She was too proud.
“You’ll still come tomorrow, right?” Aiden asked.
“I’ll be there, what time?”
They both looked over at Fallon as she stood there blinking. What the hell was going on?
“Mom, what time is my game tomorrow?”
Oh no, oh no, oh no, Lucas could not go tomorrow.
“Why?” Fallon asked to buy herself time to figure out an excuse on why Lucas couldn’t come.
Maybe they could just skip the whole game?
“Lucas wants to come,” Aiden answered. Fallon looked over and saw that Lucas was eyeing her.
Shit!
“Um, well it’s at one.”
“So you’ll be there?” Aiden asked again, and Lucas nodded.
“Yup bud, I’ll see you then.”
“Aiden honey, play on my computer. I’m gonna walk Lucas out,” Fallon said, moving out from her behind her desk. She stopped, grabbing the packet of paperwork for Lucas before turning towards him. “Here,” she said as she basically threw the papers at him. She almost put her shoes on but decided against it since she needed to get Lucas out of there and say what she needed to say.
“Okay,” Aiden said as Fallon shut the door.
“You can’t come tomorrow,” she said as she leaned against it.
An arrogant look came over Lucas face as he leaned his head to the side. “And why is that?”
“Because my parents are coming tomorrow, and I haven’t told them about you.”
Lucas rolled his eyes. “What else is new? They never knew about me before either.”
“Ok smartass, duly noted. Can you not come, please?”
“Oh I’m coming, I already said I am.”
“I’ll make up an excuse, we’ll say you had to work,” Fallon suggested, but Lucas just grinned at her.
“I’m going tomorrow, and if you don’t leave it alone. I’ll wear a shirt that says I’m his dad,” he warned with a gleam of mischief in his smoky eyes.
“You ass,” Fallon sneered, but Lucas just grinned.
“I suggest you tell your parents.”
“I suggest you take your suggestion and stick it up your ass,” Fallon spat out before turning to walk away. She didn’t get far before Lucas grabbed her wrist, whipping her into his arms. She landed against his hard chest with a squeak as he looked down at her with nothing but heat in his eyes.
“You know I love when you talk dirty to me,” he whispered as she tried to get away, but he had her in a death grip.
“Let me go, Lucas,” she complained as she looked up at him.
“How bad do you want me to be hidden tomorrow?”
Fallon stopped trying to move and looked up at him. “Bad.”
“Enough to kiss me?”
Fallon bit her lip as her eyes drifted to his lips. She watched as he licked his lips before she looked up in his eyes, knowing she couldn’t do it. If she kissed Lucas, she wasn’t going to stop. The whole day she thought about him, and not in the ‘Is Aiden okay’ sense, more like the ‘God, I wish I could put aside everything and get naked with Lucas’ sense. She wasn’t proud of it, but hey, she was a horny female.
“Not that bad,” she croaked out.
Lucas scoffed at her. “Come on, a kiss on the lips gets you a hat and glasses. A kiss with tongue, you won’t even see me, only Aiden will.”
Fallon shook her head. “No way, I’ll take my chances with my dad. Now let me go.”
Lucas did what she asked even though they both knew he didn’t want to. They shared a long lust-filled look before Lucas turned and started down the hall. Before he reached the elevator, he looked over his shoulder at her.
“I’ll get you to kiss me again,” he warned.
Fallon scoffed as she put her hands on her hips. “Yeah, in your dreams.”
“I’m already kissing you there, baby girl, but in my dreams your face doesn’t turn that pretty little pink I love so much, so I’m on a mission.”
“What else is new?” she got out, but not without a hitch in her voice.
Lucas gave her a little smirk before turning to wait for the elevator to open. The doors opened and Lucas stepped on, giving her one more lust-filled glance before the doors shut. Fallon let out the breath she was holding as she leaned against the door. Fallon knew she couldn’t hold out much longer and that she had to stay away from Lucas, or he would complete that damn mission he was on.
**********************************
When the doorbell rang the next day, Fallon’s stomach sank. Before she could even get off the couch, Aiden was down the stairs with the door open.
“Grandpa! Grammie!” Aiden hollered as he wrapped his arms around Fallon’s parents.
“Well look at you, ready to play some ball?” Nora asked as they entered, grinning down at Aiden. Aiden posed proudly in his Cubs uniform. Fallon loved how the blue of the shirt brought out the color of his eyes. He was such a cute little thing.
“I am!” Aiden exclaimed as William picked him up, throwing him over his shoulder as he walked towards Fallon. Aiden let out a shriek as William threw him down on the couch with a grin on his face.
“Good, gotta hit something today son, okay?”
“Okay Grandpa!” Aiden said. Fallon looked up the stairs to see Audrey coming down in her ‘Aiden’s AA’ shirt.
“Hey Momma, hey Daddy,” Audrey said with a wave as she leaned against the couch, putting stuff in her bag.
