Audrey shook her head, “I can’t leave my date.”

Audrey was drunk, but even she knew that she couldn’t leave Aiden without dancing with him. When she glanced towards the dance floor and saw that he was busy getting down with Allison, Harper and Jakob Titov’s little girl, she smiled. Guess Aiden wasn’t too worried about his old aunt; he had his eyes set on sweet Allison. She looked just like her father, beautiful brown eyes and long straight brown hair. She was beautiful and together, Aiden and Allison were so cute!

When Levi pressed his body against her, she took in a deep breath, her body humming for his.

“I think your date is busy. Now come on, let’s go. I want you naked, now.”

Audrey arched her back, pressing her body against his. She knew this was wrong, but she was horny and drunk. Plus, part of her hoped that he was for real and that he wanted her back. Part of her knew that wasn’t true, but the hopeless romantic part of her prayed it was.

“Well, when you put it like that, how can I say no?”

Audrey was pretty sure she was making another mistake.

Chapter 6

“Shit.”

Audrey rolled over, stretching her arms above her head. With a satisfied grin, she opened her eyes to see Levi putting on his shirt from the night before. She only caught a glimpse of his tight abs before they were quickly covered by his shirt. Memories of running her tongue and mouth along those abs hit her hard, and she was soon ready to go again. Before she could suggest that he join her back in bed, Levi reached down to pick up his shoes. Audrey sat up, covering her chest with her blanket as she glanced at the clock, seeing that it was five in the morning. What the hell was he doing?

Surely he wasn’t leaving after last night. They had made sweet burning love, he had whispered how much he had missed her, and how he was never going to leave. He told her everything she had wanted to hear, playing with her heart strings. So why was he in a rush getting ready?

“What are you doing?” she finally asked.

Levi glanced up, then back down at the white button up shirt he was buttoning. “Janet has called like 10 times, I think she knows I went home with someone which sucks ‘cause now I’m going to have to listen to her bitch all day.”

Whoa, say what?

“Excuse me?” she croaked out as her pulse kicked up a notch.

Levi glanced over at her and when his eyes met hers, a condescending smile went across his gorgeous mouth. “Oh come on, A, you really didn’t think this was a start to something again, did you?”

The air rushed out of her as Levi shook his head and started moving around the room. She moved off the bed, grabbing her dress from the night before and sliding it on. Her hands shook, uncontrollably, as she zipped up, turning to face Levi. Her heart was beating so hard that she felt like her chest was vibrating. She didn’t want to fight with him, she wanted to go back to bed, and cuddle. But he had taken that fantasy away from her. He was still with someone.

Audrey took in a shuddering breath before saying, “You slept with me, and you’re still with someone?”

Levi rolled his eyes as he tucked his keys in his pocket, “Yeah, so?”

“Oh my God,” Audrey said, her hands coming up to her stomach. She felt like she was going to puke. Again, she believed his lies, his sweet words. AGAIN! It was disgusting. What the f**k was wrong with her?! Why did she always trust him! “You said you missed me!”

“I do, I miss f**king you but I don’t want you.”

“You ass**le!” Audrey screamed, her heart breaking all over again while not affecting him at all.

“You’re killing me here, A, when are you ever going to figure it out? I don’t want to be with you.” Audrey glanced up to see him as he reached the door. He turned and pinned her with a distant look, “I just want to f**k you. See ya around, Cupcake.”

Audrey took in shuddering breaths as she listened to Levi run down the stairs. When she heard the front door slam, she fell to the floor, holding her knees close to her chest.

I just want to f**k you.

How many times had she heard that? Even with knowing the outcome of their reunion, how could she let this happen? Why did she always do this to herself? Why couldn’t she see through his lines and lies? Or any man’s lines? As the questions swam in her head, she sat staring at the dark mole that was on her knee. Slowly her vision started to cloud with tears, and when they started to fall, she popped up and ran to the bathroom. She didn’t want to feel the tears rolling down her cheeks, it would make everything worse.

Audrey jumped in the shower, not caring about the beautiful dress that her sister picked out. She turned the water on the hottest setting, filling the shower with steam. The dress started to hurt against her skin and she started to tear it off, destroying it. The pain coursed across her skin, she didn’t know if it was from the water or from Levi.

She felt dirty, disgusting.

Grabbing her loofa, she started to scrub her body, crying as the roughness and the heat of the water continued to burn her skin. She welcomed the pain, though. With every swipe of the loofa, she didn’t feel as dirty. She needed to get the smell of Levi off her! She couldn’t take it. Never had she felt like such a cheap piece of ass. Not even when she woke up beside Tate, did she feel this dirty. No, only Levi could do this to her.

When she finally felt clean, she dropped to her bottom, pulling her knees up under her chin, as the sobs started to rip out of her. She was basically screaming as she cried. She felt like the biggest whore this side of the Red River. So nasty that not even a dog would lick her face. She had never felt like such a failure, well, other than when she had the abortion but that was years ago. She had always thought highly of herself. Knowing that one day everything would work out. But at that moment, she didn’t feel like things were ever going to get better.
