Thirty minutes later, Ivy stepped out of the bathroom, and Ethan and I both groaned. Her red curls spilled down her shoulders onto a deep blue dress. It was long and flowing with thick straps, but there was a low V cut from the back, exposing her milky white skin that was dotted with more freckles than usual from the LA sun. She spun around with her arms out, looking taller than normal in the heels she was wearing, hidden under the dress. Ethan and I moved for her at the same time, and she laughed as we wrapped our arms around her.
“Form an orderly queue, boys. You can both share me later,” she purred, rubbing her hand over both our cocks.
“Princess,” Ethan groaned.
“Eth, you look stunning. That suit looks hot on you.” He smiled at her, readjusting the erection that was tenting his dark gray trousers. “And Grayson, you look like a rock star. Where’s your suit?”
“I told you the record label expects me to be a certain way. This is how they prefer I look.” I gestured down at my tight black ripped jeans, and black shirt, unbuttoned most of the way, showing off my chest, leather bands around my wrists, and a silver ring on my index finger. “It’s like a uniform. Tanner will have his eye liner in place, Frankie will have smoky eyes and red lips and Mav will look like he just fell out of bed. I’m sorry I’ve not made more effort to impress you both with a sexy outfit, but it comes with the job.”
“You look beautiful, Gray,” Ethan reassured me as he skimmed his fingers down my jaw."
“Ten minutes!” Mav shouted from outside the door.
“Be there in five,” I yelled back.
“Before we go, I got you both something. Well, I got us all something. You don’t have to wear them if you don’t like them. They’re just a gesture. To thank you for being here with me and for taking me back after what I did. For loving me.”
I handed them both a box each from the bag I had delivered earlier, while we were shopping. There were three boxes, each one a different size and shape. They both looked confused, but I nodded, silently telling them to open them.
Ethan opened his first and gasped, his fingers running over the watch I’d had custom-made for him. A black face with titanium hands that moved over three diamonds joined together in a scalene triangle.
“It’s engraved,” I croaked out, nerves stealing my voice.
Turning it over, he read the words I’d had written there.Yours, for all time.He swallowed hard, taking off his old watch and fastening this one onto his wrist, shaking his head at me with a smile.
I turned to Ivy, who opened her box and gently removed the diamond tennis bracelet. In the middle of the thin band was a larger solid star, with the same triangle design on it that was on Ethan’s watch. She turned it over and read the same message—Yours, for all time—and pulled it to her chest, tears pricking her eyes as she smiled at me.
I opened my box and took out a chain with the same triangle shape hanging from it, a diamond in each corner. Ethan took it from my hands and slipped it around my neck, kissing me where it touched my skin. Ivy pulled it between her fingers, turning it over to find all three of our names engraved along its edges.
I coughed, trying to find my voice. “There's a story about three stars—the summer triangle. It’s based on a myth about two people who were in love but separated by the expanse of the milky way. The birds saw how sad they were, so they built a bridge for them to find their way to each other. Legend has it that you know they’re together when those three stars shine brightest in the sky. I know it doesn’t fit exactly with us. Do you know how hard it is to find a good love story about a threesome?” I laughed, running my fingers over the chain. “But I liked the idea of us shining brighter when we’re together. You two are my everything. This is my way of telling you that, but also asking you to be with me. For us to be this triangle, that makes each other shine brighter. Fuck, I think I’m asking you both to marry me.” My heart raced as words I wasn’t expecting spilled from my lips, but I meant every word. I didn’t want to waste another moment without them. “I know you two already are married, and I don’t think it’s even legally possible but, I don’t want to live in a world where you’re not shining by my side.”
“Come on, you three, Mum is going to kill us. We’re so late,” Mav shouted as he hammered on the suite door.
Ivy pulled my lips to hers, kissing me softly.
“Those smooth lips are going to get you into so much trouble later, Grayson. But, yes, my answer is yes.” I reached down and fastened her bracelet, kissing her wrist and wrapping my fingers in hers. I didn’t get a chance to turn to Ethan because an angry Tanner stormed into my room, grabbing me by the arm, and dragging me behind him as he stalked out of the room.
“Still not locking your door, little brother? Come on. We have to go. Ethan, Ivy, wiggle those hips into the car, now!”
Chapter 19
Ethan
Dinnerwaslovely.Normaleven. If you ignore the fact we had to sneak into the restaurant via a back door into a private dining room. Other than that, it was just a family having dinner.
We listened and laughed as Lori and Phil told stories about their children growing up; their bad habits, them as geeky kids, and the days of being on the road in a tiny campervan. It was hard to look at the global phenomena they were now and think about all of them crammed into a van on the road.
I noticed Gray getting quieter through dinner, pushing his food around his plate, itching his skin, which he did when he was overthinking. I slipped my hand under the table and squeezed his knee. His eyes flicked up nervously.
“What’s wrong?” I whispered into his ear, low enough that not even Ivy, who sat on the other side of him, could hear.
“Nothing,” he replied, shaking his head.
“Just so you know, the answer is yes,” I murmured. “In a heartbeat. Let’s talk about it later.”
The smile that spread across his face melted my heart. He wrapped his hand over mine, where we stayed for the rest of the night, neither one of us wanting to let go.
“Are you coming back to the hotel with us, Mum? Dad?” Mav asked their parents.
