The three of us have been sitting on the couch, but Noah decided he’d rather sit on the floor across from us.

“Does that mean we can snuggle now?”

Blair’s face softens from the up in arms look he’s had the last few minutes, and with a small bob of his head Noah springs up from the floor, clamoring over the table, and depositing himself straight into Blair’s lap.

They laugh, arms wrapping around each other, and Blair kisses the top of his head.

“I’m guessing that’s not new either?” Shiloh asks, eyeing his can like he’s ready to empty it out.

“Nope,” Blair pops the ‘P’ a little too deliberately. “Before you ask, we aren’t dating. Noah is asexual and aromantic; He has no interest in getting in my pants or being life partners or anything.”

“However,” Noah pipes in, laying his head on Blair’s chest and watching us through his big, blue, doe-like eyes. “Kissing is very much on the table. Can I do that now?”

“No—” Blair says at the same time Shiloh says, “Yes!”

Blair frowns and Noah beams.

“Noah,” Blair says, using the stern voice I’ve only ever heard him use on Shiloh. “I don’t want to kiss right now.”

If B is Blair… B loves kissing.

Even though his words are firm, he runs a gentle hand up and down the length of Noah’s back, like he’s soothing a child.

“Noah could kiss Atlas.”

All heads in the room turn to me just as my head shoots up.

I’m not buying the innocent look on Shiloh’s face for a second. He leans over and puts a hand on my knee.

“You might be bi, too, right? Why not test that out?”

I can’t tell him that I already know the answer, that it’s at least fifty percent (and maybe even a hundred if I can convince myself) because of his brother that I confirmed it.

Especially not with Blair right there. What if he connects the dots, too? Oh god, what if he realizes when he found me today was right after we had freaking phone sex?

Oh, double god. What if he already does know?

Shiloh doesn’t wait for me to answer, just grins and leans around me.

“Noah, truth or dare?”

Noah tips his head back, looks at Blair and then looks at Shiloh.

“Dare.”

My best friend’s grin widens. “I dare you to kiss Atty.”

Noah clambers out of Blair’s lap and onto mine, putting his hands on my shoulders and pressing me back against the couch.

“This okay?” he asks, tilting his head and giving me a genuinely sweet smile.

I guess it can’t hurt, I think as I settle my hands on his waist and nod.

He drops his head so fast his nose bumps into mine, but that doesn’t deter him from repositioning and fitting our mouths together. I chuckle, and he playfully nips at my lip before pressing little soothing kisses all over.

In all honesty, it only makes me laugh harder, even though I try to return the kiss. Eventually, he gives up and bites my chin, puffing his cheeks out when he pulls away.

“You’re a horrible kisser.”
