Inevitable

Prologue

A/N: Welcome to my new Damie story! Make no mistake, it is totally Damie, all about Jamie and Dakota and their romance. And because I am who I am, it will have a happily ever after and no cheating.

What it will not have is the Fifty Shades backdrop. This story is a fantasy about what it would be like if they met under completely organic circumstances. In this scenario, Jamie is a model/actor turned very successful movie producer. He is a divorced father of two who keeps his private life very private. In fact, other than those closest to him, most don't realize he has an ex-wife and children. Dakota is the Dakota we all know and love – modeling, acting, and starting her producing/directing career. They meet through a mutual acquaintance and nature takes its course.

There will be some reference to actual current events, but they may have a twist. In other words, this story will not be bound by facts. Other events may be completely made up to suit the plot of the story. I'll do my best to keep to their personalities as I perceive them, as you guys seem to like how I write them.

I realize this may not be everyone's cup of tea, so I wanted to give you fair warning. It is a Damie love story, but it is not a Fifty Shades based Damie story. If you don't want to read, I completely understand and there will be no hard feelings. Otherwise, I hope you'll add this story to your reading list as I plan to start posting this weekend. And I plan to have way too much fun with this!

A little preview....

"Wow. She's more breath taking in person."

Andrew gives my shoulders a squeeze, "She's super cool, though. Don't stress. She's someone you need to meet, trust me."

I resist the urge to reach for my inhaler as my former roommate waves the impeccable Dakota Johnson over to where we are standing. I've been in the presence of some of the most beautiful models and actresses in the world, but THIS woman simply takes my breath away.

Her eyebrows raise and she throws him a genuine smile and a wave as she moves to make her way toward us. She stumbles as she reaches Andrew and giggle snorts as she steps easily into his arms for a sincere hug.

As they separate, she looks to me with the most transfixing baby blue eyes I've ever seen. Andrew performs the introductions, "Dakota, this is one of my best friends, Jamie Dornan. He and I lived together when we first came to LA and he is now way too important for me. And Jamie, this is my leading lady, Dakota Johnson – brilliant actress, dog lover, and practical joker."

I'm enchanted by the blush that creeps up her cheeks as she slugs him good naturedly and reaches for my hand and says a little shyly, "Pleased to meet you, Jamie. I salute anyone who could stand to live with this guy."

The minute my hand touches hers, I feel a complete jolt, and color me crazy, but I think she feels it too based on her little gasp and the way her eyes widened. "Nice to meet you as well."

Andrew looks at me like, is this the best you can do, man?!?
