Page 93 of To Love Jason Thorn

But then, the unthinkable happens. When thecouple is asked to share a kiss for a photo, Jason gives her a peck! A peck,people! The handsome star, who is known for his sexual prowess, who we’ve seendevour numerous women on the big screen, gives Miss Taylor only a peck! And thefunny thing is you can see the disappointment on her face so clearly.

We were definitely expecting a much more heatedkiss from the couple, and considering the look on Olive’s face after the wholething was over…dare we say Jason Thorn is a good actor, but actually a badkisser in real life?

Chapter Twenty-Two

Olive

It had been exactly a week and a half sincewe had returned from the movie premiere in London. A week and a half since allthe tabloids made the picture of me—the one nobody could seem to stop talkingabout—their cover. While Jason never even mentioned the existence of it, Meganhad been fuming. She had called me more than a few times just to make sure Iwas aware of how much I was screwing things up for Jason. After that specific conversation,I’d expected to get a call from the man himself where he would gently let meknow that our fake wedding thing was off.

That call never came.

While we barely saw each other the weekafter getting home, I’d kept myself busy with packing and writing the first fewpages of my new novel. As much as I was happy that my muse was back, I was justas unhappy about the fact that I couldn’t tell my mom and dad or even Dylanabout what was going on in my life. At first, they hadn’t believed thatsomething was going on between Jason and me and chose not to listen to thepress, but after they saw the photos of the premiere, they had called and askedme point blank if everything was true. I hated lying to them, but I had noother option if I wanted a chance to make things real with Jason.

Needless to say, neither one of them werehappy with me. While my dad only spoke to me for a few seconds, my mom was…shewas sad and worried that I was making a mistake. Because the filming for SoulAche was about to start, I couldn’t even go to them until Jason had freetime to come with me because there was no way I was facing them alone. No wayin hell.

So, that morning, in Jason Thorn’s millionsof dollars’ worth of Bel Air home, I had officially become Olive Thorn. Otherthan Lucy, Tom, and Megan, there were no witnesses to our holy matrimony. EvenChar couldn’t make it because she had a full day of exams.

Two hours after our ‘wedding’, Jason hadleft me with Lucy because he had to be on set for rehearsals and some otherstuff. A while after that, Lucy had had to leave for a class.

Which left my newly married ass all alonein Jason’s home. As the hours passed, I gave myself a tour of his house andhappily discovered that he had a huge media room with incredibly comfortableleather seats. After walking around aimlessly, in and out of his house, Iforced myself to sit down next to the pool with my laptop and get some words in.

When the sky started to darken and I wasstill alone, I decided that it would be a good idea to start celebrating myvery own wedding day with a drink. Then one drink led to another, and then another.

I did awesome. Happy fucking honeymoonto me!

The next thing I knew I was dialing Lucy’snumber.

“Being Jason Thorn’s wife is not”—Ihiccupped—“as glamorous as I thought it would be.”

“Are you drunk?” Lucy asked.

“So what? So what if I am? Were you havingsex with Jameson? Because if you were, good for you. Good for everyone who ishaving sex. Technically it’s my honeymoon, and do you know how much sex I’mhaving right now? Nada. Zilch. Exactly that much. Think about that. Your mindis blown, right?”

Lucy laughed for a good minute. “Yourssounds blown, all right,” she said, still chuckling. “I think you should slowdown on the drinks.”

“You would think that, right? I mean, ifJason Thorn can’t blow your mind, who the heck will? But is he here blowing mymind right now? Nope. My vagina is perfectly untouched by a Jason Thorn penis.Hell, even my lips are untouched.”

“I thought he would come back by now.”There was a rustling at the end of her line and she murmured something tosomeone.

“You were having sex with Jameson! I knewit! Everyone is having sex right now!”

“Do you want me to come? And just for therecord, you horny newlywed, I wasn’t having sex with Jameson. We were…we werejust lying in bed. He is sleeping actually.”

I sat up straighter and almost knocked downmy champagne glass. “You’re falling in love with him!”

“Okay, now you’re just rambling nonsense. I’llbe there as soon as I can.”

“No,” I whined, taking the last gulp of mychampagne. “I wanna come to you. I’m seconds away from going to his room andjust rubbing myself all over his sheets. I can’t stay here for long.”

“It sounds like you already did that.”

“Not exactly. Soooo, would you like to tellme about how you are in love with Jameson but pretty much scared out of yourmind to hope?”

Silence.

“Ok. Hold tight. I’m coming to get you.”
