hand.
Shooting a bemused look at Alex, he asked him softly, “Now what?”
“Let’s put her to bed,” Alex suggested, standing up and grabbing the massage oil along with Maggie’s bikini top, leaving Jess to scoop her up in his arms and walk upstairs with her while Alex picked the towel up from the floor and scooted the coffee table back into place.
But when he got to the top of the curved staircase, with Alex one step behind him, and would have turned left toward her room, Alex stopped him by placing his hand on his shoulder. “Put her in our bed,” Alex said softly to him.
Laying her gently down on their bed after Alex had pulled back the covers, Jess covered her with the sheet. “I’m going to run back downstairs and put together a plate of food for her in case she wakes up, since we seem to have skipped dinner for some reason,” he said with a grin. “Then I’m going to meet you in the shower,” he added meaningfully.
Liking that plan immensely, Jess made sure that Maggie was situated comfortably in the middle of their bed before he pulled his T-shirt off and stepped out of his jeans as he went to wait for Alex in the shower.
Chapter 8
Maggie had awakened briefly to find herself alone in bed with a plate of sandwiches lying beside her and bottled water on the bedside table. Scarfing down a couple of sandwiches and drinking half the water, she lay back down and closed her eyes for a moment.
The next time she opened them, daylight had brightened the room, and she found herself facing Jess, who was fast asleep with one hand resting possessively on her hip while one of his legs was tucked high between her thighs.
She tried to gently roll away from him so as not to disturb his sleep, but her back immediately came into contact with a steely chest. Glancing over her shoulder, she saw Alex lying there with his mouth pressed to her shoulder in an openmouthed kiss while one hand grasped her breast, and his cock pressed against her bottom. Raising his head and smiling at her, he pressed a chaste kiss on her lips before whispering, “Good morning.”
Maggie sighed as he gave her breast a squeeze before he thrust his hips forward and languidly ground himself against her. “I’ve dreamt of waking up with you like this,” he confessed as he nibbled on her earlobe.
“So have I,” she admitted in a whisper as she tried to capture his lips for a real good-morning kiss.
“Sorry, I’ve got morning breath,” Alex admitted , pulling his head back as he gave her breast another squeeze before he rolled away from her while Maggie bit back a whimper of disappointment. “You can use our shower if you want,” he offered.
“That’s okay. All my toiletries and toothbrush are in mine.”
“We’ll have to see about rectifying that. Now, don’t go before you wake up Jesse. He’ll be seriously cranky if he doesn’t get to kiss you good morning also or cop a feel like I did.” Alex grinned at her.
Grinning back at him, Maggie turned back toward Jess and kissed him softly on the lips before she licked their crease. “Good morning,” she breathed softly to him.
“I must be dreaming,” Jess mused huskily as he squeezed her hip in his hand.
“No dream, sweetie. But I need to be getting up so I can shower and brush my teeth before heading to class.”
“Any chance we can talk you into showering with us?” he asked hopefully.
“I really don’t think we’re at the showering-together stage in our relationship yet,” Alex interjected drily from where he was now standing at the base of the bed, wearing nothing but a pair of plaid pajama bottoms.
“Sometimes you have to say the hell with what’s right and just go with your gut,” Jess responded.
“And that’s usually when your gut causes you to royally fuck things up. So finish copping your feel so Maggie can get ready for class,” Alex snapped.
“You are such a buzz kill,” Jess griped as he gathered an amused Maggie into his arms and ground
