Here is an unedited sneak peek. Enjoy!:
I made my way out of the bathroom
and instantly felt like I crashed into a brick wall. The last thought that ran
through my head was that I was going to look like a complete idiot landing flat
on my ass before a pair of strong arms wrapped around my waist and I was pulled
against a very hard chest. “Whoa, if you wanted me that badly you didn’t need
to throw yourself at me, sweetheart. I’d be pretty willing.”
I looked up, meaning to tell off
the arrogant asshole who thought I would actually throw myself at someone but
all words ceased to exist when I looked up into a pair of startling gray eyes.
He pulled me closer when I failed to say anything and pushed me lightly against
the wall so our bodies were flush with each others.
I caught the glint of a lip ring as
he turned to stare down at me with an intense gaze that set my body on fire. He
wasn’t the normal type of guy I went for. One arm was covered in an array of
colorful tattoo’s and from what I could tell, he had multiple piercings. Who
knew how many others there were under the tight gray V-neck and black shorts he
had on? For some reason, I really wanted to find out.
“You don’t look familiar. What’s
your name, sweetheart?”
“Della,” I managed to whisper out.
Why in the hell was I so nervous around this guy? I had no reason to be, he was
the one who should be worshipping at my feet. Right?
“Della.” My name rolled off of his
tongue before he ran a thumb over my cheek and dropped his hand down to his
side. “I like it. The names Justin and I think you and I were meant to be. Want
to get out of here?” Whatever fog had been cluttering my mind, suddenly cleared
and I shook my head, pushing at his chest as I stood up taller even though he
still had to look down as he towered over me.
“Seriously? That was about the
lamest pick up line I’ve ever heard. No thank you, Justin.” I turned to walk
away but he jumped in front of me and held up a finger. “Wait, that didn’t come
out right. I don’t know what the fuck is wrong me, normally I’m a whole lot
smoother at this.”
“So normally you pick up girls a
lot easier? Good for you.” I crossed my arms over my chest and let out a loud
sigh when he still didn’t move.
“C’mon, Della. Let me buy you a
drink at least, I’m really not that bad of a guy. Give me a chance?” His
eyebrows knitted together as he waited for my response and I was just about to
tell him where he could stick that drink, when I caught site of the table where
Nash and Mariah were looking awfully cuddly. Apparently they had made up. It
made my stomach coil just at the thought of having to sit there and watch the
two of them together.
“Fine, follow me.” Surprisingly, he did and by
the time we got back to the table with the drink he had promised me, Callie,
Drew, and Zoey were also back, looking slightly uncomfortable by Mariah’s presence.
Callies eyes widened as Justin
situated himself next to me and she kept looking back and forth between the two
of us in utter confusion. I introduced Justin to everyone and he stood up to
shake everyone’s hand before sitting back down next to me and leaning in,
brushing his lips against my ear. “Can you say awkward? Want to dance?”
Della and _____ song, you'll have to read to see exactly who else!
