A Bad Boy's Gift

Chapter 28

Just as I'm about to return to the kitchen, there's a knock on the toilet door.

"I'm coming, one second." I wash my hands.

"Again? Christ, you are busy!" I hear Jen's voice from the other side of the door.

I open it quickly, a cheeky smirk on her face. "Huh?"

"You came once already tonight, don't be greedy."

"How do you know?" I question her, how does she know? Surely Archer hasn't told her point blank.

"You weren't very quiet." She puts her arm around my shoulders, guiding me toward the kitchen.

"Excuse me!" I plant my feet. "How do you know?" I press, wanting a better answer.

"Well, we got back and heard you two... Yano, so I stuck my head around the kitchen door and I couldn't see his head, the next time I stuck my head around the door, he was slamming himself into you." She smirks, "You two should try out for porn." She winks at me.

Oh my god! My two friends just watched me have sex!

I can feel the horror on my face as we walk into the kitchen.

"What's wrong, Riv?" Archer asks, putting the pizza delivery menu down so he can give me his undivided attention.

"They saw us," I look at him.

"Oh, yeah, Benjamin just told me." He rolls his eyes, "Don't worry, he said it was hot," he winks at me, I offer a small smile.

I grab a bottle of wine and four glasses, pouring us all some.

"What are we having then guys?" Benjamin asks taking over the pizza menu. "I'm thinking plain for me, veggie for Jen, pepperoni for Jack and pepperoni for Riv." He looks at us, all of us agreeing with him.

"I'll ring it in," Jenna says, writing our order down.

"I'm going to take my make-up off, I'll be down in a bit," I say as I walk out of the kitchen door, still a little freaked out I've just had sex in front of two close friends without realising.

Once I get upstairs, I wash my face and have a quick shower, spinning my hair on top of my head.

I decide to get into my nightie and silk dressing gown.

I slide my slippers on and close the windows I'd opened earlier, the cool night air making the upstairs of the house a bit too chilly.

On my way down the stairs, I hear Jenna asking Archer about our sex life.

"It seemed pretty raunchy," she says.

"Sex with Riv is just something else. I've had enough sex to know when I'm having great sex. She's just amazing, as though we were made for each other." I hear a snigger, "Seriously, no joke, I've never thought that about anyone, ever. I just fit into her like a jigsaw puzzle."

Funny, I think, that's how I'd describe what sex is like for me with him.

"Does she know what you said to me last week?" Benjamin asks.

"What's that?" Jenna asks.

"No I didn't, and it doesn't matter, I hadn't spent any time with her before then, and no one had made me want to try for them until after I'd spent time with Riv." I hear him take a sip of wine, "Don't say anything to her please Benjamin, I want to do the right thing by her, I want to make this work."

"Sure thing, just don't hurt her, I know your weaknesses, but more importantly, I know where you live."

I finish walking down the stairs and into the kitchen.
