“Hey, dick brother.” I look up to find Lancelot sitting in the seat touchy girl was in.

“Yeah?”

“The guy at breakfast.”

“I eat breakfast a lot, you’ll have to be more pacific.”

“Do you mean specific?”

“That’s what I said.”

He looks confused but shakes his head. “Anyway. At the diner when we ran into you. That the boyfriend?”

“Yeah, but can you not tell anyone that?” Guilt is making me feel gross. All twisty and like I’ll throw up.

“Sure.” He shrugs. “Why though?”

“I don’t want anyone to think I’m letting him score or the Gods win because I’m fucking the enemy, you know?”

“That’s gotta be hard. How did you handle it last time we played them?”

“It wasn’t good. We weren’t officially together yet, and I blocked him for at least twenty minutes. Allegedly. I was a real dick about it.”

Lancelot nods like he understands. “Have you guys talked about the upcoming game? How you’ll handle it, both as a couple and individually? It’s gotta be a jumble of emotions right, like either way. If we win, you’re happy we won but feel bad he didn’t. And the reverse too.”

“Why the hell are you talking about emotions when you should be trying to get your dick sucked?” Osha cuffs Lancelot on the back of the head. The man has a point.

“You’re taken, what are you doing?” Lancelot throws back.

Osha wags his eyebrows. “Oh sweet baby gay, we are open to sharing.”

“That’s a real thing?” I ask him.

Cause there’s no way I’m sharing Rhys.

Ever.

“Yeah. We don’t get to see each other much since he’s at Darby U in Colorado. So it’s one of the ways we make it work.”

He has all of Lancelot’s attention now. “So you’re together but you date other people?”

“Nah, we don’t date other people. Just fuck. We video call during it so the other can watch, if we can, or voice call. If neither of those two things can happen, the hook up doesn’t happen.”

“I don’t think I could do that. If someone touched my boyfriend, I’m fighting.” I open my text with Rhys.

My Glory Hole: no ducking ne1 else event if u call mess

Breeder: What are you talking about?
