Free Finding Lacey by J Wilde Page B

Or at least I hope not.”
     
    “What?”
     
    “Should I hang up, call back and try to do this all over again?”  Lacey’s nerves were calming now that she had her best friend on the phone.
     
    “Maybe you’d better.”  Lex giggled.  “No, really.  What’s up?”
     
    “What do you know about Shawn Reed?”
     
    “Not enough.  Oh my, he is just too hot to be for real.  He has a body that would make a Greek god jealous, gorgeous hair, intense eyes and lashes any woman would kill for.  I am getting hot just picturing him.  Phew.”
     
    “Easy girl.”  Lacey couldn’t help but laugh at her nymphomaniac best friend.  She would undoubtedly sleep with him if he asked her.  After Bobby died, Lex was her connection to all things sexual and sinful.  Lacey lived vicariously through her exploits, having none of her own to experience.  “I meant, besides his Godlike appearance.”
     
    “Okay, let me take a sip of water cause I am on fire over here.”  Lacey could hear all the sounds she was making and if she didn’t know better, it was almost as if she was…she shook her head trying to erase the image that popped to mind. 
     
    “He works on Wall Street as one of those stock guys.  He is single, no kids, thirty and looks like a god.”
     
    Shaking her head, Lacey sat back on her couch watching Max nibble on his chew toy as she listened to Lex carry on. 
     
    “He sees a lot of women I think.  Seems like there’s a new one each weekend.  I don’t know if he has any family.  I think he is originally from South Jersey, but don’t hold me to that.”
     
    “Where do you find out all of this stuff?”  Lacey meandered to her large walk-in closet, pushing hangers around trying to decide what to wear to dinner.
     
    “Oh, my walks around the neighborhood are quite educational” Lex chuckled.  “Why are you asking?”
     
    Pulling out a red silk wrap-around dress that always showed off her best assets, hugged her in all the right places and was easy to get off in a hurry, if need be. Lacey held it up to her body, looked in the full-length mirror and nodded in approval. 
     
    “I bumped in to him at the park and he asked me to dinner tonight.”
     
    Lacey dropped the phone as Lex proceeded to scream in her ear.
     
    When Lacey couldn’t hear her from the floor anymore, she picked up the cell phone and started listening again.
     
    “Shut the front door!  Ooh, it’s Thursday.  Maybe you’re his flavor for the weekend.”
    Damn.  Lacey’s stomach soured.  She wished Lex hadn’t said that.
     
    “It’s just dinner, Lex!  Come on.”
     
    “Girl, you haven’t been out on a date in months and you haven’t gotten laid in years.  You need a man that will treat you right.  Someone strong and handsome and rich to take care of your every need.”  Lex actually sounded like she was going to have an orgasm right there on the phone.
     
    Lacey giggled, then sighed quietly.  “It’s just dinner, Lex.”
     
    “Yeah right.  You need this way more than anyone I know.  Bobby’s been gone a long time hun.  Why not live a little.  You’re too young for the old maid act.”
     
    Deep down, Lacey knew Lex was right.  But, she wasn’t a one-night stand kind of girl.  She was more like a knight in shining armor or a Prince Charming kind of girl.  But her body was dying to be touched again.  And, frankly, the late night trysts with her dildo collection were getting boring.  She wanted nothing more than to wrap herself around a muscular hunk and feel his heat thrusting into her repeatedly, mercilessly until she exploded over and over again.
     
    “Still there?”  Lex was still talking to her.
     
    “Yeah, sorry.  Was just picking out clothes for tonight.”
     
    “Make it sexy, girl.  You still have that red dress?”
     
    “Yep, already pulled it out of moth balls.”
     
    “Ew.  Really?”
     
    “Just teasing.  It was in the back of the closet.  Okay, I have to go
