“Pfft. I tried but the guy doesn’t talk to anyone. I think he’s gay,” she whispers into the phone like she’s telling me some grand secret.
“Or you know, he’s shy.” I chuckle. “Don’t write him off yet, just try and be his friend first.”
“How did we switch rolls? You with the relationship advice, and me left in the cold?” Even through the phone I can tell she’s pouting.
“Fuck if I know. But I need your help.”
She squeals on the other end. “Omg are you ready to have sex?! Did you have sex? Tell me everything!”
I laugh at her eagerness. I swear sometimes all she thinks about is boys and sex. She’s never been one to shy away from sex or guys, and thinks she knows it all because I went out of my way to avoid them.
“Take a chill pill, Adds. I did not have sex, and I won’t be for a while. I’m just not there yet. Not that the other stuff isn’t fun.” I waggle my eyebrows even though she can’t see me, and she laughs.
“Oh, I know all about the other stuff.” Her voice lowering on the word other. “If it’s not about sex, then what did you want to talk about?” she asks, still giggling on the other end of the line.
It’s now or never. May as well drop it on her and get it out there.
“I have two boyfriends, and I am so screwed.” I throw myself onto the bed with a groan.
“Fuck off.” She doesn’t believe me, so I stay silent letting it kick in. “Holy shit! You’re serious?! Who?! What about Brian? Tell me everything!”
I laugh before I dive into the story of Brian and Colten, and how it all came to be while she screams so much I think I’m going to go deaf in that ear.
“Yeah, so we are meeting up in a few minutes and discussing exactly what this is going to look like for all three of us.”
Her squealing continues, and I have to pull my phone away from my ear temporarily.
“You lucky bitch! I definitely hate you right now.” She sighs down the line. “In all seriousness though, what do you want to have happen?”
“I don’t know,” I groan into the phone.
“Let’s try this.” I sit up and cross my legs on the bed, waiting for her to continue. “If you could have this exactly the way you wanted it, how would it look?”
Hmm that’s a good question. I take a moment to ponder it before answering.
“Truthfully? I want them both by my side as much as possible, but I also want alone time with them both. I love Brian, Adeline.”
“I know you do, Harls. He knows that too. Hell, I think the entire world knows it. I swear I feel your sappy gooey love all the way from here.” She snorts down the line.
“Haha. So, what do I do?” I ask, hoping she can help guide me through this.
“Follow your heart?” she asks, and I snort at her.
“Really? That’s all you’ve got, oh wise one?” I tease her.
“Answer this. Do you want people to know you’re dating Brian and your mortal enemy?”
I laugh at that. “I think so? I don’t want to hide it. If we sneak around, I won’t really get to know him or have the time with him I deserve. Besides, if it’s going to work, him and Bry need to spend time together too.”
“Then there’s your answer, boo,” she tells me softly. “I do kind of hate you, though. How you got so lucky is beyond me. I need to get into that school so I can find a hot guy of my own.”
I laugh at that because Addy hates school and her grades suck.
That and you know, you apparently have to be supernatural to get in.
“Yeah, I would love to see you bring your grades up.”
She makes a gagging sound and I can’t help but smile. “Nah, I think I’m good where I am,” she sighs woefully. “Gotta go, Harls. Mom is calling me down for dinner. Text me, bitch! I don’t want to go this long without talking to you again.”
“I will. Love you, Adds.” We make kissing noises to each other as my door opens and we hang up.
“Hmm, should we be worried you’re cheating on us?” Brian teases, and I laugh and look over at Colten to catch him rolling his eyes.
“Why the fuck would she want to cheat? She has you, and well—” He gestures down his body, and I burst into even more laughter. Such a conceited dick.
“Okay, Romeo.” Brian snorts and comes to give me a kiss that takes me off guard with its intensity, making me moan a little before he pulls away. “Missed you, beautiful.”
I smile up at him before Colten comes over and grabs the back of my neck, pulling me roughly to him for a hot and fierce kiss that leaves me breathless.
How the hell can I handle these guys together when one kiss from each has my panties soaked? Shit.
Colten just pulls back and smirks at the dazed look on my face. “Been wanting to do that all day, baby.”
“Mmmhmm,” I agree, nodding my head and making both of them laugh.
So they are ganging up on me now? Goody.
Wait, that doesn’t make sense. I shake my head to pull myself out of the kissing puddle they made me.
