Ok so my first fan fiction. Should i continue? Some reviews/criticism/ideas would be appreciated. Thanks

Alex POV

I had my back to her, cleaning up after another late night dinner together. I heard her behind me.

"Alex" she whispered

She had been quiet all evening, something I had put down to more problems with her useless excuse of a husband who thankfully was away on one of his numerous business trips.

I turned around and was slightly taken back at what I saw. She was standing there, unmoving, staring; her eyes were glassed over as if she was going to cry. The Olivia I know hardly ever cries.

"Liv, are you ok" I asked

She said nothing only continued to stare. "Liv?" I repeated, giving her a questioning look

"I have been wanting for this for a long time" she said quietly as she slowly closed the distance between us

"Wanting what Olivia?" She was standing so close to me now, it has always been hard to be this close to her; to ignore the overwhelming desire to bend down and kiss her. I quickly expelled the thought from my mind.

"You" she whispered staring down at the floor

My breath hitched, I was searching my brain for what she could possibly mean

"I see the way you look at me" she said louder this time

"ahh um Liv… I um…what?" I muttered rather incoherently

She tore her eyes away from the floor and looked straight into mine, it felt like they were burning into my soul.

"You know what; I know you feel it to"

I did oh god, I did. But she was married, unhappily yes but married neither the less.

"Liv what about Greg?" I asked. My heart my thumping in my chest, I have dreamed of this moment for so long.

She shook her head and we both knew nothing more needed to be said.

I reached out to caress her face, she moaned as my fingers brushed over her soft skin. Her eyes bore into me as she slowly brought her lips to mine. I let out a small moan and that was all the encouragement she needed. Before I knew it she had me pinned against the bench, her hands on my hips making their way up my body. The kiss that started so carefully and gently turned fierce with all the pent up need and desire.

Olivia's POV

Greg was gone again, not that I minded, we were married in name only. It had started out ok, I was lonely, he wanted a wife on his arm at all his important business functions. It worked. Then I meet Alex and my world started to crumple. We started spending a lot of time together; I would count down the days till Greg left on one of his business trips. I stopped asking him where he was going, who he was going with. I didn't care and although at first he was surprised I also think he was glad that he didn't have to keep making up lies and excuses about all those women merely being work colleagues.

The then late night dinners started, the cosy dinners on the couch drinking wine, talking and watching movies. It was the first time in my life I was truly content to just sit and relax. At first I was reserved, thought that my school girl crush was one sided and silly, but then it become more than that and I felt there was something more to our friendship. We told each other things no one else knew, we shared so many moments where I was sure she was going to kiss me, only to crack a joke or do something silly so that the moment would slip away. I knew where we were heading; I knew it was only a matter of time before we crossed the line. It was scary but empowering at the same time. How could one person have so much control over me, over my body, over my emotions?

Then one day before Greg left we had a fight, a big screaming match back and forth about something so insufficient. I finally realised I had had enough; I don't know why I waited so long to let myself have happiness.

I had been quiet all evening, I knew she was worried; she kept looking at me checking if I was alright. I couldn't say anything; I wanted to wait until the right moment to show her. In the back of my mind I had a fear that all those moments, all those feelings were only felt on my behalf, I was nervous but knew it was now or never.

I went into my room to change as she was cleaning up, I was so nervous I felt like I would burst into tears. She had her back to me as I moved into the kitchen.

"Alex" I whispered standing behind her

She turned around clearly looking confused. Do it now my head was screaming. And so I did, I crossed the line that had been begging to be crossed for a long time.
