Her brows furrow. “I’m sorry, are you not okay with that?”
“No, no. I am. I so am. I just wasn’t sure if you were. We haven’t really talked about it, you know?’
“Huh,” she breathes out. “You're right. Well, our parents know, and that’s all I really care about. They are fine with it. So I don’t see any reason to keep it secret. The only reason I had to stay away from you last year was because of Stacy, and seeing how she doesn't have any control over me anymore, I’d very much like to live my life the way I want to. And that means being out in the open with my boyfriends.”
“And you are okay with that? Everyone knowing you have three boyfriends?”
“Yes.” She raises a brow. “Are you?”
“Of course."
“Then it’s settled. We don’t hide. Let's be ourselves. And fuck everyone else.”
“I’d really rather not,” I laugh. “I only want to fuck two people.”
“Yeah?” She grins playfully, and I realize I walked right into that one.
“Y-yes.”
“You are so damn cute, you know that?” She boops me on the nose. “Did Kai talk to you?” I nod. “And he told you he was coming over tonight?” I nod again. “So he demanded you watch a movie with us?”
“Yes.” I can’t help but laugh. Honestly, I love his domineering personality.
“Good.” She gives my lips a peck. “It’s a scary movie and I need two big, strong men to keep me from jumping out of my skin.”
“Don’t worry, Cupcake,” I reassure. “We will protect you.”
And we would. I’d do anything for this girl.
Chapter 15
Delaney
“Happy Valentine's Day!” Winter bounces over to me. It’s after my first class of the day, and I’m walking across campus to my next class.
Today already started off amazingly. Logan made me breakfast, and I got to hang out with him and Benny before school.
Elijah worked late and slept in because his first class wasn’t until noon. But he did text me as soon as he woke up with an adorable Snapchat of his sleepy face with the caption ‘Happy Valentine's Day, I love you.”
I’ve been walking on air all day. As soon as I got to school, Kai was there waiting for me with a coffee in one hand, a big-ass teddy bear in the other, and a kiss.
The guys and I talked about where we’d go when it comes to our relationship. I told them I was more than okay with us being public. I’m not the kind of person to care what other people think. And it’s none of their business who I’m dating.
Am I worried about the backlash regarding dating my stepbrothers on top of dating a professor? A little bit.
Not because I care what people think. Again, I don’t. I just don’t want it to cause issues for the guys.
They were adamant that they didn’t care, that they share the same mindset as me.
So, today I’ve just been going with the flow. I didn’t make some big dramatic show with Kai, but I was excited and thankful for his gifts, feeling like a woman madly in love. And I did kiss him back, and yes, people were watching.
I’m sure the news has it’s made its way around the school by now. No one has said anything to me just yet, though.
“Hey,” I laugh as Winter struggles to see over the massive bouquet of flowers wrapped up in her arms. “What's all that?”
Winter stops before me, a little out of breath as her cheeks heat. “Justin got them for me,” she says softly. “Aren’t they beautiful?”
“They’re gorgeous.” I grin. “But wanna tell me why he got you something for Valentine's Day?”
