Epilogue: Where Are They Now?
After leaving the twins' birthday party, Matt and Kaylynn rushed to the hospital. While her labor lasted longer than she would have liked, Kaylynn gave birth to a healthy baby girl without any complications.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Needless to say, Matt and Kaylynn were thrilled to finally meet their daughter. Welcome to the family, Lila Mae DiMarco!
The End...for now! I had a lot of fun telling this story and I hope you enjoyed it! If you did, the DiMarcos will be appearing in the next chapter of main story Safe Harbor. Here's what they've been up to:
Tumblr media
The twins are walking now and keep Lucy and Christopher on their toes. The couple is still able to spend a lot of time at home with the boys and with each other. Lucy began her new position at Sunny Side Productions and has been working alongside Damien to create more content. They're beginning the process of adding more members to the team soon.
Tumblr media
After spending a couple of months at home with baby Lila, Kaylynn began her journey as an event planner. She started off with a few small birthday parties that went successfully. Through networking, she has been able to gain more clientele while still spending lots of time at home with Lila. Matt has continued his schooling and still works as a Vet Tech. He’s intent on being the Best Dad Ever and can’t wait to have more kids. Well, he’ll probably wait until he’s at least finished with undergrad. 
Tumblr media
Paul is still at Foxbury but moved out of the dorms and into an apartment that he shares with his BFF Danica. Their friends Wesley and Nasir live nearby. Now that he's out to his family, they're closer than ever. He and Lucy are especially close and spend a lot of time together when Paul has breaks from school. He's still single and loving it. He's keeping things casual right now, but being open about himself has made him more hopeful that there's a special someone out there for him when he's ready.

Episode 24: Shared Interest
Tumblr media
Time didn’t ease the tension between Morgana and Jamie; in fact, it only grew until Jamie’s friendship with Thornton began to suffer as well. Paul was initially relieved; maybe some time away from Thornton would make it easier for his relationship with Jamie to develop.
Unfortunately, it was hard for him to ignore how affected she was by the rift. Paul would have felt guilty for celebrating the demise of their friendship given the pain it caused Jamie, but deep down he knew this wasn’t about friendship.
Tumblr media
One evening he saw Thornton and Jamie having a heated argument followed by them retreating to Thornton’s dorm room.
Paul watched the door expectantly, waiting for them to emerge. After several minutes, the door finally flew open and they retreated in opposite directions without saying a word.
Jamie made a beeline for Paul. “Let’s go to your room,” she suggested and he followed suit.
Tumblr media
Once in Paul’s room, Jamie sat on his bed expectantly. As he moved in closer, Paul immediately knew that something physical had happened between Jamie and Thornton moments earlier.
Tumblr media
The smell of Thornton’s cologne, some designer fragrance that Paul didn’t know the name of but had become all too familiar, was all over her. He knew he should have felt jealous by this revelation and he did, a bit. But that feeling was soon overpowered by another emotion.
He let his mind wander to the place he usually kept buried. He couldn't stop thinking about what might've happened in that room, who touched who and where.
Tumblr media
“He’s all over you.” He hadn’t mean to say it, but his words were now hanging in the air, unable to be ignored.
Jamie pulled away. “I’m sorry,” she began. “But we’re not exclusive, so I didn’t think–” Paul cut her off. “I like it,” he said...
The rest of this post is too spicy for Tumblr! You can read the rest on my pillowfort.

