“We got fired.” Connor pulled at the back of his neck. “We might have, um…been fucking one of the waitresses in the break room during our lunch hour when our boss walked in.”
Seth sighed, but he wasn’t surprised his brothers had ignored his advice. “I take it he was pissed?”
They exchanged another glance, then Jack’s grimace turned even more guilty. “Well, if you’d seen two dudes going at your barely legal daughter in a semi-public room…”
Pressing his forehead to his palm, Seth shook his head, trying both not to be annoyed and not to laugh. “That would do it.”
“Yeah. He told us not to come back,” Connor admitted.
“Which is fine by us. That gives us more time to ourselves before we head home. Hey, we’re partying on Saturday night with the guys we met this summer. If you and Beck want to come, we’re going to take Zach to his first titty bar. He loves tits. Hell, he’s a horny bastard in general.”
“Yep. When he found his inner freak, he found it hard.” Connor frowned. “Wait a minute… Does Zach know about you three?”
“He does. And since you three shared an apartment all summer, I guess he’s known for a while that you two like to put a woman between you.”
“Yep, and that son of a bitch never said a word—to either of us,” Jack grumbled.
Seth had to smile. “I’ll be damned. Should have known Beck’s brother would be sly. Must run in the family.”
Jack laughed. “Probably. Sometimes he’s really earnest and do-goody, but he’s a decent dude.”
“Beck, too.”
Jack gaped. “Do you, um…fuck each other?”
“No.”
“Not that there’s anything wrong with being gay or bi or whatever, if that does it for you.” Connor frowned.
“There isn’t, but it doesn’t,” Seth assured. “We’re strictly girl-in-between.”
“We get that.” Curiosity seemed to get the best of him again. “Is it super weird to share a woman with a guy you don’t know, like, really, really well?”
Seth pondered that. “No. Once we stopped fighting over Heavenly and got on the same page, it didn’t just feel different, it felt right. I think I knew then that, with the two of them is where I belong.”
The twins exchanged a befuddled glance, then Jack shrugged. “Well, we’re happy for you, bro. Really. You keep doing you.”
“Thanks. I guess, then…you two should keep doing you, too.”
At least until they ran into problems with a woman they both fell for and needed advice.
“Thanks.” Connor smiled. “So…if we’re staying for dinner, you got a beer?”

Aloud buzzing noise jolted Heavenly out of a sound sleep. She moaned when the electronic whir chimed again.
Beside her, Seth rolled over. “Who the fuck is calling at this hour?” he grumbled as he groped for his device. “Hello?”
Lifting her heavy lids, she saw Seth sitting up—cell phone pressed to his ear—silhouetted by the moonlight spilling through the window, painting his sculpted back and shoulders in a silvery hue.
“Hey, man,” Seth greeted, then pinned her with a stunned stare. “They’re at the hospital? Now?”
“Who?” She sat up, trying to clear the fog of sleep.
On her other side, Beck bolted upright, scrubbing a hand over his face. “Someone needs me at the hospital?”
“No,” Seth assured. “River’s calling. Raine is in labor.”
