Tangled Love Chapter 18: Feelings.
Three years ago.Jace's POV.Olivia went upstairs to shower, I'm currently pacing back and forth in her living room like a nervous little bitch.The fuck am I nervous about?I don't know why I'm here, I think it has something to do with my feelings, which is a first cause it's never about how I feel, I'm all about making other people satisfied.Which proves that Cass was right.This is not gonna end well for me.Her dog is watching me and growling at me but hey, what's new?Thirty minutes pass and she still hasn't walked down those stairs.How many minutes does it take a girl to shower?I wait a little while longer but I eventually find myself climbing the stairs, as soon as I get upstairs I hear muffled sobbing coming from what I'm assuming is her room.She's crying?She's been up here crying while I was down there trying to communicate with her dog?I grasp the doorknob, slowly twisting it open and peeking my head inside first.She's sitting on the edge of her bed in her bathroom tow
Tangled Love Chapter 19: Ryder.
Present Day.Olivia's POV."...And then he kisses the life out of me, I'm like ready to rip his clothes off at this point but guess what happens next?" I ask Myra and Izzy as I pace back and forth in front of the couch they are seated on."What?" They question at the same time."He lets me go and steps away from me." I tell them the events of my night."What the fuck?" Izzy laughs."No way." Exclaims Myra."I know, right? I'm like bro, what's your problem? And then he says goodnight and leaves just like that." I explain with my hands."Did you at least make use of your vibrater after that traumatic experience?" Myra rests her head on Izzy's shoulder."And fantasize about him while I'm at it? No way in hell, he's officially dead to me." I declare in a dramatic tone."Yeah, so, that's gonna be a little hard." Myra bites her teeth."No, it's not." I shake my head, still pacing."Nah, I mean, I invited him over for lunch, he said he'd... show." She whispers the last part."Fuck me." I sta
Tangled Love Chapter 20: Hall creek river
Three years ago.Jace's POV.Hallcreek River is all about business, it's neat and nice hence why it's considered a tourist attraction.My Mum's pizzeria is one of the many restaurants lined up at Hallcreek River but it's nothing fancy, it's simple and loud and Mum sets up a stage outside the restaurant on Sundays so random talented people can perform infront of a crowd.My Mum lets my siblings and I work at the restaurant on weekends, I hate every moment of it, not because I don't wanna help out but because of all the stares and flirting I receive from some of the customers.I won't lie, I really used to like the attention but now it's just upsetting.Diego and I set up the stage outside earlier but it started raining so I guess no one is performing tonight.I haven't thought about the talk I had with Olivia, I like how the conversation ended.I have a feeling she won't actually break up with her boyfriend but maybe that's a good thing, but then again if she does end up doing it then.
Tangled Love Chapter 21: Antidote.
Three years ago.Jace's POV.Olivia drank three beers and started stuttering and giggling.Beer doesn't do it for me so I got myself something stronger, the bench got really cold so we moved to the back of Diego's car.Olivia is telling me a story about the first time she talked to Diego while I'm taking large gulps from the liquor bottle in my hand and studying every movement she's making.We had that moment, the moment where we told each other our big, darkest fears then she told me she broke up with her boyfriend.I don't know what we are doing right about now but I don't care, this is worth it, she's worth it.Like on instinct, I bring my hand to her ponytail, pulling the scrunchie and releasing her hair.She stops talking because of it, I slip the scrunchie on my wrist, taking another long sip, "Continue." She rakes her fingers through her hair and and shakes her head at me with an amused smile."Why didn't you tell me we had met before? At that costume party last year?" I final
Tangled Love Chapter 22: The aftermath.
Three years ago.Jace's POV.I'm locked inside Olivia's bathroom, my eyes haven't left my reflection in the mirror and a part of me wants to punch through the glass. I don't know what I'm doing in here, I should be on my way home.I decided to come in here right after she told me it was her first time, I mean, I don't get it, she told me her boyfriend was her first time but even if she hadn't, why wouldn't she just tell me the goddamn truth?Breaking someone's virginity isn't something I do on a Sunday night, there's a reason why I don't associate with virgins, the last virgin I was with was Sandra and that was my first time too and it was absolutely stressful, I thought I was hurting her the entire time regardless of her constantly telling me she was fine.And because I didn't know Liv was a virgin, I went at her like an animal thinking that she...... Hell, I can't even bring myself to say it."Fuck, fuck, fuck." I rub the side of my face, guilt swimming in the pit of my chest, killi
Tangled Love Chapter 23: Crave.
Present Day.Olivia's POV.Ryder.Ryder.Ryder.Ryder.That name keeps whispering itself in my ear over and over again, not because I'm drunk, no, I had two bottles of beer and then I stopped drinking cause I didn't feel like swallowing anything, I felt like vomiting, I was so sick with myself.Literally.I walk back to my apartment building in the rain, it's kinda funny how people will look at you when you walk casually while it's raining.I'm not depressed, people, I promise.I push through the heavy doors of the building, sighing at the sight of the stairs, I start climbing them, one step at a time.I'm soaking wet, my chest hurts so bad and thoughts about my past self won't leave me the hell alone.I reach my apartment door, turning the knob and slamming my body against the door but it doesn't budge, I check underneath the mat for the spare key but I don't find it."You've got to be fucking shitting me." I grit out.I hear the door behind me open and I rest my forehead against my
Tangled Love Chapter 24: Crazy.
Three years ago.Jace's POV.It's been a week since the incident with Olivia happened, we haven't talked or crossed paths since then, I mean I did see her from a distance at school and I caught her staring at me in the cafeteria on Wednesday but that was it.She probably thinks I lost interest after... That night but that's not the case, I just don't know how to look into her eyes after what happened, it was too brutal."Hey, man, Angelo says you need to show your ass at the races one of these days." Diego snaps me out of my thoughts, passing me an opened bottle of beer.Blair wanted to meet both of us at the drive-in cinema, she was being pretty mysterious about it but my guess is, she likes it when I third wheel."I need to fix those brakes first." I take the beer from his hand, swinging a sip, most of the people here are watching the movie from inside their cars but Diego and I are outside, leaning against the hood of his car and drinking the beer he stole from his Mum's new boyfri
Tangled Love Chapter 25: Bail.
Three years ago.Jace's POV.I don't regret doing what I did.I did it for Cass, I fucked with a one point nine million dollar car for Cassandra Richardson and I'm not even shaken by it, let alone regret it.I've thought about her since I got locked in here, I don't think I've realized it but Cass and I have a lot in common, she understands me more than I understand myself and we haven't even known each other for that long.But the question still stands, where does that leave Olivia?Things with Olivia are too complicated, it wouldn't be like that with Cass, we'd just fuck and smoke weed all day every day.But at the same time, I know how toxic that would turn out and I don't need another one of those.I sigh, turning my head to where Diego is singing his ass off.Jail is hell.Hearing Diego sing while we're in jail is worse than hell.I'm laying on the cold metal bench, Diego is standing by the jail bars, singing, the guy that was thrown in here after us last night is passed out on t