Episode 30: Coming Clean
If Paul was planning to test the waters about coming out, it seemed that talking to Jamie was the best start. After their awkward encounter which revealed their shared attraction to Thornton, they still hadn’t properly talked about it.
Tumblr media
Paul began by asking her what happened between her and Thornton that night–aside from the dirty version she’d already told him about. He made it clear that he was asking without judgment and that there were no hard feelings. After all, she was right that they never defined their relationship.
Tumblr media
She said she was upset with Thornton that night and confronted him. She didn’t think it was right for him to cut her off like that because of Morgana’s insecurities. After some back and forth about it, Thornton and Jamie both admitted to having feelings for each other. Things started to get physical, but Thornton stopped and said he couldn’t continue. That was when Jamie stormed off and found Paul.
Tumblr media
She apologized for using Paul to deal with her feelings about Thornton, but Paul supposed he was doing the same thing that night. “If you didn’t already figure it out, I’m bisexual,” he confessed, feeling a bit lighter now that he’d shared the truth with someone else.
Tumblr media
Jamie sensed the weight he’d been carrying and warmly embraced him. She assured him that she didn’t feel any differently about him and supported him 100%. Paul was appreciative, but pointed out that the bigger issue at hand was her feelings for another man. Jamie sighed. “I wish I didn’t want him, but I do,” she said, her eyes brimming with tears.
Tumblr media
“I guess I could say the same,” Paul quipped, and they both laughed at the awkwardness of the situation. It felt good to share a laugh with someone over something that had caused him such turmoil.
Tumblr media
Ultimately, Paul and Jamie agreed that there were too many outside factors at play for them to continue their romantic relationship and decided to just be friends.
After Jamie left, Danica and Wesley came to check in with Paul. They'd picked up on the tension between him and Jamie and were wondering if everything was okay with them.
Tumblr media
Without getting into all of the details, Paul told his friends that he and Jamie decided they were better as friends. He also took the opportunity to come out to them. They both apologized for the hurtful comments they'd made in the past and promised to be more supportive.
Paul ended the day feeling as though a weight had been lifted from his shoulders. He was finally experiencing the acceptance he'd craved for so long. He just hoped coming out to his family would be this easy.

Episode 29: Bright Ideas
Tumblr media
Lucy followed Damien to his office, unsure of what to expect. “So, we finally meet!” He was cheerful and upbeat, not quite what Lucy was anticipating when she envisioned their first meeting. She sort of thought he’d be cloaked in the shadows, speaking in riddles with a hushed voice. But standing before her now, he was warm and friendly, which eased her worries about their impromptu meeting.
Tumblr media
“Yes, I’m glad we’re finally having a conversation!” she told him.
“I would like to apologize for that,” he stated sympathetically. “I know I haven’t been leading things here the way I should, and I owe you an explanation.” He paused and cleared his throat.
Tumblr media
“A few months ago, I basically cleared out upper management. They knew the ins and outs of the business side of things, and that helped me grow Rainy Day to where it is today. But they didn’t understand the people. I’ve been wanting to tap into the creativity of our team and explore new ideas for a while now, but after losing my mom earlier this year I had to step back.” Lucy could see the pain in Damien’s eyes as he spoke about his loss.
Tumblr media
“I’m sorry to hear that. I can understand why you’d need to take some time away,” she told him.
Damien thanked her. “It has helped, but I wish I had been around more to facilitate all of the changes. Then again, it seems everyone is doing a great job without my interference.”
Lucy was relieved to finally get some feedback about how things were going. “So you’re happy with everything?” she asked expectantly.
Tumblr media
“Indeed I am. Everything went exactly as I’d hoped. I guess I found the right person for the job.” He smiled at Lucy with a little wink. 
“Oh, well I can’t take credit for our success,” she admitted. “We’ve got a great group of people here. They’re the ones who’ve really put in the work.”
“They are a talented group, that’s for sure,” he agreed. “But in order to really tap into that talent, I needed someone who could look at this group and see all the nuances: their strengths and their weaknesses, their chemistry with other people, how they work the best. That someone was you.”
Tumblr media
Lucy was flattered but unsure if she was deserving of all of Damien’s praise. “Anyone could have done that,” she countered.
“Anyone could have. But no one did. That is, until you came along. That’s why you’re different.” Lucy thanked him for his faith in her, but she was still hesitant to take too much credit.
Tumblr media
Damien promised her he would be more hands on going forward. “I’ve been hiding for too long. I think it’s time for me to become a part of the team,” he told her, his face lighting up.
Tumblr media
“Welcome to the Sunny Side!” Lucy smiled, glad to finally have Damien's support.

