Chapter 19
Jake paced up and down the lounge, tutting with each smirk or wink that Amber threw his way. Luke and Martha were due home within the next half hour, and Jake was panicking at the prospect.
“He’ll kick my head in,” Jake muttered.
“No he won’t.” Amber stood up and stopped Jake in his tracks, placing her hands on his shoulders. “But, if you really don’t want to tell him, we don’t have to.”
Jake shook his head. “No Freckles, we need to tell him, but I have to admit I’m shitting myself.”
Amber pulled Jake into her arms and hugged him. The last few weeks with him had been magical and although neither of them had said as much, their feelings for each other had moved to another level. Amber though, was still wary of committing totally to Jake; still scared that he’d wake up one day and realise that having sex with lots of different women was preferable to monogamy. Jake, however, couldn’t think of anything worse than going back to his old life of a different woman every night.
“Look,” Amber said as Jake pushed out of her arms and continued pacing. “Let’s not tell him the minute he walks through the door, give him time to settle in first.”
Jake turned to face Amber, his eyes narrowed. “Don’t you want to tell him?” he asked. “Are you chickening out?”
Amber shook her head. “God no. I think we should tell him, but we should maybe do it over dinner.”
Jake laughed. “Fuck, we’re grown adults. Why the hell are we so scared of telling Luke bloody Mahoney that we’re in a relationship?”
Amber smiled, realising the ridiculousness of the situation.
“I don’t know,” she replied. “It’s not like he’s my brother, or my dad. He’s only my cousin.”
“Yeah, I know. But, I care what he thinks,” Jake replied hugging Amber to him. “He’s one of my best friends, and I don’t want anything to spoil that.”
“Jake, don’t be silly. Whatever happens between me and you is exactly that, between me and you.” Amber tilted her had back to look up at Jake. “I know he’s protective of me, of all his family. He has been ever since Dad died, but he’s a big softy underneath it all.”
“You’re right,” Jake cried. “If we want to be together, then who is he to tell us otherwise?”
“Well I hope you mean that Jake,” Amber said, moving over to the window. “Because they’re back.”
“Oh shit!”
