arrangement?”
“The last one apparently was, until, well…” Seth pauses.
“Well, what?”
“Until she walked in on us sharing another girl. She didn’t mind him fucking around with me to ‘scratch that itch,’ but she wasn’t okay with him screwing around with another girl I brought home. Honestly, I think he did it on purpose to get her to leave him instead of it being the other way around.”
“Shit. I don’t know what the hell to think or feel right now.” My mind is reeling.
“Why don’t you come back to the firehouse? I’d come to you, but I’m on call still.”
“No. I can’t. Not yet. That was, this is, too much to process right now. I need some time to think. To let it all sink in.”
“I can understand that. Take your time. You know where I’ll be when you’re ready to talk. Okay?”
“Okay. Bye.”
I hang up the phone without giving him another chance to say anything else. Bi! What the hell do I do with this information?
I toss the phone back into my purse, slap the Jeep into first gear and start driving. I let the entire conversation play over in my head again. Honestly, it’s on repeat. He’s definitely into me, but into dick as well. A few days ago I would have shut this down on the spot, but that damn dream induced by Rachel’s damn words…
Before I know it, I’m pulling up in front of Rachel’s gated subdivision and pressing the call button.
“Hello?” A male voice comes over the intercom.
“Mr. Upton, it’s Macy. I was hoping I could come in to see Rachel.”
“Of course, Macy.” I hear a buzzing, and the gate starts to slide. “Drive on down.”
“Thank you.” I put the Jeep back into gear and head down the road, taking the second left and pulling onto the private drive that leads back a quarter mile to their house. The entire subdivision sits on about three hundred acres of land, and there are less than ten houses; estates rather, comprising the entirety. Yeah, like I said before, filthy-stinking-rich Daddy’s girl. But she loves me, and I love her to the moon and back, so, it works.
I pull up the circular drive all the way to the front receiving area. Rachel is already on the porch, sipping on a bottled water, waiting for me.
“Did someone die?”
I shake my head no.
“Okay, then do I need to put a hit out on someone? You know I’ll do it. I know people.”
She can always make me smile, even in the dark moments.
“I have something that’s come up, and it’s really confusing.” I shut the Jeep door and we walk up the steps and inside. “I’m questioning everything. You remember that dream I was telling you about? Well, it has to do with that in a way. And since that just happens to be your fault, you get to deal with the fallout.”
“Um, okay?”
“After you dropped me off, I unpacked and then on a spur of the moment, I decided to put on the new lingerie and go surprise Seth with a little visit at the firehouse.” I pause, my face completely impassive. I could bluff the World Poker Tour’s best out of a full house right now.
“So far everything sounds fine. What happened to upset you like this?”
I lower my voice since we haven’t made it into the safety of her room yet. “I caught Robbie sucking Seth’s cock.”
Rachel spits out the last drink of water she just took. “What?! Are you shitting me right now?”
“Nope. Turns out he and Robbie are both bi.”
“So now you’re questioning whether or not to stay with Seth, huh? You poor thing. You just can’t catch a break, can you?”
Rachel shuts her bedroom door behind us. I walk to one of the floor-to-ceiling windows looking out over the back of their property. I take in a slow deep breath, release it through pursed lips, and turn back to her. “No, actually I’m questioning whether or not to let them share me.”
For the second time in as many minutes, Rachel sends her sip of water spewing forth. “Macy Renee, you little slut. Never in a million years did I
