Figure Eight (Celtic Knot Book 2) (42 page)
It wasn’t always law that I is interested in. Growing up, I wanted to be a sports agent. I love baseball and football, but law is something that I feel will work for me in the long run, when I do decide I want to settle down and start a family.
This winter weather here is a lot worse than back home. It makes me so damn tired and I want to hibernate like a damn grizzly bear. I woke up a little late today and noticed Audrey is already gone. But she left me a note on the kitchen counter. She always leaves little post it notes. I thought it would be odd since that kiss but it hasn’t. I would love for her to be in my bed every night though.
She is too damn sweet; she is always making me food and coffee. I grabbed the bagel and coffee and my bag and headed out the door. As I approach campus, I run into Heather. She and I dated for a month or so. We are just good friends, who used to sleep together. Nothing big, but she wants to introduce me to a classmate.
“Zander, looks like someone is running late.”
“Yeah, I am. Can I catch up with you later, dear?” I say as I try to walk past her.
“Yes. Here, just call her. That’s Hillary’s number.” She says shoving a piece of paper in my back pocket.
“Awesome, thanks.” I say as I make my way down the hall. I know my professor will be livid if I’m more than a half hour late. Making my way through the door, I enter and find a seat. Sure enough, Professor Hendricks spots me. “Fuck” I say to myself. He looks my direction, but doesn’t call me out for being late.
Sitting there, I feel my thought’s drifting to Audrey. I feel myself thinking of her more and more lately. I went the whole damn year trying to push her out of my mind. Not only is she very attractive, but she is smart and funny. Her potty mouth is bad though, real bad.
Looking down, I see that I have a text. It’s from a number I don’t recognize, I open the text to see the words.
Number:
Dinner and Drinks?
Me:
Depends… Who are you?
Number:
I’m all yours for the night.
Me:
Hillary?
Number:
Bingo… That gives you extra points. See you tonight ;)
Heather must have given her my number already. I didn’t really want to take girls back to the loft, knowing that Audrey would be in the next room. So I’ll try to avoid it. Maybe we can go to her place. Hell, I don’t even know if I will like this girl. Heather is always trying to hook me up with someone. She knows how much I want Audrey though and knows exactly where my heart is. That is one of the reasons why she and I never went any further with the feelings she was developing.
