She hadn’t known that. Way to go, Jamie.
There’s a bottomless pit where my stomach used to be.
“Reginald asked me to review your scholarship application,” Wesley says, jumping in and saving me. “The committee was split right down the middle for the full scholarship and he was the final vote. He wanted my opinion as to whether you’d be a good fit for the full tuition award.
“As soon as I saw the photos of your work, I had no clue why he even needed my opinion. When I pressed him on it…” He trails off, fidgeting guiltily.
“What did he say?”
“Can we just leave it at he was being elitist and sexist?” Wesley pleads.
She nods woodenly.
After a moment, she asks, “Can I be expelled or stripped of my scholarship if word gets out about what happened?”
“We checked into it. There’s no morality clause for the students and no specific rules about it in the handbook,” Wesley answers. “Even if they tried something, we’re all willing to go to bat for you.”
Her cheeks flush, and I don’t think I’ve seen anything more attractive.
“I don’t know what to say.”
“Say you’ll keep seeing us.”
“Us? As in all three of you? At the same time?”
“Like I told you before, we’re good at sharing.” Phillip shrugs.
“Why would any of you want to risk your position like that?”
“Bold of you to assume we’ll get discovered.” Wesley grins. “We’re very good at being discreet.”
“But I’m?—”
“Attractive, charming, talented, and an all around lovely person?” Phillip asks.
“If I say yes, how would this all work?”
“You’d be in charge of everything that happens,” I say. “We won’t do anything you’re not okay with. You’ll have a safe word. We’ll make sure to communicate like this regularly.
“I know it didn’t seem like it earlier this morning, but we do value open and honest communication. Any time one of us has an issue or an odd feeling or anything to say, really, we’ll get together and talk. I’m sorry if we didn’t make the best impression at first, but we are better than that. You have my word.”
“What about…” She swallows hard. “What about intimate moments?”
“If you’re okay with it, the three of us are very skilled at making a woman feel special. It’s okay if that’s something you need to work up to or don’t want to do.”
Her eyes travel across the three of us. “So we would all be in bed together.”
If I’m not mistaken, there’s a glimmer of excitement in her eyes.
“Yes.”
“So if things start to get intimate and it’s only two of us, we’d have to wait until everyone is there?” she asks.
“Absolutely not.” Phillip shakes his head. “Things happen. We’re not always going to be all together, all the time. It’s inevitable that not everyone is going to be there every time things get intimate. No one is going to get jealous. You’re dating all three of us—or you will be if you want to. Both our relationship as a unit and our individual relationships with each other need to be cultivated.”
“And if there is any jealousy, we’ll sit down together and talk it out,” I say. “Whether this is something that only lasts a few weeks or becomes something more permanent, we need to be up front with how we’re feeling. What happened this morning compounds the importance of that.”
“So, would you like to start seeing us?” Wesley asks hopefully.
