"Fall for me."
"Do you remember?" Jackson said softly, his gaze locked on the same spot mine was, as if he were reliving the memory too.
"Yes."
"That... was a good night."
Every night with you was a good night. Every fucking day, too.
First love. Unforgettable.
If anyone walked by and could see me now, they wouldn't know who I was or what had gotten into me. But I knew. I'd always known.
Jackson Davenport had burrowed his way into my soul a long time ago, and damn if he hadn't ever let go.

Even after all this time. I thought I’d gotten over it. Accepted it, moved past it. But seeing him again brought back every ounce of hurt and shame I’d felt back then, which pissed me off because it meant I was still broken. And it was all his fucking fault.
“I lost my parents. I lost you. Then Gram passed. Putting up walls is the only way I know how to cope at this point.”
Lucas groaned and pushed me away as I laughed. “Fucking tease,” he muttered.
“What was that?”
He plastered a fake smile on his face. “I said do you like any of these?”
A thousand words were said in those moments of silence, and most of them began with, “I’m sorry.” All of the anger and hurt and resentment washed away as we sat there making up for our offenses without saying a word.
"Lucas brought our hands to his lips and brushed a kiss against my knuckles. “We have all the time in the world, Jackson. You and me.”
Lucas had once been so much a part of me that I’d felt like half of myself when he wasn’t around, and as we reconnected with each other, it was like finding a part of myself I’d forgotten I’d lost.
A LITTLE BIT LIKE LOVE was such an adorable & sexy & moving second chance love story! Hurry to your nearest amazon for your own Lucson/Jackas!!! These two are MINE! ☺
“I’d tasted those lips only a few times, not nearly enough to quench a starving man’s hunger.”
“Kissing Jackson would complicate everything . It was throwing myself out to sea without a lifeboat or a preserver or any damn thing to hold on to to save myself.”

“Quite simply, I’d been lost to him the first time I laid eyes on him.”
“If you really love someone, that doesn’t just go away because they decide they don’t love you back, right? Or because they leave? It’s not a switch you can flip off because trust me, I’ve tried.”
“At the word “force,” and the image of him doing just that, I had the urge to reach down and adjust myself, but my self-control was stronger.
“Careful, Jackson. You might remember how much I enjoy that.”
He swallowed.”
