Fallen Desire Read Online Free Page A

the party since I’m going to be a senior next year.  I’ve made friends with some of Lindsay’s circle.”  I can’t believe it, my dad actually seems to like him.  He has a smile on his face and doesn’t seem too serious, usually he’s ready to interrogate.  There’s something about Ethan that just makes you feel calm and safe.  It might just be me, or maybe he’s giving my father the same impression. 
    “I see.  Well, you two have fun and have her back by eleven.”  My dad grins.
    “That won’t be a problem.  It was very nice to meet you.”  I kiss my dad on the cheek and we head out the door.  My emotions are heightened, and I can’t wait to be alone with Ethan even if it is just in the car.  I don’t know what’s going to happen, but mostly I just want to learn more about Ethan, it’s just with my hormones running wild all I can really think about is throwing him down and taking advantage of him. 
    His car is black and classy and it looks new.  I wonder what his parents do.  They obviously spoil him.  Like a gentleman, he opens my door for me and then strides around to his side of the car.  The party is at Joshua’s house, he lives out in the count ry and he holds all the parties since he has the space and his parents have the money.  They pretty much let him do whatever he wants.  The drive takes about fifteen minutes, and the whole way there we don’t talk, at all.
    Ethan seems tense he’s holding onto the steering wheel and watching the road, never moving his gaze.  His face is strong and beautiful but filled with so much grief.  I want to touch him and calm his nerves but afraid of rejection, I restrain myself.  He must be nervous because he definitely doesn’t seem comfortable.  The fifteen minute drive seemed to take forever, but now that we’re here I wish I could just stay in the car with him even if we aren’t talking, just having him sitting here by me makes me feel good even with the uncertainty of his emotions.  I don’t really feel like being around anyone but him, just having his presence next to me brings me pleasure.  I feel like I have this permanent smile plastered on my face that won’t go away, and I probably look absolutely ridiculous.  Although maybe being around other people will help us to loosen up a little and actually communicate so we can learn something about one another.  He gets out of the car after putting it in park and again opens my door for me to let me out.  I blush at his kindness but keep my head down to avoid his sensual dark stare.
    He holds my hand as I get out of the car and doesn’t let go as we walk toward the house.  At the mere touch of his hand, my cheeks turn red and I start to sweat.  I swear the passion I feel for him is causing me to burn up. 
    Kim’s voice coming from a distance causes me to stop focusing on the energy flowing between Ethan and me.  “Lindsay.  How are you?”  Kim is in a perky mood as always.  I don’t think anything could bring this girl down.  After giving me a huge hug she shoots a glance at Ethan.  I think I can see something in her eyes.  Recognition?  Anger?  I’m not sure what it is.  “Who is this?” she asks in disgusted tone and I glare at her, mentally willing her to be nice.
    “Ethan.  I thought you knew him.”  I was under the impression that when Ethan said he knew some of my friends that he was including Kim, but maybe that isn’t the case. 
    “Well, I’ve seen you around, Ethan, but I haven’t gotten the chance to get to know you.  Glad you could come.”  With a turn of her head she smiled at me.  “Come on in and enjoy the party, Lindsay.” 
    She walks through the side gate to the back of the house where all the kids are huddled around a bonfire.  We follow behind at a distance, and my nerves are acting up again.  Joshua always throws huge parties, and I think everyone in the school shows up every time.  They have a bonfire going in the back
