Lucas nodded his head as he laced up his skates. He only had a half day at practice since he had to head to Shelbyville for the Rocky Top Wines campaign. He was ready to go. He wanted to get it done because then Fallon, Aiden, and he could leave for California. Three days in complete bliss with his two favorite people — Lucas couldn’t ask for more. Well maybe to skip the campaign but it meant everything to Fallon, so he would suck it up and get it done.

For her.

“Yup,” he said as he stood up, making sure his skates felt right.

“Dude, that’s girly. That’s why none of us volunteered,” Phillip said.

Lucas laughed as he rolled his eyes. He was about to tell Phillip how girlie his hair looked but Shea came towards them and said, “The only thing girly is you, Anderson.”

The guys all started laughing as Shea sat down beside Lucas. Anderson sent Shea an evil look before grabbing his stick and heading out the locker room. Lucas shook his head, re-lacing his skates as everyone started to leave for the ice. When it was only him and Shea, he said, “So explain to me the reason you hate Anderson.”

Shea laughed. “I don’t hate him. He’s just stays on my bad side.”

“Why?”

Shea chuckled as he threw on a practice jersey. “When me and Elli were dating, Anderson would mess with me and flirt with her all the time. He knew it got under my skin and ever since I’ve had an issue with him,” he said simply.

Lucas chuckled. “You are a crazy dude when it comes to Elli.”

Shea laughed. “Yeah, she’s my heart and soul though, and we both know that if some rookie started flirting with Fallon they would end up face first on the ice.”

Lucas let out a booming laugh as he stood up, grabbing his stick, “Damn right about that.”

Lucas knew he was at Rocky Top Winery when he saw the large orange building. It stood taller than the arena, and beside it was an even larger white building that had solar panels on the roof. Even with size and color of the buildings, Lucas couldn’t help but admire the gorgeousness of the vineyards. They were large and full of color. It seemed that they outstretched for days and Lucas was in awe of the land’s beauty. Lucas found himself jealous of Fallon for growing up there. Michigan was beautiful, but Rocky Top Winery was picturesque.

Lucas followed the directions Fallon gave him and ended up by a little cabin that was on the outside of the vineyards. People were everywhere. Camera crews, wardrobe people, people in suits, people with makeup, basically any and every kinds of people were there, and even with it all, Lucas’ eyes fell on Fallon. She stood tall in a champagne-colored skirt with a white lacey blouse tucked into it and the champagne-colored lace high heels brought out her sexy calves. She wore her hair down with a braid along the side of her head, tucked behind her ear. She had big white glasses on her face and she was doing what she did best.

Yelling at people.

“What are you doing!? I said to the right!” Fallon yelled before throwing her hands up in the air. Lucas laughed as he shook his head. She was the most amazing person ever but she had the worst temper. As Lucas watched her, he couldn’t help but love everything about her, but at that moment, it was her legs. They were so long, and so sexy.

“Shit,” he whispered as he watched her move around. He was regretting not going to her job and having his way with her. Lucas hadn’t been home in days and the past couple nights had been torture. He loved sleeping with Fallon but he really loved having sex with her.

When Eleanor Adler walked over to her, he smiled. There was no denying that Mrs. Adler was pregnant. Her little belly poked out far in her light blue button up shirt that had a belt right under her breast. The length of the shirt covered her bottom that was clad in tight blue jeans. Lucas remembered Shea telling him that Elli was a fashion freak, and Lucas couldn’t agree more. She was gorgeous and chic with her hair in a messy bun and big black glasses on her face. To top everything off, she had on brown high heel boots, causing Lucas to think that Shea Adler was a lucky man.

And Lucas was green with envy.

As he watched the two women talk and smile at each other, Lucas wished like hell that Fallon was pregnant. His desire for a baby was intense since he didn’t get to watch Aiden grow up, and really, he just wanted a baby. He wanted the little bundle that he could hold in his hands. He wanted the slobber, the diapers, the coos and spit up — he wanted it all and with Fallon.

Only Fallon.

When Fallon turned and saw him, a slow grin came across her face as she sashayed towards him. He smiled back at her and when she reached him, he pulled her close for a sweet kiss.

“Mm,” she gushed as they parted, “that was nice.”

Lucas shrugged. “I thought so.”

Fallon giggled as she slid her hand in his. “Come on, you need to get ready.”

She led him into a tent that was lined in suits and held two ladies that looked like they were on a mission. Fallon sent him a grin before pointing to each lady. “This is Madison and Kaley, they will be dressing you and basically making sure you look good. This is Lucas,” Fallon said and turned to look back at Lucas. “When you’re done, come on out, we will be going over the shots and you can meet Tasha.”

“Tasha?” he asked as she went to leave.

Fallon leaned against the post before looking back at him, “Yup, the hot model you’ll be posing with.” She gave him one last grin before fluttering out of the tent. As Madison and Kaley went to work on him, Lucas thought that Tasha sounded like a bunch of trouble.