Episode 33: New Ventures
Tumblr media
Seth and Reese were finally turning one and the DiMarcos were ready to celebrate! Lucy and Christopher couldn't believe their boys were growing so fast. It seemed like just yesterday that they were preparing to bring them home. Now they were beginning to walk and talk.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Lucy was thrilled with the wonderful job Kaylynn had done putting the party together. As she’d requested, it wasn’t too over the top but everything looked great and ran smoothly.
Tumblr media
The food truck arrived just in time to feed their hungry guests, and there were plenty of age-appropriate activities for the kids to enjoy while the adults mingled.
Tumblr media
Everyone was having a great time, and Kaylynn seemed to be quite proud of what she pulled off.
“You should do this for a living,” Lucy told her. Kaylynn laughed it off. “No, I’m serious,” Lucy continued. “Maybe not just kids’ birthday parties, but anniversary parties or even weddings.”
Tumblr media
Lucy pointed out all of the connections Kaylynn had around the community, how skilled she was at planning things, and most importantly, how much she enjoyed helping out other people.
Tumblr media
Kaylynn’s eyes grew wide.
“You’re totally right!” she exclaimed. “I loved putting this all together, and if I become an event planner, I can have some control over when and how often I work.” She thanked Lucy and went to find Matt to tell him about Lucy's great idea.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Later the boys had their birthday cupcakes and got more on their faces than in their mouths. They had so much fun that they passed out in their high chairs when they finished.
Tumblr media
After Lucy and Christopher got the boys all cleaned up, Lucy spotted Damien walking toward her. She’d extended an invitation to her boss but hadn’t expected him to actually show.
She introduced him to Christopher and the boys and before long, the conversation predictably turned to work.
Tumblr media
Damien told Lucy that seeing the new projects being developed and how they’d been received had reignited his passion for the company.
“I’ve had a lot of ideas about how I want to continue with the expansion of the company,” he said. “But I’d be remiss not to get your input given the work you’ve put in so far. Are you interested in becoming the Coordinating Producer for my new production company?" He was quick to assure her that the promotion would come with a pay increase.
Tumblr media
Lucy couldn’t turn down a challenge, especially if it meant some actual collaboration with someone as accomplished as Damien. She was happy to accept the offer, but she asked for one small favor.
"Can I hire an assistant?"
Tumblr media
Damien was happy to oblige her request, but he had one more surprise in store for her.
"I think I found the perfect name for the production company, but I wanted to get the okay from you first. How do you feel about Sunny Side Productions?"
Tumblr media
Lucy was thrilled with the idea. They both felt the moniker was perfect for the new venture. They had just began discussing adding new members to the team before they were interrupted by Matt and Kaylynn.
Tumblr media
“Sorry to leave so soon, but–” Kaylynn began.
Matt interrupted her by shouting, “IT’S BABY TIME! WOO!”
Kaylynn smiled and continued, “My water just broke.”  Lucy promised she’d forgive them for dipping out early to bring a new life into the world.

Episode 32: Big Moments
The last few months of Paul's freshman year at Foxbury were a time of self-discovery and authenticity.
Tumblr media
After he’d broken things off with Jamie, Paul felt free to start exploring his sexuality. He started thinking about how motivated he’d been at the beginning of the year to find someone to settle down with. Now he realized he needed to get to know himself better before he committed himself to one person.
Tumblr media
As for Thornton, Paul got over that crush pretty quickly and he was glad to no longer be involved in the drama between Thornton, Morgana, and Jamie which seemed to never end. He remained casually friendly with them, but he mostly hung around with Danica, Wesley, and Nasir.
Tumblr media
He also started getting to know Deshawn a little better, who it turned out was crushing on him in high school as well. But getting to know himself wasn't the only thing he wanted to do that year. He also wanted to come out to his family.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Paul was relieved to find out that everyone in his family was accepting of his bisexuality. Having the support of his friends and family made their bonds grow stronger. He was grateful to approach his sophomore year without the burden of being closeted holding him down.

