voice faded on his answer as he moved farther away.
“Don’t worry, Baby Girl,” Jake said, sticking his head in and giving me a sweeping once over. “We won’t let you fall. And you look fantastic in heels.”
“She looks fantastic in everything,” Archie said as he passed behind him.
“And nothing,” Coop yelled from somewhere, and I stared up at the ceiling before ducking back under the water. It was a little nuts to be having this conversation like this.
When I shut off the water, I found Ian waiting for me with an oversized towel. I stepped right into it, and he wrapped it around me.
“I’m okay, you know,” I told him, and he pressed a kiss to the tip of my nose.
“I still want to look after you, you know.” He tugged me into a full hug and didn’t seem to care that I was still soaking wet.
Eyes closed, I leaned into the contact. They’d all been cuddling close all day. While not quite hovering, one of them was either holding my hand or had an arm around me or one hand on my knee. I had no idea how they were working out the transitions from one to the other, but they’d all been handing me off so smoothly, it seemed coordinated.
Ian brushed a kiss to each of my closed eyelids as he wrapped the towel a little tighter and tucked a corner between my breasts. He nudged me toward the toilet, and I sat on the closed lid as he worked a towel gently against my wet hair.
I glanced up to find Coop watching us with an indulgent smile, and he winked. “Want something to drink? We were debating coffee.”
“Hmm…” I was tired and we were apparently getting dressed up to go out, so… “Coffee, please.”
“On it.”
Ian chuckled and then took his time toweling me off and being very thorough to the point he left me panting a little. When I squirmed, he slid his fingers right down the seam of my labia and raised his brows. “Hurting, Angel?”
“Wanting,” I said, through little gasps. “But I can be good.”
His sudden smile warmed me, and then he slid two fingers into me and curved them, even as he pressed his thumb down. I hadn’t even realized how on edge I was until I came, and I clung to him as he pulled a second orgasm out of me right on the heels of the first.
Lips against my ear, he whispered, “Told you I liked taking care of you.”
Laughter swelled out of me as he pressed a kiss behind my ear.
“Now finish drying your hair and get dressed. We have plans.”
Before I could prompt him for more, he surrendered his spot to Jake, who came bearing coffee and a wide grin. I should probably be blushing from my head to my toes, but the flush of warmth cascading through me had everything to do with being loved.
After a very thorough kiss—payment for my coffee apparently—Jake passed over my cup and then settled in while I dried my hair.
“Up or down?” I asked him.
“Down,” came three answers from beyond the bathroom.
“Thank you, Jake,” Jake answered them. “I’m so glad you could answer my question without the peanut gallery.”
“You’re standing in here with her naked and you want her hair up?” Archie asked from the doorway, even as I laughed.
“Well,” Jake mused, “she would raise her arms—can you show him for me, Baby Girl?” There was no mistaking that twinkle in his eyes as I gathered up my hair and lifted it with both hands. “Right there,” he said as I had my arms up and my chest forward.
“I see what you mean,” Archie said slowly, and I snorted.
“And it’s staying down,” I said, dropping it and shaking the length out. “Especially since you’re not telling me where we’re going.”
“We’re going to have fun.” Archie hooked an arm around me and dragged me forward for a kiss. “Trust me?” he murmured against my lips. “Trust us?”
How did one argue against that?
I’d never been so grateful for the earlier orgasms Ian had given me, because Jake and Archie were both very helpful as I headed for the bedroom. “I can get dressed on my own. I’m sure you’ve picked out the panties and everything. Now shoo.”
“Aww.” Archie mock pouted at me, but Jake just laughed as I shut the bedroom door. I turned and collided with Coop, who pinned me to the door, one thigh right between my legs as his mouth locked over
