The person I am online

Prologue

Jacey was a nerd. She was made fun of every day and bullied. She had no friends and her home life sucked pretty badly as well. So, she went on an online dating sight and became the woman she always wanted to be. She was fun, sexy, adventurous, spontaneous, had a great career (the career of her dreams actually), and she was rich.

She always had guys wanting to meet her, but she always had an excuse which only made them want her more. She was unstoppable and would never let herself get attached to any of them. Until she met a guy named Damon and he turned her world upside down.

Is it possible to fall in love with a man you only met online? Would he still want her when he found out who and what she really was? These are the questions you will find the answers to and so much more within this story. It's full of romance drama and comedy.

Everyone can be anyone online, but can they keep up the lies once faced with the truth? Can Jacey get everything she has ever wanted, or has she made a huge mistake? I guess only time will tell....

Chapter 1

Jacey's story

I don't know why I even get out of bed anymore it's the same thing day in and day out nothing ever changes. I was picked on all throughout my school life growing up because I was a nerd. I had no friends growing up. I couldn't talk to anyone because I was scared. My home life was terrible I had gotten beat on every day. I was my mother and stepfathers slave I did everything for them. My father left my mom before he knew about me because he couldn't take her abuse.

I often dreamed of him coming and rescuing me. But of course, that never happens. I have a job that I work too much at. I get all the shit jobs for little pay. But at least it got me my small apartment, so I don't get beat on anymore. I have been treated badly all my life that I wouldn't know how I'd feel if someone started to treat me good.

I am so bored with my life. I've never even had boyfriend guys don't even look at me. Even if they did, I would be too scared to even talk to them. I was sitting at my desk doing work and trying to ignore the TV when a commercial came on that caught my eye. It was an online dating service. The man said where you can go and be the person you want to be.

That's what I need to go online and meet people. No one would know me at all I could say I was anyone. I could be rich famous and a model. I put away my work and went on the site. I filled out an online profile and made myself sound fun and sexy. Now all I needed was a picture great now what was I going to do? I looked through my pictures and found one of me I forgot I had. It was a picture taken of me at a party when everyone decided it would be funny to get me a makeover and make me think I looked good for a day. I didn't look myself in this picture so this will do.

Hell, I felt like a model in this picture. I posted and instantly got an email telling me welcome to find a mate and enjoy my online experience. I clicked off the site and started doing my work so I could go to bed since I had to be up early to give my boss his notes for a meeting that I couldn't even attend. Yes, this was my life making everyone else happy and doing nothing for myself.

I figured I would check my profile once a day when I got home from work so that way, I wouldn't get too depressed when no one wanted to talk to me. It shouldn't bother me anymore since I'm used to it. It's my everyday life no one ever wants to be around me unless I am doing something for them. I don't know why I let everyone walk all over me, but I do it's because that's the only way I can have someone talk to me.

I got the last of my paperwork done and I was going to go to bed, but I was curious. I wanted to see if I got one email, so I went online just to see. I was shocked that I didn't have one email I had over a hundred. Guys telling me how sexy I was and that they would love to meet me. I don't know how it happened, but something changed in me at that moment I wasn't the nerdy loser anymore. I was Jacey high paid lawyer that has nice cars a mansion and everything I ever wanted except for the perfect man.

Yes, I know it's a total lie but who tells the truth online any more right? Besides it's not like I will ever really meet any of these guys so what's the harm? Besides, I deserve to have some fun in my life so that's just what I'm going to do. No one needs to know about the person I am online.

Chapter 2

Jacey's story

Jacey stayed up all night pretending to be someone she wasn't. She felt alive for the first time in her life. She got so caught up in her fake life that she was late for her real-life job. She quickly got all her papers put in her briefcase and took the fastest shower of her life. She just threw something on she didn't care what she looked like it's not like anyone noticed her any way not unless they needed her to do their work.

"Jacey so glad you could make it. I'd like you to meet our newest partner to the firm Mr. Marino. I have a meeting I need to get to so can you please show him to his office Jacey. Oh, and since he hasn't been able to get an assistant, yet you will be his for now. If you guys need anything just let me know."

"Ok right this way Mr. Marino."

"Please call me Damon calling me Mr. Marino makes me feel so old."

"Ok here is your office Mr. I mean Damon if you need anything I will be at the desk right out front."

I hurried to the desk and let out the breath in which I was holding. That had to be the sexiest man I have ever seen, and here I am looking for like crap. Oh well it's not like a man like that would ever notice me any way. I was feeling so down that I checked my email to see if I got any more responses. I was shocked to see I got a ton more emails. I got one that caught my eye from a guy named Lonely Lawyer looking for love. So, I clicked on it to see what he had to say.

"Hello, I don't usually do this kind of thing, but my friends told me about this site and since I don't get out much, I figured I would give it a try. So, let's see about me I am a 30-year-old Lawyer working here in Colorado. I don't have any kids but would love to have kids with the right person. I have one brother that I am close too. I'm a bit of a workaholic but when I do relax, I love to read or watch movies. I don't know what I'll find on this site, but I'm looking for my soul mate could that be you?"

I hurried and sent him a reply because he just sounded perfect. I heard a noise behind me, so I hurried and signed off and turned around.

"Is there something I can get you Damon?"

"Um yes I was wondering if you could order us some lunch and then could you help me look over a few of these cases and catch me up."

"Um sure what would you like?"

"Oh, just order me whatever you were going to have."

Great I brought my lunch with me today, so I brought my home-made lasagna. There's enough for the two of us so I called Gino's and ordered some garlic bread and salads. I also got some of their sweet tea. I hurried to warm up the lasagna and once the other stuff came, I put everything on plates and carried them in.

"Thank you so much for this let me get these for you."

I went back out and got our sweet teas and then set across from him at the small table in his office.

"It's not a problem just doing my job."

"Wow this lasagna is amazing I don't remember Gino's ever being this good and I eat there a lot."

"That's because I only ordered the garlic bread and salad from them, I brought the lasagna from home it's my family recipe."

"Wow your one hell of a cook."

I blushed as I said thank you. He was the first person to ever compliment me like that and it felt wonderful.
