Reagan glanced over at me.“How does that work anyway?”

I lifted an eyebrow, needing her to elaborate.

“That whole ménage thing.You know, two guys and one girl.”

Chuckling, I took a swallow of beer.“You got me.Not my thing.But as they say, the heart wants what it wants.”

“I guess so.”

I took a bite of my sandwich when Reagan took a bite of hers.We sat there in silence for a few minutes, eating our dinner and staring out into the twilight.

“Do you think people plan for that to happen?”Reagan asked.

“What?”I was lost.

“The threesome thing.Do you think people set out knowin’ that they want to be with two people?”

I shrugged.“Maybe.”

“I guess if someone likes men and women, they probably would, huh?”

Chuckling, I took a sip of my beer.“Best of both worlds, maybe.”

“But how does Amy end up with two men?”

I turned to look at Reagan.“Is that what you were out here doin’?Ponderin’ the wonders of the universe?”

Reagan chuckled.“I guess it is deep, huh?”

“Maybe you should read those books Amy reads.”

That seemed to catch Reagan’s attention.“What books?”

“Some romance shit,” I told her, opening my chips.“She mentioned some author… Can’t remember who.Anyway, I guess people write about that shit.”

“Really?”

The way she said that sounded oddly curious.

“You into that sort of thing?”I wasn’t sure I wanted to know the answer to that.

“God, no.One man would be more than enough for me.”

Especially if that man was me, I thought.

Thankfully, I managed to keep that inside my head.

Reagan

I was surprised to see Lynx pull up to my house before dark.However, I wasn’t even a little disappointed.

The man confused me in so many ways.

And oddly enough, before he had arrived, I'd been thinking about him.Wondering how today would’ve gone if I had accepted his invitation to the barbecue.It probably would’ve been a better day, that was for sure.

“So, what’d you do today?”he asked, his tone casual.

“I was supposed to go see my mother,” I admitted.
