Andi giggled and kicked her feet in the flow of water in the Jacuzzi.
“That’s better.” Reed nodded. “It kills me when you’re scared or upset.”
She stiffened some, sure the temporary reprieve they’d granted her was over. In the bright light of day, they were going to have to talk more about her fears.
“I know you said this nightmare was different, but we’re obviously at a crossroads.” Cooper frowned, choosing his words carefully, unlike Simon, who would have blurted his feelings out, or Reed, who would rather fuck them out. “Do you think it would help to see the therapist again? You know any of us—all of us, if you want—would be glad to go with you if you think talking to someone would help.”
Andi had gone to a few sessions after moving to Cunningham, but hadn’t kept up with her appointments after she’d felt secure in her new home. Once the guys had finally gotten their act together and moved in with her, she’d felt safe again.
It was the thought of being without them that terrified her now.
“We could do that, sure. It doesn’t hurt to have help working through the kinks in a relationship and, let’s face it, ours is bound to have more pitfalls than most. I think what’s bugging me is realizing that for the past year, I’ve been hiding. Not giving you guys the acknowledgement I should to the rest of the world. I’m the luckiest woman alive, and no one knows it.” Andi sat up, leaning her head on Reed’s shoulder while she clasped Cooper’s hand and hooked her leg over Simon’s. “I don’t want to do that anymore. I want to go places with you guys. Do more things like we did this weekend. Make sure we’re fully embracing our choice to be together.”
“I’m onboard with that.” Cooper nodded.
“Me, too,” Simon said.
“I’ll tell anyone who listens how fortunate I am to have you and two of the best friends a guy could have.” Reed stared at each of them. “I’m not afraid to show the world what we share. Nothing someone else says will change how I feel about what we’ve got going, I promise you that.”
Andi sighed, the warmth of the water—or maybe their affection—seeping into her bones. It felt like a major step in the right direction.
“In that case, are you guys finally going to let me hook you up with tickets to one of the Sabertooths’ games? We’re playing at home next Friday. Want to come?” Simon leaned in, his eyes open wide.
Andi realized then that her timidity had cost them all. It was her turn to support each of them the way they’d done for her. “Of course I’d love to see your work in action. What do you say, guys? Be my dates?”
Reed and Cooper high-fived over her head, then started taking bets on which one of them could eat the most hot dogs.
Andi grinned even as the warmth penetrating her moved farther south. “That sounds fantastic, guys. Until then, let’s make the most of the rest of our time here.”
“What she means is…time for tub sex.” Simon waggled his eyebrows.
Andi would have laughed. Before she could, Cooper had claimed her mouth and Reed straddled her thighs, standing so he could cup her breasts and press the tip of his already hard cock between them. Apparently she wasn’t the only one who liked the idea of going public with their relationship.
Simon slid beneath her so that she was sitting in his lap, her back to his chest, and his hard-on nestled between her thighs.
It didn’t take long before they’d wiped every last trace of worry from her brain and replaced it with undying ecstasy.
