“And this…” I nestled myself between Cade’s legs and sucked his nearly hard penis into my mouth.
“Well, I’d be happy just to have those little fingers wrapped around my cock while the hippie fucks your mouth, Tina,” Jamie said with a dark smile.
Cade’s cock fell from my mouth with a wet pop.
“Sorry,” I said, shrugging, but with a naughty smile on my face. “But my hands are for Guy Number Three.” I stroked an imaginary penis next to me. Jamie crossed his arms, though I saw his dick still twitch at my hand job charades.
“You’ve got two hands the last time I checked, lassie,” he grumbled.
I moved my other hand to join the first around the invisible shaft. “He’s very big,” I said, winking.
“And who is this big-cocked third man?” Cade asked, stroking his dick slowly when I sat up and leaned against the side of the van.
I covered my face with my hands and groaned. “I have no idea,” I admitted. I was pretty much out of ideas at that point. I felt like I had tried all that I could try. And with the date to turn in the sex study application fast approaching, I feared I wouldn’t have a full roster, save some last minute miracle.
“What about your hot friend?” Jamie asked.
I dropped my hands from my face and gave him a look. “It has to be threemen, Jamie. Three men, one woman. I’m the woman. We need another guy.”
His eyes sparked. “I meant Ellis. He’sa guyis he not?”
My mind flashed back to the image of Ellis leaning against the wall in my hallway and the outline of his long, thick, hard cock clearly visible even through his jeans. Yes, there was no doubt about it: Ellis was aman.
I forced a laugh and tried to dismiss Jamie’s suggestion with a casual wave of my hand. “Yeah, that’s not going to happen.”
“Why not?”
“Because I don’tneedhim,” I said, my bitterness all too apparent.
“Excuse me?”
I shook my head. “Never mind. But Ellis is just a friend. He doesn’t want more.”
Jamie snorted in disbelief.
Cade pushed himself up onto his elbows and looked from me to Jamie and back to me. “How do youknowhe doesn’t want more?”
“Because we kissed! And he hated it. He pulled away, not just physically but emotionally as well. He told me how I didn’t need him anymore. Because I was New Tessa. I’d found you guys and he’s content for me to have you.”
Jamie snorted again, and I glared at him until he held up his hands.
“Lassie, he’s lying,” Jamie declared. “He wants you. He just doesn’t think you want him. After all, you didn’t ask him to do the sex study, did you?”
“Well no, but that’s because he…because he’sEllis,” I said, as if that explained everything.
Was Jamie right? Did Ellis want me, but was hurt that I hadn’t asked him to do the sex study? Did hereallybelieve I didn’t need him and was just pushing me away in order to avoid being hurt?
“He’s acting like an idiot and so are you,” Jamie expanded.
Uh, excuse me? I mean, I’d been wondering the same thing about myself but to hear those words coming from Jamie hurt.
“The two of you keep talking about this ‘New Tessa’ like you’re some brand new person. And that’s bullshit,” Jamie said.
“It isn’t,” I said, looking to Cade for support, even though I half knew I wouldn’t find it since the first day we’d made love had been the same day he’d said I was a bold Tessa all along, I just needed to let her out.
Sure, enough, Cade just smiled at me then said, “Tessa, we were never attracted to you because of who you were going to become. We were always attracted to you because of who you were, because of who you stillare.”
Cade’s hand moved to hold the back of my neck, thumb tracing circles over my cheekbone. “Hell, I wanted you the very first day I saw you getting onto an elliptical.”
