CHAPTER 21
This is Lexi
Ridge
I am on such a high watching Brooke as she walks to the bathroom. The clothes sheâs holding up to her chest are hiding my almost most favorite spot on her body. Her tits. My number one spot is her ass, and thatâs what Iâm watching with distraction until she closes the door behind her.
I rush to pick up the used but empty condom along with its wrapper. Looking at it is making me hard again. I throw it all in the trashcan under my desk after wrapping it all up in a couple of tissues I found in one of my drawers.
I then move to put the food on the coffee table thatâs to the side of my desk by the couch sitting there. I take the containers out of the bags and place the plastic ware and napkins in between them so that we can start eating as soon as Brookeâs back.
I didnât realize how hungry for food I was until just now when the smell coming from the containers hits my nostrils.
I realize the door to my office is still closed and locked, so I move that way while waiting for Brooke. The instant I throw the door open, I am met with a not so pleasant surprise.
âLexi,â I say in dismay. âWhat are you doing here? And how did you get up here?â
âTommy downstairs let me up. He remembered me, and assumed itâd be okâ¦â She sounds unsure and not like herself at all.
âEverything okay?â I feel compelled to ask. I havenât seen her in the last close to three months now since the disastrous final breakup, and I canât fathom why sheâd want to see me again. She still looks as fit as ever, but just a tad skinnier. She never ate much though, so no surprise there, I guess.
Unless, oh my god, please donât say it, Lexi.
âAre you pregnant?â I hear myself asking her like I have no filter, all while praying that my suspicions are wrong.
âWhat? No!â She sounds offended that I even asked, and I sag against the door in obvious relief. âBut itâs good to know how youâd react if I were,â she teases.
âIâm sorry, Lex, itâs justâ¦â I run my hand through my hair to push it off my face. I need a haircut. âIâm with someone, and itâs serious, and Iâ¦â
âRelax, Ridge, please. Thatâs not why Iâm here at all. Iâm here to ask for your help, not cause any drama in your relationship.â
Just then, I hear the door to the bathroom opening, and Brooke walks out with a happy smile on her face. I put that smile there, and I hope this new development wonât wipe it right off.
She frowns as she approaches us cautiously, unsure of what sheâs just walked into.
âBrooke, this is Lexi, my, um, my ex girlfriend. Lexi, this is Brooke, my girlfriend. Current, I guess,â I finish talking as I fumble my way through the introductions.
âFuck, thereâs no guessing about it. This is my girlfriend, Brooke.
