He turned away from me and headed out the door. I took in a deep breath as I took my phone out and sent Libby a text.
Me: Lib, are you dating someone?
Libby: Why?
Me: Luke said he saw you kissing someone, and he is out of control right now, Lib. He really cares about you, but he thinks he’s not good enough for you.
Libby: Luke only cares about himself and his fuck buddy, Abigail. She made sure to tell me how much they hook up. I seriously doubt he cares about me when he has her. I’m heading into a movie.
What in the hell? Libby talked to Abigail? How do they know each other?
Me: Wait. Lib, when did you talk to Abigail?
Libby: Two weeks ago. She came up to me in the library and started talking about her and Luke.
None of this was making any sense. Luke hadn’t seen Abigail in months.
Me: Libby, this doesn’t make sense. Luke hasn’t seen Abigail in months.
Libby: Will, I’m tired of this. I don’t care anymore. I’ve moved on. Please let it go. I have to go. I love you.
I pulled up Luke’s number and hit it. It rang two times and then went to voice mail. I called again. After two more rings, I got voice mail again. I tried a third time, and it was obvious he wasn’t going to answer his phone, so I left a message.
“Dude, I just talked to Libby. She thinks you and Abigail have been hooking up all this time. Abigail talked to Libby in the library a couple of weeks ago. She made it seem like y’all were together. Luke, please don’t do this. Call Libby.”
I hit End and stared at my phone, but nothing happened. I tried to call Libby, and her phone went directly to voice mail. I sat down on my bed and let out a frustrated moan.
My phone pinged.
Lex: I miss you. <3
Me: God, I miss you.
Lex: Guess what?
Me: You’re naked and touching yourself, and you want to FaceTime?
Lex: Nope. Better.
Me: What in the hell could be better than you naked?
Lex: Me standing in the hallway outside your dorm room and somewhat naked.
I stared at her reply for a few seconds. I got up, walked to the door, and opened it.
“Surprise!” Lex smiled at me.
“Lex? You didn’t tell me…” I looked her body up and down.
She was dressed in a long coat and had a large purse over her shoulder.
“Why in the hell are you wearing that coat? It’s not that cold out.”
She looked both ways down the hall before she untied it and held it open.
Motherfucker.
She was completely naked under the coat.
