All Chapters of FALLING FOR MY DAD'S BEST FRIEND: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

[AVA]As we walked back to the cabin, my mind was racing. I couldn't believe what just happened between Brian and me. The way he had touched me, kissed me, and made me feel alive had been nothing short of amazing. I had always known that there was something special between us, but I never thought we would act on it.I stole a glance at Brian and saw that he was lost in thought as well. His face was flushed and he looked dazed, as if he couldn't believe what had just happened either. I wondered if he regretted it or if he wanted more.When we reached the cabin, Brian opened the door and motioned for me to go in first. The air inside was still and quiet, and the only sound was the soft hum of the refrigerator. I stood in the middle of the room, unsure of what to do next.Brian closed the door behind him and walked towards me. He reached out and took my hand, pulling me towards him. Our eyes met, and I felt my heart skip a beat. His gaze was intense, filled with a mixture of desire and u

[AVA]The steam from the shower fogged up the bathroom mirror as I stepped out, feeling the warm water droplets on my skin. My fingers brushed my lips as I remembered the feeling of Brian’s mouth on mine. I couldn’t believe it had actually happened, we were together now. It was like all my fantasies had come to life. I couldn’t stop grinning to myself as I reached for the towel and wrapped it around my body, feeling a wave of happiness wash over me.My heart was beating so fast, I could feel it in my chest. It was like I was living in a dream, and I never wanted to wake up. I couldn’t believe that Brian and I were finally together. The chemistry between us was undeniable, and it was obvious that we both felt the same way. Every time I thought about him, I couldn’t help but smile. And his kisses… they were like nothing I had ever experienced before. It was like his lips were made just for mine, and every time they touched, it was pure magic. I closed my eyes and let out a sigh, still f

[AVA]Sitting in the dimly lit corner of the quaint cafe, I couldn’t help but stare blankly at the steaming cup of coffee in front of me, lost in my own thoughts. Despite Sean’s long chatter about his new project at work and his failed attempt to come out to his parents, my mind kept wandering back to Brian. It had been a week since that fateful day at the lake—when everything fell apart between us. The hurtful words he had thrown at me still stung, and the image of him walking away, leaving me alone, broken, was still vivid in my mind.When I finally mustered the courage to go back to the cabin, my heart sank at the sight of its emptiness. I had feared the worst, but then I noticed the cab waiting outside. Brian might have left me to sort things out on my own, but he also made sure I got back to the city safely. As I took a sip of the hot coffee, I couldn’t help but feel a twinge of warmth in my chest at the thought that he still cared, even after everything that had happened between

[AVA]My heart was pounding as I stood outside Brian’s penthouse, trying to gather the courage to ring the bell. I had been pacing back and forth for the last fifteen minutes, my hand hovering over the buzzer, but each time I tried to press it, a wave of anxiety washed over me, and I recoiled. I knew I had to see him, to talk to him about what I had been feeling, but the fear of rejection was paralyzing me. What if he didn’t feel the same way about me anymore? What if he thought it was inappropriate and wanted to end things before they even started?No. I was stronger than this. Sean was right. Even if Brian rejected me, it wouldn’t be the end of the world. Sure, it would hurt, and it might take me forever to be over it, but I needed closure, whether it was a yes or a blunt no. I couldn’t keep living in a world of maybes and what-ifs. It was time to take a leap of faith and find out where Brian and I stood.Taking a deep breath, I lifted my hand and pressed the buzzer, trying to stead

[SEAN]We were all gathered in the living room, but my mind was far from the conversation. Mom was talking about wanting to adopt a new dog, but all I could think about was Coraline. Knowing that she was the one behind the threatening calls had me on edge, and I was seething with anger every time I looked at her. I had known this for some time now, and I knew I needed to confront her, but that would have to wait. My focus had shifted entirely when Ava told me about what my dad had done to her mom.I couldn’t believe it. My dad, the man I had looked up to my entire life, had violated someone in such a disgusting way. I knew he could be a jerk, but I never thought he was capable of something like this. I couldn’t help but wonder if this was a one-time occurrence or if he had a history of doing this to others. Did Mom know about this? Did she have any idea what he had been up to?A few years ago, I remember my dad mocking me for not being man enough to make tough choices. Today, even tho