Episode 21: Elemental Forces
Tumblr media
As Paul began to spend more time with Jamie, Thornton, and Morgana he began to notice some uncomfortable dynamics between the three of them.
It was already blatantly apparent that Thornton and Morgana were not on the same page about commitment, and as more time passed tension began to develop between Morgana and Jamie as well.
Anytime Thornton and Jamie started to interact, Morgana would interject and try to steer her boyfriend’s attention back to her.
Tumblr media
Sometimes she would even make backhanded remarks about Jamie which didn’t go unnoticed. Jamie would jump to defend herself and Thornton would be caught in the middle, with Paul awkwardly watching the situation unfold.
It was clear Morgana was insecure about her relationship and was taking it out on Jamie, but Paul couldn’t help but wonder if there was a grain of truth to her concerns.
Tumblr media
Thornton and Jamie were awfully close and seemed to connect in a way that made his incompatibilities with Morgana even more apparent.
Paul wondered if Thornton was the reason why Jamie didn’t seem interested in making things official. Despite the tension of the situation, he did find it all a bit amusing. These two beautiful women were at odds over Thornton Wolff of all people.
Tumblr media
As Paul studied Thornton, he wondered why he was worth all of the fuss. He was arrogant, self-centered, and boastful; not exactly the traits a woman should want in a mate. Sure, he had some positive characteristics as well.
He oozed confidence; Paul doubted Thornton had ever felt insecure or self-conscious in his life. How could he, with his chiseled jaw and broad shoulders? Even dressed in a thick sweater, it was obvious Thorton worked out.
Tumblr media
As Paul started to envision Thorton in a sleeveless shirt with his muscular arms on full display, his body suddenly felt flushed. He quickly began reciting the Periodic Table of Elements in his head, hoping it would distract him enough to calm his body before anyone else noticed the redness creeping up to his face.
Hydrogen, Helium, Lithium, Beryllium…as he made his way down the list, his body cooled and he let out a sigh of relief.

Episode 27: Little Moments
Throughout his life, Paul had experienced many moments that reinforced his decision to ignore his sexuality. Most only lasted a few seconds--
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Teacher: “Boys don't play with dolls.”
Tumblr media
Students: "Paul is always staring at Deshawn." "I know, what a weirdo!"
-–but the weight of these moments made them feel like they lasted forever. As time passed, society progressed and attitudes changed. In high school, some of his friends, including his crush Deshawn, had even come out as gay. Paul thought he might finally be able to be himself. Yet even when in the company of those who should have been accepting, those little moments continued adding up.
Tumblr media
Deshawn: “I wouldn't date a bisexual guy." Wesley: “They don't know what they want.” Danica: “I think they're just in denial.”
Tumblr media
The seconds turned to minutes and minutes to hours until those small moments added up to a lifetime. A lifetime of avoiding the truth, of pretending. A lifetime of feeling like an outsider, a liar, an empty shell.  
Tumblr media
A lifetime of loneliness. It wasn’t that he wasn’t attracted to women. He knew he wasn’t gay, and for a while it seemed like the easiest solution to feeling unaccepted was to put his attraction to men aside, to store it away in a part of his brain that he would simply choose not to access.
Tumblr media
He thought he could continue to date women and pretend like that side of him didn’t exist. He could still have everything he wanted–a devoted partner to have children with–without having to face the potential of rejection from the rest of society. But it wasn’t true. He could marry a woman that he truly loved, but he would still feel rejected, lonely, and dishonest as long as he continued hiding who he was.
Tumblr media
Paul knew that something had to change. As scary as it was, he couldn’t live the life he dreamed of if he remained in the closet. Paul looked at himself in the mirror and took a deep breath before finally speaking aloud the words he’d been holding in his whole life. “I’m bisexual.” It felt better than he could have imagined.
Tumblr media
Now he just needed the courage to say it to everyone else.

