Chapter 27.

Cast of Magic Mike XXL is effing hot.

~~~

Colton's POV

I stared at my soon to be ex-girlfriend and ignored the pang in my heart at the word 'ex'. This was what was for the best, I tried telling myself but the look of pure devotion and authority on Racheal's face made that thought disappear. She looked like a woman on mission and all I wanted to do was take her right there, right then which I knew wouldn't be appreciated. Stupid hormones!

I had gotten so damn excited when she agreed to get a room just a few minutes back and then was nervous when she suddenly stopped, I thought she was regretting her decision of getting intimate with me which was stupid because every girl wants to be intimate with me. But the look of panic and distress on her face made me go crazy with worry. And her next words about knowing the killer were definitely not calming me. That girl drove me crazy!

She had just suffered a trauma, I had no clue what memory she accessed when her eyes glazed over and her fists clenched but I knew it was about her father and this stupid drug racket.

It was killing me to not know, so I turned to face her once again. Her eyes were strained on the road in front, her hands intertwined in her lap and her lips set in a straight angry line.

I cleared my throat, grabbing her attention. "So Smith, care to tell me what this all about?"

She sucked a breath and I knew this going to be very hard for her. But I want to, I need to know what went in that wild brain of hers. She wasn't going to do something stupid not on my watch, I mentally swore to myself and yet knowing her, she would persuade me too to do something stupid along with her.

She just had that effect on me and surprisingly I loved it.

"I reminisced the day my dad died." She started, "Mom and dad fought the day he left. Mom didn't want him to go, like always she was scared. But after a few calming words and passionate kisses from dad, she agreed. He then came up to my room, we talked, we shared a few jokes." Her lips turned upwards into a small smile, remembering her precious moments with her dad. I suddenly wished that I had some of them.

"But then-" she breathed out, "He said his last words to me. 'Hey kiddo, remember lollipops and lilies, remember it proper and don't do anything stupid okay?'"

I blinked, trying to keep my eyes on the road, instead of pulling her into my lap and showering kisses on her face. "Lollipops and what?"

"Lilies." She filled in.

I waited, patiently waiting for her to elaborate but after a few seconds and not another word from her. I twisted my lips with annoyance. What am I, Sherlock Holmes? "Lollipops and lilies, hmm? Let's see... oh... okay. No, nope still not making any sense."

She smiled a little, rolling her eyes and it felt good knowing I was the one who made her smile. "I saw a lollipop wrapper and remembered the words."

My mouth formed an 'O' as I realized what her point was. "They previously smuggled drugs in lollipops!" I exclaimed.

Racheal nodded, "Yes, but after my dad blew up that racket, so they had to shift from lollipops to soft toys."

"Lollipops? Seriously lollipops? I can't believe it." I muttered, I actually liked lollipops as a kid but drugs in that nice flavored round ball of sticky substance was hard to imagine.
