Read Falling for Summer for Free Online Page B

at USC today so I can make a decision.
    Steven doesn’t seem to worry about me taking Dad’s private jet. I figure that’s what it’s there for anyways. And I figure, heck with it. Dad owes us that at least, especially with what he put Mom through with the divorce, the affair, and all that. I have a weekend duffle bag packed and ready to go, and in no time, I’m here in Southern California, having breakfast with Summer, and touring USC.
    It’s a whirlwind day, and I would be lying if I didn’t say I am excited about being able to go to USC on a football scholarship. I think they don’t hand out too many of those. I’m impressed with everything I see, but at the moment, that’s just something on top of the pie that I see as being there with Summer. If I stay, then seeing Summer is all that I need. The apple pie to my vanilla ice cream with cherry on top.

    I would be lying if I didn’t admit to being turned on by Summer and wanting to get her into my pants. I’ve already thought of Summer in that way. What other way can a guy think of a girl?
    Then I arrive at Los Angeles, after I get her text, with an insane idea of actually following up with the recruit from USC for a tour and interview, and see Summer looking like that. Tanned, toned, curves in the right places and that small waist…lips, hair, eyes all packaged up like a siren. If she’s a siren, I heard her call, and I’m diving in hook, line, and sinker.
    “It’s Astor’s stylist…” Summer said. “She went through my clothes, changed it up, and had me get my hair and face done. If I’m going to be with him, they want me to look good with him,” she says.
    “Oh, baby,” I say, letting the word ‘baby’ slip out. The old Summer will have my hide for saying that to her. “You don’t have to change a thing. You’re perfect the way you are.” My voice has gotten lower.
    “Thank you,” Summer says. “Coming from someone who’s judged purely on looks alone, I take that as a compliment. Astor doesn’t think I need to change, but his people are getting all over him once that blockbuster film he’s in premieres. I’m glad I’m not caught up in all that right now. He’s there, and I’m here. They’re not on me if I’m not with him.”
    “You’re not with him?” I ask, trying not to sound all too happy about it.
    “I don’t know if we ever were,” Summer says. “Maybe for a while, but now we hardly see each other.”
    I pull her in and pat her back, careful not to have my hands drift down too low where it will slightly brush the top of her tight jeans-clad bottom. I’m all too aware how we’re at a height where she will be perfect against me, her hips meeting mine right at a perfect angle. “Um, sorry to hear. But now you don’t have to worry so much about how you’ll look just for him. I know how it is, Summer. Just being judged for what’s outside all the time, and not what’s inside.”
    “I kinda like this new and improved wild look of mine. I think it’s a statement of freedom and boldness. Ever since Aunt Sookie died, I’ve been thinking of living my life like hers…not caring what other people think of me and living without regrets.”
    “No regrets?” I ask, thinking I do like this new and bold Summer. “So you getting all sexy like that is having no regrets?” I move closer.
    “Yes, what’s wrong with a woman wanting to express herself? I don’t want any hang-ups about things. Life’s too short. I want to experience life.” She steps closer to me and touch my shoulders. “You still get girls coming up to you, handing you their numbers?” She smirks.
    “As a matter of fact, just on my way to see you when I had to get some gas for the car.” Some girls at the gas station.
    “The nerve of them,” Summer jokes, smiling. “Can’t they just leave you alone? Don’t they know you want to be taken seriously for your mind and only for your
