I Love You Two
Part 1
(next part here)
Bradley Bradshaw x OFC x Jake Seresin.
Summary:
You (Olivia ‘Liv’ Kazansky) have been chasing Bradley Bradshaw as soon as you learned to walk. He follows his dad’s footsteps and joins the Navy after high school, and you move across the country for college a few years later at 18.
10 years pass but you never forget that brown-eyed boy…maybe that’s why yet another relationship fails. The friendship with Bradley is easily rekindled when you move back home, along with the feelings you’ve tried to suppress. It seems he feels the same about you after an incredible, life-changing night together. But he’s gone the next morning, without a word or even a note, leaving you heartbroken and humiliated.
A few months later, a green-eyed aviator defends your honor from a drunk patron while you’re bartending. To show your thanks, you buy him a drink that leads to a month-long fling, and a plan to pursue more when he gets back from his deployment.
After returning from a rough deployment of his own, Bradley’s determined to find you as soon as his feet touch dry land. Undeterred when you ignore his phone calls and leave his texts on read, he heads to the Hard Deck, hoping you’re there or that Penny will take pity on him. He’s spent countless nights beating himself up for leaving you the way he did and nothing will stop him from telling you how he really feels before he begs for your forgiveness and another chance.
But he finds you in the arms of the man who’s made the last 3 months of his life a living hell.

This is going to be a love triangle, why choose, enemies to lovers, repressed bisexuality, polyamorous angsty story. Please let me know if you have any questions and if you’d like to be added to the taglist.
Like everything else I write/post/reblog, this is not intended for anyone under the age of 18. It will contain adult language, themes, and situations. MDNI!

A feeling of nostalgia has your hand pausing as you reach for the picture sitting on your dresser.
The 3-year-old version of yourself is grinning up at 6-year-old Bradley who’s sticking his tongue out to make you laugh. Even back then it was obvious you thought he hung the moon.
Bradley had always been so good to you; letting you tag along with his friends to play baseball, wiping your tears in middle school when you’d gotten teased for your braces, punching your wasted boyfriend for getting too handsy after prom. He wrote to you when he joined the Navy after he graduated, and let you crash at his shitty apartment when you were in college when he was stationed in Pensacola for spring break.
You were good to him too; you helped him pick out flowers for his crush for Valentine’s Day (even though it broke your heart), gave him your shoulder to cry on at his mom’s funeral, and bought him a pink, purple and blue pride flag when he came out to you as bisexual.
The two of you drifted apart when he got into a serious relationship, and not long after you did too.
Both relationships ended, he stayed single and you tried again, but it didn’t last either. You found yourself missing home. Missing Bradley.
The two of you picked up where you had left off when you moved home, like you’d never been apart. Your dormant feelings for him came back too, more intensely than ever. You started to suspect he felt the same; his once innocent touches now held intent, and you caught the heat in his gaze when his brown eyes lingered.
The simmering tension reached the boiling point the night before he deployed. One too many drinks at the Hard Deck gave you the courage to tell him how you felt; that you were in love with him.
Cold nauseating dread crept in at his silence from your admission. But then he kissed you. And didn’t stop.
A shiver dances down your spine at the memory of that night together; the way he pulled orgasm after orgasm from you with his mouth, hands, and cock, knowing your body like a longtime lover. You’d fallen asleep with a smile on your face, wrapped in his arms as the sunlight began to creep in through your bedroom windows.
A few hours later, you woke up cold and alone.
You hurried out of bed to see if he was in the kitchen or at least left a note. But the Bronco was gone and no note in sight. No new texts or missed calls when you’d found your phone. You’d fallen to the floor with a sob, heart-shattering when you’d dialed his number and went straight to voicemail.
When he didn’t reach out and avoided the Hard Deck when he came home for leave, you’d lost all hope.
.•.•*•.•.•*•.•.•*•.•*•.•.•*•.•.•*•.•.•*•.•.•*•.•.
You blink back the tears threatening to spill over now as you return to the present.
Taking a deep breath, you toss the framed photo into the box containing the rest of the things he gave you or reminded you of him before shoving it under your bed.
Next, you put on a set of clean sheets, you can’t help but picture how you’re going to dirty them with Jake.
He’s due back from his own deployment any day now and you couldn’t wait to have him over for the first time. During your month-long fling, you’d preferred his apartment as the heartbreak from Bradley had been too fresh and you hadn’t been ready to welcome another man into your home yet.
Jake unintentionally snuck through the walls you constructed around your heart a few months after you’d given up on Bradley.
While bartending, a drunk patron had started to get handsy. You’d noticed Jake watching, but you had it handled; brushing it off at first and then getting stern. When the drunk cornered you in the hallway, you got scared. But Jake had stepped in with his southern drawl and escorted him (none too gently) outside. You’re not sure what Jake said, but the color drained from the drunk’s face, and hasn’t been back since.
