Rejena

After three hours of writing, I get up and stretch before I head to the shower to wash off this morning as I had walked straight to the typewriter after coming back from the hike with Dallon. I take my time to wash off the sweat and the river water, taking extra care to wash my hair. Once I am done, I decide to put a bit of effort into my looks. I take my time to style my hair in perfect waves, then apply a light eye-shadow that makes my eyes pop slightly more.

I slipped into my green summer dress, the lace cool against my skin, light as a breath. The green is the shade of new leaves and summer fields, soft and alive all at once. Tiny, embroidered vines curled along the hem and sleeves, little leaves stitched in delicate patterns that danced when I moved. It felt less like putting on clothing and more like stepping into something wild and beautiful, like wearing a piece of the season itself.

My shoes are silver sandals that wrap up my legs, giving me the feeling of being a godd

  • Fuel Me, Break Me, Love Me   Chapter 46: Group chat

    Rejena“Are you sure you still want to do this?” Dan asks, sitting in front of me, looking like his same old self, but there is an exciting buzz around him, mixed with sadness. “He is with someone else, Jena. You don’t have to leave here.” He says and I know he isn’t trying to hurt me, but his words cut deeper than a knife.“It has nothing to do with Dalon, Dan. I am doing this for me. You know I enjoyed working on the social committee more than I ever loved the numbers. I am a creative person that had to become someone willing to settle in order to survive. I am done just living for a salary and going home only to do it all over again every single day. I found myself, regardless of what happened between Dalon and I, and I am not going back to what I was doing. That isn’t living. You have your beautiful wife and daughter to go back to every night. I have my dogs, yes, but that is it. I want to see what life has to offer and I am sorry to say this, but I am not going to find what you h

  • Fuel Me, Break Me, Love Me   Chapter 45: A little too late

    DalonI fucked up, big time. There is no denying that. As I pace up and down in my hotel room, Tiane lying on the bed that I won’t be touching again, even if she is lying there fully clothed, reading the book that I haven’t been able to read because I stopped going to school when I was fifteen and couldn’t split my focus between my racing career and attending classes and studying for exams. I did get my GED, but even that was by pure luck. I can read, but it is a struggle, and I wish I had just told Jena that from the start instead of pretending that letters didn’t get mixed around in my head and what would take the average person minutes to read a passage would take me half an hour.After Jena left the restaurant, nearly getting hit by a car in the process, I went back to Tiane and asked her for her help. I need to know what Jena said in this book. As Tiane reads the book out load, I start to feel more and more sick by the second. I read the first six chapters, but that was basicall

  • Fuel Me, Break Me, Love Me   Chapter 44: The set up

    RejenaI didn’t have something that I would consider classy, so after I sent my resignation letter, informing HR that I will be doing my exit interview in three days, I decided to go out and find something that will hopefully knock the breath right out of Dalon. Tonight, I am going to tell him exactly how I feel. No more beating around the bush. I want a life with him and I want to be by his side as his woman, not as a friend or a potential partner. I want to be his partner, his cheerleader, his biggest supporter. I don’t want to wonder if we will ever be more, or if he might not truly be as interested as I think he is. I want to know, and I want him to know. He might have read my book, but I can understand if he might not be sure if I still feel the same.I choose a daring black dress that sits on me like a second skin. The front drops low enough to show cleavage, but still decent enough that the girls will stay in place and not look ready to slip out and flash the public. At my thig

  • Fuel Me, Break Me, Love Me   Chapter 43: Drastic measures

    DalonJena didn’t even realize that I had walked in on her conversation. Admittedly, I only heard the end of the conversation, but it was all I needed to hear. She is going home, and she isn’t giving me much warning. She is doing exactly what I had done to her when I had left Italy. She might give me last-minute notice, but that is it. Did I read too much into last night? Did I scare her off by sleeping in the same bed? Or was it the fact that I brought her to my home?Instead of trying to figure out myself what the hell I had done wrong, I call my group chat for advice. Yes, I know how bizarre it is that I have a group chat, but we practically see each other ten months out of the year, we were bound to for a bond that very few would understand, and if anyone is going to be able to give me advice on what to do, it will be the drivers that I have spent the past five years with.“Really Dalon, this early in the morning? You know, unlike you, we were actually at the party last night.” Ca

  • Fuel Me, Break Me, Love Me   Chapter 42: You love him

    RejenaThere is only an hour time difference between the UK and South Africa, but still I sit at my laptop at 4am, trying to get a head start on all my work in the hopes that I can log off early and spend some time with Dalon. Waking up, wrapped around him, his hand holding onto my knee protectively as if he is afraid to hurt me even in his sleep, has made this yearning for him grow tenfold. I no longer just want to see where this will go, I want this to work more than anything else. The only problem is, I miss my life, my dogs, my parents, my sister and brother. I can’t say I particularly miss my friends, as we have all drifted apart after Collen passed away and I had poured myself into my work.My phone vibrating on the table next to me, has my nearly jumping, not expecting anyone to call me this early in the morning. When I look at my phone and see that it is Dan, dread floods my system. It is never a good thing if he calls me this early in the morning.“Good morning Dan, isn’t it

  • Fuel Me, Break Me, Love Me   Chapter 41: Getting to know her

    DalonInstead of going to the afterparty like the other drivers have done, I took Rejena to my house that I keep in London for when I come to visit my parents or for my home race weekends. I didn’t plan on bringing Jena here, as I didn’t want her to feel pressured. We have been doing amazing after the club and, drunk session we had in her room. We feel more comfortable with each other.When I drove away from the track, I wasn’t even thinking about where I was going, I just drove. I only realized where I was heading when I was practically up my driveway. I should probably have turned around and gone back to the hotel, but then I looked at Jena sleeping in the passenger seat and all I wanted at that moment was to give her a bed that wasn’t in another hotel room. I wanted to see her in my bed, hopefully in my clothes as all her clothes would be at the hotel. Luckily, she has her laptop with her wherever she goes, which means we don’t have to get up at dawn to get it from the hotel. Her s
