“But she left?” He raised an eyebrow. “Even after all that?”
“Yeah. Didn’t leave her number or anything. Just…”
“What?”
Her shoes.
I rubbed a hand over my face. “Nothing. It doesn’t matter now. We had agreed that it was just one night. No names.”
One night. One pair of shoes left on my bedroom floor. One girl I couldn’t get out of my mind.
“Sure.” Forest shrugged. “But it doesn’t have to be.”
“What? Did you not hear me? I don’t even know her first name. The only thing I know about her is that she’s in the theater department.”
And what she sounded like as she came.
A noise that kept playing in my ear every night, and I couldn’t get out of my head. Or her face as I slid into her.
“So, go find her.”
My heart twinged, wondering what it would be like—being withher—but I shoved it down. There was no time for that line of thinking about my future. Right?
Besides, she’d left.
Fuck, I was a mess.
I sighed, because he made it sound so easy. Maybe in a movie, it would be. I’d turn the corner in the library and she’d be seated in a booth, the spot open like she’d left it for me. But this wasn’t a movie, and our campus wasn’t exactly tiny.
I didn’t want to wait around on the off-chance I ran into her,but what else was I going to do? Ask everyone who’d been at the Halloween party if they’d seen a beautiful blonde dressed as a princess with legs for days? With those silver heels that had been hot as fuck when she’d wrapped her legs around my waist, forcing me deeper inside of her?
No.
Go find her.
How was I going to accomplish that? I didn’t know, but I knew I was going to try. My parents hadn’t raised me to give up easily.
I was determined to find my Princess and wouldn’t rest until I did.
Even if I had to try that pair of shoes on every girl at this school.
CHAPTER 7
Ella
Looking up at our sorority house, I couldn’t help the smile that spread over my face.
They’d built it off campus years ago, needing more space as the organization grew—but even then, we could house less than half of our girls in the house. Freshman didn’t live in while they were going through the recruitment process, instead most choosing to move in their sophomore year. Between the sleeping porch and the other bedrooms, it was full of more estrogen than should be legally acceptable. And yet, the large, three-story building held so many wonderful memories for me.
My favorite part was the bright pop of color—our official color was pink, and they’d painted the house to match. It was a bubble gum color, with white trim, but in the last decade, one of the executive boards had spruced up the outside, adding pink rose bushes out front. The letters that adorned the front of the house were a familiar sight, one I’d looked at almost every day for the last few years.
Audrey and I had both moved in last year, and had been lucky enough to get one of the large shared bedrooms this year. It was practically home.
Unwinding the scarf from my neck, I hurried inside. Aftermy morning classes had finished, I’d gotten a text to come back to the house for a meeting, and since I was free until my late afternoon class, I hadn’t minded.
Our house mom and sorority advisor sat in the study room, waiting for me.
“Hi, Ella,” she said with a smile as I settled into the chair across from her, draping my powder blue pea coat across the back.
