Jessica

I watch how Damon handles the customers, and my heart is racing, not because he’s defending my actions but because I know I am definitely fired. Most of the lawyers are looking at him seriously, but the tall drunk blonde that has caused most of the issues tonight is trying to argue.

“Oh! So, I guess I’ll get my firm on this!” he threatens, and I watch a smile creep on Damon’s face. I see he likes a challenge, but I can also see he doesn’t lose. His eyes flicker as he looks around the table; I know he won’t back down.

Mike walks over now, and my heart flutters! He asked me out tonight, and I said yes, but then I feel panic; what if he is mad at me too!? Did I just screw everything up with him?

Mike tells the lawyers to leave, and the tall blonde gets up, glaring at me as he throws shot glasses down on the table. I grab Mike’s arm and he stands close to me, making sure none of them retaliate against me. His cologne is more pungent, and I inhale as I swoon over him. It wasn’t t

    DamonI yawn as I walk through the club, turning off all the lights. Tonight was pretty intense, but it’s not the worst one we have had. I get to the end of the hallway and stop as my cell phone rings; I look at the caller ID and sigh as I see Mikey’s name pop up. “Hey, Man. Is everything okay? Did you get Jessica home okay?” I ask in a hurry. I am curious if anything happened, and I know he knows. Silence.“Mikey, are you there?”“Yeah, I got her home,” he pauses, “And before three AM.” He adds. I smile- knowing he is telling me this, so I know nothing physical happened. Mikey is a good friend, but I also know Jessica isn’t that kind of girl.“Are you headed home now?” I ask casually, not to give my jealousy away.“Yeah, and you?” he asks.I flip the last switch off and reach into my pocket, grabbing my keys, “Yeah, I’m headed home too. Tabby is waiting for me,” I say mischievously, but I have already texted her, telling her to go home.It just doesn’t feel right. Not anymore.“Per

    JessicaMike says nothing but reaches the back of his hand up, wiping my saliva off his face. I sit back in the seat as awkward silence ensues, and then I can’t help it, I laugh hysterically at my idiotic mistake. Mike looks up slowly, not knowing what to think, but then he laughs too as he stares at me, “Are you ok?” he asks once the laughter is broken.I nod and then shake my head, “I just sucked Mike Clody’s fucking nose,” I say, looking at him. This is beyond embarrassing, and he smiles, shaking his head. His fingers reach for my chin, and they take hold of it gently.“You did. THE Mike Clody, Jessica Sanders.” He winks, “You just tried to eat my nose,” he says, lifting my chin to meet his eyes. I blush, and then it happens; he leans into me, his lips slowly brushing against mine. Then they touch completely, and he kisses me. LIKE REALLY KISSES ME.Time stands still or at least it feels like it. His tongue brushes against my lips, and I open them granting him access. Our tongue

    DamonI stomp towards my room as my father’s shouts only grow louder, “Damon! Get back here!!” But my mom’s voice is louder, “Leave him be! You aren’t ready to tell him!” She argues with him. I stop, turning on my heel, and step back toward them, only to stop.Tell me what!?“Beverly! Shut up!” My father whisper-yells, and their voices become quieter; I know they won’t tell me, so I saunter on, quickly getting to my wing of the mansion and opening my bedroom door. The room is dark, and I walk in fast, slamming the door closed and flipping on the light.“There you are!” A voice comes from behind me, and I jump, pulling my pistol and turning around, aiming at the voice. “What the fuck, Damon!” Tabby shouts, sitting up in my bed. She is completely naked, and I glare at her.“What the hell are you doing here? I told you to go home!” I say, unloading the gun and placing it in my desk drawer. “I know you didn’t mean it, baby. Plus, my home is so close,” her eyes meet mine, “I live on the

