When Love just happens - S01 E33

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 33

Jeffery just finished having a shower and was going through some documents he brought back from the office when he heard a knock on his door. At first he thought he didn’t hear correctly so he listened and heard the soft knock on the door again, there were just two of them in the house so it must definitely be Jane, he stood up to open the door and saw her standing there.

“Having trouble sleeping?”

Jane nodded in response. “Do you mind if I sleep here?”

“Of course not, come in” Jeffery opened the door wider for her to come in. He went to the bed and moved his laptop and documents to create space for her.

“I’m sorry I didn’t mean to be a bother”

“Shh…. You are not a bother, you know I don’t mind having you in my bed”

Jane took a step backward.

“Oh no no that’s not what I meant, I actually meant ..”

“It’s fine Jeffery I understand what you meant” Jane replied smiling causing Jeffrey to smile too.

Jane climbed on the bed and laid down, Jeffery decided to leave the office work for the office and joined her in bed holding her in a spoon position.

“Your nightmares are back?”

“Yes”

“How long ago?”

“Two nights now”

“We will find a solution to it okay” he kissed her temple.

Jane turned to face him, she placed her left palm on his face. The room was a bit dark save for the dim light coming in through the window from outside, so she couldn’t make out his face properly. She used her finger to trace his lips, they were soft, she kept toying with his lips and every other thing on his face, when Jeffery couldn’t take it anymore, he held her hand.

“You’re inviting trouble, don’t start a fire you can’t quench”

“and who says I can’t quench it?” Jane leaned in and kissed him on his lips and before she could withdraw, Jeffery possessed her lips exploring her mouth with his tongue. What started out as a soft kiss transgressed into a wild passionate kiss.

Jane’s hands on their own accord started to explore Jeffery’s body under his shirt, when she couldn’t take it anymore she tugged at the shirt to be taken off.

“Easy love I’m not running”. He helped her take off his shirt. A gasp escaped Jane’s mouth when she felt his broad chest with her hands. It was as if she couldn’t have enough of him, she placed her lips on his n----e giving it a soft bite.

“Oh baby” Jeffery groaned in pleasure, he caressed her hair, removing her scarf in the process. He dropped feathery kisses on her neck and collar bone. Jane dropped her head to the back, moaning in pleasure, giving him more access, he then untied her coat, she was left wearing just the inner gown.

Jeffery could see her nipples hardened through the fabric. He placed his hands under her gown and just then, Jane pushed him to lie on the bed, and she climbed on him in a straddle position. She bent and kissed him aggressively, at first Jeffery was enjoying it, he was fascinated that his calm Jane could be wild too but then something didn’t seem quite right so he stopped her as she was about to take off her gown.

“Stop” he held her hands.

Jane looking confused, stilled. “what is it, don’t you want me?” She asked in fear. Jeffery sat up and rested his back on the head board of the bed.

“I want you baby, I want you more than you know”

“Then what is it? Why did you stop me?” She asked with a shaky voice.

Jeffery could see she was scared of something, he drew her in and placed her head on his chest. “What is it baby? You look scared to death” Jane said nothing, she just kept still as he caressed her hair.

“Baby?” He raised her head from his chest, he could see she was fighting back tears. “Shhhh…. You don’t have to cry” he kissed her on her forehead, then the tip of her nose and lips. He held her face in his hands staring into her eyes. Jane fearing he could see into her intentions looked away.

“What did we say about voicing out our fears to each other?”

“I’m sorry” Jane replied looking down. “I didn’t want you to think being with me was boring”

“Where in heaven’s name did that come from? Who said I ever saw being with you as boring?”

Jeffery tried figuring out what she just said but couldn’t come to terms with it, how she came up with such a thing he couldn’t comprehend. Then it hit him, someone must have called her boring. Probably from her previous relationship.

“Did anyone ever tell you that?”

In response she nodded.

“Who? Was it your ex boyfriend?”

“Yes, when he found out sex was off the table in our relationship, he called me boring and frigid and then broke it off”

Hearing her say those words broke Jeffery’s heart and he wanted to go look for that loser excuse of a man and break every one of his ribs with punches. “Oh baby, he is the boring one and didn’t deserve you, for he wanted your body and nothing more. You’re not frigid in fact with the skills you just showed a while ago, I’m afraid I have to up my game if I’m to keep up with you” This brought a smile to Jane’s face, making her cheek hot.

