“Lucian?”

“Mmm?”

It was three o’clock in the morning. Dyvian had called half an hour ago, informing Lucian he was staying over at a friend’s house up in DV. I had begged Lucian to sleep with me, and he gave in when I finally threatened to tell him more about my ex.

I pushed myself to my elbows so I could see his face. His brows were just the tiniest bit furrowed. He was thinking about something again. And with Lucian, that something could be anything from the real estate market conditions in Idaho to my love-and-hate-relationship with Chemistry. I loved physical chemistry, but the scientific sort hated me.

He coughed a little. It sounded a little too much like he was trying to hide his laughter but I doubt it. There was nothing to laugh about. “Are you okay?”

“Just thinking.”

“Stop thinking,” I urged, unable to help sounding petulant. I wanted us to savor our first night together, even though it was sickeningly innocent. I didn’t want him to try predicting stock market trends while he was with me. Right now, his topmost priority was supposed to be thinking about how pretty I was, how nice it was to have me next to him, and how soon he should have been kissing me.

“Lucian.” I shook his arm until his eyes finally met mine. I was surprised to see him smiling slightly. “What are you smiling about?” I demanded, frowning.

He ruffled my hair. “Nothing.”

“No, tell me.”

He looked at me for one unreadable moment. “Tell you what. Let me know what you think I’m thinking, and I’ll tell you if you’re right.”

“You’ll let me guess until I get it right?”

“I’ll give you three guesses.”

“Deal.” I sat up, locking my knees under my chin, scrutinizing his every expression. Staring at him, it was easy to get distracted. Lucian really was beautiful. The way his hair fell against his forehead, the shine in his eyes—

“Deli.” Lucian sighed.

I colored, realizing I had been caught daydreaming. “Sorry.”

“Well? Give me a guess.”

“You’re thinking about…me?” I was joking so I was stunned when he nodded, an approving smile curving on his face.

My eyes widened. “You are?”

“Yes.”

I gulped. He sounded too serious. “Is it bad?” I ventured in a small voice. My imagination overflowed with pessimistic thoughts. “You think what happened is a huge mistake, don’t you? You probably think—”

He pressed his fingers to my mouth. “Sshh.” His lips twitched. “Stop being so melodramatic.” His voice lowered. “I love it that I finally got to kiss you. I’d never trade it for anything.” He pulled away and leaned back against the headboard. “But that wasn’t what I was thinking.”

The sweet words and the tender smile on his face gave me hope.

“Another guess?”

I became excited. “I know.” Now, why hadn’t I thought of this before?

His eyes widened in alarm.

I smirked. He probably knew I had guessed the truth. “You’re in love—” I couldn’t continue with his mouth suddenly covering mine.

Never the type to refuse something I wanted, I reached out to him but he was already pulling away after the briefest touch of our lips.
