“Did you ever put a finger up Lance’s?” Lucy cocks her head behind her in explanation.
“No. We don’t all have a day of the week dedicated to our assholes.”
I sit smiling as I listen to them, not realising how desperately I needed to get out of the house and office this week.
I knew quitting at the club would take some getting used to, but I had Charles. After everything that’s unfolded since, I’ve secretly missed the social side of working in the evenings. Especially Christian and Iona—although I still hear from them.
“I don’t have a dedicated day,” Lucy retorts. “That’s this little slut.” She points at Nina.
“What?” I ask, chuckling.
“Anal Tuesdays,” Scarlet tells me. “I’d say that it’s too much information, but I think we’re past that by now.” She smiles sarcastically at her two friends. “Nina once walked in here one Wednesday morning barely able to sit down. She did it sober and with no lube on this random Tuesday night.”
My eyes widen. “No lube?”
“Iconic,” Lucy snorts, cackling.
“We had lubricant of a sort, thank you.”
“Oh, for god’s sake, that’s too far.” Scarlet tuts, Lucy’s laughter turning silent.
“Sorry,” Nina tells me. “Definitely too much information.”
“Maybe a little,” I tell her, my smile wide and aching.
Lucy waves her hand in front of her. “Sorry. That’s just fully got me.”
“You’d think they’d be over it by now,” Nina tells me. “Especially as fully fledged members themselves,” she grits out, smacking Lucy’s arm.
I’d tell them how much Charles enjoys a finger in his ass, but when I say I don’t want to share my man, I mean it.
Lucy calms down enough to speak. “Oh, I’ve not laughed like that in months. I missed you girls when we were away.”
I look between them, finding them all smiling without really knowing it.
Even Scarlet.
“I hate that Megan isn’t here with us. It’s still weird having her gone,” says Nina.
“She’s happy, though,” Scarlet says. “I don’t think we knew just how unhappy she was before she left.”
“No,” Lucy adds. “I don’t think we did.”
“She seems like an incredible person,” I tell them, not really knowing the girl well enough to offer anything else.
“She’s the funniest, sweetest, most selfless human you’ll ever meet. She just wants a good time,” Nina tells me. “She loved meeting you at the wedding.”
“Oh my gosh, I forgot.” I laugh. “Charlie saw that video of you two.”
Nina frowns and then covers her mouth as realisation sets in. “Megs didn’t delete it?”
“No. It was actually a really sweet video.”
“What was it of?” Scar asks.
“It was Megan and Nina talking about Charlie and me at the wedding.” I smile at Nina.
Scarlet’s eyes go wide. “Nothing bad?”
