“I’m with child. I’m supposed to glow.”

“Actually, you’re with children.”

“Potato, potato. Don’t change the subject.”

“What was the subject again?”

“You. We have been waiting patiently for details.”

“Details on my sex life?”

“Yes,” they chorus.

“Is that normal? I mean, I know you two share everything, but you’ve been best friends for a long time.”

They exchange a look, having a silent conversation. Harley tips her head and Jewls tilts her chin, both their gazes coming back to me.

“It was bound to happen. Fifty-fifty shot.” Jewls sounds disappointed.

“What was bound to happen?” A tingle snakes over my skin.

“One of them was bound to be bad in bed. It’s nothing to be ashamed of.”

“W-wh-what? Ford isn’t bad in bed.”

“Mediocre is okay,” Harley chirps encouragingly.

Ford mediocre? The thought sends me into a fit of hysteria. I double over until tears blur my vision. “Ford isn’t mediocre at anything. Especially sex.”

“Thank goodness. Now I need to eat. Let’s go.”

I giggle all the way to the kitchen and decline her offer of coffee. My system is already buzzing on a natural high.

“Okay, spill.”

“What do I say? You obviously know we took our relationship to the next level.”

“Would you say that level is more nuclear or stratospheric?” Harley’s approach is much less abrasive than Jewls’ but equally as invasive.

Good cop-slash-bad cop at their finest.

And they’re my friends. The best friends I’ve ever had. This happens. Unlike when Carson and Addie were here, this is a true inquisition with no boundaries.

Still, I take a few minutes, staring into space as if I’m contemplating the world’s greatest mystery and letting them stew.

“Infinitely stratospheric.”

Harley bounces, squealing gleefully.

“Damn, that’s some good shit.” Jewls grins approvingly.

“I guess I have you to thank for… encouraging Ford to—” I stop, not sure how to say it. Ford shared with me parts of his conversation with Jewls. He didn’t offer it up willingly, but I’m understanding the fun of persuasion.

“Encouraging? I shoved him straight out of his comfort zone.”

“You know, there’s something chivalrous about it. Achilles was reluctant to have sex with me when he found out I was a virgin.”

“Really, Jay? That lasted a nano-second.” Jewls calls her out.
