Chapter Three

Alana rolled over in bed and stared at the swirling chrome pattern of the headboard. Her head felt fuzzy, as if she’d had too much to drink. But that wasn’t the problem. A post- orgasmic haze shouldn’t last hours, but he’d been sleeping for at least two and she still felt tingly.

How the heck could Nicky, the boy who’d actually read all the assigned books in English— who’d actually enjoyed them— be the only man who’d ever really rocked her world?

Her cell went off and she reached out blindly, dragging it to her ear before Nicky woke. The guy needed his sleep. He’d been inside her enough times during the night he deserved his own personal access code.

“Yeah?”

“Hello to you too.”

“Kelly.” Relief tumbled through her as she glanced back to make sure she wasn’t being overheard. Right now her lost night with Nicky was hers alone. If he knew she was talking to Kelly, he’d probably ask for the phone. Hell, they’d probably have a nerdgastic reunion. “Are you okay?”

“Yeah, no thanks to you.”

After offering Kelly a profusion of hushed apologies, Alana listened to her friend tap dance around her own whereabouts. Since she had no desire to be any more forthcoming, she let it slide. But when Kelly finally got to the point of the call, Alana couldn’t answer quickly enough.

“I can’t come pick you up. I don’t have my car. I’m sorry. I’ll make it up to you, Kel.”

Wait a second. Wasn’t she supposed to be changing her ways and not only thinking of herself? Too bad for her if she wasn’t ready to face reality yet.

The reality was she’d slept with Nicky, a guy she’d once used to make another man jealous. The man she’d wanted to love, one who was socially acceptable. It was sobering to recognize how attuned she was to public opinion, but she was. Or she had been.

Alana’s attention- deficit disorder, her stepfather had called it. Except hers meant she couldn’t stand to be ignored for a nanosecond.

If that wasn’t enough, she’d craved acceptance. She’d intended to date the captain of the football squad, not the president of the chess team.

But seriously, did any of that matter anymore?

They’d graduated eight years ago. Wasn’t it time she grew up? By now some of the popular crowd probably needed hair replacement therapy. So what if Nicky didn’t yearn for excitement? There was more to life than seeking thrills. He was a decent guy with an incredibly enthusiastic cock. He didn’t even mind that she was a bit of a drama queen. What more could she ask for?

Kelly had yet to stop pleading on the other end of the phone, oblivious to Alana’s mental anguish.

“Kel, I can get my … friend to come pick you up. Let me wake him—”

“You know I can’t stand Ramon. I’ll find my own ride.”

“But—”

“You owe me, Lan. You promised me a great time and you reneged.”

“So we’ll go back to Kink tonight and try again. Okay?”

“But there was a raid last night.