    Jessica“Jessica! Wake up!” Julie’s voice is the worst alarm I have ever heard after very having barely any sleep. I swear I just fell asleep not even an hour ago. I couldn’t stop thinking about Damon’s dad and my mom.I wonder if he knows they knew each other. “Five more minutes,” I groan, and she laughs, hitting me with the throw pillow.“No, because we will miss the school bus,” she counters. I smile, my eyes slowly opening. My whole body is exhausted, but I am so excited for today; Mikey and I have a date.“Fine,” I giggle, throwing off the blankets and sitting up. “Are you two ready to go? Do you have everything?” I ask, looking around. I usually prepare everything the night before, but I forgot last night.“Yes. I made both our lunches and got stuff together, but Jackson is saying he’s sick,” Julie says, rolling her eyes, “But he’s probably faking,” she says snootily, and I nod, getting up. “Jackson,” I call, walking toward his room, but he isn’t there. “Jackson!” I call again

    Damon“Hey baby, wake up.” Tabby’s tongue is in my ear, and I slowly open my eyes, looking around- did she sleep over? “What are you doing here still?” I ask, my voice scratchy and annoyed.“Well, I couldn’t walk home so late,” she pouts, rolling over and looking into my eyes, but this annoys me further. She knows damn well I don’t do sleepovers.“As you pointed out last night, Tabby, you live on the grounds. I am pretty sure you would have made it home just fine,” I groan, sitting up, and she stares at me.“Does this break our deal?” she asks me with a whimper. I scoff, turning to face her, “No. This doesn’t break our deal, but you know the rules.” I remind her.“Your parents are never going to believe we are a couple if we don’t act like one, Damon. They need to believe that I am your girlfriend. If this doesn’t look real, my father will surely take me back to New Jersey.” She sighs, sitting up on her elbow.She has a point. I am not worried about fooling my parents or hers. The

    Jessica“Can I come in?” Damon sighs, shifting on his feet. I nod, looking at him, and then back down to the brown carpet flooring. I thought Mikey may drop by, but why is Damon here instead?I can’t believe he is here.“You didn’t need to do this, Damon,” I smile awkwardly, and he sets the bags on the kitchen counter.“I know, but when Mikey told me your brother was sick, I knew you would need some stuff. I am sure leaving the house when you have a sick kid is not easy. Plus, I know you didn’t get much sleep last night after work since you hung out with Mikey.”He says this with a bit of dismay, and I watch as he searches the bags, looking for an item. Is he jealous?“Yes, I had to cancel our date today. Jackson is really sick,” I sigh, tears welling in my eyes, but I push them away. I really miss my mom right now, but this isn’t the time to sulk. He nods as he grabs a humidifier from a bag and opens the packaging, reading the instructions. I watch in awe as he holds the canister an

    DamonMy heart is racing when I hear the knock on the door. Jackson had a fever that was high enough to cause seizures, and I think they would have started soon if Jessica and I hadn’t gotten him into the cool water. As soon as he opened his eyes, I could tell something was wrong. It was almost like he was hallucinating.Jessica’s face is puffy from crying as she stands, but I shake my head, “Stay here. I’ll get it.” She nods, and I walk out of the bathroom. We could have taken Jackson to the ER, but she told me she didn’t have health insurance. I was already pretty sure they didn’t, so I called Tabby on instinct instead. Whenever someone is sick, I always call her.I open the door, and she grins at me, wearing only a trench coat with her lab coat over it. Her doctor’s bag is in hand, and honestly, I have never been so happy to see her in my life, “Hey, he’s in here,” I tell her, but my mouth gapes as she opens her trench coat, revealing she is wearing only lingerie underneath. My ey

    JessicaI say nothing as I watch Tabby look at the tubes of swabs she took from Jackson, looking for a positive marker. I don’t understand why I am so angry. Damon is my boss and someone I shouldn’t even think about, but I do think about him…way more than I should. I think I am mad that he lied.Damon Ricci does do girlfriends; he just doesn’t do me.“Yep. Influenza for the win,” Tabby announces, shaking the vial in her hand. Jackson smiles brightly and then sighs, laying back down as he coughs pathetically. I watch as Tabby smiles, rubbing his forehead, “Don’t worry, this should only last three days to five.” Jackson sighs, looking into Tabby’s eyes.“And you’ll check on me, right? Dr. Tabby?” He groans like he’s in pain. Damon chuckles but then quickly hides it by clearing his throat, “Sure. Dr. Tabby would love to come to check on you every day.”Tabby nods, smiling, “Yes, I can do that,” she then turns her attention to me. “Jessica, have you ever had the flu?” she asks, throwing

