It Was Always You (Gaming The System) - Plot & Excerpts
Lucas asked in our little corner of the living room over spiked hot chocolate. “I grew up with Jeremy. He and my brother were best friends in high school. We ended up going to different schools but he came down after graduation to work at Draco. I go to UCI. So…we started hanging out again.” “You two dated?” I frowned. “Ah…no…no. I was dating someone else.” Date Jeremy? There was a time when I’d wanted to…a long time, actually. But that had been years ago. He hadn’t been interested. And I thought those feelings had gone away until he had shown up again. “So…you were dating someone…and now you’re not?” Wow, subtle he was not. I took another sip of my coffee and studied Lucas. He was a good-looking guy, sandy blond hair, blue eyes. I usually liked my men sultry and dark-haired but…“I was. But not anymore!” He smiled. “Well…good.” I tried not to roll my eyes. The conversation was hardly scintillating but I wasn’t ready to write him off yet. I wasn’t horribly interested but something about what Jeremy had said to me on the front porch had gotten my hackles up.
