you,” He pouted.He went to reach for a kiss, but I turned away from him.“No chance, you smell of whisky and cigars,” I chuckle, shaking my head.“But I want a kiss,” He groans.
Our little secret (Friends to lovers) Chapter Fifty - A lucky man!!
Jake It has been a week since Becca and I got married in secret, and we still hadn’t told anyone. We were enjoying our own little bubble, but tomorrow that is going to change. We are getting our parents together to tell them. I have no clue how this is going to go, they will probably be mad, but honestly, that doesn’t matter. Becca and I were married, and nothing was going to change that. There will be a good chance that her father may want to kill me when he finds out. I will take everything he gives me.Tonight though, I was heading out with the guys to play some pool and have a couple of beers. Becca was at work until late anyway, so it gave me a way to pass my night. It is what I needed before tomorrow because that could all end in disaster.I headed into the snooker hall where we had arranged to meet. I found them at one of the tables, setting up, a round of drinks already sitting.

Maybe about another five chapters to go, and that will be it)RebeccaI slipped my dress off, hanging it up. I had bought a sexy white wedding night lingerie set when I was out. I wanted to drive my new husband, crazy. My husband! Wow! I was officially a married woman, and I can’t be happier about it. I pulled my hair down from my up-do, letting it flow over my shoulders in natural waves. I took my red lipstick from my bag and redone my lips. I fluffed my hair, smirking to myself before heading back through.Jake was sitting on the bed, anxiously waiting for me. He looked up when he hears my heels against the floor.“Oh fuck,” He groans, licking his lips.I put my sexiest smile on and made my way to him. I put an extra sway to
