go and visit them, soon. “How are you doing on money? Do you need me to send you extra?”
I chew on my bottom lip. “Actually, Anna and I are thinking about moving off of campus. She’s found a really nice townhome, but it’s kind of expensive.”
“How much do you ne ed?” Wow, that was easy. “Karma, I’ll pay anything to get you out of those dorms. You know, I don’t like you staying on campus. I think your Mother and I would both sleep better, if we knew you were out of there.” Our dorm is co-ed and it drives my parents crazy. “But, I want to make sure wherever you move, is in a safe neighborhood.”
“I know, Dad. We’ll definitely check it out. I’ll even send you all of the information , once we have it.”
“That sounds really good. Just send me the information, and I’ll send you the money. I have to get back to work now. I’ll talk to you really soon. I love you, Sweetheart.”
“I love you too, D ad.” I turn my phone off, and smile over at Anna. Her smile matches mine. She still has her phone to her ear. “Who were you talking to?” I ask her when she finally hangs up.
“The owner of the town homes. We have an appointment to go look at it, first thing in the morning.” I sigh with relief. I think I’ll be a lot happier off of campus. This is going to be a good thing. It’s time I start living - again!
CHAPTER 13
TRENT
I park my truck next to Jude’s motorcycle. I grab my bag and head up the front steps. I should have just moved in here to begin with. It would have made things a hell of a lot easier.
“Hey , Man.” Jude meets me at the door. “Is this all you have?” he asks, staring down at my bag and guitar.
“Yeah, this is it.” I step around him, and head to the spare bedroom.
He follows behind me. “So, are you going to tell me what happened?” he asks, leaning against the doorframe.
I sit my g uitar down, and toss my bag on the bed. “I got kicked out.”
“Yeah, I kind of figured that much out.” He narrows his eyes at me. “What did you do , to get yourself kicked out?” Wow, he’s really not going to let this go.
I shrug my shoulders. “I beat the shit out of one of the guys.” I turn and look at him. He’s shaking his head at me.
“I thought that’s what happened.” He chuckles and shakes his head at me. “Do you want a beer?”
Okay, so maybe living with Jude won’t be so bad after all. “Sure .” I follow him into the kitchen. He grabs two beers out of the fridge, and passes one to me.
“So, what did the guy do to piss you off?” he asks, tipping his bottle back.
“He shoved a girl onto the ground and was ready to punch her.” I tip my bottle back, and drain half of it.
He nod s his head. “I see.” Jude knows about my past. “That makes sense. Sounds to me like the guy got exactly what he deserved.” I nod my head. “Speaking of girls,” he cocks a brow at me. “There were a couple of hot college girls, checking out the townhouse next to this one.” He tips his bottle back and finishes it off.
“Oh yeah?” I could really care less about girls. There’s only one girl I’m interested in, and I don’t have a fucking clue how to find her. I rub the back of my neck roughly.
“Oh yeah!” He has this cocky grin on his face. “I really hope they get it. I wouldn’t mind having them over for dinner. They’d make a great sex sandwich.” My brother, ladies and gentlemen, the pervert!
“Wouldn’t they be a little young for you?”
He shrugs and grabs us another beer. “Who cares? It’s not like I want to marry them. I just want to fuck them. Besides, if
