Me? Not so much. That’s why it took me so long to realize it was William I wanted all along. But with Cecile, it was different.
Me:She wants them both. She can’t choose.
W.S.:And?
Me:She tried to end things with them a while back because she thought it would get messy. But Jordan doesn’t care that she likes Tobias too. And Tobias … Well, he’s your brother. You know him better than I do. That didn’t stop him from keeping in touch with Cecile and flying to Paris to see her anytime he’s been in Europe, though.
W.S.:I can’t believe he hadn’t told us anything about this.
Me:It’s a complicated situation, for sure. But Liam knew, and I guess that’s why he’s still pissed at him. But I think Tobias is frustrated and misdirecting those feelings at Liam. I can’t see Tobias feeling comfortable sharing Cecile as Jordan does. You Sjöbergs are territorial Vikings.
W.S.:True. We don’t like others touching what’s ours.
But I also want to please you, so I get where Jordan’s
coming from.
Me:So you’re giving me a free pass?
W.S.:Do you have someone in mind you want to sleep with?
Me:Never.
W.S.:Thank God.
Me:Not sure I’m that open-minded, so no free passes
for you either.
W.S.:Hold on. Let me ask the girl in my trailer to get dressed and leave.
Me:*angry emojis*
W.S.:Ok. She’s gone. Carry on.
Me:I hate you.
W.S.:You certainly do not. Carry on with the Ceciledebacle.
Me:Ugh. Ok. So, the problem here is Cecile hasn’t agreed to be exclusive with Tobias. But Tobias can’t give her up either. Jordan’s schedule allows him to be in Europe more often than Tobias, and Cecile told me that’s driving Tobias insane, but he knows he can’t “complain” because she has been very open and honest about where she stands with her feelings.
W.S.:I do have to say I’ve never seen Tobias so smitten with anyone like this.
Me:I agree. And Cecile admitted to having feelings for both of them the last time I talked to her. It’s not just a superficial attraction. She’s falling in love with Jordan AND Tobias. Those were her exact words.
W.S.:Shit.
Me:Yup.
W.S.:So what now?
Me:I don’t see Cecile choosing one of them anytime soon. Tobias will have to give her up or learn how to share her with Jordan. Meanwhile, Jordan is more open-minded and has expressed a desire to openly share her at the same time, if you know what I mean. But Cecile knows it wouldn’t solve anything nor would it end well in the long run.
W.S.:I don’t know what you mean. Can you explain how that works, please?
Me:Ha. Ha. You’re the threesome expert. You tell me.
W.S.:I’ve told you plenty of times I don’t share, but you are too stubborn to listen. I’ll always want you all to myself.
