Lori White It's a Lust Thing 
 
 
 Chapter One 
 
Dear God. 
When did life get so...so...fucked up for me?  I know what you're thinking. Oh god all this book is going to be about is her complaining.  Well, let me tell you.  
I don't complain. Okay, maybe I do. 
But not an obsessive amount of complaining. 
Okay, getting off topic here. 
If you're wondering when did my life get like this it all started when I met Tyler.... KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK 
 
"Shh, shh, honey mommy's sleeping." I told my three year old Daschund. I probable should have realized that Toby wasn't there. KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK 
 
"NOT now, Toby. Just five more minutes for Mama. Okay? Okay." KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK 
 
I moan as I groggily get out of bed.  "Okay, I see that you won't let mama sleep so we'll just feed you now won't we?" 
As I start to put on my robe I start to remember that I had dropped off Toby with my sister for the weekend. 
Then who the hell is beating down my door 
The same  KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK 
  but now with a voice. 
"Hello? Is anyone there? I was told to meet a girl named Lydia. Umm, I'm pretty sure this is the right address.  This is about the roommate space you have available. 
Ahh, right.  I'm supposed to meet my potential roommate. Tyler. 
"Coming! I'll be down in a minute. 
I race out of my room, putting on my slippers and my glasses before I open the door. 
"Hi! Sorry about the-" I gulp. "Wait..." 
Outside my door was the hottest man I've ever met.  He was really tall, a couple inches above my 5'10". He was dressed in plain jeans and a white t-shirt but somehow he made that seem like an Armani suit. And his face.  Oh, god his face was like magic.  Bright blue eyes rested on chisilled cheek bones.  His mouth was the perfect shape, manly but still shapely, and his hair was dark and tousled, but not like I-spent-thirty-minutes-in-the-mirror-tousled more like I-just-woke-up tousled. This man was the closest thing I've seen to sex on legs. 
Sex-on-legs smirked and said, "Like what you see?"  
I blushed and said, "Sorry, come on in." 
Great, I thought to myself, already embarrassed myself in front of the roommate. Great going, Lydia. Keep up the good work! NOT. 
Okay Lydia, don't think about how sexy his ass is while he's walking in front of you. Honestly who would want that? He's all muscle-y and stuff. 
Going that direction isn't helping. 
LYDIA, don't forget you have a boyfriend and I don't think he'd be happy to find you jumping some strangers bones who you thought was a girl. 
Oh, Shit. KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK 
 
"Coming!" I yell at the door, then turn to face my future roomie. "Okay, your room would be down the hall to the right. Why don't you go look around while I answer my door." THen I raced to my front door, and was greeted by the lovely sight of my boyfriend's face.  The boyfriend who you've been with since high school.  The guy who let you cry on his shoulder when Aunt Ruthie died.  The guy who'd have a cow at the thought of a male being your roommate. 
"Hey, honey.  Just thought I'd drop by to see what you were doing, and to catch up." Adam said as he stepped in the house.  
"I'm doing nothing, just catching up on my cleaning. And stuff.  What are you doing here?" 
"Wow, it's been so long since I've been here."  He said ignoring my question. "And it's been even longer since we did it here." said my boyfriend.  And all of a sudden his visit made sense.  Ah, Adam wants to get a little luck. 
"Sorry, Adam.  I'm really busy.  Cleaning! I really need to wipe down the walls, and my bed isn't made and-" 
"Then we can rip off the sheets. Or we can do it in the study, or on the kitchen counter.  Come on, Lydia, are you saying cleanings more important than me?"  There goes those darling puppy dog eyes, that got him everything he wanted, but for some reason it wasn't working today.  I also noticed that Adam is more soft where Tyler is rugged. 
Woah, when did Tyler get into this?   
"Come on, Lydia. Live a little." He said with a smile as he backed me into the guest bedroom and promptly stopped his eyes wide. 
"Who the hell are you?" He demanded. 
Tyler, gentleman that he is, stepped up and let his hand out to shake, "I'm Tyler Cross. I'm Lydia's new roommate." 
 
 
 
 Chapter Two 
 
I cringe as my boyfriend looks at me.  Emotions danced on his face: confusion, reluctance, disbelieving, then anger. 
"Lydia, can I talk to you in your room." He says and then heads to my bedroom.   
I turn to Tyler. "Stay here. Don't move." 
"I'm sorry, Lydia. Did I do something wrong." 
YES. "No. Just let me take care of this, and then we'll work out the details about the room, okay?"  I say, then start the walk to my room where my boyfriend waits.
