“Even then,” Michael says quietly.

“Oh.” I try to swallow around the lump in my throat. “Um… thank you.”

“You’re welcome,” they say in unison.

I clear my throat. “So, if I wasn’t with you, would you have picked her?”

“No,” Josh says automatically.

“Because,” Michael says, “as you said—she’s desperate. She was practically throwing herself at Josh. There’s something erotic about the chase.” He grins.

Christian and Josh nod their heads in agreement.

Something inside me is pleased. I try to hide my smile behind the menu, but Christian tugs a strand of my hair teasingly.

“I saw that,” he says, chuckling. Then he turns to Josh and Michael. “She wants us.”

Their gazes turn heated again. I quickly deflect the attention from me to the food. “So, what do you guys want to eat?”

“You know what I want?” Josh asks.

“What?”

He levels a look at me. “You. Spread out on this table like our own personal feast.”

My breath catches in my chest. “Oh…”

Josh smiles conspiratorially at his friends. “I love making her nervous.”

I roll my eyes. “How does a burger sound?”

“Sure, sounds great,” Michael murmurs, leaning in and doing unspeakable things to my earlobe. Wetness pools between my legs and dampens my panties. These three will be the death of me.

“Stop,” I chuckle, pushing him away.

“I can’t. You’re… tantalizing.”

I give him an incredulous look. “Yeah. Sure.”

I return my attention to my menu, trying to decide between a cheeseburger and a chicken sandwich.

“What do we have to do to make you realize how beautiful you are?” Michael asks.

I chew on my bottom lip. “I don’t know. No one has ever called me that before, so I’m just not used to hearing it.”

The three of them stare at me with something like affection in their eyes. Josh opens his mouth to say something, but Candi finally returns with our drinks. As she hands them out, she once again eyes my men like a vulture.

“Do you all know what you want, or do you need more time?” she asks sweetly.

We’d spent so much time talking about other things that we hadn’t even talked about what we want to eat.

Christian speaks up and orders for all of us. “We’ll just have cheeseburgers with fries. Well done.Both.” He looks around the table at each of us, and we give him a nod of approval.

Candi nods and takes our menus. “Four well-done cheeseburgers and fries. Coming right up.”

She makes a show of turning slowly, giving themafull view of her ass in her tight skirt, before sauntering away to put the order in. I just roll my eyes and fold my arms across my chest. Michael runs a hand over my hair.

“So, why did you all bring me here?” I ask curiously, taking a sip of my Coke. “Why do you call this diner home?”
