Chapter 8 - Alex
Three months laterâ¦
The past few months had been a whirlwind of traveling and nights filled with crazy, breathless sex.
After leaving Ireland, we relocated to Switzerland, then traveled to India, and for the last few weeks, New York.
Brock and I shared our deepest secrets, all of our hopes and dreams. I told him about my mother and my loveless upbringing, and he told me about growing up in a trailer. There had been tough times financially, but his parents did all they could to make his childhood a happy one and had always supported his dreams.
The L-word was something I tried not to think about. As much as I wanted to fight my feelings, Iâd fallen hard, but every day, I chanted, âThis is just a fling. This is just a fling.â
At night, either I snuck into his room, or he snuck into mine. If anyone suspected we were together, they said nothing, but I occasionally noticed raised eyebrows whenever people saw us together.
All professionalism had flown out of the window. I was no longer Brockâs babysitter, but I wasnât his girlfriend either. I didnât consider myself his fuck buddy. If I had to describe myself as anything, I was a friend with benefitsâlots of sweaty, noisy, orgasm-filled benefits.
Not once since our time at the cottage had Brock stepped out of line or questioned what I asked him to do for work. I couldnât say Iâd tamed himâsomeone like Brock could never and would never be tamed. Besides, his rough edges and unpredictability left him irresistible.
On our way to the hotel in the SUV, his head flopped back against the headrest. Weâd been on set for eighteen punishing hours, and the need for sleep weighed heavily on our bones. Between takes, heâd grabbed a few cat naps. More than once, heâd asked me to go back to the R.V. with him, but Iâd declined. He needed to rest.
Ford Linder had vanished, and no one knew where heâd gone. Noah and Anton had told the cast and crew not to worry, that they were on top of it. His disappearance meant the script had to be rewritten overnight, and that meant more work for Brock.
He reached out and placed a hand on my knee. âReady to tuck me in?â
I shook my head. âYouâre going to your room. Iâm going to mine. You have another long day coming.â
âSpoilsport.â The movie star sounded dog-tired. âWhen this is over, weâre going to go back to the cottage in Wicklow, and weâre never leaving.â
I smiled softly. âAs delightful as that sounds, I have a business to run in London. Why donât you come back with me for a while? I could show you all of my favorite places.â
âMaybe.â
My heart deflated, and I couldnât help but feel sad at his lack of enthusiasm. I had hoped he would have said yes. I hadnât been expecting maybe.
His reply told me that after this movie wrapped, my time with him would officially be over. That was
