“So we’re all for one and one for all now, eh?” asked Brandon.

I ran both hands through my tangled hair and shook it out. “Yup. We sure are.”

“Good,” he said, and he genuinely meant it. “There’s still some coffee there,” he pointed with his fork. “Gonna need to heat it up though.”

“Microwave coffee?” I gasped.

He nodded as if it were the most sane thing in the world. “Yeah. Why the heck not?”

“Because we’re not barbarians,” Colin finished for me. I smiled at him from across the kitchen. We even gave each other air high-fives.

I dumped the pot into the sink and started the water again. My morning was almost over, and my afternoon was doomed to get off to a slow start.

“Where’s Hunter?” I asked, not-so-innocently.

Brandon looked curious. “You don’t know?”

I shook my head.

“Out of town,” said Colin. “For the next two days.”

“It’s a work thing,” added Brandon. “He does it once a month. It’s always the same.”

“Oh.”

I tried not to look disappointed. Though I still had two of my sexy roommates, I’d wanted to at least kiss Hunter good morning. After the night we’d had, it seemed only right.

“Don’t worry,” Brandon said. “We’ll be taking care of you.”

The way he emphasized taking care made me immediately take notice. My stomach did a sexy backflip.

“Yeah?”

“Oh yeah,” smiled Colin. He threw the football player a knowing smile. “Don’t make any plans for later.”

I pressed the button on the coffee pot and turned back to them, both hands on my hips.

“And why’s that?” I asked.

“Because tonight,” said Brandon proudly. “We’re taking you out on a date.”

Now I did turn red. I felt myself starting to sweat a little. “A date?”

“Yes.”

“With… the both of you?”

“Uh huh,” said Colin.

My heartbeat kicked into overdrive. “Tonight...”

“Unless you wanna go some other night,” said Brandon. “But I’m thinking that tonight?” He winked. “You really should come with us.”

I glanced up at my two sexy lovers, both of whom were staring down at me. Like they wanted to eat me or something. Which would’ve been just fine, as far as I was concerned…

“Alright, it’s a date,” I shrugged with a smile. “I have to warn you guys though, I can be sort of expensive. The kind of date who’s not afraid to order the lobster.”

Colin laughed. Brandon, I could tell, wasn’t exactly sure what I was driving at.
