The Badboy's Steamy Book

CHAPTER SIX

LUCIA

I stand completely still and in disbelief of my horrible luck , just when I thought it was going to be easy avoiding Joshua , here he is , standing right in front of me, looking as if it is the funniest thing on earth , meanwhile his father is right beside him with his signature politician grin.

Mia starts looking back and forth between him and me , with a confused look , until realization is clear on her face and she gasps before covering her mouth with her hand.

“ It’s him, isn’t it? ” she whispers and I just nod , unable to utter a single word.

“ And that’s his father next to him? He must be , I am so stupid , when you told me that his family was involved in politics I should have known you were referring to Governor Arlington’s son ” she says while we start heading towards our first lecture.

“ Do you think he is going to be a student at this university? ” I ask her already afraid that she will confirm my suspicions.

“ Well , while I was being smothered to death by those idiots, I did hear his father saying that he was honored that his son was following his steps, or some made-up s**t of that sort”

“ I can’t believe I’m this unlucky! Of all the places he can go , he had to choose this university! ” I say with annoyance

“ Maybe he wants to become a lawyer or a politician like his dad? ” Mia says while jumping to avoid stepping on the street lines.

“ No, I don’t think so , he had always hated that kind of life , his passion it’s playing the piano ”

“ Lu, you haven’t talked to him or see him in three years, a lot can change in such a long time , and for what you have told me over the phone, apparently his new passion is women and boost ”

“ You are right, he had changed a lot even before he left , maybe he is slowly turning into his father”

“ Mmmm Hmmm ” Mia says with a mischievous smile

“ What? ” I snarl

“ Nothing! It’s just that you were right and he is pretty hot , so if he is turning into his father , then I will have to admit that he is going to be one hell of a silver fox if you know what I mean ” she answers wiggling her eyebrows

“ Oh my god! Gross! ” I almost yell with disgust

“ Oh, don’t be such a prudie , the Governor is hot , even you have to admit that”

“ No, he is definitely not! Mia I’ve told you what a bad person he is, please stop fantasizing about him , it makes me sick to my stomach”

“ Okay, fine! ” she says rolling her eyes “ What are you going to do now that your lover / enemy is going to be so close to your home and at your same university? ”

“ I don’t know, I can’t hide under a rock and wait for everything to happen , so I guess I will have to deal with him when the time comes, but I don’t think he is going to be interested in me, especially not with an army of fans behind him ”

“ Oh Lu, you are so clueless! ” she says with fake concern

“ What do you mean?” I ask her

“ Didn’t you see the way he was looking at you ?”

“ Yes, with mockery , he must think is funny that I’m here so he can humiliate me a little more ”

“ No silly!” Mia says shaking her head and laughing “ He was looking at you as if you were the last piece of lemon pie on the counter”

JOSHUA

When I saw Lucy with that shocked look on her face it made me feel happy for some reason , to know that I am still able to mess with her head and cause some sort of commotion on her. But then , she seemed angry , so she grabbed her friend's arm and started walking away while telling her something I didn’t get to understand from where I was standing.

My father noticed my stare on her and immediately tensed up beside me, he grabbed my arm with a little too much force than necessary and whisper to me without losing that stupid grin on his face “ Careful there Joshua, I don’t want to find out that you are coming even near that girl, remember she is a part of the staff’s family and is not worthy of being friends with people like us”

I glanced at him with shock, anger, and disgust and was about to say something , but he cut me off saying “ Remember we have a deal, you need to do this and obey me while the campaign is over and then I will pay for your stupid piano classes, but don’t test me Joshua , or it will be a lot worse than just boarding school” and then he smiled to the people gathered around us like we were just having a precious father-son moment just now.

I knew it withing me that staying away from Lucy was the best thing for me and especially for her , but I couldn’t take her out of my head, as much as I tried to focus on different things, I even f****d Kate, Zara’s friend last Friday after my first encounter with Lucy , in an attempt to take her out of my mind, it was quite easy, since Kate kept hinting on me , but everything I could think the entire time I was banging Kate, was Lucy , I kept picturing her looking at me with those beautiful eyes of her, while going down on me, and doing all the things I was doing to Kate.

Later that weekend, when I was adding Kate’s name to my little book , I had this overwhelming need to add Lucy’s as well, I needed to f**k her , one kiss three years ago in the middle of a bet wasn’t enough.

With that in mind, I casually asked my mother about her, and I was surprised of how willing to talk and how well informed my mom was , apparently she and Marina have been talking about us the entire time I was abroad; and the conversation with my mother turned out to be the most interesting thing I have heard in years.

She told me all about how Lucy focused solely on helping her mother and her little brother, and also that since she was 16 she has had one or two part-jobs at the same time she was studying , so that let her little room for boyfriends , and that her mother was worried about her lack of social life. She also filled me in about her current situation, the university where she was studying to become a veterinarian, which didn’t surprise me at all, considering how good she is with all the animals; my mom also told me that she helped her get a job at the country club my family has had a membership for generations, and apparently , there’s a boy there who seems interested in her but she doesn’t even give him the chance to go out together regardless of how many times her mom has insisted on it.

I don’t know why , but that information came as a welcome breeze of fresh air to me, it settled an estrange sensation of calmness within me, but then it got me thinking that the fact her mom knows nothing about her love life could be for one of two reasons: One, she is really good at hiding boys and romance from her family, which only meant that she isn’t doing anything good, or two , she has never had a boyfriend or a relationship serious enough to tell her mother about it, and that could mean she is still a virgin.

I hope it’s the latter because that would make her the crowning jewel in my little collection, which means that I need to get her , no matter what.