“Thanks, how were you able to tell?”

“You mean knowing you weren’t ready to have sex?”

Jane nodded.

“Jane, I might want to lay you down right now and make love to you all night but that doesn’t mean I’m insensitive. I could see right through you”.

”I’m sorry”

”you don’t have to apologize, you are not ready and that’s fine, I’m ready whenever you are, is that not what relationship is about? Compromises”

”I love you Jeff”

”What did you just say?” Jeffery asked with so much shock in his voice, Jane realizing the words that just slipped out of her mouth, tried changing the subject but Jeffery was not having any of it.

”Babe do you mind repeating yourself? Please say it again, please?”

”okay fine, I said I love you”

”and I love you too my sweet sugar”

They say when you go to bed feeling happy, you will wake up even happier. This was Jane’s state when she woke up the next morning in a spooning position in bed with Jeffery. She couldn’t help but think herself lucky for having such an understanding and caring man in her life. She admired his handsome profile as he slept, using her hand to trail along his beard. It was 6am already and he was clearly not ready to wake up just yet. So Jane decided to go prepare breakfast for both of them before they left for work.

She opened the fridge and found some eggs and some fresh tomatoes alongside some pepper, so she decided to prepare egg and tomato scramble. She was happily singing to herself as she prepared breakfast that she didn’t hear Jeffery come into the kitchen. He wrapped his arms around her and pressed a kiss on her neck. This caused Jane to shriek from shock which was immediately replaced with pleasure moans from the kisses he dropped on her neck.

”I woke up to an empty bed”

”I uhmm… I thought I would uhmm….make.. oh Jeff” he kept teasing her with kisses and using his right hand to trail the bare of her skin. This caused Jane to burst into giggles.

“Jeff.. St..op” he didn’t stop, instead he nibbled on her earlobe, causing Jane to giggle even more “oh…. Je..ff stop”

“Someone is a little ticklish huh?” The moment he spoke, Jane regretted asking him to stop for she now yearned for his lips to be used on her skin instead of talking.

“Yeah I am, good morning”

Jeffery turned her around and kissed her passionately. “Good morning beautiful, trust you slept well?”

“Hmmm” was Jane’s only response as she seems to have lost her voice after the kiss they just shared. They kept staring at each other, no words were exchanged between them.

“Do you need help with that?” Jeffery asked pointing to the forgotten eggs Jane was cracking just before he walked into the kitchen. His question snapped her back to reality. “Uhmm… No I’m just making egg and tomato scramble nothing much, do like scrambled eggs?”

“I would eat anything you give to me honey” he dropped a kiss on her forehead and then turned to get himself some water to drink from the fridge while Jane continued to crack open the remaining eggs.

Jeffery took a long swig of his water before placing the bottle down on the kitchen island. “You know what’s so romantic?” He asked as he watched her turn on the gas cooker to start preparing the eggs.

“What?”

“The sight of you preparing breakfast in my kitchen first thing in the morning, this sight is heavenly” he said with a smile on his face.

“Hmmm, you do have a lovely kitchen” was Jane’s only response.

”and I even have a lovelier girlfriend” he kissed her, looking lovingly into her beautiful eyes. They stood both lost in each others eyes.

”babe?”

”yes Jeff?” Jane replied closing her eyes and stretching her neck, hoping to be kissed.

”the egg is burning”

And that was all Jane needed to be snapped back to reality, she quickly turned off the gas, luckily the egg wasn’t badly burnt.

”all thanks to you” she muttered under her breath.

”I wasn’t the one begging to be kissed”

”No I wasn’t begging you to kiss me” she scooped out the egg from the frying pan into two different plate.

”Oh really? Tell me you don’t want me to kiss you right now?” he asked daring her to deny the obvious.

”ehmmmmm….”

”yes babe go on, I’m waiting for your reply” he said licking his lips which weakened Jane even more.

”let’s…. emmmm…. eat”

”are you sure? You know I’m a benevolent guy, not one to be stingy with kisses” he walked closer as he spoke, trapping Jane between the wall.

”I wasn’t …emmmm…. I wasn’t…”

”you weren’t what babe?”

”Jeff… please stop torturing me and let’s eat” Jane begged.