Episode 26: The Sunny Side
Lucy and the rest of the Rainy Day team worked hard over the next few weeks setting up for all of the new changes. They were given a budget for renovations and furnishings, and before long the empty spaces of the new wing began filling up.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
A new workspace was created for the video editors, and the writing area was expanded to include work areas with more privacy. Sets were created for all of their new videos. Their new tabletop RPG series became an instant hit.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The team dubbed the new wing as "The Sunny Side" in honor of the bright future of the company.
Their channel views were going up and media outlets were interested in the new direction the company was beginning to take. There were some naysayers who disliked the changes, but it was overall regarded as a step in the right direction. Lucy and the team were excited about the buzz. Not only were they personally invested in what they were doing, but seeing that others were enjoying it as well made it all the more special.
Tumblr media
Some team members excitedly informed Lucy that their latest video had nearly double the views of the previous video. "That's how we do it on The Sunny Side!" Lucy exclaimed as her coworkers cheered.
Tumblr media
Suddenly the room fell silent. Lucy sensed that she was being approached, and the solemn reaction of the rest of the team lead her to believe that might not be a good thing. She turned hesitantly, half-expecting to see some horrifying creature waiting to gobble her up.
Tumblr media
Instead she saw Damien Major himself, casually standing behind her with a shy smile. She barely had time to gather her thoughts before he spoke. “The Sunny Side, huh?" Lucy mustered a small smile and nodded. "Well, Lucy." Damien continued. "You're just the person I came here to see. Can you come with me please?”
Tumblr media
Lucy gulped and followed him, her coworkers watching in suspense. He seemed friendly, but she had no idea what Damien thought of all the changes made to his company. She supposed she was about to find out.

Episode 20: Major Questions
Tumblr media
As time passed, Lucy still felt perplexed by her job. She knew Damien wanted to expand the company to other forms of digital media, but to what exactly? And why was he leaving those sort of decisions in the hands of a new hire who he hadn’t even met?
Tumblr media
Lucy’s confusion was complicated by the fact that she enjoyed being at Rainy Day. She liked her coworkers and saw a lot of potential in the company. Even with all of the uncertainty about her role, she was still getting paid and it was helping a lot. On the other hand, how could she feel secure in her job when she didn’t even understand what her job was?
Tumblr media
Frustrated, she turned to the internet to do some research on Damien. If no one at work could tell her what his expectations were, maybe she could find out from outside sources.
Tumblr media
Through her searching she discovered that Damien hadn’t always been so reclusive. He gave a lot of interviews in the past that provided more information about the mysterious entrepreneur. She learned that he grew up in San Myshuno, raised by his widowed mother along with his brother. Apparently his mom had quite the avid interest in computers and technology, but it was hard for a woman to make it in a field like that back in those days.
Tumblr media
Now Lucy understood why he was so adamant about hiring women at his company. He wanted to give them the opportunities his mother never had. He also spoke a lot about the lack of representation in the field of anyone who wasn’t a straight, white, cis male.
Tumblr media
Looking at her coworkers, Lucy could see that Damien was trying to amend that. She was finding herself endeared to the man, as infuriated as she was by his lack of leadership. She had to wonder, why her? What was it about Lucy that made him think she of all people should be at the helm of all of these big decisions?
Tumblr media
Suddenly, it dawned on Lucy that maybe that was never his intention. Parker had said that everyone else who was interviewed declined the position, insinuating that they didn’t want all of that responsibility. But what if that wasn’t what the job was at all? Lucy finally realized what she needed to do.

