Chapter 3
"What are you talking about Lucas?"
"Your deal with Brandon. I love you. I love you too Samantha." Lucas growled. "And you don't seem that upset about Carrie and Austin."
Sami snorted. "I finally realized how stupid Austin was. I deserve better. And Brandon and I aren't getting back together. I have no interest in Brandon other than he is a friend. Not that it's any of your business. Besides, E.J. and I are together now."
"I forgot about that."
"Obviously. Now, if you'll excuse me, it's been a long day. I'd like to get some sleep."
"Not so fast. I haven't forgotten about what you said when you were on the phone with Brandon."
"What did I say?"
"Don't play innocent with me Sami. I know you know what I'm talking about."
"You're going to have to spell it out for me Lucas because right now I really don't have a clue."
"You do."
"I don't."
"Sami."
"Lucas."
They stared at each other for a long time until Lucas could take it no more and grabbed her, crushing his lips to hers. It was exactly what Sami wanted at the moment so she offered no protest as he lowered her to the ground.
As he started trailing kisses down her neck, common sense reeled in and Sami pushed him away.
"What's the matter?"
"I'm not a cheater. You're married to my sister and I'm with E.J."
"Your sister and I aren't together anymore Sami."
"You're still married. I am NOT a cheater."
At her emphasis, Lucas looked at her and could see the pain and hurt in her eyes. She still couldn't be hurting after all this time had passed, could she?
Before he could say a word, Sami stood up. "I think you should leave."
"But I-"
"We both need some sleep." With that Sami turned and left Lucas feeling more confused and more alone than ever. Plus, he was also without answers in what Sami was up to.
He growled and headed to his room. Tomorrow he promised himself. Tomorrow.
