“A kiss! Oh my goodness! Just want I needed! Come here and give me that sugar!” Fallon exclaimed as Aiden threw himself into her lap, wrapping his arms around her neck before he covered her with sticky kisses. Fallon giggled along with Aiden and Audrey and couldn’t have felt more loved.
“Goodness me, did AA give you a sticky bun this morning?”
Both Audrey and Aiden had guilty looks on their faces before Aiden stuffed the flower in her face, trying to distract her. “I got you a flower Momma!”
“And I got you coffee!” Audrey joined in.
Fallon laughed as she took her sweet gifts from her two favorite people. “Well thank you very much, but y’all are still in trouble! No sticky buns Audrey! You know that!” she scolded jokingly. She wasn’t really mad, she couldn’t be. They had brought her gifts and kisses!
“But Mom…” Aiden complained.
“Yeah Mom, he was hungry. I don’t do well when he puts his sad eyes on. They get me every time.”
Fallon shook her head before she kissed Aiden loudly on the cheek. “No more sad eyes for your AA, she forgets that she is 27 years old and needs to keep your teeth clean,” Fallon said as she cut Audrey a look. Audrey looked away as Aiden nodded.
“Yes ma’am.”
“Okay good, now y’all gotta go before you’re late for school!” Fallon said before covering Aiden in kisses. “Have a great day?”
“Duh, I’m awesome!”
Fallon and Audrey laughed as Aiden gave them a cocky grin. “I’ve been saying that since you were born, come on kid. Let’s roll!” Audrey said as Aiden jumped off Fallon’s lap. “Good luck today, sissy.”
“Thanks, I love you both.”
“We love you,” they both said. Then they looked at each other before breaking out in a fit of giggles as they left.
“Crazy kids,” Fallon said with the biggest grin ever on her face. “Well that sure did make my day,” she said out loud as she went back to preparing for the meeting.
The morning was going quickly and it was almost time for her to go when her phone dinged from Rob calling her.
“Yeah?” she asked as she slid her shoes on.
“Um, some guy is on line one. He said his name is Lucas Brooks and that you know who he is?”
It was like her legs had come out from underneath her and she fell back into her chair. How the hell did he get this number?It isn’t that hard Fallon, Yellow Pages? Duh! She thought as she sat with her mouth hanging open.
“Fallon?”
Fallon took a deep breath, she had to tell him to leave her alone or she was going to lose her mind.
“Yeah, sorry, um. Don’t transfer him, ever. I want you to repeat exactly what I say okay?”
Rob sounded worried as he said, “Um…okay?”
 
*****************************************
Lucas sat in his car outside the practice rink, waiting for Fallon to answer. Levi had come through and gotten him Fallon’s work number. It took 20 minutes to figure out which number was Fallon’s but he finally got it and some guy claiming to be her assistant answered. Another five minutes passed before the guy came back on the line.
“Um, I’m sorry Mr. Brooks, but I’ve been told to tell you,” the guys took a deep breath and Lucas swore he heard him praying for forgiveness, “She said to tell you to f**k off and never call this number again.”
Lucas laughed out loud while the poor guy sat there in complete confusion. So Fallon could still be feisty as hell.
Awesome.
“What was your name?” Lucas asked.
“Rob?”
“Rob, do me a favor, tell your angry boss that I will see her and that when I do, I will be cleaning that mouth out and if she’s lucky it’ll be with my tongue.”
Lucas hung up without saying bye and just laughed. He loved Fallon’s angry side; it made him hard for days because she hardly got mad. When she did, he tried so hard to make her happy again just to get her in bed. Just one cuss word out that pretty mouth of hers and he was ready. Hell, she still turned him on and she hadn’t even said it — Rob did — but just the thought of her saying it did it for him.
His phone rang and Levi’s picture came up, interrupting his fantasy of Fallon saying very dirty things to him in bed. He let out a frustrated breath and answered the phone. “Hey bro.”
“Hey, did you talk to her?”
“Nope, she told her assistant to tell me to f**k off.”
“Hmm, so new Fallon is angry. I like it,” Levi laughed.
“She’s always had a little angry side. I love it.”
“I bet you do. Anyway, you need to get home and get your crap. The bus is leaving in an hour.”
“I’m on my way.”
Lucas hung up the phone and was grateful with how no one had really said anything about Levi always being with him. No one minded that Levi rode on the bus with the guys or that he was always in the locker room. He was just there, and no one said anything. It was awesome.
Lucas put the car in drive and started for the house. He was still on fire from just being so close to hearing Fallon’s beautiful sweet voice. He couldn’t wait until he did, and he stood by his word. When he saw her, he would clean that mouth out.
With his tongue, he hoped.
**************************************************
I will see you and when I do, I will be cleaning that mouth out and if you’re lucky it’ll be with my tongue.
