Chapter 37

(Stacey)

She just finished her shower but until now she can't seem to get over what Nick said. Looks like all he does is cause her trouble since they met. She has to shake off thoughts of him and do more important things like calling Derick. He has a lot of missed calls.

She was about to get her phone when it started ringing. She smiled when she saw his name on the screen.

"Hello." she huskily answered.

She is guilty because she felt a little giddy when Nick said he likes and wants her. But she should not dwell on that now because Derick is on the phone.

"Honey, why didn't you answer my calls?" he asked in a gruff voice.

"Sorry, I forgot my phone in the car."

She bit her bottom lip because she shouldn't have said that. Knowing Derick, he will ask many questions.

I won't lie to him . I will tell him that I was out with Blake but I will omit some parts. She thought.

(Nick)

He knitted his brows. This is a good chance to test her honesty.