Episode 7: Dating Bad
It was Friday and Paul was ready to have a little fun. He'd set up a profile on a dating app to see if he could meet anyone interesting.
Tumblr media
The first message he got was from a bot--typical. But he was soon able to connect with someone real, a fellow student named Juliana who was free for a casual meet-up that afternoon.
Tumblr media
When Paul arrived at Larry's Lagoon, he was taken by Juliana's beauty. He turned on the charm and flirtatiously complimented her smile.
Tumblr media
Unfortunately, Juliana wasn't receptive to the compliment, leaving them both feeling a bit awkward.
Tumblr media
Moments later, Juliana abruptly excused herself to go to the restroom. Paul sat and thought about how he could recover from his misstep. Perhaps in his impatience in finding love he was coming off a little desperate. He would have to play it more cool.
Tumblr media
Paul decided to wait for Juliana inside the building, but it was taking her a long time to emerge from the bathroom. It was almost as if she were hiding out in there. After waiting a while, he started to wonder if she was planning to return. He grabbed some spaghetti in the cafeteria and ate it sadly, heaving great sighs in between bites of lukewarm sauce and overcooked noodles.
Tumblr media
Finally Juliana returned, and after making small talk, Paul decided to address the elephant in the room. He asked if she was interested in continuing with their date.
Juliana replied, "I'm sorry, you seem great but I just don't think we're a match."
Tumblr media
Paul suggested they get to know each other as friends, and though Juliana agreed, an air of awkwardness continued to hang over their heads. They parted ways with the unspoken understanding that they'd only see each other again in passing.
Tumblr media
When he arrived back at the dorms, Paul had some beers with Danica, Wesley, and Nasir. While Paul wasn't having the best luck in the romance department, the sparks were starting to fly between Nasir and Wesley.
Tumblr media
"Come on, just kiss already!" Danica urged them playfully.
Paul joined in, "Yeah, just do it! What are you waiting for?"
Tumblr media
"Oh, we're going to do more than kiss," Wesley replied, gazing into Nasir's eyes with a suggestive look.
Paul and Danica cheered obnoxiously as Wesley grabbed Nasir's hand and led him into the building.
Tumblr media
Later that night, Paul returned to his dorm room, feeling almost taunted by Nasir's empty bed. He longed for Wesley's unwavering confidence, how he was unapologetically himself at all times and didn't seem to care if others judged him. "I wish I could--NO. STOP." Paul interrupted his own thoughts before That Thing could creep in again and tried his best to drift off to sleep.

Episode 1: Daddy Duty
The life of a fisherman isn't one that follows traditional schedules and routines. Christopher only works a couple of days a week in the early mornings. On a good day when the fish are biting he can pull in a boatload, and those busy days are enough to help his little family stay afloat while Lucy works on building her own career.
The extra days at home have been a big help with the arrival of Seth and Reese. The boys are only a few months old and though they've grown so much, they still require a lot of care and attention. Being a new parent isn't easy, but the Steels have found a nice routine.
Tumblr media
Since he's used to early mornings, Christopher is happy to get up early and attend to the boys for their 3am feedings. He feeds the first to awaken, then the other--with lots of cuddle time in between.
Tumblr media
This is his favorite time of the day, even when Seth is fussy and Reese is impatient for his bottle. He often takes this moment to think of how lucky he is.
Tumblr media
After the boys are fed and happy, they get some floor time while Christopher makes breakfast, giving Lucy time to finish sleeping before starting her work day.
Tumblr media
A good night's sleep is an immeasurable gift to a new mom, one Christopher is grateful he can provide to his hardworking wife.
Tumblr media
Lucy wakes up in time to enjoy her breakfast and help Christopher put the boys down for their morning nap.
Tumblr media
It often takes a little extra time to get Seth soothed enough to fall asleep. Once they're settled down, Lucy is ready to boot up her computer and get to work, but not before thanking her husband for being such a supportive husband and doting father.
Tumblr media
"It's the least I can do for the most wonderful woman I know," he says, pulling Lucy in for a warm embrace.
"I love you, Christopher," Lucy sighs, resting her head on her husband's shoulder.
Tumblr media
"I love you, too."

Episode 12: Spooky Day
Tumblr media
It was Spooky Day and Pepper's Pub was having a party for the holiday. Matt and Kaylynn were excited for a night out with their friends.
Tumblr media
Matt dressed as a cheerleader, the perfect costume for someone with his enthusiasm. Kaylynn put her own spin on the classic Sexy Maid. "Could you imagine if I went to work like this?" she laughed.
Tumblr media
Matt had trouble recognizing some of the party-goers at first. "Who's under the costume?" he inquired of one who was dressed as Darth Maul.
"It's me, Paul!" he exclaimed. "Or I guess you could say, Darth Paul!"
Tumblr media
"Good one, bro!" Paul sometimes had a corny sense of humor, but Matt humored him with a laugh.
Tumblr media
Kaylynn tried her hand at the pumpking carving station.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Everyone had a great time socializing, drinking, and dancing the night away.
Tumblr media
When they arrived home, Kaylynn put her sexy maid outfit to good use. "Oh, Mr. DiMarco, I hope you didn't see up my dress when I was scrubbing the floors. It's just soooo short!"
Tumblr media
"If it's uncomfortable, why don't I help you take it off?"
"But won't your wife be home soon?"
"She's away for business. We have the whole house to ourselves."
Tumblr media
Kaylynn giggled again at the absurdity of such a scenario. Who would have an affair with their housekeeper? It was fun to roleplay for the night, though.