You had a cold beer waiting on the bar for him when he came back inside, shaking your head when he pulled out his wallet. So he claimed a stool at the end of the bar instead and proceeded to chat you up all night.
Like a moth to a flame, you were drawn to him; he was so easy on the eyes, a cocky- sarcastic-yet-somehow-still-charming-asshole. And he made you laugh, really laugh for the first time since Bradley broke your heart.
After the last call, he laid you down on the pool table and knelt on the beer-sticky floor to eat you out. The wrecked groan he let out when you pulled his hair had your toes curling and sent you spiraling. He too, because when you pulled him up with an order to fuck you, he mumbled an embarrassed, “Give me 5 minutes and I will,” before kissing you and doing just that.
The following weeks were the same; frenzied, hot, unable to keep your hands off the other. But during the times the two of you had to come up for air, you started falling for him.
You’d expected the worst when he asked to see you the night before he was scheduled to deploy for 3 months. But instead of another heartache, he asked not only to continue things when he returns but to make it official.
He’s called you every chance he got; which wasn’t many but you cherished each one. He didn’t talk much about life on the carrier besides complaining about a jerk in his new squadron but never elaborated, preferring to listen to you in the limited time he was granted.
The ping of an incoming text pulls you from your thoughts.
Penny: Have I told you lately that I love you?
Liv: 😑 Who called in?
Penny: Jimmy
Liv: I’ll be there at 4
Penny: You really are the best kiddo. Thank you.
Liv: You owe me 😘
With a sigh, you finish making your bed and get in the shower.
.•.•*•.•.•*•.•.•*•.•*•.•.•*•.•.•*•.•.•*•.•.•*•.•.
There are a few more texts when you get out of the shower and your heart speeds up when you see it’s from Jake.
Jake: Hey sweetheart
Jake: Just found out I’ll be stateside soon
Jake: I can’t wait to see you
Liv: I can’t wait to see you either, but I’m helping Penny out tonight until 10, Jimmy called out.
Jake: Goddamn it, Jimmy.
Liv: Right? You can always visit me too.
Jake: I’ll be there. Did you hear anything about that job?
Liv: I can’t believe you remembered. I got it! Orientation starts in a few weeks.
Jake: Congratulations! I’m thinking we should celebrate?
Liv: Thank you 😘 what are you thinking?
Jake: My head between your thighs to start.
Liv: I like the way you think.
Jake: I’ve gotta go, but I’ll see you soon.
Liv: Can’t wait.
Jake: Me either
You feel like you’re on cloud nine as you get ready, spending a little extra time on your hair and makeup in anticipation of seeing him.
.•.•*•.•.•*•.•.•*•.•*•.•.•*•.•.•*•.•.•*•.•.•*•.•.
Your phone rings on your way to the bar and the onslaught of emotions makes your stomach turn at the name on the screen.
Bradley.
You ignore the longing, hurt, anger, humiliation, and unfortunately excitement as you do the same to the call, letting it go to voicemail.
The feelings intensify when he calls again a moment later, but you refuse to do this with him.
Not now. Not ever.
Too little, too late.
He starts texting as you park around the back of the building.
Bradley: Call me when you get a chance.
Bradley: Please?
Bradley: We need to talk.
Bradley: I’m so sorry, I’ll explain everything. Bradley: Just call me back. Please, Liv. Or tell me where you are.
A smile pulls at your lips as you silence your phone before sliding it into your back pocket, leaving him on read.
.•.•*•.•.•*•.•.•*•.•*•.•.•*•.•.•*•.•.•*•.•.•*•.•.
To say it’s busy would be an understatement.
You hardly have time to breathe much less overthink things with Bradley for the first few hours. Eventually, he stops; that or your butt cheek has gone numb from the constant vibration through your jean shorts.
“What can I get you?” You ask, not looking up from your open till as khaki approaches the bar from the corner of your eye.
“A blow job?”
Your eyes fly to Jake’s at the sound of his voice.
“The shot of course,” he smirks.
“Of course,” you grin back, pushing the till closed before leaning across the bar to kiss him. You pull back to murmur. “Promise to keep your hands behind your back and swallow it all?”
You’re just teasing, but you don’t miss the way his pupils dilate and the slight flush your words cause. But he recovers, “Spitters are quitters.”
“Mhmm,” you hum, “and I’m no quitter.”
His eyes drop to your lips, remembering how right you are.
A throat clearing has you stepping back.
“Sorry for interrupting whatever the fuck that was,” Natasha says with a disgusted look, “You’re with Bagman, Liv?!”
“Hangman,” Jake corrects, resting his elbow on the bar.
“Whatever,” she’s still looking at you, a bit horrified, a little disgusted.
“Uh…yeah,” you reply, looking at Jake confused as you pull a couple of beers from the fridge before popping the caps off and handing them to her. “Why?”
