"Please don't think differently of me. Please Keela."
I was so confused.
"Alec, are you gay?"
"What? No I'm not gay, why would I be with you if I was gay?"
I frowned. "You could be pretendin'."
"Keela, I'm not pretending with you. I swear I'm not."
I nodded my head. "So if you're not gay then what are you?"
Alec looked at me and said, "I'm bisexual."
Oh, God.
He liked the V and the D.
Now all those random sayings from his brothers about him being a bum boy and his job having variety, and his expert knowledge on giving head made sense!
"That's just greedy," I muttered.
Alec stared at me for a moment then laughed, he full on laughed. Hard.
"You have a gift, you can turn the most tense conversation into the funniest."
I lightly smiled. "I'm blessed."
Alec chuckled then kissed my forehead. "You aren't disgusted by me then?"
I gasped. "Disgusted because you like men and women? No, of course not. Is that why you didn't tell me, because you were worried I'd look at you differently?"
Alec shrugged. "When we met you didn't lead with telling me you were straight, so I didn't lead with telling you I'm bisexual. It shouldn't matter."
"It doesn't matter."
Alec smiled. "I'm glad you feel that way... Most people aren't so accepting but I'm going to be criticised for whatever I do, or whoever I do, so why should I give a shit? I am content and happy with who I am. No one else's opinion matters."
He was dead right.
"I don't care that you're bi... but I am worried."
Alec frowned. "Why?"
I hesitated.
"Kitten, why are you worried?"
Just spit it out!
"Do you go through a phase of which gender you prefer to be with more? What if you're in the vagina stage now, but the dick stage tomorrow and want a lad instead of me?"
Alec burst out laughing which I thought was rude.
"I'm serious."
Alec laughed harder.
"Alec!" I snapped and punched his arm.
He didn't flinch from my hit, but he did calm himself down enough to speak.
"Baby, I'm with you because I like you. Sure I'll think other men and women are attractive, but that doesn't mean I'm about to up and leave you for them. I mean, if you think some other guy was attractive would you leave me just to take a tumble with them?"
I shook my head. "No."
"Exactly, it works both ways. Even with bisexual people."
I nodded my head then shoved him when he smiled.
"Stop teasin' me, I didn't know."
Alec leaned his head down to mine and kissed my lips.
"You're ador-"
"I'll break you if you finish that sentence."
Alec laughed and kissed my mouth hard.
I pulled back from him and randomly asked, "How do you decide which gender you like in the moment? Do you flip a coin or somethin'?"
Alec snickered. "No, I just go to whoever I am attracted to the most."
"How do you decide though?"
"I do what the voices in my underwear tell me to do."
Wait, what?
"You mean the voices in your head?"
Alec smirked. "Yeah, the voices in my head."
I furrowed my eyebrows together and stared at him.
Why was he smirking at me?
He was confusing me.
Wait.
Voices in his underwear.
In his head.
The head in his underwear.
I gasped. "You dirty bastard!"
Alec burst out laughing and tried to kiss me again but I held off.
"Why are you kissin' me so much, perv?"
"Because you're perfect."
I rolled my eyes.
His standards for perfection were shockingly low.
"Okay, now that I know your sexuality has variety tell me about your variety, specifically Dante Evans."
Alec growled. "I don't want to talk about him."
Oh, he would talk.
"He is here and seems to think you're no longer an escort because of me so get to talkin'."
Alec grunted. "I used to double team certain clients with Dante... and sometimes when we were on our own, I would fuck him."
I swallowed.
"Was he your boyfriend?"
Alec shook his head. "No, I told you that you were my first-"
"First girlfriend, not first partner."
Alec grinned. "You're a smart little cookie, but either way, you're my first partner. Dante was - and I mean this - just a way to pass the time when my dick got hard."
I gasped. "Alec! That's not nice."
Alec chuckled. "Sorry, mom."
I shoved him. "I'm serious, you can't use people like that."
"He used me as much as I used him, baby."
I widened my eyes when a thought entered my head.
"Did he... um..."
"Did he what?" Alec asked curiously.
I flushed. "Nothin', never mind."
Alec's face was the picture of amusement.
"No, tell me."
"Fine," I muttered. "Did he ever fuck you?"
Alec raised his eyebrows. "No, I only ever fucked him. I’m a batter, not a catcher."
"Oh, I see."
I swallowed nervously then.
"Does that mean you will want to do that to me? Because I've never done that before, but I'll try it for you if you want."
Alec's face softened. "You know most girls would freak out or be jealous when their boyfriend reveals he is bisexual. You worry about if I want to fuck your ass or not, and tell me you'll try it if I want to."
He looked over every inch of my face.
"God, I'm a lucky bastard."
He took my face tightly in my hand and covered my mouth with his. I placed my hands on his biceps and squeezed them as I kissed him back. I got lost in his kiss, my mind clouding over with need for him.
I could kiss him forever.
"Get a room."
I jumped and pulled away from Alec only to spot a grinning Dante standing next to us.
Some privacy maybe?
"Go away, Dante."
Dante smiled to Alec. "That's no way to treat an old friend."
"Friend?" Alec growled. "We were never friends."
Dante sighed. "Are you mad because I'm here on a job or that you're aren't on the job with me?"
Say what?
"I'm giving you ten seconds to walk away," Alec growled.
"He's givin' you ten, but I'm givin' you five. Get lost or I'll put me foot up your arse."
It took me a second to realise what I said and who I said it to.
"And it'll be a studded boot I wear so it won't feel good," I clarified.
Dante burst out laughing and even Alec tried to hide a smile but failed.
"I see why you like her. Long legs and a smart mouth, you must be in Heaven."
Alec put his arm around me. "I am, now leave."
Dante grinned. "Until tomorrow."
Until tomorrow?
He turned and left so I turned to face Alec and asked, "What's tomorrow?"
Alec swallowed then shrugged. "Probably another dinner or party he will hound us at."
I chuckled. "I'll wear studded boots to keep him at bay."
Alec laughed then looked to our left when our names were called.
It was Everly waving us over to a large table.
"Damn," I muttered.
Alec nudged me forward until I started walking. "It won't be that bad."
You have no idea.
At the table was Everly, Micah, Krista, Koda, the Brennan sisters and their mother, Mrs. Bane, and a few other girls whom I've never met.
Alec was the only male.
I know everyone has met him but I didn't know what to say so I introduced him again.
"Everyone this is Alec, Alec this is everyone."
"Hey," he smiled.
"Heeeeey Alec," everyone chorused, smiling wide at Alec.
Was I invisible?
I sighed and nudged Alec to sit down on the only spare seat, I sat on his lap and wanted to smile when all the women at the table glared.
Even the married ones.
