And it was enough.
More than enough.
Mason had an eleven-thirty class, so he offered to drive me. I hopped in the shower after breakfast and kissed Cole goodbye before we left, glancing back at the slightly messy living room as we headed out the door. A guitar was leaned up against the wall by the couch, and tab sheets were spread over the coffee table from something Elijah had been composing.
“He must be working on something new,” Mason murmured, tracking my gaze as he pulled the door shut behind us.
“Yup.” I grinned.
“Maybe we’ll have a dance party later.”
“Yup.”
He gifted me with an easy smile, threading his fingers through mine as we walked outside into the spring sunshine.
Usually when Elijah worked up a new song, the only way I could get him to play it for me was by agreeing to dance to it. Sometimes I danced my modified ballet steps, and sometimes the other guys and I just slow danced around the apartment.
Our place was small for a five-bedroom, but it never seemed claustrophobic. I’d felt like it was important for us each to have our own spaces though, at least for the first year or two, although more often than not one or more of the Princes slept in my bedroom.
I had worried a little about what people at our new school would think, but from day one, we had never tried to hide or justify our relationship.
This was who we were, what we had chosen, and in Finn’s words, anybody who didn’t like it could fuck right off.
By now, it didn’t feel strange at all to say I had four boyfriends. Our relationship had never exactly been conventional anyway. Most love stories don’t start out with hate.
And from the very beginning, this story had never been about me and any one of them.
It had always been about all of us.
A lost princess and four beautiful, damaged princes.
