Adam’s P.O.V.
The soft glow of the morning sun filtered through Jenna’s curtains, casting a warm golden hue across the room. I stirred, blinking against the light as I slowly became aware of my surroundings. I felt the soft warmth of blankets and the unmistakable sensation of Jenna’s presence beside me. A soft smile tugged at my lips as I turned my head to look at her. There she was, her blonde hair splayed across the pillow, her face peaceful in slumber as she was lying on her tummy, her arms tucked underneath her pillow. She looked like an angel, and I couldn’t feel like the luckiest man alive.
Home...
she asked me to come to her home.
In my book, this was a massive step in the right direction. Last night, we didn't end up in the same bed purely out of lust for each other, she had asked me to spend the night with her, wanting me to be with her. I leaned in closer, pressing a kiss to her forehead, h
“Our first date might have been a bad date, but overall, that date made me leave that coffee shop, more determined than ever to come after you and make you mine. After sharing that cup of coffee, I knew just how badly I really wanted you.” I told her the truth, seeing how her eyes seemed to melt as she looked at me while telling the story.“A thunderbolt?” She asked me, smiling as she looked at the second pendant on the bracelet.“We shared our first kiss during a thunderstorm,” I told her matter-of-factly, but she started to shake her head at me, wanting to tell me how I was wrong because our first kiss was shared in High School and I was just an ass who just couldn’t remember it, I quickly placed my finger on her lips. Shit… I still hoped one day I would be able to make her forget about that.“Our first kiss that actually mattered,” I told her, seeing her smile at me as her eyes started
Jenna’s P.O.V.As I made my way towards the High School building, the anticipation in my chest felt like a swarm of butterflies taking flight. Today was not just an ordinary day, it was a culmination of months of planning and preparation, a day that would hold a special place in my heart for a long time to come. It marked the grand opening of the library and a double celebration, the graduation party of Adam’s two sisters. But for me, it held a significance that transcended the joy of the occasion.Weeks had already passed since Adam and I had made our relationship official to all of Fairview. And the past weeks had been nothing short of magical in my book, maybe that was why it felt as if time was just flashing by us. Every moment spent with Adam felt like a cherished memory in the making. We had navigated the delicate dance of love and commitment, and the connection between us had only deepened with time. I cared about Adam more than I had ever cared abou
“Look, there’s Adam right there.” Skye pointed toward the stage, where my hot-as-sin boyfriend was standing tall in his formal attire, ready to assist in handing out diplomas along with his fellow colleagues. His expression was a mix of excitement and concentration. And he looked just as handsome as ever in his own unique way. And even after weeks of being in a committed relationship, whenever he spotted me, grinned at me, or even just waved at me, my heart still skipped a beat on receiving his attention. Gran must have seen our small interaction since she raised an eyebrow playfully while nudging me.“Jenna, stop swooning over that man standing on that stage. People will start talking.” She told me in a playful tone, to which I laughed. Since I already knew Adam and mine’s relationship already was the talk of the town these days. I guess that was what happen
Jenna’s P.O.V.The anticipation was electric, as I stood before the grand entrance of the new High School’s library. It was a momentous occasion, not only for the entire community of Fairview but also for me personally. This was a project that my company had poured its heart and soul into, a project that honored the memory of my late uncle, Ben.As the invited guests began to gather around the entrance, I couldn’t help but feel a swell of pride and gratitude. This library was more than just bricks and mortar, it was a living tribute to my uncle’s passion and love for books. It was a testament to the values he had instilled in me, the values that had shaped my journey, and my determination to carry on his legacy after he had passed.The ribbon-cutting ceremony was about to begin, and I was joined by dignitaries, educators, and members of the community. The giant scissors glinted in the light of the stage lights displaye
As we entered 'Raw', a steak restaurant over in Brooksville, the warm aroma of freshly cooked meat enveloped us. The decor of the place was elegant yet cozy, setting the stage for a wonderful evening. I couldn’t help but smile as I looked around the table at this vibrant, close-knit family. Eluna and Selene were both still beaming with the pride of their graduation day. They wore matching smiles and a glint of accomplishment in their eyes. Blade, Skye, and Koda were engaged in a lively debate about getting their stuff packed and moved out of the family house, their voices filling the air with enthusiasm. Gran, the true matriarch of the family, sat regally at the head of the table, a twinkle in her eyes as she watched all of her grandchildren. And by the sounds of it, I wasn’t the only one who had figured out that Gran wasn’t her mouthy usual self, since Blade looked over to his grandmother.“Gran, are you feeling OK?” I heard him as
Jenna’s P.O.V.The afternoon sun streamed through the windows, casting a warm glow over my uncle’s bedroom as I sat on the floor amidst boxes and crates, sorting through the belongings of my late uncle, Ben. Decluttering had become a necessary and emotional task since he had passed away. Each item held a memory, a piece of the man who had raised me when my mother was no longer around. I rolled over the sleeves of my hoodie, it was actually Adam’s, but ever since he had brought it with him to come and spend the night here, I had basically made it my own. And seeing the look in Adam’s eyes whenever I was wearing his hoodie, honestly wasn’t something I minded that much either.or the speed at which he mostly would rip the hoodie off of me as well…I smiled, taking in a deep breath and being able to smell his scent of the sweater. Ever since Eluna and Selene had graduated, it looked as if the en
Adam’s P.O.V.The sun was beginning to set, casting a warm, golden glow through the windows of Gran’s old house. I had spent the entire day helping her pack her belongings as she prepared to move to the elderly home. It was a bittersweet moment, filled with memories of the countless hours I had spent in this house as a child. Gran didn’t seem to mind this moving day at all, all she had done all day was boss my brothers around. The thought of her leaving this familiar place was a difficult one to accept for me. I had been considering buying the house and keeping it in the family, but financial constraints had made it seem like an impossible dream nowadays.As we sorted through her belongings, memories flooded back to me, family gatherings, holidays, and birthday parties, the comforting feeling that came with being inside this house. It was where I had grown up in a way, the place where I had learned many life lessons, and where I had shared
Jenna’s P.O.V.Finding out the truth about my uncle had left me in a state of shock, the awful truth about him keeping my mother’s letters from me, was unraveling before my eyes life a nightmare I just couldn’t escape. The weight of this knowledge lay heavy on my shoulders, and I needed solace, a refuge from the storm of emotions that threatened to consume me.I made my way to Adam’s house. The familiar path that I had driven so many times by now, seemed like an unfamiliar journey into the unknown right now. I just needed Adam, his presence, and the reassurance that only he could provide. God… I just needed to feel his arms around me and the sound of his voice telling me everything would be alright.As I arrived at the Miller house, I was greeted by Eluna who opened the door after I had rang the doorbell.“Hey. Adam’s isn’t back from Gran’s yet.” She told me as she op
