Trying to Score

We’re not there, but Lucas is. Eat with him sis, give him a chance.
The traitor! Fallon was gonna kill her!
Fallon looked up at Lucas’ smiling face and had to look away. “Listen, here is how this is gonna happen,” she said quietly. “We are gonna walk out of this restaurant without causing a scene. You will go to your car and I’ll go to mine and we will never see each other again. Got it?” she asked as she looked up.
“What?”
“I will not be having dinner with you, and when I find out how you got my sister on your side, I’m pretty sure I’ll be calling to cuss you out, but for right now we are gonna leave like we are just old friends. Because if you embarrass me in front of the people in the restaurant, I might just kill you,” Fallon, said, looking up into his eyes. “I sell here, don’t f**k with where I sell at.”
“I wasn’t going to, but I thought we could at least sit down for dinner,” Lucas said, getting madder by the minute. Audrey must have not told Fallon to meet him because he could tell Fallon was about to blow.
Shit.
“Let’s go outside,” she said through her teeth as she smiled at someone off to the side. Lucas looked around him before looking back down at her, he was beyond pissed. He had everything ready. He knew what he wanted to say and how he was going to convince her to give him a chance, but with the way she was looking, Lucas knew it wasn’t going to happen.
Lucas nodded as she turned to leave. He followed her outside and towards her car. When he saw her stop by the black Acura, he raised an eyebrow. “What happened to the Charger?”
They had had some good times in that car. It was the sexiest damn car he had ever seen, just like its owner.
“I sold it, now what do you want?” she said in her snooty little voice as she opened the door and placed her purse in the passenger’s side seat. Lucas found himself rolling his eyes like a girl because this woman frustrated him beyond belief.
“I want to go back inside and eat.”

“No, I told you in the office, I don’t want anything to do with you. I can’t do us, Lucas. I can’t,” she basically pleaded.
A normal man would have walked away, but Lucas wasn’t normal.
“You are not giving me a fair chance.”
“You cheated on me! You’re lucky I’m not decking you in the face.”
“I was a different person; give me a chance to explain. I know you still care for me.”
She shook her head and he saw the tears in her eyes that were threatening to fall. He didn’t want her to cry, he wanted her to be happy. With him. Was he being selfish? Maybe, but he knew what he wanted and he knew Fallon still cared for him, maybe even loved him.
“Even if I do Lucas, I can’t do this.”
“Why? We are different people, give it a chance. We are so good together.”
“We were good together. Like you said, we are two different people now and the new me can’t do what we had. It was too toxic, too intense.”
“It was perfect, and you know it. Stop fighting it.”
Fallon rolled her eyes. “I mean, what do you want? Do you just want to go f**k and get it over with?”
Hearing that risqué word leave those luscious lips had Lucas rock hard. He had to fight the lust that screamed for him to say ’YES’ to say no, because that wasn’t only what he wanted. He was ready to be with someone, he was ready to be with Fallon.
“No baby, I want you. All of you. I promise I won’t mess up this time, I just need you to believe me,” he pleaded, taking a step towards her, but she put her hand on his chest, stopping him.
“I…I need to- I can’t.”
Fallon jumped into the car, starting it and whipping it out of the parking spot before Lucas could even move.
But this time, he wasn’t going to let her get away.

“I love you Audrey I do, but do you know I could f**king kill you right now!” Fallon screamed as pulled out onto the main road.
“Oh my God, Fallon, over dramatic much? And what’s up with all the cussing? It’s weird.”
“I’m serious Audrey. You had him meet me at the place we sell at! What if we got into a screaming match, what would have happened then? You not only risk my sanity but also our contract with J’s!”
Audrey let out a frustrated breath. “Okay, this over dramatic shit is getting old. I am trying to help you! You still love him, tell him about Aiden, let them meet, have sex with him and then get married so you can stop driving me up the f**king wall!”
“What the hell does that mean?! I don’t drive you up the wall!”
Audrey let out an empty laugh, and Fallon swore she was gonna get into an accident. She was driving like a lunatic. “You know damn well what it means! I can’t live my life ‘cause I’m worried about you and Aiden.”
“Oh please!” Fallon yelled, “We are not holding you back!”
“Yes you are! I can’t go find me a man and get married because I’m too worried about my big sister and her baby. I love you guys and I want y’all to be happy. I’ve been going years thinking that maybe you were just waiting for the right guy or hell that you might be g*y! But no, you’re still caught up on some dude that I never even knew about! Get your head out of your ass and tell him about his kid, and see what happens. Stop being such a whiny little bitch!”
