“What do we do about this couple?” Blaine asked.
I frowned, “What?”
He showed me a picture of three beautiful, young men, “As you can see – they’re not actually a ‘couple’.
I grinned, “Cool.” I said, “A bona fide throuple.”
“But three guys can’t seriously be in love with each other, can they?” He asked.
I blinked, “Why not?” I countered a little defensively, “Who are we to tell them what they can and can’t feel? Although I wouldn’t be surprised if one of them is suffering horribly from jealousy. Threesomes are rarely a long-term success.”
His face reddened. He turned to Denny, “Oh, my God,” he said, sounding horrified at himself, “am I being prejudiced?” Denny gave him a sympathetic shrug but said nothing. “Shit.” He exclaimed loudly, “I’ve fought against prejudice my whole adult life and now I’m falling into the same trap as my parents and all those narrow-minded individuals who see us as unnatural for loving another man.”
Denny squeezed his shoulder, “Hey, don’t feel bad,” he crooned, “I’m actually as amazed that they’re maintaining a commitment with each other equally as you are. But I think they’ve booked with us to work a few things out – and I’m confident that they will work things out here – one way or the other too.” He said, “And don’t feel bad to think that way. I actually happen to agree with you – I think jealousy will kill whatever they’ve got – but if they want to give it a go – let’s give them the chance.”
I grinned at them. Denny was so reasonable. Bless him. As much as I’d defended the three young men, I knew in my heart of hearts that I too couldn’t share someone with another guy. I wanted my man to love me and no one else. I thought of Nathan and his scowl and my dick twitched. It was such a shame he was straight…
Denny noticed my melancholy and brought up the subject I really didn’t want to discuss after the meeting. “So, anything to share?” he asked, “I’ve noticed you and Nathan have struck up quite the friendship.”
I blushed, “Yeah.” I agreed, “I like him.”
“You like him?” Denny asked, leaning forward and looking at me as if I was quite mad.
I felt my face heating up, “Yeah,” I admitted a little defensively, “I do. He’s a nice guy when he’s not being an obnoxious twat.”
Denny chuckled, “Nicely put.”
Blaine looked at me with a frown on his face, “And when isn’t he being an obnoxious twat?” he asked, looking a little shell-shocked the hear that he was actually a total sweetheart.
I smiled, “When he’s sharing a bottle of wine over dinner with me and we’re chatting about life.” Like he had last night. I’d finally got him to come around to my place…
Both of their jaws dropped and I felt a little flicker of hope flair inside my chest. Could I really be breaking down his walls?
“Obviously I don’t think of him as a prospective partner or anything…” Shit.
