Tell Me You Want Me Read Online Free PDF Page A

brilliant." Sara snapped her book shut and peered over the top of her glasses at her friend. "All he has to do is find you in the yearbook."
    "I doubt he has one, and I'm sure he has no idea where the library is."
    Jane and Sara spent most of their free time in the library, even when they weren't studying, but they rarely saw any of the football players there.
    "True," Sara agreed, smirking, "but he can find you on the soccer team's website."
    "Oh my God, I hate that picture." Jane held her book up to her face as if that would hide her. "I forgot about that."
    "So now you have to sleep with him." Sara cringed.
    " I never said anything about sleeping with him." She searched her memory to be sure. " He did." Her face got warm when she remembered his "castle whore" comment, but even though Jane usually told Sara everything, including her plans for her dream career, she decided to be careful in this instance. "I said he had to take me on a real date."
    "Did you tell him you've never had one before?"
    "I've had dates," Jane protested. She focused more on school than her social life, but that didn't mean she'd never dated.
    "Did you tell him you've never had sex before?"
    "I have, too."
    Sara frowned, took off her glasses, and rubbed her eyes. "Clumsy McWhatshisname does not count."
    "Yes he does." No he didn't. The memory of her first and only sexual experience lasted longer than the encounter itself—quick, awkward, and not much fun. "Do you think it matters?"
    Jane didn't know why she worried about it. She didn't plan on having sex with Austin, but then, she'd never planned on going out with him either.
    "No," Sara said. "He just wants to get laid."
    "He can do that anytime. He doesn't need to go to the trouble of taking me out on a date to get lucky." Wait, that doesn't sound quite right.
    Sara frowned and flipped through another book. "Guys like him like variety. You're something new, and right now, you're a challenge. As soon as a pretty new face comes along, he'll forget all about you."
    "Yeah, I know." She really couldn't expect anything more from Austin. "Still, it could be fun while it lasts."
    Why not just enjoy it for a change? Maybe her second time would be better. He did tell her they were going to have a lot of fun together.
    Sara sighed. "He won't fall in love with you. He's a heartbreaker."
    "I don't expect him to fall in love with me. I know better than that. I just want to have a little fun with him. You're the one who told me I need to have more fun."
    "Oh, it'll be fun... till he breaks your heart." Sara scowled at Jane. "And then what will you do?"
    "Enjoy it while it lasts and appreciate it for what it is." She squared her shoulders and picked up her book, hiding the uncertain smile on her face. Having more fun... good idea. Having fun with Austin Sinclair...?
    ***
    Now that he knew her name, how the hell was he going to find her? Austin looked in all the places he usually met girls, but he'd never seen her in a bar or a classroom before, so why would she be there now? He had to be missing something. Think, Austin. Where would a Bayfield Dean's List academic scholarship soccer player hang out?
    The library, dumbass. Just like Natalie had in high school. Great. Where's the library again? He couldn't remember the last time he'd gone there, having avoided all libraries after his breakup with Nat.
    A couple of wrong turns sent him in circles, but he finally found the building. It looked a lot bigger than he remembered—three floors and stacks and stacks of books. She'd better be worth it. Just fun—no promises. He smiled, determined to make it worth his time and effort—no matter what.
    It took him nearly half an hour, but he finally found her in the basement, searching the stacks for a book that somehow eluded her. Her fingers crawled across worn spines as if touching the books might reveal the one she wanted. She didn't look up, so he leaned against the bookshelf and watched her. Her glasses were perched on
