Trying to Score

Yup, Fallon was pretty sure she just came.
“Oh my goodness, you’re disgusting! Why are you messing with me?!”
Lucas gave her a lopsided grin. “For one, it’s so easy to, and I love the blush that goes on your face and for two, I want you Fallon. Bad.”

That dumbfounded her, he wasn’t mad? “Even after everything?”
He was quiet for a moment. “You know, I thought when I came over here we would have a screaming match, but I’m not mad at you. I’m hurt, but I can let it go because I’m going to know my son and I’m going to change the way you think of me.”
“Okay,” she said in a mocking voice. She didn’t believe him for a minute, even if her body screamed for him.
“Don’t underestimate me, Fallon,” he warned with a cute little grin.
“I know you Lucas. This little act you’re putting on about wanting to be a dad will last until you find a woman that will f**k you seven days to Sunday, and then you’ll leave Aiden behind ‘cause y’all will be having babies.”
Lucas shook his head. “You are delusional. I don’t want any other female but you and now that I know about Aiden, I will be his dad.”
“Okay, sure. I’ll believe it when I see it,” she said breathlessly.
Oh, this was not good. She couldn’t let him know that him wanting to be with her made her heart beat like a jackhammer against her chest, or that her panties were basically soaked after being under his lust-filled gaze.
Fallon looked up at him and their eyes met, sharing a heated look. Their emotions were high as they both took in deep breaths, still staring into each other eyes. She could get lost in his eyes and hated that she let him affect her like this. He had her hot one minute, freaking out about him taking Aiden another, and then to the point of wanting the knock his head off because he thought he could change what she thought of him! He was the exact same person!
The perfect manipulator!
When he looked away, Fallon took in a jagged breath as he asked, “Does he know about me?”
Fallon shook her head, still trying to catch her breath. “No, I told him that his daddy was too busy to be a daddy, but that he loved him very much and that he was lucky to be loved by someone that he didn’t even know.”
Lucas face flushed with anger. “I would never be too busy for my son.”
“Well you got busy with my best friend, so I just went with that.”
Lucas shook his head as he looked off to the side, and she swore he was going to start yelling but he didn’t. He just asked, “You are not going to let that go, are you?”
“Not today,” Fallon answered as their eyes met. “Don’t hope for tomorrow neither.”
“Fallon, what can I do to make it right? What can I say? I don’t want you to keep throwing that in my face, I want us to move on.”
Fallon shrugged her shoulders, “I’ve been angry for seven years, how do I just move on? Don’t I have to forgive you?”
“It would be nice,” he said with a small smile.
Fallon looked away. “I don’t know if I can.”
“Can you try?”
She shook her head. “I don’t know.”
“Okay,” Lucas said, irritated. Seven years and she was still angry? Come on, get real, let it go, Lucas thought as he watched her moving her fingers through her hair. “I’m really sorry about that night Fallon. There are a lot of things that you don’t know, and I need to tell you.”
Fallon shook her head. “I don’t want to know.”
“Yes you do, not today but give me a chance to explain what was wrong, what I was dealing with,” Lucas pleaded. “I swear I’m not that person anymore. I was f**ked up back then, not my true self.”
Her eyes shot up as her face filled with anger. “So what, everything between us wasn’t real?”
“No baby, everything was real, everything. I was myself when I was with you,” he pleaded.
“So what? I don’t get it,” she asked with so much sass in her voice. He swore she was the queen of sassiness, and he was getting fed up with it.
“Fallon, you know what I don’t get?”
Fallon gave him a pointed look. “What’s that?”
“Why you didn’t tell me I have a son.”
Fallon looked away, moving her hands up and down her thighs. “I didn’t think you could be a dad. I was scared out of my mind. I didn’t know what to do but I knew that I didn’t want anything to do with you.”
“So you let one mistake keep me away from my child?”
“That one mistake was sorta big. Hello, it broke my heart,” Fallon answered.
“So you did it to hurt me? I find that hard to believe,” Lucas said as he continued to look deep into her eyes.
“Because I didn’t do it to hurt you. I had every intention of telling you. I mean, I named him after you and your dad. I gave him your last name. But every time I went to call and tell you, I couldn’t. I was scared that you would reject us. You had already rejected me.”
Lucas shook his head, getting madder by the minute. “I didn’t reject you, and I would never reject our child. I loved you. I wanted to be with you. You are the one that left without even giving me a chance to explain.”
“I left because you cheated.”
“I didn’t mean to! I was drunk and high, Fallon! I was f**ked up.”
“Oh my goodness, you’re disgusting! Why are you messing with me?!”
Lucas gave her a lopsided grin. “For one, it’s so easy to, and I love the blush that goes on your face and for two, I want you Fallon. Bad.”
