All Chapters of Falling Just as Hard: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

JAKEI’m having a good dream, it has Olivia in it instead of the red head that I got with last weekend at the club.The reaction my body has to dream is instant and its not a surprise. Her black eyes are drawing me in, threatening to drown me and put me completely under.My eyes linger down to her chest and the luscious curves that she hides all the time with her manly clothes.But I’m not one to complain because I alone can see her like this because she was comfortable enough to let me.Olivia leans towards me and I can instantly read her intentions so I lean towards her, our lips almost touching.It’s the perfect moment, so imagine my shock when there a loud bang that has my eyes flying open and the sweet scene in front of my eye disappears.But it is replaced with something even better.Olivia is standing in front of me in nothing but the black lingerie I had bought for her. If I thought the red one was the sexiest one then this it looks like I was clearly wrong.I don’t realize sh

OLIVIAWhen the sun rises the next day I wake up wearing Jake’s clothes with no memory of putting them on.It smells so much like him that I never want to take off. It’s a mixture of night life and an ocean scent.I snug deeper into his bed, it was sad that he wasn’t here when I woke up. Having him put his arms around me was the best I’ve felt in my life. Or at least close to it.I’m getting out of bed when a certain pair of hazel eyes flash in my head. I’m not sure yet what to make of what she told me at the party.Asking Jake might be improper and he might get defensive, it’ll even turn out worse if she lying.I mean his supposed father was leaving his entire company in his hands, that meant he had a lot of trust in Jake.Maybe it was nothing. Just sibling rivalry and I was now choosing to stay out of it. Whatever was going on with his family was not my concern. Besides I wasn’t even his real wife.When I follow his voice I find him in the kitchen making coffee. He slides me a mug f

OLIVIAMy entire body is aware of every point where my bare skin meets Jake’s to where his warmth send ripples of pleasure along my being.I’m not sure how we ended in this position. All I remember is meeting a fine blonde with baby blue eyes and taking her home with me, her name was Ashley, Natalie? I’m not sure.I can feel his arousal press deep into my stomach while he’s asleep.I want to touch him, after part of him. Most importantly I want to know why I feel this way for way for him.Yes, he’s handsome but he’s not the only handsome boy I’ve ever come across. He’s funny but he’s not the only funny guy I’ve known.Maybe it’s the way he touches me, but other men have touched me in the past and it didn’t make me feel this way.Many tried to force these reactions out of me but I felt nothing until the first day I kissed Jess.We’d met at a club. I was new in town and lost and she was trying to rebel against her rich parents.I envied her but she envied me, to be able to go as pleased

JAKEThe water running in the kitchen reminds me that I’m not alone in my worries. Kyle is here and he would know what to do.I look out to the drive way but it’s still empty. Why were the taking so long.Sharlene said it was a friendly date to get to know Olivia better but I knew it was far from the truth.It didn’t also help that she looked at Olivia like she was a toy that she needed to have.It wasn’t hard to tell Sharlene was interested in her to some level but Olivia was mine alone to have and I was going to keep it that way.“Do you think she said something to Olivia and she decided to run away?” I ask Kyle as I walk into the kitchen. My face a mirror of the desperation I felt.“Relax man, she’s not going to just run off into the sunset because of something Sharlene said to her, at least not without confronting you first” Kyle says.He’s not as worried as I am because he has nothing to lose.“If she tells her our entire plan then I’m totally screwed” I run my palm over face.“F

OLIVIA There’s a lot going on in my head as I make my way to the apartment. I have so much questions that I can’t seem to get the answers to. Just when I thought I had everything figured out with Jake. I’m so deep in thoughts that I don’t notice he is standing at the already open door until he embraces me. I go still at his touch and I know he feels my body shut down too. My arms that was aching to wrap themselves around him remains mute at my sides. “Are you alright? Where did you go?” he sounds worried and I should feel bad for making him weary but I’m not. It’s hard to tell if he’s actually worried about me or he’s worried that I’d find something about him that I wasn’t supposed to know. “I was worried when I woke up and there was no sign of you” he continues despite the lack of reaction from me. “I thought you…” “Ran away” I complete the sentence for him before stepping away and watching his arms fall to his side. “I’m not that easy to get rid of” I say and walk into the ap
