Lahat ng Kabanata ng Trapped Together : Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 16

Jake watched as Rachel glanced downward and he knew what she was seeing. But he had no urge to stop or deny it. Those images that flashed through his mind when she was talking were hot as fuck and she knew that. He knew her well enough that she was having problems just like he was. He wouldn’t dare be the ass and let her think she was alone in that department, wanting something that she couldn’t have. So, he gathered up his wits and walked over, knowing what she was doing. Fuck, he even agreed with her, the coldness was bound to help the fire and flames right? Or maybe not given that it was worse knowing she was in the same fucking boat. His hand reached out and cupped her cheek, his thumb running along her cheekbone. Of all the ladies he laid eyes on, this one before him was the one he always found the most beautiful and enchanting, and she didn’t try. That was one of the best features about her.

The time between them without talking never led to anything good. “Hey,” he softly said as he grabbed her arm lightly and drew her near. “Talk to

Jake’s eyes were watching the flickering flames, but he felt her the moment she stepped into the living room, and he refrained from looking back at her. He had to keep to his mindset, no matter how hard it would be. And he knew himself; it was going to be hard.

She had walked to the window and was watching the snow closest to the window falling down. Not that one could see much of it anyway, but it had gotten so dark. “Yeah, which is why I thought it best to get the fire going.” Jake knew he should say anything to feel the void, but he didn’t know what.