    EricI can’t believe it’s been five years since I have seen her, but as she opens the exam room door, my entire world is made right once again. She looks the same but even more beautiful- if that’s even possible.She wraps her arms around me and hugs me tight as she sobs into my shoulder, “I thought you were out tomorrow,” she whispers, her tears wetting my shoulder, and I smile, holding her tighter.“He let me go a day early,” I respond, looking back into her eyes.These last five years have been hard, but I knew they would be worth it once this moment came. It felt like the years went by too slowly, but now that this day has arrived, I know it was all worth it.Turning on Marcus was difficult. His goons even came after me, but they failed to kill me. Agent Latter agreed he would leave my family alone if I did this, but really, I knew he had no evidence to prosecute them. We always ensured we were careful where Marcus liked to throw his power around like a drunk emperor.Saying goodb

    JessicaMy whole body shakes as I sit in an interrogation room; what the hell is happening? I was only able to hug Damo briefly before they put us in separate cars and took us here. Even after everything Marcus has told me, I still want to be with Damon.I want to hear his side; I want to know what truly happened.The door finally opens, and Agent Latter appears; he has a can of soda with him and a sandwich. I watch as he walks inside the room and places them down on the table in front of me, “Please, eat and have a drink. We have a lot to talk about.”I shake my head, my stomach still in knots, and he sighs before I speak, “You knew my parents?” I ask, and he nods, sitting up straighter.“Yes, I was in charge of them,” he states, now sitting back. “Your parents were in a lot of debt, and I had made a deal with them.”My eyebrows raise, “A deal?”“Yes, if they could gather info on Macrus Lovoto and testify against him in court, then your family would go into witness protection, and yo

    JessicaTonight has been like a weird dream, but the kind you don’t want to wake up from. I am finally with Damon, and it feels right. The way he was so gentle with me when we made love. The way he knew it was a big deal to me but also didn’t push it or made sure it was truly what I wanted was everything.He is mine.My heart flutters at every glance he gives me as we clean up the club, and I can’t wait to go to breakfast with him; I can’t wait to see what this will become.End game.He said the words, not me. He means those words, and I agree. I know it seems quick, and I know it seems crazy, but our future is bright- I just know it.I grab the last trash bag and tie it, sneaking glances at Damon while my heart flutters with anticipation…. I have fallen in love with him. Everything has led me here…to him. I wave at Damon as I open the back door and walk outside toward the large dumpster with a smile on my face. After this, it will be just the two of us, and we can talk and begin to t

    DamonHer hands wrap around my neck, and my heart instantly races. Things have been so weird between us since the funeral, but I am not giving up on us- not yet.She pulls back from me, her eyes meeting mine, and I can’t help but see just how beautiful she truly is. My hand goes to her cheek, and I touch her soft skin as she stares at me, my head coming closer to hers as my lips push against hers. I can feel her stiffen momentarily, but she doesn’t pull away. She returns the kiss, and my whole being shudders with pure delight- this has been what I have always wanted, but why did I try to deny it for so long?She pulls back away from me, her eyes showing fear. My fingers trace her soft lips, the essence of what she tastes like still on my tongue. She tries to get up, but I pull her back to me, “Jessica,” I say as I look deeply into her eyes, “This,” I pause, “This what was always meant to be,” I say softly, though I am pleading as I speak the truth.This has been a nonstop dance for b

