All of this combines to make me want to pull back a little. I haven’t felt invested in a woman in longer than I can remember. I want to know how her day was, how her various dress projects are coming along, how many orders she got this week, what she had for lunch, for fuck’s sake.

That is too much.

So it’s a good thing that Aiden and Simon are part of this. I need to pull back.

“Simon’s place is great,” I say. The fewer memories we make in my apartment, the better. Then they won’t haunt me when this is over.

“Great.” She pulls her phone out and sends a quick message.

Her phone pings a couple seconds later.

She smiles at me. “They’ll meet us there.”

“Did they bring you to the arena?” I ask as I guide her to my truck in the players’ parking lot.

She shakes her head. “I got an Uber. I figured since I’m seeing three guys, the chances of having a ride home after the game were pretty good.”

I help her up into the passenger seat of my truck, then impulsively lean in to kiss her lips. “Thanks for coming tonight.”

She looks surprised and I brace myself for her to remind me that it was part of our deal.

But, instead, she says, “I loved it.”

“You look really fucking good in my jersey.”

She grins. “Let me guess. That means I’m keeping it on in bed later?”

“It does,” I confirm.

Two nights ago, Aidan brought her a Chicago Fire Department T-shirt, which he insisted she wear while we fucked her.

I’ve been dreaming of getting him back with this jersey.

Which I know he knows.

Which makes it even more fun.

Dammit, I like those guys too.

Great.

“By the way,” I tell her. “When Aidan’s fucking you, you have to be on hands and knees.”

She looks very interested. She is always ready to go for all three of us and we can’t get enough. “And why is that?” she asks.

“So he has to stare at my name and number the entire time.”

I shut the door while she’s still laughing. I’m also grinning as I get in. I barely even wince as my hip twinges.

Then I take us to my girlfriend's other boyfriend’s apartment.

CHAPTER 23

Aidan

For two fucking weeks I’ve been dancing around what is happening between me and Simon.

Which emotionally, is a lot. I’m falling hard for him and trying not to.
