Underneath the current shorts and t-shirt that I’m wearing, I decided to put on a black bikini that I bought with Lex before summer because of our Hot Girl Summer. I guess we became distracted by other plans.
“I don’t believe in soulmates. Ryan kind of ruined that notion for me,” I say, ripping open a honey-coated granola bar and taking a large bite out of it. I can eat tons of this stuff all day long.
“Forget that idiot,” Lex is saying. “He is such old news. I mean why are we even talking about him? His name is banned from our house. It’s banned from your mind. Banned!”
I’m trying to listen to what sense Lex is trying to make, but my phone vibrates again on the countertop and I swipe to open the screen. Speaking of Mephistopheles himself, I see twelve new messages from Ryan.
What did he want now? Just the person to spoil my day.
I go into the messages and frown as the messages pop up one after the other each angrier than the next.
I’ve been trying to call u since last night —R
Where r u? —R
Lex told me about that guy you’re seeingHudson… —R
Parker answer your fucking phone —R
Do you think our relationship is a joke? People are fucking laughing at us —R
I love how he insinuates that he and I are still very much a couple in his last text. But what irks me is that Lex is sharing my private life.
“What did you tell Ryan about Hudson?” I ask as I chew the last bit of my granola, before discarding the wrapping paper in the trash.
“Nothing.” She yawns while pulling her dark purple hair into a ponytail. “Just that you moved on because he wouldn’t stop texting me. I’m about to file for a restraining order on him. I know he was your ex Parker, but seriously, the dude has issues.”
“I know. I’m sorry, I’ll deal with him,” I say and hug her from the back. “He’s such a jerk.
Lex kisses me on the forehead and I grab my backpack as a guy walks out of Lex’s room and into the living room.
“Kyle, Parker,” Lex introduces us. “Parker, Kyle.”
Kyle is a tall, lanky, dark-haired dude with a Tom Holland kind of look going on. He’s definitely Lex’s type. The red lipstick stains on his face say it all: Virgin. Lex must have had a lot of fun.
Lex has a weird strategy in which she takes a guys virginity because she says it sets the universal bar straight with who gets to take the virginity. And when Lex starts to get touchy about certain subjects, it’s best to leave her and her strange logic alone.
“Hi, it’s nice to meet you, Parker,” he says groggily as he stands there in just his Donald Duck boxer shorts with an unmistakable problem. His boner is poking through his shorts.
This must be that awkward moment in a book or movie in which the author or director will make a desperate exit for me: The embarrassed main character.
“Hey,” I say. “It was nice to meet you too and I hope we can do this again, but I really have to go. Have fun!” I turn to Lex who’s barely keeping her laugh in and I mouth her good luck before leaving the apartment.
It’s a warm summer’s day out in the streets of Manhattan. People are out, soaking up the sun, having lunch, shopping and just living life. I wait patiently as I check my watch and then I hear the powerful roar of an engine. Right on time.
I look up to see the shiny, black Lamborghini cruising down the street until it stops directly in front of me.
The door is pushed open and I jump in to find Hudson’s sexy grin plastered across his gorgeous face.
He’s wearing a casual black t-shirt that’s loose on him and dark blue jeans with a pair of Hollywood style shades that hide his pretty green eyes.
“Hey,” he says, as he leans over and slips his warm hand around the back of my neck to bring me closer and casually kisses me on the lips.
I find myself kissing him back and discover that his lips are soft and warm today.This is perfect,I think.He is perfect.
There’s something so nice and calming about being around Hudson and whatever it is, I don’t want it to end.
His tongue slips into my mouth and my heart starts beating faster as his fingers trace the base of my throat.
