“She’s just nervous to get close to us,” the other twinsays.

They grin at me, and suddenly I rise to the challenge. “Okay then,” I say. “You two think you can handle me? Let’s see what yougot.”

They both grin, and the two other guyslaugh.

“Good luck,” Ryan says as I’m whisked away by Caleb andWyatt.

The dance floor is packed and I’m feeling pleasantly buzzed from my glass of wine. I’m pulled up tight against one of the twins, and I can’t tell them apart at this point, even though they’re dressed differently. He pulls me close and suddenly I feel another man behind me, grinding against my ass, and I realize we’re all going to be dancing like thistogether.

It’s exciting, a little strange, and totally new to me. I wonder for a second where Maggie is, and why I haven’t seen James yet, but I don’t care. I’m dancing with two gorgeous twins, handsome and older than me, grinding against one with my groin and pushing against one in the back. For a second, I can’t help but wonder if they do more than just dancetogether.

We move like that for a few songs, and at one point I grab a glass of champagne from a passing waiter. I throw it back and the twins both laugh, pulling me tight, moving against me in sensual rhythms. I lean back against the twin behind me, hand on his face, as the other one moves up against my front. I realize suddenly that I’m dripping wet with excitement and sweating from the exertion. I glance off the dance floor and I spot Henry and Ryan, both of them watching us, which only sends another thrill down myspine.

I don’t understand it, but these men are all hitting on me. Maybe it has something to do with James, or maybe they’re just into this weird sharing thing. I’ve heard of people like that, a bunch of men sharing a single woman, and I always thought it was strange… but now, with one twin at my front and another at my back, I don’t find it strange atall.

We dance to one song after another, and I don’t know how much time passes. I’m tired and excited and spinning with pleasure, when the twin at my front suddenly cups my jaw, moving my face towardhim.

I kiss him without hesitation. He tastes good, salty and clean like grass. When we break off the kiss, the other twin tilts my head back and kisses me, and I don’t question it. I don’t let myself questionit.

They kiss me like that, one after the other, as the songs keep playing. Finally though, I feel dizzy with excitement, and I have to break itoff.

“I have to go,” I say lamely, and hurry away from them, heart beating so fast I can hearit.

What the hell was that back there? I’ve never done anything like that before. It was like I was under a spell or something, and for a brief second it felt totally normal to grind up on two older man and kiss both of them. Maybe it has something to do with them being twins, but I can’t besure.

I get a drink at the bar and throw it back, needing something cool. As I’m standing there, getting myself together, Maggie appearsnearby.

“There you are!” she says, looking exasperated. “I’ve been looking for you allover.”

“Oh, I was, uh, I was dancing,” Isay.

“Listen, I have to get going. I have an early shift tomorrow, and it’s like already one in themorning.”

I gape at her. One in the morning? “I’ve been dancing for thatlong?”

She shrugs and grins. “Apparently. I had a good time, by the way, no thanks toyou.”

I smile a little weakly. “Sorry aboutthat.”

“Don’t be. I would have ditched you in a second for that guy, don’t worry. Anyway, you coming or do you want to find your ownride?”

I glance back at the dance floor and for a second I want to stay, but I just nod. “I’mcoming.”

I follow Maggie back out of the shop. I don’t say goodbye to the guys, I just can’t bring myself to do it, but I swear I can feel their eyes onme.

And I like it. I feel insane, like I’m losing myself, but I know they all want me… and the thought drives meinsane.

Ipull up to a small shack of a building on the outskirts of the mountains. There’s a pretty big parking lot, and trails snake their way up through the forest all around the building. Smaller outbuildings to the left and the right form storage sheds, probably for the ATVsthemselves.

I kill the engine of my Triumph and step off. I take a breath, surprising myself. I actually feel nervous for the first time in a long, long time. I didn’t expect to really get into this stupid game of ours, since we’re always doing dumb shit like this. I can’t count how many absurd games the five of us have played together over the years, and although someone always gets hurt, it’s rarely one ofus.

But this girl… she’s different. Maybe that’s a cliché, maybe she’s the same as everyone else and I’m just different, but this feeling is new. Or maybe not new, but unexpected and nice in all the rightways.

Watching the twins dance with her like that, kiss her like that, it made me jealous, but it also made me weirdly… excited. I’ve seen the twins do that before to other girls, overwhelm them, push them to their limit, but I’ve never really been into it before. I always figured, that’s just the twins, doing theirthings.
