Chapter 13
Anthony stood at the foot of the bed staring at the two women in his life. They were completely naked and wrapped around each other like beautiful flowering vines. A part of him just wanted to stand there and watch them… it was the first time he’d seen them together like this. That was one of their deals. They had their alone time together, and he and Rory had their alone time. At least until Christine warmed up to this arrangement. He couldn’t lie to himself… a small part of him was attracted to Christine. Hell – she was beautiful. And he saw how much she loved Rory, which only turned him on more. But he wouldn’t push anything physical with her. It would have to be on Rory and Christine’s terms if that were to ever happen.
He knew he couldn’t stand there forever. Rory would kill him for letting her sleep through her parent's dinner. She’d called him and explained that they were going to tell her parents about the relationship between her, Christine and him. After the Constable had taken the news so well, Rory felt like it was time to come clean and tell her parents.
“Rory,” Anthony whispered, shaking her leg, “Baby… you need to get up.”
Rory’s eyelids fluttered, “Shit!” She sat up suddenly, startling Christine awake.
“What the fuck…” Christine glanced around, shaking the sleep from her head.
“Anthony,” Rory questioned, “What are you doing in here?”
“When you didn’t answer the door or your phone, I came in to wake you. It’s nearly dinner time with your parents.”
“Crap… Christine, we have to get up.” Rory slapped at her leg, “we’re going to be late.”
Christine smiled, “Ok… I’m moving.”
“I’ll leave you two to get dressed.” Anthony turned to leave, but Rory grabbed him.
“No… you can wait in here – can’t he, Christine?”
Christine stood, naked as the day she was born and walked toward Anthony. “Yes… I’m getting used to the idea of you being here.” Bumping him with her body, she brushed passed him.
“What just happened?” Anthony watched as she disappeared into the closet.
“I think she’s growing on the idea of you being in here when… you know.” Rory smiled and pressed her body against him, “I really want to fuck you right now… but I don’t want to be late.”
“You minx.” Anthony kissed her, slapping her on the ass, “Later…Go get dressed, or we won’t get out of here.”
Anthony smiled as Rory ran to the closet. Thirty minutes later, both girls were dressed in casual summer dresses.
Holding out an elbow to each woman, “May I escort you two ladies to dinner?”
“Of course,” Rory smiled.
“It’s pretty nice having arm candy… I can see why you like having him around, Rory.” Christine laughed. Anthony guided them from the room and into the hallway.
“Are you sure you’re ready to do this, Rory? Once you let this secret out… there’s no going back.”
“Anthony, I love you both. And I am tired of hiding who I am.”
“Alright then, we’ve got your back.”
Anthony pushed open the door to the dining room and ushered the two women inside. Rory’s parents were seated at the far end, her father looking frail and near death.
“Mother,” Rory nodded at her mother, “Father, it’s good to see you out and about.”
“Rory…” her mother, Rachel, glanced toward Christine, “I didn’t know you were bringing Ms. Fitzgerald with you. I thought this was going to be a private dinner to discuss your wedding.”
“That’s why she is here,” Rory glanced tentatively at Christine and smiled.
“Oh, is she helping with the preparations?”
“No. Christine’s going to be part of the wedding.”Just rip the band-aid off, Rory thought to herself.
“Part of the wedding?” Rachel looked confused, “But you said you didn’t want any wedding members.”
