Never Enough - By Ashley Johnson Page 0,81

tattoos…he definitely made my heart cut flips. Was that even possible? I mean I am on the rebound. Everything with Trevor just happened and Luke and I just met last night, but there’s just something there I can’t deny. Maybe it’s all the innocence he seems to have. The ride was silent for the most part except for the radio. I quietly sang along to calm my nerves.

“You didn’t tell me you sang.” Luke watched me with mischievous eyes.

“Only if you count singing in the car or the shower and occasional karaoke.” I let out a small laugh and parked the car by his. He drove a hella nice black Dodge Challenger and he left it here? If I would have known, my car would have definitely stayed behind.

“Nice.” He smiled. “Where do you sing karaoke at?”

Great, here came all the twenty one questions and I had my jaw dropped staring at his car. “Well my uncle owns The Lounge and I used to help run it. When I wasn’t working I sang and got to enjoy myself like anyone else.”

“What do you mean used to help run it?”

Ugh. I really didn’t want to have to tell someone I just met my whole past story. Especially the parts that involved Trevor. “It’s a long story.” I took a deep breath prepared to let him in on why I no longer spent time at The Lounge then I felt a hand on my thigh.

“Sorry, it’s probably not my business. I didn’t mean to pry.”

“No, it’s no problem at all. I just was involved with the guy from the bar last night and his band plays there. Long story short, we dated, I got pregnant, he proposed, I miscarried, he cheated, I caught him and we are no more. I choose not to go inside the bar.”

I had to take a deep breath after saying all that and I just looked straight ahead. “I’m so sorry. Well really I’m not because I wouldn’t have gotten to meet you.” Shit, I was blushing profusely. This was crazy. “He was stupid to let you go.” He lifted my chin and our mouths met. Christ Almighty, I could really get used to these lips. I made a mental note to thank Trevor for sleeping with Taylor. I think I could forgive him after all. “When can I see you again Macy?”

Did I mention I had just met Luke last night? The butterflies were insane! This was all new to me, he was new. I tried to catch my breath so I could maybe speak but it took a moment. Those green eyes lit me on fire. “Whenever you want.” Why couldn’t I just say tomorrow? Or any other day for crying out loud?

He let out a small chuckle and handed me his phone. “Will you put your number in for me?” I typed in my number and handed it back to him. “I told you I never do stuff like this, but in your case I’m glad I took that risk.” He kissed my cheek and I turned to meet his lips.

“I’m glad I took it too.”

“I’ll call you later?” He had so much hope in his eyes. How could I resist that?

“Of course. Better hope I gave you the right number!” We shared a brief hug and he got out of the car. I watched him walk to his car, admiring his back side as he walked. Holy cow. I think I was a changed woman.

Before he got into his car he walked back up to mine and poked his head in the window. “I’d hope you gave me the right number. Guess I’ll find out later.” He winked at me and the walked back to his car.

The apartment was literally right up the road and I rode in silence with the biggest grin on my face. Luke had already sent one text telling me again how he had such a good time and he was happy I didn’t give him the wrong number. I parked my car and locked the doors. I saw Halley’s car too, I was happy to see her. I opened the door and she stood in the kitchen.

“Hey there stranger!” She walked up to me and looked me up and down. “You had sex last night didn’t you? I smell cologne. Is he hot?”

I burst out laughing. “Smoking Hales. Like you would not believe! And I’m not telling.”

She hit my arm and laughed. “Fine don’t tell but you already
