Before she could say anything, they heard footsteps and she saw Hyde grab a big knife from the kitchen shelf. She herself grabbed the smaller one that was placed neatly before her, right next to the plate and the spoon. Seconds passed, and Rene knew that this could be the same man back for the same thing. Only this time, they would be ready, he wouldn’t catch them off guard.

The sound of footsteps grew closer and closer, until finally a silhouette appeared in the doorway. Without waiting a single moment, Hyde jumped on him, and pushed him hard against the opposite wall, pressing the very tip of the sharp blade underneath his neck.

“What the fuck, man!?”

The man Hyde’s knife was pressed against was none other than Jesse, who was now breathing shallowly and watching his every move, with that blade an inch away from his neck vein.

“Oh, it’s you,” Hyde let him go, then walked back into the kitchen.

Rene lowered her knife, her fingers shaking. She pressed them against the pristine white table cloth, in an effort to steady them.

“Why are you sneaking up on us like that?” Hyde asked. “I could have seriously hurt you.”

“You told me Parker isn’t here, so I figured I’d come by and take you out for some beers, take your mind off of all that shit that’s been going on,” Jesse explained, following him into the kitchen.

As soon as he saw Rene, he stopped. Then, a smile illuminated his face.

“I didn’t know you had company,” Jesse waved at Rene and she just quickly nodded.

She didn’t understand why she always felt bashful around him. It was like she was back in high school, a plain looking nerdy girl, having a crush on one of the popular boys. She was sure Jesse was the jock type back then. Hyde, on the other hand, was probably the loner, maybe the poet type if he had any creative juices in him. The two would have been equally different back then, as they were now.

“I just came by to pick up my pocket book,” she was quick to explain herself.

“And the dinner?” Jesse tasted the sauce with a big wooden spoon, then released a satisfied slurp. “Delicious.”

“I figured, we could eat,” Hyde explained. “Since you’re here, you wanna join us?”

Rene felt like someone pricked her in the ass with a needle. The evening promised a romantic dinner with Hyde. Now, with three people involved, it just wouldn’t be the same.

But then, she remembered Alice’s advice again. She liked them both. They both awakened different emotions inside of her, they catered to different needs that she had, even though she had been trying her best to suppress them, and make herself believe that she was over that.

“Won’t I be cramping your style?” Jesse wondered. “I mean, I only see two places set up.”

“Why do you always have to be such a dick? Just sit down, shut up and enjoy yourself.”

The moment she said this, Rene surprised everyone in the room, even herself. The guys looked at each other. The shock and amazement on their faces was priceless. She almost wished she could have taken a picture to make this moment last a bit longer. A second later, and all three burst out into laughter that seemed to last forever.

“Where the Hell did that come from??” Jesse was wiping his tears. He couldn’t stop laughing yet.

“It’s like a wolf arising out of little red riding hood,” Hyde was still in shock, even though the grin on his face told her that he loved this turn of events.

“I’m usually nice and calm, but even I can be a bossy bitch sometimes, I guess,” Rene uncrossed her legs and tapped her fingers on the table a few times.

She wasn’t shaking any longer. She was in full control of her body, of her voice, of the whole situation. This evening was fate. Alright, she helped fate a little in the beginning, with the pocket book and all, but fate took over and sent her not only Hyde, but Jesse as well. Maybe she could have some fun tonight.

“So, what else are you hiding there, underneath the surface?” Jesse walked over to her and took her glass.

She didn’t stop him. He was staring her down, and she didn’t look away for a second. She could feel her cheeks burning red, like they were hot molten lava, but her eyes remained fixated on his. He gulped down her wine in one go, slamming the glass on the table.

“Whoa there, cowboy,” Hyde warned him. “You break it, you buy it.”

Jesse turned to him, and once again, everyone burst into laughter. Rene’s gaze kept switching from one man to the other, then back to the first one, and so on. Suddenly, her kinky thoughts caught her off guard. She remembered Alice’s suggestion about a threesome. What would that feel like? Would they even agree to it? Somehow, she was sure that she would enjoy it. After all, wasn’t that what she’d been dreaming of lately - to be in the arms of a handsome man who would blow her mind? Did it really matter it there were two of them instead of one?

Hyde took off the sauce from the stove, and set another place for Jesse.

“How was your day?” Hyde asked him.

“Oh, you know, the usual,” Jesse lifted his shoulders in a half shrug.
