“Just tell me,” she practically begged.
“This isn’t working,” Tanner began, and she’d embarrassed the hell out of herself by bursting into tears.
“Nice going, asshole,” Mitch said and pulled her to his chest.
“What?” Tanner looked shocked at her tears.
“I think you just made her think we didn’t want to see her anymore,” Dylan offered, reaching out to cup her cheek and lift her face to look at him. “Not true. We don’t ever want this to end.”
“What?” She shook her head, trying to clear the fear out. “What isn’t working then?”
“This going between houses all the time. Your apartment isn’t big enough for all of us at the same time, so we have to take turns, and it makes us all grouchy,” Mitch informed her.
“Especially the two left out.” Dylan wiggled his brows at her.
“What I’m trying to say,” Tanner began again.
“And doing a poor job of,” Mitch interrupted. “It’s amazing she ever agreed to dinner with you doing the asking.”
“Told you we shouldn’t have let him ask.” Dylan shook his head.
Tanner glared and Mandy laughed.
“What are you trying to say?” she prompted.
“We want you to move in with us,” Dylan answered first. “You can put your stuff wherever you want. Take over one of our rooms as your own if you want to or share all of them. You can do whatever you want. Change anything and everything. Just move in with us.”
“You want me to move in?” She couldn’t believe her ears. She’d wanted this since the first time she’d left. She just wanted to be with them. Always.
“Yes,” three voices answered her.
“We’ll figure it out and make it work,” Tanner promised.
“We need you,” Mitch vowed.
“We want you,” Dylan said.
They all three looked at each other and seemed to be having a silent conversation.
“What?” she demanded when they kept silent. There was something they weren’t telling her.
“I love you,” three voices said the three words every woman longed to hear from the man of her dreams.
More tears trickled down her cheeks. She wanted to pinch herself just to make sure she wasn’t asleep. But Mitch’s arms were solid as they held her close. Dylan’s touch was all too real when he leaned in to kiss her. Then Tanner was there, and she was cocooned by the three of them. It was real. Her dreams had been answered.
“I love you too.” She couldn’t hold the words back.
“She’s talking to me,” Dylan informed them.
“Nah, that was meant for me,” Mitch assured them.
“You two only wish she was talking to you,” Tanner stated.
Mandy had laughed. She had thought they might end up in a naked tangle on her living room floor.
Instead, Dylan had pulled back first. “I’ll start grabbing boxes.”
“I’ll help,” Mitch said, and they both headed to her door.
“Boxes?” She turned to ask Tanner as the other two left.
“We prepared just in case you agreed to move in. You did agree, right? I mean, you love us. We love you. It just makes sense to move in.”
She nodded and felt her heart tug at the look of relief on his face. “I’d love to move in with you guys.”
“We were really hoping you’d say that. So we came prepared to move as much of your stuff as we could today.”
“Today?”
“No time like the present,” Tanner answered with a grin. “Besides,” he pulled her into his arms. “Haven’t we waited long enough?”
“Yeah,” she agreed just before he took her under with his kiss.
“Hey, none of that unless we all get some.” Dylan’s voice interrupted them as he and Mitch walked back in with a huge stack of boxes.
“I’ve got the tape to use when we put them together. That way the bottoms won’t fall out.” Mitch held up a couple of rolls.
“Ready?” Tanner whispered the question by her ear.
“Oh, yes,” she’d assured him, all of them. And they’d set to work packing up her stuff. She wasn’t surprised they had her moved that day. When her men set their minds to something, nothing stood in their way. Her men. That’s what they were. All three of them. Hers.
* * * *
“Mandy!” Tanner’s yell interrupted her reminiscing and brought her back to the present.
“In here!” She couldn’t wait for the guys to see what she’d done. They were going to be mad she’d done it without their help, but that was just them. They were always trying to take care of her. This was something she had wanted to do for them. And it was way overdue.
“What the hell?” Mitch stood in the door, and she laughed at the look on his face. Oh yeah, it had been worth all the effort just to see that look.
“How did you do this?” Tanner asked as he joined them. “You didn’t move that by yourself.” He frowned at her, but she could see he was intrigued.
“I didn’t know they made beds that big.” Dylan appeared behind them.
“They don’t,” she admitted. “I put two king size beds together. Sorry Tanner, but yours is the biggest room in the house.”
He shrugged his shoulders as he walked over and felt along the beds. She knew he was looking for the place where the two mattresses met. If she’d done her job correctly, then he wouldn’t be able to tell.
“How did you do this?” His eyes met hers.
“And is it safe?” Dylan said, wiggling his eyebrows and making her giggle.
“It’s plenty safe for what you have in mind.” Dylan always thought about sex. She was more than used to that at this point.
“Only one thing to do,” Mitch said and reached down to tug his t-shirt over his head. She let her gaze run over his chest and abs. He looked so good. She’d never get enough of seeing their bodies. She was thankful they so obviously felt the same about her.
“What’s that?” She couldn’t prevent the question even though she knew the answer.
“We’ll just have to test it out,” Dylan replied, tugging his shirt over his head while he toed his shoes off.
“Christen it.” Tanner grinned while he joined in the stripping.
She stood there and watched, letting her eyes drink them in. She was the luckiest woman in the world and proof that dreams did come true.
“Hey, sexy.” Dylan ran his hands up her sides, taking her shirt with them. “You’re overdressed.”
“Ummmm,” she moaned her agreement. “That’s really bad of me.” She let her eyes drink in the sight they made, naked with cocks hard and ready to please her. “I should probably get a spanking for that.” She met Tanner’s eyes and loved the way his lids lowered, showing just how turned on her words made him.
“And cuffed,” Dylan added.
“And fucked,” Mitch said.
Oh yeah. Dreams did come true.