Episode 15: Animalistic Urges
Tumblr media
Paul and Jamie made it to her dorm room filled with nervous energy. "Can you tell me something else in Tartosan?" Jamie asked, her gaze lingering on Paul's lips. This time he was better prepared and told her what had been on his mind all afternoon. "It sounds so romantic," she sighed dreamily, and sauntered closer.
Tumblr media
"Lay with me," she said, and they nestled under the covers. Paul wanted to put his hands all over her, press his lips onto hers and allow his lust to consume them both but he quelled his animalistic urges and softly touched her face instead.
"So, what did you say?" she inquired eagerly.
Tumblr media
"I said 'Your lips look like they are made to be kissed'," he whispered.
"Then you should kiss them."
Tumblr media
Paul gently leaned over her, his lips meeting hers gingerly. Her lip gloss tasted like strawberries and made his lips sticky with sweetness. Jamie clasped his hand and their kisses became more reckless.
Tumblr media
"I've been waiting to kiss you all night." Paul pressed his body into hers and began kissing her neck fervently. She moaned, and he knew she could feel how badly he wanted her.
Tumblr media
"Please tell me you have a condom," Jamie pleaded breathily.
"I have one in my room," he replied and was there and back so quickly that he was certain he'd broken a world record of some kind.
The rest of this is too spicy for tumblr. You can read it on my pillowfort (18+, very spicy!)!

Episode 10: Shadow Work
After his disastrous date with Juliana, Paul's confidence was fading. As much as he wanted to be in a relationship, he was becoming just as motivated by something a little more carnal in nature. Simply put, his hand wasn't quite doing it for him anymore.
Tumblr media
Despite their initial attraction, he and Soraya worked better as friends. She was going through some sort of emotional upheaval that seemed to make romance undesirable to her at the moment.
Tumblr media
Paul's thoughts kept returning to Jamie. They had a lot in common and she at least seemed flirtatious when they spoke. He asked Wesley for his opinion. "Jamie's cool, but she's always hanging around that Thornton jerk," was Wesley's cynical reply. Thornton did have a big ego, but Paul pointed out that Jamie might be seeing another side to him that no one else did. "I don't know," Wesley doubted. "But you do you."
Tumblr media
Paul inquired the same of Danica. "I like Jamie," his friend stated cheerfully. "Normally I would be threatened by another woman who's both beautiful and intelligent, but I'm really trying to challenge my own internalized misogyny." Paul thanked her for her input.
Tumblr media
"You're welcome," replied Danica. "But you should really do some shadow work to figure out why you're so reliant on other people's opinions." Paul promised her he would, silently hoping that her sudden need to psychoanalyze everyone would wear off as the semester continued.

As Paul got more settled in to life in the dorms, he wasted no time in scoping out his prospects for a possible romance. There was Jamie, a fellow Bio student who was also in the Reserve.

She seemed a bit of a party girl, but a little fun might be just what the doctor prescribed. And her lingering glances gave Paul the impression that she was interested in getting to know him better.

Soraya, an Econ major, was a bit more studious and lived an active lifestyle like Paul. Were they too much alike, though? Compatible interests are important in relationships, but Paul also wanted a partner who would challenge him to try new things.

Morgana was another Biology student. Like Paul, she wanted to have it all; a successful career and a family. She responded to Paul’s flirtatiousness in kind, but he soon discovered that she was already in a serious relationship with their dorm mate Thornton. However, Paul wasn’t sure what sweet Morgana saw in her snobbish beau.

Paul was feeling pretty good about himself. He’d already met three beautiful women who seemingly found him attractive. And while it’s possible that none of them would be his perfect match, he at least felt hopeful that someone was out there for him.
He just had to continue making sure he didn’t think about That Thing.
