“You know I assumed when you guys left, Quentin would probably drop you off later. I figured after that brawl, he would be too upset to even think about being in a relationship with you. But I should’ve known better the second that man slipped you to his side and bucked up to Jonathon.”

Eden shivered. “I’ve got to admit, girl. That man wants you bad.”

“Because he stood up to Jonathon?”

“Hell yeah,” Eden said matter of factly. “Don’t forget, dear sister, there were four of our brothers there, and they’re notorious for starting a fight they can finish. Besides being celebrity playboys, they can whoop some ass. Jonathon went straight for Quentin and didn’t break him. And Quentin,” Eden kissed the tips of her fingers, “that brother was willing to go through them all for you. Realistically, all he had to do was give in and say he wouldn’t date you. Oh but no, that was obviously not an option as he squared them rock hard shoulders.” Eden shivered again. “I hope Derek stands up to them like that. I’d drop my panties for him, too.”

Phoebe threw her head back and let out a pitching laugh while Eden nodded.

“That’s how it happened, isn’t it? Tell the truth. You were so turned on, you just fell on top of it like this.” Eden sank to the ground going into a split just as the elevator opened on their floor.

Phoebe’s laughter kicked up, and Eden made her butt bounce in a floor twerk.

“Girl!” Phoebe said with the brightest beam on her face. She reached down. “Get up off of that floor!”

Eden reached for her hand and slid to her feet as Phoebe pulled her upright. She shrugged. “I’m just saying.”

“I cannot deal with you today. I’ve got to get to the office.” Phoebe continued to laugh while moving out of the elevator to their condo.

Eden closed in on her. “I don’t really want to know the specifics anyway,” she said as Phoebe took her key out. “The door’s unlocked. I was in a rush to be nosey when I saw Quentin’s car pull out front.”

Phoebe shook her head and strolled inside with her sister on her heels. “But like I was saying, I don’t need specifics, just tell me it was fabulous and how many times y’all did it, and I’ll leave you alone.”

“Oh my goodness, girl,” Phoebe smized, pursing her lips.

Eden waited with anticipation. “Well?”

“Twice, okay.”

Eden squealed and clapped her hands spiritedly. Phoebe giggled.

“And we never made it to the bed.”

Eden’s eyes popped, and her mouth dropped. “Shut up!” She shoved Phoebe and Phoebe laughed.

“And…” she continued as Eden looked on, “If he popped my cherry the first time, I didn’t know, but when we were in the shower…”

Eden gasped. “Ew! And Oh my God!”

Phoebe nodded. “That’s what I said. I was embarrassed at first, but it happens to all virgins I suppose.”

“But why wouldn’t you have known it the first time?” Eden questioned with her nose drawn up.

“Well when we left the wall, we kind of stayed connected all the way to the bedroom. We fell asleep like that, so it wasn’t something we checked for right away. I guess we should have.”

“Too late for that now!” Eden added.

“True,” Phoebe countered.

“Wait, the wall!”

Phoebe giggled and strolled away with a sway in her hips to get ready for her day, while Eden stood staring after her.
