"Why are you two bothering me?" I ask. "I clearly came to the deep end to be alone."
"Maybe we just wanted to swim," Jeremiah suggests.
I arch a brow at him. "Then, go swim over there."
"The view over here is much better," Ezekiel says.
I tilt forward, bringing my feet to the floor of the pool, but I don't get far before Ezekiel is standing before me.
"I would have thought we were done running after last night."
"I am not running, Ezekiel. I just don't see the sense in acting like anything has changed when it hasn't. We had fun last night." I ignore his smirk to continue saying, "But last night was last night. Today, we're in the same place we were in yesterday before we had sex."
"Fucked," Jeremiah's voice rumbles behind me. "We fucked."
I have to fight too damn hard to suppress the shiver that tries to race through me.
"Whatever you wanna call it." I shrug with a casualness I wish I felt. "But I still don't want more, so we've gone as far as we're going to go."
Ezekiel gives a dark chuckle." You say that like we'd done all that we want to do with you."
I can't hide it this time, the way my eyes widen and my mouth drops open in want.
"You keep pushing us away because you don't want more," Jeremiah states. "But we've never asked you for more than your body. And clearly your body loves what we do to it, so why not just continue with that. Your body between ours. That's all. There's no need to complicate everything else. We meet up, and Zek and I give you what you need."
"You don't think that's flirting with danger?" I ask, but my mind is already demanding I accept their offer.
"Danger of what?" Ezekiel questions right back.
I decide to just say what my fear is, desperate for them to say some words that will soothe this uncertainty in me, so I can tell them yes.
"Of feelings getting involved. Of hearts getting involved. Of things growing beyond the bedroom and just fucking up everything."
"Would that be so horrible, Lexa?" Jeremiah asks.
"Yes. I have absolutely no want whatsoever to love the two of you."
I don't expect Ezekiel's eyes to narrow or the scowl that his lip curls into. "Because what would people think, right? About you being with two men?"
My head snaps back in surprise at his words. "What? That's not what I meant."
"Zek," Jeremiah mumbles.
Ezekiel looks over my head at his brother and whatever passes between them has Ezekiel's shoulders loosening, his chest rising and falling with a deep breath. What the hell was that all about?
"Well, there is zero chance of feelings developing," Ezekiel says. "So, does that mean you'll be at our house this weekend?"
I remain silent for a moment, looking at Ezekiel, feeling Jeremiah's presence behind me. The answer is easy in the way that I'm wishing they would just fuck me right now. Rip my bikini bottom off and share me right in this water.
"Yes," I answer.
Ezekiel smiles, a genuine smile, even if it is small. "I'll make sure to roll out the red carpet for you."
"Just roll your tongue and your hips. That's all I need from you."
He groans. "Oh, how I love when you make sexy jokes. See you soon, Queen Lexa."
He disappears under the water, body cutting through the pool until he's at the other end. I turn around to face Jeremiah.
