Trying to Score Page 60

Great.

“Aiden, honey, your team is warming up,” Fallon said.

Lucas looked down to see Aiden looking at the field. “Okay Mom,” he groaned, and then he looked up at Lucas saying, “You’re staying for the whole game?”

Lucas smiled as he put his hand on Aiden’s head, ruffling his hair. “Of course I am, maybe we can get some ice cream after.”

“Awesome!” and off Aiden went.

Lucas looked over at Fallon, but couldn’t tell if she was looking at him because she had put on some dark sunglasses. He looked at Audrey and saw that she had a big grin on her face. She clapped her hands before saying, “Well I’m gonna go get some food with Mom and Daddy.”

And off she went, leaving Lucas with a very pissed off Fallon. Her anger was radiating off her, and Lucas didn’t blame Audrey for running off. He kind of wished she had taken him with her, but then he glanced at the Fallon’s dad and decided Fallon would be easier to deal with.

“You look good today, Fal,” he said against his better judgment.

Fallon looked over at him. “Thanks,” she said sharply as she turned and started walking off. He shook his head as he jogged lightly to catch up with her.

“Is that your mom and dad?” he asked trying to keep up with her. He would have thought the high heels she wore would have slowed her down.

They didn’t.

“Yeah, why don’t you go introduce yourself?” she snapped, causing him to laugh.

“I’m pretty sure that would mean throwing myself to the wolves, so I’ll pass.”

“Good choice,” she mumbled as she climbed the bleachers.

Lucas followed a little behind her so he could admire her ass as she climbed the stairs. Call him a dog, but Fallon had a fine ass and he loved watching it in motion. She sat down and Lucas sat beside her, resting his arms on his knees as he watched Aiden warm up. When a tall lanky guy with a white curly hair came over to Aiden and started talking to him, Lucas looked over at Fallon.

“Who’s the dweeb?”

“Aiden’s coach,” she answered as the guy turned, looking up at the bleachers. When his eyes settled on Fallon, he waved and Lucas watched as Fallon put on her fake smile and waved back. The dweeb gave her a goofy smile before turning back to Aiden.

“You like that guy?” Lucas blurted out.

“I’m not in the mood, Lucas.”

“What? I asked a simple question?”

“A question that is none of your business,” Fallon warned as she looked down the bleachers. Lucas followed her gaze and saw her parents walking up the bleachers with Audrey. Audrey said something and kept climbing up the stairs, while her parents sat down with their food.

“Um, yes it is, if that dweeb is going to be around my kid,” Lucas replied as Audrey sat beside him.

“Shut up, Lucas,” Fallon snapped as she put her elbows on her knees with her face in her hands.

Lucas looked at her for a moment more before turning his attention to Audrey. “What the hell is her problem?”

Audrey rolled her eyes as she swallowed the bite of hot dog she had just eaten. “Her and Dad got into it about you.”

“Thanks, Audrey,” Fallon mumbled.

“Oh,” Lucas said as he turned his attention back to Fallon, “should I watch my back?”

Audrey started giggling and Fallon’s mouth pulled at the side but she didn’t laugh as she shrugged her shoulders. “I don’t care what you do.”

Lucas smiled as he leaned a little closer to her, and he was surprised when she didn’t move away. “Can I watch yours?” he whispered. Fallon turned her head to look at him.

“You can watch all you want, but you will never touch. Only Chase can,” she said in her snooty little way.

“Who the hell is Chase?” Lucas asked. He leaned back from her, hating that his flirting didn’t work.

Maybe she was becoming immune to his charm?

“The coach, and don’t let her lie to you, she don’t even like him,” Audrey said from his side.

“Shut up, Audrey,” Fallon snapped. Lucas laughed as he leaned against Audrey.

“Thanks, I couldn’t tell if she was lying. She has those damn glasses on.”

“Defense mechanism,” Audrey said as she threw a chip in her mouth.

“True that,” Lucas laughed.

“I do like him, thank you,” Fallon said, but Lucas ignored her as the game started. Aiden’s team took the field first, and Lucas sat on the edge of his seat. He was so excited to see Aiden play, even if he didn’t like baseball. It was just the fact that his boy was playing something that made him giddy with excitement.

“Is he good?”

Lucas didn’t know why he asked though — Brooks’ men were great at everything.

“Sure,” Fallon answered through tight lips.

“She’s lying again,” Audrey whispered. Lucas looked over at her.

“She is?”

“Oh yeah, I love him, but he’s terrible.”

“I so hear you right now and I am telling him you said that!” Fallon said.

Audrey giggled as Lucas looked over at Fallon. “He sucks and you’re still making him play?”

“Shut up, Lucas,” Fallon said for what seemed like the hundredth time.

Lucas rolled his eyes as he looked out on the field. He searched the field for his boy, and found him in right field. Even he knew that was bad, and he hated this sport. Aiden had his hands on his knees, ready for the ball while the left fielder chased a butterfly and the center fielder picked his nose. Why was his kid in right field? Especially with Coach Dweeb trying to sleep his Fallon! Obviously Coach Dweeb had no game.
