She rolled over onto her side, facing me and cupping my cheek. Her thumb brushed along my mouth, sparking a hint of need somewhere deep inside of me. My cock twitched, jumping against the fly of my pajama pants. It begged for her but as much as I always wanted her, we hadn’t had sex since finding out she was pregnant a few days ago.

“Vince?” Her eyes darkened, her voice dripping with lust. “Can we…”

Slipping a hand beneath the covers, I brushed the back of my knuckles over her stomach and delved lower until I reached the apex between her thighs.

“Please,” she whispered.

“Shhh…I’ll take care of you.” I kissed her forehead, slipping my fingers into her panties. I wouldn’t have sex with her. Not yet. I feared that I would hurt the baby. Add to the fact that she wasn’t out of the first trimester yet, it increased the anxiety rushing through me.

“I want you.” She licked her lips.

“And I wantyou. I always want you, but we can’t.”

She pouted. “But—” My finger slowly slid inside of her. “God.”

“I want to make sure the baby is safe first.”

“It is.” She panted.

I chuckled. “I’ll take care of you, Queenie.”

And I did.

It was the following weekend and I was stuck helping Rory with the renovations he was doing on the house he had purchased. I hadn’t seen him in what felt like forever and even longer since I’d talked to him.

When I showed up at his house, my stomach twisted as he bounded out of it, down the steps, and stomped toward me. Guess we were doing this now.

“What the fuck is this I hear that you hit on my girlfriend?” he demanded, closing the distance between us and pushing me.

“Excuse me?” I shoved him back. “That’s not what happened.”

“That’s not what she said.” His face was red, his eyes dark with fury.

“What the hell? I tried calling you, fucker. I wanted to tell you what happened, so we wouldn’t be where we are now, but you’ve been ignoring my calls and texts.” I took a step to the left when he went to shove me again. “Listen to me. She came over and hit on me. She said that it was a joke and that you put her up to it.”

Rory’s brows dropped in the center. “Why the hell would I do that?”

“How the fuck am I supposed to know?” I sidestepped away from him when he went to push me again. “Listen, something is going on with her, but I don’t know what it is. It’s none of my business but—”

“You’re right. It’s not your fucking business.” He walked past me, shouldering me in the process.

“That’s how it’s going to be? We made a fucking promise that we wouldn’t let a woman come between us,” I reminded him, unsure what the hell this was about. “We’ve known each other way too damn long for our friendship to end because you believe your girlfriend over me.”

Rory stopped, looking at me over his shoulder. “She’s always had a crush on you.”

My eyes widened, my stomach clenching. “What?”

“She hinted at a threesome one night when she was drunk.” Rory looked away, his shoulders slumping.

“Listen, I love you and Mason like brothers. I would never do that.”

“I know.” Rory sighed, meeting my gaze that time. “I told her that you were in love with Gigi and that there was no way you would ever consider doing that shit with us. Even if you were single. It’s not even my thing but I wanted to make her happy. So I suggested we ask Mason.” He shrugged. “But nothing happened. Just some flirting. I wouldn’t put him in that position anyway, but she’s been…”

“Weird?” I offered.

Rory nodded.
