"What do you think?" Blue said, shoving the curtain open. "Ugh, sorry." He'd forgotten to unfasten it, so he had to unhook it before trying again.

"Not right," I said. The thighs looked too tight. "Turn around."

Blue spun so I could get a good view of his ass. It was toned, but the pants were just too tight on him. "Can you even walk?"

Blue walked out of the changing stall experimentally. "That'd be a no."

I shoved the curtain closed again. "Next time, try walking before anything else." I could hear the sounds of him taking off his clothes.

Suddenly, the front door of the shop slammed open. The glass pane in the center shattered. Jasper Wolfe was coming into the store.

"Did you seriously just ditch me on our date?" He looked like steam should be coming out of his nostrils.

"Yup. If you're going to be a douchebag and not respect my boundaries, I don't need to finish a date with you." My chin came up. I was ready to throw down.

"A more polite person would've just told me instead of running off with my b... best friend."

"A more polite person would've let me order for myself and listened when I protested." I crossed my arms. "I guess neither of us are very polite."

There was a moment where he stared me down, but I'd grown up with a father who used that as his primary disciplinary tactic, so it didn't work on me.

"I knew you'd come," Blue said, walking out of the stall. "What do you think?"

"They're pants," Jasper grumped. "And we're in the middle of talking about why my date just ditched me. I paid for every table in that restaurant for you!"

"Did it ever occur to you that it was too much?" I put my hands on my hips. "I didn't ask for that. All you did was drive me home after someone spilled wine on me, and then all of a sudden I was on a date in an empty restaurant with two guys I didn't know."

Jasper ground his teeth and said nothing. "Come back."

"No," I said. "Blue and I are going to buy pants. Then I'm going to take him home and feed him popcorn while we watch a movie. And maybe cuddle on the couch."

"On board with this plan," Blue said easily.

Jasper's face was red. I knew I had to tone it down.

"You can be invited if you behave yourself."

"She's sassy," Blue said. "You wouldn't want a shrinking violet for a... You wouldn't want a shrinking violet anyway."

"What were you about to say?"

"Nothing," Blue said. "Oh look, more pants." He went back into the stall so that I was still face to face with Jasper.

"I'm used to getting my way."

"If you're interested in me, you're going to have to get used to doing things my way." I walked close to him. I was still mad about our disastrous date, but I had to admit that the man was sending out pheromones. He smelled like the kind of decadent sin that could keep you up until dawn. I put a hand on his arm, and he stopped breathing. "Listen," I whispered. "I've had some bad experiences. You have to take it slow with me, okay?"

He inhaled a shallow breath and said, "Okay."
