“I’m sorry too.” She was. She’d been overwrought. Her mom all the time accused her of being melodramatic. Final evening had been an ideal instance of that character flaw.

Rodney grinned. “Issues all the time look higher within the morning.”

She thought-about the actual fact they have been caught in an odd city with no cash and a success man on their path, and have been no nearer to discovering the flash drive. Then she remembered Matt and Mark, the best way they’d caressed and kissed her final evening. She smiled too. Perhaps issues weren’t so dangerous in spite of everything.

“So I take it you and Jacob had fun final evening?”

Rodney leaned nearer, his face answering her query with out phrases. He appeared downright cheerful. “It was okay.”

She laughed, selecting up her pillow and lobbing it at his head. “You go to hell for mendacity.”

He dodged her blow. “Hey, I’d say as compared along with your night, my evening was solely okay. I simply can’t think about how your pants—and panties—ended up on the ground.”

Fucking observant cop. “I’m not answering that.”

“Come on, kitten. We’ve been residing celibate lives right here. You gotta give me some particulars. Inquiring minds need to know. Which James twin have been you with?”

She blushed. She thought he’d figured it out already, however apparently he hadn’t. Saying it aloud was going to be robust. “I wasn’t with both of them. We simply form of fooled round some.”

Rodney nodded. “Okay. So that you fooled round. Who with?”

She opened her mouth, decided to place him off, however then she thought higher of it. She wanted recommendation. Unhealthy.

“Each of them.”

Rodney was silent for under a second, and when he opened his mouth, it wasn’t to talk or choose or condemn her. It was worse. He laughed. Loudly.

Her mood was piqued. “This isn’t humorous.”

Rodney continued to chuckle. “You’re rattling proper, it’s not. It’s fucking sizzling. Holy shit, girlfriend. I knew you have been fairly cool, however I had no thought?—”

She smacked him on the shoulder. “I’ve by no means performed something like that earlier than. Hell, I’ve by no means even had a one-night stand. That is simply…” She threw her arms out in frustration. “I would like recommendation right here. I’m flying blind. Huge time.”

“And also you assume I can let you know methods to proceed on this little threesome you’re indulging in? Don’t imply to disillusion you, Bridge, however I suck at relationship one individual at a time.”

“You don’t assume I’m, oh, I don’t know, form of slutty for messing round with each of them?”

He shook his head. “You don’t have a slutty bone in your physique. Do you assume that is regular for them? I imply, perhaps it’s a twin factor.”

“No,” she replied rapidly. “They mentioned final evening it was new for them too. I’m unsure why I’m even letting myself get carried away with this. Now we have to go away quickly after which?—”

A knock on the door prevented her from ending.

Rodney stood and opened the door. Matt and Mark stood within the threshold. She glanced on the clock. After their late-night argument, she and Rodney had slept in. It was practically eleven o’clock.

“Nonetheless in mattress, sleepyhead?” Matt requested.

Rodney got here to her protection. “We had a little bit of a tough evening. Thought we’d deal with ourselves to a lazy morning.”

Mark walked in to the room, concern written on his face. “Extra dangerous desires?”

She shook her head. “No. It was nothing actually. Every part’s higher in the present day.”

“Good,” Matt mentioned, getting into the room and lifting up a basket. “As a result of we’re taking you on a picnic.”

“A picnic?” She laughed. “It’s February. And freezing exterior.”

Mark shrugged, unconcerned. “The place’s your sense of journey?”
