Goodbye

It wasn't a lie when I told them I was tired. Crying always made me feel sleepy. Like the effort drained all my energy. I thought about sleeping in my spare room, playing things safe, but I decided not to bother. I was sure Arthur would be in the studio all night again, and besides, I missed our room.I thought sleeping there tonight might make me feel better, but it didn’t. The air felt different as I entered. Colder somehow. I could probably guess the reason for that though. Guilt. I still couldn't get Victor's pain-filled face out of my mind. I sat on the edge of the bed, but all I could think about was the last time I saw him there. Staring down at the floor, too hurt to even look at me, the misery and betrayal on his face. I could feel my eyes tearing up again at the thought. I shook my head,

Welcome Back

I was sitting on the bench in the garden. The soft breeze made the roses sway gently around me. I watched as the sun dipped lower and lower in the sky, covering everything in a faint, orangey glow. Suddenly, a hand slipped into mine. I glanced next to me. Jack smiled warmly, bringing my hand to his lips."Promise you'll stay with me forever, Anna," he murmured, pressing my palm against his cheek.I smiled as he did. Roses, sunset, this spot in the garden. It was exactly like the first time we met. Only now, it was even better. No more sneaking around or awkward moments. We could finally be together. Really be together.So, why did I still feel like something was missing? That fee

I Know You

“Jack. Jack. Jack.”I murmured his name over and over again as I covered his face with dozens of kisses. He didn’t try to do anything to stop me. Instead, he seemed to be trying hard to stop himself from laughing. He rubbed my back gently, smiling at me.“Goodness, and here I was worried you might not even remember me,” he teased. “If I’d known that this was what was waiting for me, I probably would have woken you up sooner.”Gentle, playful. It was Jack through and through. I buried my face against his shoulder and closed my eyes. There was just something so comfortable about being in his arms. I know it technically hadn’t been that long. Not even a week really. Still, I could

Modeling

Despite my annoyance, I suppressed the urge to blurt out everything about Victor. Jack had no way to know that saying something like that would be upsetting to me. More than that, this wasn’t the kind of thing I could be overly emotional about. I’d already hurt Victor by not thinking through my actions. I didn’t want to hurt Jack too.I took a deep breath and smiled. Alright, it would be better to tell him the more detailed part of things later, but for now, it wouldn’t hurt if I just let him know my thoughts about Victor. At least then he might tone down the criticism a bit."Actually," I explained, "Victor isn't that bad. In fact, I’d even say he's pleasant t

A Misunderstanding

I took a deep breath and forced my legs to start moving. Jack looked concerned. Not that I could blame him really. I’m sure I was acting more than a little jumpy for just “looking at some pictures.” As far as he knew anyway.I held the book out for him, but he just stared down at the cover in confusion. I think he was expecting more of a traditional kind of album. I pushed the book into his hands."Arthur has a special way to hide his 'special' photos," I explained.He stared at me blankly. I still don’t think he really understood what I was saying. I gestured to the book in his hands. He looked over the cover one last time before finally breaking down and opening it.His eyes went wide the moment he did. He quickly slammed it shut. His face turne

While You Were Gone

I tried my best to swallow the lump that was forming in my throat. I had to do this. It was now or never, so it had to be now. I took a deep breath to steady myself, but I still couldn’t make my eyes meet his."Actually, he wasn't wrong." My voice was almost a whisper."What do you mean?"Excellent question. What did I mean by that? What was the best way to explain things to him when I barely knew what was going on myself? I felt so bad for putting him in this position. He was already worried about whether I’d still be here or not when he left. Now, not only did he suddenly find out that another personality was self-aware, but he was also about to learn that he’

Don't Choose

I watched for the longest time as Jack stared at the ground. The look on his face was somewhere between annoyance and concentration. I couldn’t tell what he was thinking. However, a deep sigh signaled that I was probably about to find out."This is difficult," he mumbled finally.I nodded. "Even more than you know, honestly.""Why? What else is happening?" He asked."Victor," I said sadly. "We kind of had a fight the last time he was here. I don’t know how to explain it really. A series of miscommunications paired with me being ignorant about your condition and insensitive towards his feelings. Unintentionally, of course, but that doesn’t change the fact that I did it. I hurt him pretty badly, and I’m not sure how, or if, I can even fix it.”

A Small Request

I said before that I liked how kind and gentle Jack was, but there was another thing I really liked about him. His patience. I was taking a long time to answer, I knew I was, but he never once tried to rush me. He just stood there, patiently waiting for me to respond.I swallowed a few times, trying to clear the lump from my throat. I took a shaky breath and finally forced the words out of my mouth. "Not yet.”"Alright, good. And do you feel the same way about the others?" He asked. I nodded. "Then that's all there is to it. Anna, I said I wasn’t going to make you choose between us and I meant it. Your relationships are your relationships. It wouldn’t be f

Puppy Love

I felt the warmth of his body as it pressed against mine. His fingers kept inching closer and closer towards my aching clit. My mind was a mess. Fulfill his request? For my body?My stomach was a flutter of nerves at the idea, but I wasn’t sure why. After all, hadn’t we done this all before? I'd already seen his body, and we’d definitely done more than just some light petting by now. So why did I feel so nervous about doing it again? It was stupid to ask that question. I already knew the answer. It was because this would be my first real time doing something like this with Jack. Different men in the same body. I understood that now better than ever. Jack wasn’t Victor, and Victor wasn’t Jack. The way they spoke to me, the way they teased me, the way they touched my body. The

The Basics

As always, the garden looked beautiful. It was just too bad that I couldn't enjoy it. I hated my mind. The moment we stepped outside the dream I had last night popped back into my head.I didn't want to feel anxious in the garden. I loved the garden. It was the place where Victor and I had walked before, where Arthur and I took photos, where Jack and I first met. Yet as I looked around, all I could remember were the hundreds and hundreds of agonized faces that had surrounded me. All of them crying out, begging me to choose them. I almost shuddered just thinking of it. Would I ever feel comfortable here again?"Are you alright, Anna?" Jack asked suddenly.I sighed. I felt like I was getting that question a lot lately. How did I somehow manage to make