    JessicaIt’s been two weeks since Mike’s funeral, and it still doesn’t feel real. I took an Uber here to work tonight, but Mindy has been picking me up. I cried the entire way here; I miss him so much. Nothing will ever be the same again. Damon offered me a ride, but he isn’t in the suitable head space right now, and I couldn’t allow it. He is hanging onto me as a link to Mike. He thinks I don’t see it, but I do.There was always that tension between us, but how can I just throw myself into him now? It wouldn’t be right or fair to Mike.“Jessica, table six needs more shots,” Mindy smiles, and I nod, walking to the bar.“No problem, we only have three tables tonight; I am on it,” I giggle, and she nods, walking to the other. The club has been pretty much dead since we re-opened; people are afraid to come here…. not that I blame them.What happened here still haunts my dreams, but the evidence no longer remains of what happened to Mike at this club, thankfully. Damon made sure to redo

    TabbyEverything comes down to this moment, this exact one that I am, but it didn’t have to. If only Damon hadn’t tried to play me as a fool. If only he hadn’t treated me so poorly…maybe I wouldn’t be destroying his family…. or her.When I dropped off that envelope to Jessica, I did it because I hated the way they looked at one another. The way he looked at her was the way I wished he would always look at me, but he never noticed me. He never wanted me, not like that.He looks at Jessica like she’s made of some sort of fragile, expensive glass. He acts like he’s afraid to break her, but I see the desire in both their eyes and the way they long for one another.I thought that by asking him to be my fake boyfriend, he would finally see my value. See me more than just a plaything or something he fucked, but that couldn’t happen, not with her around.The pictures were supposed to tell her to back off. I was hoping she would hate that Damon’s dad slept with her mother. I was hoping that sh

  • The Billionaire's Lust For Cheap Perfume   Time?

    DamonThe service was nice, and even though that speech was hard to make, it was what Mikey deserved. Everything I said about him was true. Each story that every person shared was a beautiful reminder of who he truly was.Jackson’s story was the one that surprised me the most, though. I know it can’t be easy going to two funerals in such a short amount of time. Mikey had only been in Jessica’s sibling’s life for such a short time, but he made a mark and a positive impact on them- that’s just what he did.I sit on the couch at Clody’s house, and there is still crying but also laughter as everyone talks about him. More memories are shared, but I sit there in a daze. - how can this be real?“Damon, would you like a slice of cake?” Mindy asks me, and I shake my head.“No, I am not really hungry,” I sigh as I look up at her, but she hands me the plate anyway.“It’s marble…his favorite. Have a slice for him at least,” she pauses, “Plus, I haven’t seen you eat a single thing today. You might

    JessicaI can’t believe how many people are here. Mike was popular in high school, but I went away to college. I had no idea he was this popular in the entire town. I see some of our old peers from high school standing among the large group, but I also see cashiers from the grocery store and even restaurant owners along with their staff. So many people have shown up today because Mike was that type of person; he was loved. The crowd is so diverse, showing that, and my heart aches…..“Now, Damon Ricci, Mikey’s best friend, would like to make a speech.” The preacher announces, and I hear Damon inhale deeply beside me. My eyes widen as Damon stands- I am unsure if he is in any condition to make a speech, but if anyone should, it should be him. He and Mike have been friends for many years now; BEST FRIENDS.Damon carefully watches his footing as he walks toward the podium where the preacher stood. His eyes stay on the ground till he arrives at the wood stand. He then turns around slowly

    DamonMy whole world was shattered in one moment. One minute Mikey was talking to me, and the next, he was flatlining. It still doesn’t feel real, and sometimes I even forget he is gone. I have even tried to call him a few times before I remember he will never answer.My heart hurts so much sometimes that I don’t know how to breathe. He made me promise I would take care of Jessica and her siblings, but right now, I can barely take care of myself. Mindy has been making sure I eat and bathe. She has been staying with me at night while I have my breakdowns; she is a true best friend…but she can never replace him.My father hasn’t let me near Marcus since he found out Mikey died. He says that Marcus needs to suffer, and if he lets me near him, I’ll kill him in a fit of rage. He isn’t wrong- I would probably kill him as soon as my eyes saw him.He doesn’t deserve mercy, and that’s what a swift death would be.I will say his screams coming from the basement have given me some relief…. he de