”Okay, anything you say baby girl”

Few minutes after they were done having breakfast on the kitchen island and talking about everything from politics to business and doing things which made them ate longer than necessary, Jeffery was finally doing the dishes, while Jane cleaned out the kitchen counter when Mr. Solomon Jeffery’s driver came bursting in through the kitchen door.

“Solomon are you okay, why did you just barge in the way you did?” Jeffery demanded not quite happy to be interrupted.

“I’m sorry sir, ma’am” he said acknowledging Jane and then proceeded to give Jeffery his phone.

”what am I supposed to do with your phone Solomon?” Jeffery demanded still not understanding his driver’s unannounced visit.

“your sister is on the phone sir, she requested I gave you the phone as she has been trying to reach you but you aren’t picking up, she says it’s an emergency sir”

Jeffery had left his phone upstairs as he didn’t want to be distracted from the little time he had to spend with Jane. As he took the phone from Solomon he wondered what the emergency could be.

“Hello?”

“Jeff finally, where have you been? I have been trying to call you all morning”

“Sorry I left my phone upstairs and I’m in the kitchen, what’s up are you fine, is Jonathan fine?” he asked a bit panicked.

“You haven’t seen it, have you?”

Sometimes he wonders who is worse in making him tense whenever they had something urgent to deliver, his mother or his sister?. His sister is definitely his mother’s apprentice for she is beginning to measure up with their mother in that department.

“Seen what? Sis what are you talking about?”

“The tabloids of course?”

“No I haven’t, I woke up not quite long ago and decided to have breakfast first before any other thing. What’s up with the tabloids?”

“She has really changed you, hasn’t she? Is she there with you?”

“Are you going to tell me what you are talking about or do I just end this call and check for myself because this suspense is killing me”

He turned to look at Jane who had a panicked look on her face, he used a hand to draw her close him.

“You and Jane’s pictures are splashed all over the tabloids and blogs”

“What?” Why?”

“Well someone must have been following you both around as they have pictures of you both together at different times, with different captions. I think you should check and see for yourself”

Jeffery didn’t even wait for her to finish before he ended the call and ran upstairs to get his phone, Jane ran after him asking what the problem was. When he checked his phone he had gotten several missed calls from his secretary, parents, sister and some were from numbers he couldn’t recognize. Jane’s phone was ringing off the hook as well.

When he logged on to the internet, he saw pictures of him and Jane all over different blogs with different captions. Some indicating they were in love, others calling Jane a gold digger who just landed a gold mine. He saw red, he could take anything but being disrespectful to Jane was what he wouldn’t take. When he turned to look at her she was already on the phone with someone he assumed to be Amaka from the way she answered.

“Babe you are a celeb now” Amaka said gleefully from the other side of the line. “How do you mean?” Jane asked confused.

“You are all over the blogs, everyone is talking about your relationship with Jeffery, omor you guys might just have to adopt me because you are popular..”

“Are you serious? How did they get to know? No one knows about our relationship save for you and his family”

“Well a journalist must have seen you out together for there are several pictures of you both together at different places”

Jane started to shake, if what Amaka was saying was true, then she was done for, the last thing she wanted was for her relationship with Jeffery to go public and have her life out in the open, this could ruin her trying to hide from the Okafors. She quickly ended the call and searched for one of the leading blogs on her phone, shockingly; her and Jeffery’s pictures made the headline. There were pictures of both of them at the beach on his birthday, even at the boutique when he insisted she tried on a dress, there was a picture of Jeffery holding her and looking lovely into her eyes. Pictures of them leaving Jeffery’s office together and both of them sharing a kiss at the restaurant last night.

Jeffery noticed she was shaking so he quickly rushed to her side and took the phone from her and led her to sit on the bed. She was hyperventilating, so Jeffery loosen the knot of her gown, and gave her water from the night stand.

“Here have some water” he raised it to her lips, she took a few sips before he brought it down.

“baby I need you to calm down please, I promise to have this sorted out in no time” there was no response she just kept moping.

“baby please say something”

“I’m finished” she said sobbing

“No you are not, I’m going to handle this I promise”.

“No you don’t understand, with my pictures all over the net, the Okafors are going to find me and in no time get to me”

“Not if I can help it”

Who the f**k has been lurking around my couple? Just when she’s happy another scene happens! I hope her past won’t haunt her quickly.

Not only would the okafors come for her, but so will Katherine, that girl will so stress her out. Then I wonder what’s Vivian’s reaction would be like. Oh shit
