“Hey!” I chirped.

She gave me a funny look and smiled back. “Hey, what’s up?” She smiled.

“Um, nothing.” I glanced over my shoulder nervously as she looked me up and down, pursing her lips.

“You look like you just had sex…oh, are they here? Right now!” She shouted. I ran to her and grabbed her arms. “Ew, don’t touch me. Love you, but don’t touch me.” She giggled and stepped back. I smiled at her but realized she was right and moved to wash my hands.

“Yes, they are here so keep it down.”

“So, after a week of nothing they show up and you hop into bed with your band of…merry men?” I let the water run and turned to face her as I took in her tone.

“What is that supposed to mean? What do you mean by that?”

She shrugged. “Nothing. Just they didn’t say anything to you for a week and you’ve just had sex with them. I don’t think they care about you. And from the way you were this past week, this is beyond just having fun for you.”

“Are you judging me?” My throat welled as I fought tears and my eyes stung.

I stared back at her as I heaved. Angry and frustrated at how I came from the middle of bliss to this. I had no idea she felt

this way.

“What?” She came towards me and grabbed me by my elbows. “No, I could never. I’m sorry if it seemed like that. I just…I’m worried about you!” She said in a hushed whisper.

“I know…I know.”

“Do you know what to do?”

I shrugged. I sort of knew.

“Maybe. I just know that…I feel like they care about me.”

“That’s enough for me then. I’ll be in my room so they can finish sneaking out.”

She smiled softly and I nodded as she disappeared and shut the door behind her. I took an uneasy breath, still uncertain about how she felt when I went back in the room.

They were both dressed and lacing up their shoes in a tandem manner. It was nice to look at.

“Who was that?” Jake asked me.

“My roommate.” I answered. Logan gave me a look and I almost frowned. Saying of course she wasn’t the one who told people about some rumor. My name was never mentioned anyway. It was all a dumb gossip, but it was still possible. And I wanted to be careful about things.

“Okay. You can kick us out now.”

They both stood. Their presence stretched the room to its limit. They walked past me and to the door as I followed. I inhaled their scent as it permeated the room, I would miss it even though it was everywhere on me. But I would have to shower and then it would still be there.

“We will see you later.”

Logan came towards me first as Jake stood in the open doorway. Sometimes he likes to watch, no matter what we do. He secured my face in his warm, strong hands and kissed me, soft and sweet. I nodded when he pulled away. I crossed the space to the doorway as Jake pulled me to him by my waist and crashed his lips to mine. God, when he kissed me I come apart and seam together all at the same time and it leaves me breathless.

“Oh my.” I whispered as he pulled away. He smirked and chuckled.

I came to just in time to see them wave goodbye and then shut the door.

Logan

I sat at my computer coding for hours. It usually relaxed me, but today I was just frustrated. I couldn’t get out of my head. I was always thinking of Madeline. That woman is something else. Beautiful, smart, sexy. She has it all and it kills me.
