Well, hello, beautiful. I wasn’t expecting to hear from you.
Ezra:
We’re glad you reached out, though.
I stare at the screen, my mind racing.Am I really doing this? Am I ready for this?I take a deep breath, trying to steady the butterflies in my stomach. Yes, I tell myself.
Wren:
I’m a bit surprised at myself, but I've been thinking about your proposition…
My fingers hover over the keyboard, my mind racing.What do I say? How do I even begin to explain the tangled mess of emotions I'm feeling?
Elijah:
Is that so? And just what have you been thinking about, exactly? ;)
I feel a blush creeping up my cheeks, and I’m grateful we're not face to face. Typing gives me a chance to gather my thoughts and to be a little bolder than I might be in person.
Wren:
I'm still not sure about the whole “dating two guys” thing. It’s just a lot to wrap my head around.
Ezra's response chimes in, and I can almost picture his serious expression.
Ezra:
It’s not something to rush into. We understand that.
Ezra:
But we’d like to get to know you better, see if there’s something worth exploring.
Elijah:
And we promise to take it slow.
Elijah:
;)
I laugh at Elijah's winking emoji, my nerves easing a little. Their honesty is refreshing, and I find myself wanting to open up to them, even though a part of me is still wary.
Wren:
I’m just not sure how it would work. Dating both of you, I mean. Isn’t it complicated?
Ezra:
It can be, sometimes. But we’ve always been close, even before we started sharing. And we’ve always been honest with each other and our partners.
Elijah:
It’s not like a competition or anything. We’re in it together, you know? It’s about making sure everyone is happy and satisfied.
I bite my lip, considering their words. It’s hard to imagine but the idea isn’t as terrifying as it was a few minutes ago. In fact, it’s starting to sound...intriguing.
Wren:
