“I wish you would have told me sooner,” Ann whispered as she bent down and brushed her lips across Lila’s. “If only because it would have been easier on everyone—especially you.”
“Well, I’m damn stubborn sometimes,” Lila teased back. “You know that.”
“I do.” Ann nipped Lila’s lip. “My hips are hurting. Do you mind?”
“Never.”
Ann flopped onto her back and spread her legs until Lila moved between them. Lying down as best she could, Lila focused on Ann. This woman was just about everything for her—they both were. She couldn’t imagine the next five years without them, or the next ten. Heidi had scared the shit out of her with that question because the answer had been on the tip of her tongue without a second thought.
She wanted them. She wanted to be with them. To be loved by them and to love them. They were everything to her. Ann gripped Lila’s hair tightly, her knees clasping against the sides of her head as she cried out loudly and signaled her own orgasm. As soon as Lila was released, there was a knock on the door.
Heidi stood, grinning at the two of them. “Dinner is ready, whenever you are.”
“I’m going to shower,” Ann said. “Get this workday grime off me.”
“I’ll save you a plate.” Heidi left them alone.
Laughing, Ann threw a hand over her eyes and let out a sigh. “Fuck me.”
“I just did.”
“You’re an ass sometimes,” Ann teased. “I did not think you’d show up tonight. I figured we’d be dragging your ass here in a few weeks when you finally gave in and texted one of us.”
“I guess I’m not as stubborn as I thought.”
“Maybe. But what does this all mean?”
“Nothing in some ways. I’m not moving in here, but I do want to be here.”
Ann narrowed her gaze. “What?”
“I still want to see other people, but I do want to be committed to both of you for the long haul.”
“And still no threesomes—just to be clear on that front, because both Heidi and I are open to that if you are.”
Lila tensed, and she took a deep breath to relax herself. “No, not for now. I’ll let you know if that changes.”
“You got it.” Ann kissed Lila gently. “You want to shower with me?”
“You’re insatiable.”
“Well, I get home and find you and Heidi, and yeah, sorry not sorry. It was sexy.”
Lila shook her head. “I think you better shower, and I’m going to entertain Heidi for a bit. What do you think she cooked, anyway?”
Ann choked. “Something that imitates meat, guaranteed. I miss meat some days.”
“Well, with two of us around more often, we may just convert her to the dark side.”
Shaking her head, Ann rolled her eyes. “Good luck with that. I’ve tried on and off for years, and she’s a staunch vegan. I eat what she cooks because frankly I’m not one for cooking.”
“All right. Go. Shower. I’m hungry.”
Ann raked her gaze over Lila’s naked body. “You just ate.”
“Shut up.” Lila’s cheeks heated. “Maybe later. You have me all night.”
“And tomorrow morning. Heidi has to go to work in the morning. I don’t.”
