Trying to Score Page 18

“’Cause there hasn’t been anyone since him,” Fallon answered sadly.

“’Cause you haven’t tried to be with anyone else,” Audrey pointed out. “A lot of guys want a piece of your crazy hot ass.”

Fallon laughed. “I’m not crazy hot, and plus after being with Lucas, no one could ever compare. That’s probably why I haven’t been with anyone. I’m still so raw.”

Audrey shook her head. “Fallon, it’s been seven years, and I have never heard of him. Now, not only do I know who Aiden’s daddy is, but I know that this dude was your dude. What the hell?”

Fallon slowly shrugged her shoulders as she bit at the skin around her index finger. “Maybe I’m over him,” she then laughed, “Or maybe I know the truth is coming out, so I gotta tell someone!”

Audrey laughed. “I don’t think you’re over him, sis. If you were, he wouldn’t affect you the way he does.”

“Maybe you are right ‘cause Lord, I’m so scared about seeing him again.”

“You should be, he is sexy as all get out,” Audrey gushed as Fallon smiled.

“You have no clue on the amount of sexiness there is when that man takes his clothes off,” Fallon said breathlessly as she waved her hand in her face. It was suddenly very hot in Fallon’s small kitchen.

Audrey giggled as she placed her face in her hands, looking up at Fallon. “Oooh, do tell!”

Fallon giggled along as she just shook his head. “Oh Audrey, my favorite thing about him other than his eyes, was his chest. It was a little hairy but not much, his abs was something straight out of a magazine, ripped beyond all belief. He had this sexy ass tattoo along his pecks that said, ‘Never look back, never think twice’ and…”

Audrey cut her off before she could go on. “How in the world do you still remember what his tattoo says!”

Fallon gave her a shy, naughty smile. “When you’ve ran your tongue along them letters enough times, you tend to remember what they say.”

Audrey laughed out loud, holding her stomach as Fallon giggled uncontrollably. “He was everything I wanted. I loved him with everything inside of me,” Fallon said sadly when she stopped laughing.

They sat for a moment, and Fallon couldn’t help but think about seeing him again. It had been so long, what would happen? Would she do what Audrey said? Fallon knew that would stun him. It brought a grin to her face just to imagine the look on his face if she was bold enough to do it.

“Why did y’all break up?”

Fallon looked up and then back down as she shook her head. It hurt so bad just to think about. So damn bad. She would be lying if she said she didn’t think of him, if she still didn’t miss him, because she did. She hadn’t even seen him yet and just the thought of his eyes settling on hers brought her to her knees. That was why she was so nervous about seeing him. She may still be mad and not want anything to do with him but if he was persistent, the way she knew he would be, she wasn’t sure if she could resist.

There was just something about Lucas Brooks that could stop a full room from talking and make them look at him. He was so intoxicating, so full of life. He loved living, he was fun, he had a joke for everything, and he was always smiling, even after all he had dealt with. His body was her Wonderland, she could still to this day remember every tattoo, every scar, every ab, the line of hair that ran from his belly button down, everything. It still broke Fallon’s heart every time she thought back to that day.

The day that basically ruined her life.

“You’re zoning out on me Fal,” Audrey said with a laugh. Fallon looked over at her.

“He broke me,” Fallon said simply as she closed her eyes. When she opened them, Audrey was looking at her with a worried look on her face. Fallon gave her a small smile before she slowly retold why they broke up.

Chapter 5

It had been a long week since Fallon had seen Lucas. He had gone back on the road and she had gone home to see Audrey for a couple days. Fallon was beyond excited about finally seeing him tonight. Lucas said he was gonna meet her at the dorm and Fallon decided she couldn’t drive fast enough to get there.

Two years, it was still hard to believe. Fallon had never been with someone so long or hell, been in love so long. She knew she loved Lucas two months in, and hadn’t stopped yet. Yeah, he could make her so mad she wanted to rip his face off but within a minute, he had her laughing or on her back with him on top of her.

A slow smile went across Fallon’s face — she couldn’t wait to get home. She was ready to be with her man. When she saw his truck in the parking lot, she parked beside it and jumped out, heading up the walkway to the dorm. Once inside, she made her way upstairs praying that Allison was still in Houston visiting her family. If she wasn’t, oh well, she was about to see a show. Fallon giggled to herself as she ran up the many stairs to the hall that held her room. When she reached it, she threw the door open and stepped inside.

It was dark.

Fallon flipped on the lights and when her eyes adjusted, she couldn’t catch her breath.

Allison jumped up, throwing clothes on as Lucas just laid there.

Naked.

“What the f**k?” Fallon said once she found her voice.

“Oh God,” Allison whispered as she zipped her pants.

Lucas finally stirred, sitting up and looking around. When he looked at Fallon, his eyes went wide, and that was when Fallon’s heart broke. At that moment she knew he was going to try to hide this from her. That maybe he even planned it. Get some from Allison before she came home and then he would get it from her.
