So I love that people are enjoying Junior Year enough to have already finished it and I can't WAIT to read everyone's reviews but I received a question today that made me think...

The question was: Did Jaden ever tell Jordan what Natasha did because she never came back around after she was exposed.

For those of you that have at least made it to Spring Semester, you know what this is about, but for those that haven't, close your eyes! lol

I picture this conversation happening around Finals Week/Christmas Break time but here it is as a little bonus read for all of your support!

I had to tell him.

I could no longer sit back and watch my brother fall victim to Natasha’s bullshit even though I was just sure it would be the other way around when they first hooked up. I peeked into the door of Jordan’s room and saw him laying on the bed, smiling giddily at his phone. I could hear the voice of a girl coming from the phone, but I couldn’t put my finger on who it belonged to right away.

“Jordy, I don’t know why we keep doing this.”

Jordy?

Only one person in the world called him Jordy and that was his forever boo, Ashley.

“Doing what, beautiful?”

Beautiful?

What the hell is this all about?

I didn’t wanna blow my cover, so I kept listening from the hallway.

“The back and forth like we don’t wanna be with each other. I mean, you know I wanna be with you and...it seems like you wanna be with me so…”

“So, let’s just be together, right?”

“Exactly.”

Oh shit.

They were actually talking about getting back together as if Natasha didn’t exist.

“Well, look Ash. I’ve been thinking about it and...though I do wanna be with you, I’ve got so much going on with school and getting ready for graduation that I don’t know if I’d do us any justice by trying to balance all of that with our relationship.”

I recognized his game the second it came out of his mouth. He had never had a problem balancing school and their relationship before, so that surely couldn’t be the issue. He was simply enjoying the single life and wasn’t quite ready to give it up. Of course, he couldn’t put it that way to Ashley if he wanted to keep her around so he gave her the balancing act talk instead.

I knocked on the door, immediately getting his attention. 

“Hey babe, I’m gonna call you back, okay?” I heard her reply before he quickly hung up the phone. “Little brother, what’s up?”

“You and Ash getting back together, huh?”

He shrugged his shoulders as he replied, “I don’t know, maybe.”

“So you and Natasha are through?”

“Umm...not quite, little brother.”

“You want me to tell you why you should be?” He sat up a little straighter, inviting me to have a seat on his bed with him. There was no reason to hold anything back now that I knew the complete truth.

“I don’t think I like the sound of that.”

“You shouldn’t. Remember those pics, and texts, that broke Lexi and I up?”

“Yeah…”

I could see the wheels turning in his head, but he didn’t catch on until I said, “Natasha.”

“Natasha?”

“Well Natasha and Skylar, but yeah Natasha.”

“Why would she do something like that?” His guess was as good as mine and though she had told me why, I still didn’t fully believe her premise. 

“She called herself helping her cousin but I know bullshit when I hear it. She was using you to get to me.”

I watched his whole demeanor turn empathetic as he said, “Damn...that’s...that’s crazy. I mean, I wasn’t gonna make things official with her or anything like that but...damn. That’s fucked up. I’m sorry, little brother.”

“Nah, I’m sorry for letting you invite her into our section in the first place. Should’ve warned you about those crazy ass eyes.”

He got a little too excited about me mentioning them as he came back with, “Them eyes were wicked, huh? I mean when we were fuckin’, they would…”

“Toooo much, bro. I get it. I don’t need the details.”

“Right. But thanks for the tip. I mean, I’ll probably hit that one more time as if you didn’t just tell me all of this and call it quits.”

“Whatever floats your boat.” 

I don't know why I keep insisting that Junior Year has some sort of twang, but I guess I'm just excited because book baby # 4 is live on Amazon! Yes, the wait for Attractions & Distractions : Junior Year is over. I hope you all will continue to enjoy the series and please leave a review! (only if you liked it lol I'm kidding) 

This time next week, Junior Year will be out on Amazon (as long as they aren't on games lol)! But until then, here's the first page of the book for Sample Sunday. :)

“Babe, you gotta believe me.”

I was trying my best to wrap my head around what was happening even though the pounding of my heart and the sweat accumulating in my palms were making things ten times harder to process.

I had literally just gotten back to California.

Ready to take on another school year.

Ready to move into my new apartment.

Ready to enjoy some blissfulness with Jaden.

And someone had anonymously sent me a picture with their mouth wrapped around his dick, implying that they had kept him busy while I was home for the summer. They called themselves, “My worst fuckin’ nightmare” and no matter how much I tried to fight the sentiment, it was definitely ringing true.

“Jaden, don’t try to fuckin’ play me. I know your dick and that is definitely your dick.”

“That’s gotta be somebody from the past Lexi, I swear. I would never do that shit to you. I mean, I wasn’t the most virtuous dude before I met you so it could be a number of people, but that shit definitely wasn’t from the summertime.” I really didn’t know what to believe. Jaden had always been honest with me about things, but I knew he wasn’t the most honest person when it came to his previous relationships so maybe those bad habits were finally starting to surface. My face was frozen in a thoughtful scowl as I tried to digest the last thing I expected to see when I opened the message in the first place. I must’ve stayed in my own head for too long as Jaden piped out, “Babe, please talk to me. Tell me what you’re thinking.”

Junior Year is ALMOST upon us. 

And I realized I've been posting all sorts of teasers to Facebook but none of them made it here so here we go! All of the teasers for Attractions & Distractions : Junior Year in one place!

“I’m sorry, Alexis. I didn’t know you were...seeing someone.”

“It’s cool. We’re just...sharing a friendly dinner, right?” I peeked over just in time to catch him using a napkin to delicately dab the corners of his mouth before those same corners flared into a provocative grin.

“Trust me, beautiful. I don’t do just-friends with women like you.”

“Lexi Boo, you know we’re like 3 hours ahead of ya’ll over here on the East Coast.”
“True. I guess I should’ve known that, huh?”
“Considering you’re from this neck of the woods, definitely. But I’m up and you’re making that worth something so it’s all good.” I smiled as I watched the light from the TV flicker off his body in the dim room.
“Well since it is so late over there, what are you still doing up then?”
“I was actually dozing off ‘til you text me. That’s why I FaceTimed you cause I probably would’ve fallen asleep waiting on your replies.” I knew exactly what he meant though I usually just chose to fall asleep anyway. But I couldn’t help using the opportunity to tease him again.
“I thought you wanted to hear my voice and look at me.”
“Well that too. You know what I mean. Quit playin’.”

Sophomore Year folks know all about that ‪#‎LexiBoo‬ lol
