My Bully’s Love by Stacy Rush

Chapter 34

CHAPTER 34: FOUND OUT

I wake up to my phone as it pings with a notification. After looking at my alarm clock, I see that it’s already after ten in the morning. ‘Oh crap’, I think to myself as I jump from my bed. I’m having lunch with Jace and I’m needing a shower badly, not to mention having to shave everywhere! Damn, I must have been really exhausted last night in order to be able to sleep in this late, but I guess Jace did wear me out just a tad bit. I smile to myself as the shower spray beats down on me and I scrub everywhere, especially the sore areas. Every time I think of him now, I have nothing but good thoughts and smiles; all those little doubts that would always pop in my head are slowly vanishing.

By the time I’m done getting ready, it’s already almost noon, so I grab my phone and my crossover purse and fly out the door. My mom is passing by the bottom of the stairs, but stops when she sees that I’m in a hurry, and of course, she has to be nosey.

“Where are you off to in such a hurry?”

“I’m going for lunch next door, don’t have time to chat, Mom.”

“Hold it right there, Ella!” Her tone stops me in my tracks.

My mom isn’t one to ever yell at us, but she has that tone that all mothers have that tells you she means business. My mom is using that tone right now, so whatever it is that she wants to talk about, I already know that I’m not going to want to talk about it.

“You and I need to have a chat, and you can’t keep running away from me,” she quirks a brow at me, “I think you know what I’m talking about, Ella.”

“Ugh, do we have to do this right now, Mom? I promise we will talk about it, but I don’t want to be late.” I plead. It’s not like I’m really late, but I don’t feel like discussing this with her just yet.

“Fine, but we are going to talk about it by the end of the weekend!” She smirks and continues in the direction that she was going in when I bounded down the stairs.

I send up a quick prayer that she will forget to bring it up again before I leave, and then I head over to Jace’s house. It feels weird pressing the doorbell; I felt the same way the last time I stopped over to talk to him about my sister going to his party. Growing up, we always just walked into each other’s houses, not once did we knock or ring the bell.

The door whips open and I’m pulled inside so fast that I think I might have gotten whiplash. Suddenly, Jace’s mouth is on mine, taking my breath away from the intensity of the kiss. I wrap my arms around his neck and open my mouth for him, returning it with everything I’ve got. He lifts me and then slams the door, sandwiching me between it and his own hard body. With my legs wrapped around his waist, I can feel his hardness but he doesn’t rub it against me. In fact, he

slows the kiss down before pulling away slowly and gazing deeply into my eyes. He gives me his sexy as sin grin.

“Hey.”

“Hey,” I reply breathless.

“I’m happy to see you.”

“I can tell…” I go to unwrap my legs but he stops me.

Shaking his head, he moves us away from the door and into the kitchen where he sets me on the counter right beside the stove. I peek over to see what’s cooking, and smile; he’s made my favorite dish of Chicken Alfredo.

“You remember!”

“Ella, there isn’t one thing that I have forgotten about you.” He stretches around me to grab the colander from the cupboard, and when he does, he plants a quick little kiss on my cheek.

“What’s my favorite color?” I give him a cheeky smile.

“Unless it’s changed, you could never decide if you like purple or teal better, so both were your favorites.” I watch as he dumps the fettuccini noodles into the colander.
