wasn’t an easy one and if I pissed her off, I’d be SOL. I shoved the phone in my back pocket. Shannon wasn’t going anywhere.
    Lexi reviewed my next assignment for several minutes before finally speaking. “I recommend you do a comparative analysis of the two characters. It will add a more dynamic point of view and make it harder for your professor to argue the points.”
    I leaned back in my chair and scrubbed my face with my hands. “Damn, you really know your stuff.”
    Impressive.
    She shrugged. “It’s what I love to do. Just like you love to play football, I love to read and critique papers.” She leaned forward, her body relaxing against the table.
    “I guess so.” I cocked a brow, noticing how her boobs pressed up, giving me a nice view down her V-neck T-shirt. I tried not to look, but damn, it was hard not to notice. “Thank you for the suggestion. I think that’s a great idea.” She stared at me with an intensity that told me she wanted to be more than my tutor. I’d seen this look before, but there was something more to it. No doubt, she was curious about me, but for some reason, she was holding back. Why? I had no idea, but I decided to take a different approach and get to know her. Find out everything there was to know about Lexi Thompson.
    “Lexi?” I cleared my throat a few times.
    “Yeah?” Her body shuddered before she peeled her eyes off me.
    “I said, thank you for the suggestion. I think that’s a great idea.” I chose my words carefully. I’d let her call the plays. Otherwise, I was terrified I’d blow this, which I couldn’t afford to do.
    She tugged on her sleeves, and I noticed the trembling in her hands. Obviously, I’d gotten to her. “Oh, yeah, sure.”
    I gathered my books and papers and stuffed them in my backpack. I needed to get the hell out of there before I did something stupid, like kiss her. Besides, the game was over. I had won. She was clearly on my side and wanted to help me. I didn’t need to push any further. “I’ll start working on it, and, um…I guess we can review it on Thursday.”
    “Sounds good to me.” Slight disappointment laced her voice and she eased back in her chair. “See ya later.” She watched me carefully, but I stuck to the plan and got the hell out of there.
    “Yeah, see you later.”

    I lay in bed, unable to stop thinking about Lexi. She was totally invading my space and I liked it.
    I liked the way she bit her lower lip as her eyes appraised me.
    I liked the way her pouty lips called to me, begging me to devour them.
    I liked her sweet scent of peaches and honey that swirled around me.
    Shit, I liked it so much, but I’d be totally screwed if I messed this up.
    Moaning, I rolled over and covered my head with the pillow. Lexi was off limits. She was my tutor and I needed her to remain as such. It didn’t stop my curiosity, though. I wanted to know everything about her. Retrieving my phone from the nightstand, I unlocked it. I went straight to Instagram, but nothing pulled up. Then I searched on Twitter, only to find nothing. As a last resort, I went to Facebook and searched for her name. A few profiles showed up, and I immediately spotted hers. I selected her page, but nothing was visible. She had everything hidden.
    I thought about sending her a friend request, but decided against it. Girls posted on my page all the time and there was no telling what she would think. I considered deleting everything, but didn’t feel like messing with it. Frustrated, I tossed my phone aside. I’d just have to ask if anyone knew her.
    After a quick shower, I got dressed and went to the kitchen.
    “Hey, man,” Josh mumbled from the other side of the bar. A piece of toast hung from the side of his mouth as he worked to get his books into his backpack.
    “You’re late for class,” I reminded him, opening the fridge.
    “I know. I had to study for a test in another class.” He yawned and stretched.
    “If you didn’t spend all your