“Your funeral,” is all she says before walking away.
“What was that all about?” You ask. “Wait-how do you guys know each other?”
“She’s-“ his response is drowned out by Penny ringing the bell, and the cheering that follows, “when’s your break?”
You look at the clock and then the decreasing crowd, “Should be okay to go now if you want to meet me round back? I’ll check with Penny.”
He nods before making his way there.
.•.•*•.•.•*•.•.•*•.•*•.•.•*•.•.•*•.•.•*•.•.•*•.•.
“I’ll be out back,” you tell Penny.
She nods just as Bradley struts through the door. He looks so fucking good in those tight jeans and one of Goose’s Hawaiian shirts, unbuttoned. The white undershirt is tight against the abs you traced with your tongue the last time you saw him.
He scans the place but you duck out of sight before he spots you.
Any questions you had and Bradley’s presence are forgotten when you swing open the door. Jake’s leaning against the building, twirling a toothpick with his tongue as he waits.
Your fingers pull it from his mouth and fling it away before meeting him halfway in a heated, biting kiss.
He turns, guiding your back against the wall and you both sigh when your hips meet. You can feel the heat from his erection through the layers of your clothes and when he thrusts, the seam of your shorts rubs your clit just right; you’re suddenly convinced you can’t wait until your shift is over.
“Liv?”
You sigh as he kisses a trail down your neck, not hearing your name being called.
“Liv!”
Recognition tugs as your lust-addled mind but then Jake nips your collarbone while he grinds his hips harder. If he keeps going just like that…
“Olivia!” The door slamming open against the wall beside you makes you both flinch.
“Liv?” The desperation in Bradley’s voice tugs at your heartstrings.
“What do you want Bradley?” You ask as Jake takes a step back, still close but no longer touching.
Bradley’s head whips toward you two, brow furrowing before he pulls Jake off you.
“What the hell!?” Jake pushes him once he gets his footing.
“I-what-Liv?” Bradley stutters before looking to you for an answer.
“What?” You cross your arms.
“I need to talk to you,” Bradley replies, “please.”
“Now you wanna talk?” You laugh without mirth. “Now?! After 6 months of nothing? No calls or texts or emails or letters?”
“Liv,” he winces, “I know. I fucked up, okay? I-“ he looks at Jake, “can we please talk about this privately? Or just not in front of Hangman?”
“Hangman?” You’re confused. Both he and Natasha know Jake’s callsign. “How…?” You trail off as you look between them.
“We were deployed together,” Bradley answers, “he was assigned to the Daggers.”
The thought of them being deployed together had occurred to you, but there were typically several squadrons on the carrier at a time, so it wasn’t likely that they knew each other more than in passing; much less being in the same squadron.
You look at Jake and he nods at your unasked question.
Bradley was the one he’s been complaining about.
“Anything you need to say, you can say in front of Hangman,” you sigh.
“I’d rather not,” Bradley says, his jaw clenching.
“Then fuck off,” you push off the building to head back inside but Bradley reaches for your arm.
“Bradshaw,” Jake warns, taking a step forward.
“I was scared,” Bradley says hoarsely as he releases your arm, “and I panicked. I can’t lose you, Liv. I can’t another person I care about; my parents, Mav…I’ve been beating myself since I left, trying to figure out a way to make things right, and just making things worse by not reaching out. I know. I fucked up and I’m so sorry. Let me make things right.”
“Same old Rooster,” Jake chuckles cruelly as he comes up behind you, wrapping his arms around your waist, “sitting too snug on that perch again, huh? Missed your chance. Again.”
Bradley watches him kiss your cheek and doesn’t look away as his lips start to make their way down your neck. You’re not a fan of being this affectionate in front of others but this feels…different. It almost seems like Bradley likes it too. Until he opens his mouth.
“You’re doing this to hurt me, aren’t you?” Bradley says lowly.
“Doing what to-what are you talking about?” You ask.
“This,” Bradley nods at Jake, “You found out through Uncle Ice that he’s been making my life a living hell and decided to fuck him. Just to stick it to me?”
Jake stops kissing your neck to look up at him too.
Hot tears fill your eyes and spill over before you have a chance to blink them back. Bradley’s bravado deflates as he realizes he’s so wrong; that he fucked up. Again.
“Fuck you,” you whisper before heading back inside, Jake shaking his head as he follows.

A/N: I…dunno what to say. I’m really excited for this and I really hope you’ll like it. What’d ya think? Is Bradley getting what he deserved or too harsh since he’s been through so much?
As always, any interaction is appreciated but I LOVE hearing what you think in the comments/reblogs! Seriously, feedback helps me more than anything.
Please let me know if you want to be added to (or removed from) my taglist…and if I forgot to add you-it wasn’t intentional, just remind me and I’ll get you added.
