you and let you...share me," Tatum said, seeming embarrassed about the idea of that though not flinching away from it either. "Then I want you all to swear that you only belong to me too. I'm not going to be used as some plaything for the four of you only to have to watch you fucking other girls."
"Done," I agreed without thought because I didn't want any other girl anyway. I was happy enough to admit that my obsession with her had gone that far because I was fairly certain it was obvious regardless.
Kyan and Blake agreed quickly too and we all looked at Monroe as he shifted uncomfortably in his seat.
"Just agree, asshole, it’s not like there's any other pussy you're chasing anyway, and we’re stuck in lockdown here for fuck knows how long, so what difference does it make?" Kyan pushed him and Monroe rolled his eyes but nodded all the same. I didn’t miss the blush that coated Tatum's cheeks as we all agreed to that or the smug ass look on her face. But I had to wonder if she had truly considered what she was getting by taking on four tortured souls like us. Either way it was agreed so I wrote it down.
I took a breath and pulled out the laminated set of rules that we’d laid out months ago, laying it on the table where everyone could see it. The first one was struck out, but at least I’d managed to preserve the rest up until now.
1. No Kissing
2. No foreplay
3. No sex
4. No touching while we share a bed
5. No entering the bathroom while I'm naked or on the toilet
6. I am allowed two hours of undisturbed study time at the library on every weekday
7. I am allowed one friend who you can not be a dick to
8. Once a week we will ALL eat pizza for dinner without cutlery
9. I am allowed to sit wherever I want in classes
The rules I’d laid out were beneath them too:
1. You will sleep in a Night Keeper's bed every night on rotation and they will have priority over you for 24 hours (6pm-6pm the next day).
2. You must cook breakfast for us every day.
3. You will wear whatever we decide on the day you are in our possession.
4. You will do as we say without complaint unless it conflicts with your rules.
"As for the rest of the rules, I think we need to have a fresh look at the no sex, foreplay and no touching in bed rules as some members of the group have been repeatedly flouting them and I am personally sick of being the only fucking person here who seems to give a shit about them,” I said seriously while Blake and Kyan high fived each other like dickheads.
"Scrap them," Tatum said without hesitation. "I'm not agreeing to any of you ordering me to have sex with you or anything like that. But if I want to then I don't want it to be off the table."
I fought to keep my composure as she suggested that, my brow furrowing as I wondered if it really might have anything to do with me or if she was just sick of feeling like she was breaking the rules whenever she was with Kyan or Blake. Either way, removing this rule would be good for me. I wouldn't have to deal with the constant rule breaks and I could just focus on all of the projects I was working to complete in my own time without being haunted by it.
The others all agreed without me saying anything and my jaw locked as I looked down the original list of rules.
"Are there any new rules which anyone might like to impose or any other rules which need to be amended?" I asked in a flat tone as I kept my gaze on the page.
"Get rid of the one about entering the bathroom while she's naked too," Blake said, offering Tatum a dirty grin across the table and my grip on my pen tightened as I realised that left us with only four out of her nine original rules.
Kyan and Tatum agreed to that and I fought down the urge to freak out about this casual disbandment of an entire way of life. I had wanted to challenge the pizza night issue but if we dropped down to only three rules from her original list, I was fairly certain I was going to have a heart
