Austin was a little more jacked, and Trevor was a little leaner, but she wouldn’t have kicked either of them out of bed. For just a moment, she let her eyes wander over the thick, rippling muscles that covered their bodies, turning her head from one side to the other. She tried to check them out casually, even though she was pretty sure it wasn’t working.

Do they even know how hot they are?She wondered. They should be posing for romance novel covers somewhere, instead of going on a hike with some girl.

She didn’t mind the path they’d chosen.

As she was trying to check Trevor out while also being subtle, she heard the sound of metal on rock behind her, and turned to see Austin’s pants hit the ground. He stood there, grinning, his thumbs under the waistband of his boxer briefs.

“Excuse me, some privacy please?” he said.

Sloane turned bright red and clapped her hands over her eyes. On the other side, she heard Trevor’s pants hit the ground as well. Despite herself, she turned her head ever so slightly, trying to sneak a look through her fingers.

“No peeking,” came Trevor’s slightly raspy voice.

Sloane slid her fingers shut.

This is so unfair, she thought, even though she didn’t know what, exactly, was unfair. She wasn’t naked. They weren’t getting an eyeful of anything besides her feet, which she didn’t exactly consider her best or sexiest feature.

“On three,” Trevor said.

“What am I doing,” muttered Austin.

“One, two...”

“Three!” shouted Sloane, taking her fingers off her eyes.

She was in time to see both of them jump off the rock and into the water, their tight, perky butts and the hard muscles of their backs. Both went under and then came up roaring.

“Oh!”

“Ahh!”

“That is COLD!”

“Holy SHIT that is cold!”

Trevor shook himself hard, spraying tiny droplets over to Sloane, who turned her face away.

“What, too cold for you?”

Austin turned to Trevor.

“Wasn’t this her idea?” he asked.

“I think it was,” said Trevor.

“There’s only one fair thing to do,” Austin said.

He advanced a couple of steps into shallower water, until his bellybutton was visible in the air. Trevor followed.

Sloane’s mouth went dry.

They’re both flirting with me now, she thought.

She’d suspected before, but now she was positive. Well, almost positive. She still wasn’t sure why they were bothering, or what their end game was. After all, she would only...

The answer hit her, and Sloane blinked.

Just as she did, Trevor casually put one hand on Austin’s shoulder and leaned, ever so slightly, into the other man.
