Keeping Her (The Lexington Series Book 2) Read Online Free PDF Page A

guess why. I took a large gulp before I spoke
again. “So you two girls are just over there living the single life?” I asked.
Yes I know that was fucking corny but I couldn’t just come out and ask her what
I really wanted to know. It would be weird as shit to ask straight out if Lucy
was seeing anyone.
    She scoffed, “I guess you can say
that. We’ve gotten hit on by plenty of guys here but nothing has worked out for
me. She doesn’t even give it a chance. I don’t know her deal cause the guys
love her and she told me she wasn’t seeing anyone but never elaborated anymore.
I don’t get it but I’m trying to change her mind though. I’m confident I can do
it.” A small growl escaped me and I wanted to toss this girl somewhere. How the
fuck dare she try to hook up my girl – I mean Lucy , up with another guy.
She’s going down as an accomplice for murder for setting this shit in motion.
Her brows rose, “are you ok?” she asked. So she had heard it.
    I shrugged, “was just clearing my
throat. Anyway do you cook?” I asked. Yes, ever since Lucy bust out that
spaghetti in the back of my head I thought about all the meals I’ve missed out
on. I wanted to know if she cooked frequently.
    She nodded. “I cook, but my roommate
cooks most of the time. She cooks so much better than I do and she always makes
too much. When I asked her about it she shrugged and said she’s used to feeding
the football team. She laughed but I didn’t get it… but come to think about it,
I’m pretty sure that cute football guy that was at the dorm for her on our
first day has something to do with it. Maybe you know him?” she snapped her
fingers, “He was actually next to you at the party. Big guy built like a truck
with pretty like green hazel eyes.”
    I felt the anger rise. This was just
not fucking cool, “Lucy is not fucking dating Ted.” I told her with a glare.
    She looked startled at my reaction,
but that time I really couldn’t rein it in. I needed to stop with all things
Lucy and just get through this night. Our food came and I asked her to tell me
about herself. As soon as she started talking I zoned out and focused on this
disappointing plate of spaghetti. Why did I torture myself and order it? Lucy
should come teach them how to make it good. I thought of her crying and tried
to figure out what triggered it. I would look up at Naiyla once in a while and
nodded when I realized her lips were moving. Had I made her cry?
    “Landon…?” I heard and focused in on
Naiyla.
    “Yea?” I asked.
    “You aren’t listening. I was talking
to you and you weren’t saying anything so I asked if you prefer men just to see
and you nodded. What’s got you so distracted?” she asked.
    I choked on my food and drank some
lemonade, “I do not like men for the record. And nothing, I’m just not much of
a talker.” I admitted.
    She laughed lightly, “or listener.
Why are you here?” she asked.
    “What do you mean?” I asked her with
a frown.
    “The only conversation you made with
me had to do with me and my roommate who by the way I’m sure you know
because you called her by her name and I never told you. I also know that you
were in our room a hell of a lot earlier from when you knocked on my door. She
also looked hurt and pissed so spill.”
    “Fine. Lucy and I have history, a lot
of fucking history. We live together back home. We were dating but we broke up
a couple of days before moving out here.” I told her with a shrug.
    She smirked, “and you asked me out as
some type of payback I’m sure. I know when a guy is interested and you my
friend are not. So what made you go through all of this?” she asked with a wave
of her hand. She seemed genuinely curious.
    I sighed. “I knew you were her
roommate, my friend from the team Ted told me. He’s from back home by the way
that’s how they knew each other. When you approached me, I thought Lucy told
you to do it or that she was ok with it and it pissed me the fuck
