Deal Makers (Dealing with Love 3)

I hold my hands up. “I’m not the one on the chopping block here, remember?”

She rolls her eyes. “Well, consider it me trying to get to know my new friend better.”

“Fine,” I concede. “More than two.”

She frowns. “That’s cheating!”

I shrug. “It was still an answer.”

Rainey laughs. “Next question. What’s your favorite position?”

Now Devyn’s entire face and neck are red. This girl is so damn cute with how easily flustered she gets. “If I answer that, you have to share, too.”

“Doggy,” Rainey replies flippantly. “Now you.”

“Really?” Devyn asks incredulously.

Rainey grins. “It’s a good angle.”

“Not doggy-style.” Devyn quips, as if she’s pulled one over on us.

I raise my eyebrows. “So it’s going to be like that, huh? Here’s one for you: Have you ever had anal?”

“No way! Exit only!” Devyn’s eyes widen comically when Rainey and I remain silent. “Wait a minute...you guys have?”

“It’s fun every once in a while,” Rainey offers with a shrug.

“Charlee?” Devyn squeaks.

I nod toward Rainey. “What she said.”

Devyn slams her hand on the table. “Lorraine, why didn’t I know about this before now?”

Rainey laughs. “Oh honey, I love you, but it’s not like anal is something that would ever get brought up between us before now. And besides, it’s a recent development. Brody’s the only man I’ve let shove it up my ass.”

I make a barfing gesture. “I’m gonna pretend I didn’t hear that.”

Devyn laughs. “Ha! Not so fun now, is it, Charlotte?”

“Hey, Devyn, have I mentioned how badly I want to ride your brother off into the sunset?”

“First of all...ick,” she says. “But secondly, I think you two would actually make a really cute couple.”

Rainey laughs. “Yeah, if Brody didn’t kill him first.”

Okay, I know the point of this game was to embarrass Devyn, but now that we’re on the subject, I’m going to take advantage of it. I’ll admit; I was pretty pissed a few months ago when Drew so casually threw me away after the hottest kiss of my life. But when I had a chance to cool down and really pay attention to how solid his friendship with my brother is, I get it. I still think they’re both being stupid, but I understand why he’s being so cautious.

I clear my throat. “Do you really think Brody would be that pissed? I mean, surely he’s gotten over it by now.”

Rainey gives me an are you stupid? look. “Uh...were you there when he caught you two making out?”

“What?” Devyn slams her hand down even more forcefully, almost making my glass topple over. “When did this happen? And why didn’t I know about that either?”

“Oops,” Rainey says apologetically.

The waitress is back with our refills so I wait until she leaves before replying. “At your engagement party. Drew and I got to talking and talking led to kissing and kissing led to a little rubbing which is right around the time when Brody walked in on the whole thing.”

Devyn gasps. “Holy crap! So Brody freaked out, huh?”
