the blinds pushed to the side so you can see directly into the house.
“Listen, Jace. I know what that might have looked like but…”
“You don’t have to explain it to me, Noelle. I saw you push him away.” He shoves off from his car and meets me in the middle of the street. “But I also saw you two kiss and I have to say that hurt. I just don’t understand why I feel so territorial over you. I don’t want him touching you. I should take you inside my house and erase every touch of his.”
Looking down I feel guilty. If he only knew how he touched me earlier in the night.
“Do you want him?” He asks bringing me out of my daze.
“I still don’t know,” I say with conviction looking up because I don’t have a clue.
“Do you want me?”
“I don’t know that either.”
He’s the safer choice. If things don’t work out with Jace, or he is just another notch on my long belt full of notches, there is absolutely no collateral damage. There is no possibility of losing a friend or people that I call family, and I’m attracted to Jace. I normally don’t feel so connected to someone right away besides physically but there is something about him that makes me want to know him better.
But I can’t lose Trent.
There is no denying the sexual chemistry between the two of us, and I know that we would be explosive in the bedroom. Deep down inside I’ve always wanted something with him but until today I didn’t realize it was there.
Two weeks ago I was speed dialing Chase for our monthly screw and today I’m considering changing my casual sex dating life for one of two men who are offering me more.
With a quick goodbye and a promise to call later this week, I head home to try to rid myself of this horrendous headache that has slowly seeped its way in. After I pop some medicine and take a bath I pour myself into bed.
The light from my phone blinks with waiting text messages.
Erin: Lucy, you have some ‘splainin’ to do!
Sexy Jace: Sweet dreams, sweet thing.
Trent: Choose us.
I cry myself to sleep that night knowing that soon I’m going to have to break someone’s heart…and it might be my own.
I’ve never been so nervous in my life. My palms are sweating, and my knees are shaking. It’s like the first time I took a girl on a date but this is more important. I’m not only trying to win her over, I’m trying to win her away from another guy. But I’ve got one thing going for me…I’ve known her a hell of a lot longer. I know what makes her tick, what pisses her off, and I’m pretty sure I know how to turn her on.
The past week has been crazy with all the construction work that summer brings, and I haven’t had time to drink a beer let alone spend time with Noelle. She finally agreed to make plans today, and right now I’ve got her exactly where I want her…in my hands.
“I can’t believe you’re taking me to Six Flags! I haven’t been there in forever. I’m so excited!” She giddily shrieks in the passenger seat, fingers locked with mine.
A blood curdling scream comes from the back as Jason excitedly mimics Noelle’s enthusiasm. He won’t be tagging along so that we can freely ride the coasters. I’m scared of heights, but I love the thrill of a roller coaster. I haven’t been there in a while either, and if I’m going to fight for Noelle she needs my full attention.
She spent most of the morning with us arriving just after breakfast. Every time I see her with Jason it takes my breath away. She loves him as much as I do, and I know her love for him is a big part of why she doesn’t know if we can give it a go. We’ve spoken on the phone or texted every night this week. She has expressed multiple times that she’s worried something will happen, and she won’t be welcome around Jason or our family. She has to know better, but I need to make her see that I’m in this for the long haul and not just a few months. That worrying about what happens after isn’t an
