“Let me guess, we're going to binge watchBuying Beverly Hills?”I guessed.

“Nooo.” Rafe drew out the word. “Although, I'd happily call the boss ‘Daddy’ any time.” He fanned himself.

“He is a snack,” Jacoby agreed. “But we decided on a binge watch of theLord of the Ringsmovies.”

I glanced over at Cam, curious about his reaction.

He glanced back at me. The look in his brown eyes made my pulse race like crazy. “Works for me. As long as Andi is good with that?”

“I'm definitely good with it,” I agreed. “I like all things nerdy.”

He nodded and draped an arm over the back ofthe couch, behind my shoulders. “Me too. Especially if I get to do it with you.” He leaned in to kiss my cheek.

“Swoon!” Rafe said happily. “You're both just too fucking adorable.” He nudged Jacoby with his elbow. “Aren't they just?”

“Almost as adorable as us,” Jacoby agreed. “That happens to be a very high yardstick, by the way. Given Rafe and I are cuter than a basket of kittens.”

“I'm not sure if anything is cuter than a basket of kittens, but you're very cute,” I replied.

Should it have felt strange to sit here with Cam, Rafe and Jacoby? Xander never came to our binge nights. He always made himself busy instead. Or had a convenient headache.

Being here with Cam felt natural, like we'd done it a million times before. Rafe and Jacoby were excellent judges of character, and if they liked him, maybe I could start to surrender to the feelings that were getting more and more difficult to fight.

Rafe picked up the remote and started the first movie.

I settled back against my seat and into Cam's side. He smelled of soap, and shampoo, and a subtle cologne that had my clit sniffing the air.If he was food, I would have gobbled him up in a couple of bites.

Instead, I dug into the bowl of popcorn, topped with butter and salt, and snacked on that.

“This feels good,” he whispered in my ear. “I like being here with you. With my…girlfriend?”

The last word was spoken so softly I wasn't sure if I heard it at all. Girlfriend? Was that what I was? I liked the sound of it.

My heart fluttering, I said, “It's nice to be here with my boyfriend.”

When we first met, he seemed to hate my guts at first sight. I would never, in my wildest dreams, have imagined we'd be here like this. But now we sat snuggled together, sharing popcorn and a movie. With no one but our friends to see or scrutinize. No phones to catch us kissing, no big screens to share it with the world.

Just a quiet, intimate moment in front of what had to be the biggest television in existence.

Rafe and Jacoby never did anything by halves.

“Boyfriend,” Cam whispered. “I like the way that sounds.” He kissed my temple.

“I'd suggest you get a room, but it wouldn't be the first time people had sex in here,” Rafe said over hisshoulder.

I grimaced at the back of his head. “TMI, Rafe.”

He looked back and grinned. “Just don't make a mess.”

I had no intention of fucking here, in his media room, especially not with both of them present. I did want to make love to Cam someday soon though.

I'd thought about inviting him to share a shower with me the other day at his apartment, but it wasn't the right time. Not even after the fun we had flinging flour at each other.

I'd kept my word, making a large donation to the food bank, to make up for being so wasteful. I also made a note in my calendar to give them regular donations. No one in the world should experience food insecurity. Anything I could do to help eradicate it, I'd do.

I'd already decided the charity gala my mother and I were going to organize would raise donations for various food banks up and down the east coast. I'd ensure every millionaire and billionaire I knew would contribute. It was the least all of us could do to give back to the community that made us who we were. We could do so much more, and we would, I'd make sure of that.

I nestled up against Cam to enjoy the movies and forget about the real world for a while.
