"Hey. You guys nearly done?" Foster's voice was loud and annoying.

"We're still getting ready."

"Are you guys dressed?"

"Yes. Why?"

He opened the door. "There's something that Oliver and I wanted to tell you that was a secret. I wanted to tell you at dinner, but I guess we were talking about so many other things that we forgot."

"Okay. What is it?"

"Can you guys come out into the living room? It would be nice for all of us to have this conversation in person at the same time."

"Oh my gosh, Foster. You're so dramatic." I rolled my eyes.

"I'm ready to listen, Foster," Alice said as she walked into the living room. "Is this about me staying here?"

"No, you're good, Alice," he said.

I watched him looking her up and down in her short black dress. His eyes seem to linger for a long time on her legs. As I walked past him, I gave him the eye.

"Don't even think about it," I hissed at him.

He looked at me innocently. "No idea what you're talking about, Rosalie."

"Uh-huh," I said. I stepped out and looked toward Oliver. His eyes widened as he saw me in my slinky red dress. I walked over to him and gave him a sweet, sexy smile. "Hey," I said softly.

"You look fucking hot," he said under his breath. "Fuck. I want to rip that dress off you right now."

"What did you say?" Foster said as he joined us in the living room. "I couldn't hear you."

"I was just mumbling a song to myself." Oliver suddenly turned away.

I withheld a secret smile. I loved turning Oliver on.

"Okay, guys. Oliver and I have decided ..." Foster looked over at Oliver and paused.

"Oh my gosh. Come on. What is it? Are you guys giving us your rooms or what?" I looked over at Alice, who was staring at Foster with a rapt expression on her face.

"No. We're not giving you our rooms, but we do have something even better to tell you," Foster said.

"Oh my gosh. Just tell us, Foster."

"Well, Oliver and I have decided that we're going to buy an investment property together. We both have good jobs, and we've saved a lot of money. We think now is a good time with low interest rates. And well, with you two in town, it just makes sense to have more space."

"Whoa. You're buying a condo?" I said, staring at him in shock. "Really?"

"Well, we were hoping to get a brownstone. We'd need at least four bedrooms. It'd be nice to have a yard, and you know"—he shrugged—"it'll be a good investment."

I stared at Alice in shock.

"Are you guys not going to say anything?" Oliver said, confusion in his voice.

"That is absolutely fantastic." I jumped up, ran over to Foster, and gave him a big hug. "Oh my God. I love you, big brother. Forget everything mean I've ever said about you." I gave him a kiss on the cheek, and then I walked over to Oliver and gave him a big hug too. "You're also amazing, Oliver," I said, I gave him a kiss on the cheek as well.

I felt Oliver's hands on my back, patting me. I stepped back slightly and looked up into his eyes. I could see the lust staring back at me. I really wanted to lean forward and kiss him on the lips, but I didn't want my brother to completely explode.

"You're welcome. I'm glad that makes you happy," Oliver said. "We think it will be the right move."
