"Do you think he's mad?" I ask Logan.

We're in the kitchen feasting on a bowl of milky cheerios. I'm sitting on the countertop by the sink and Logan is standing in front of me between my legs.

I tried to talk to Drew last night but he refused to listen. He locked himself in the guestroom and hasn't come out since. He's avoiding me and he's making it blatantly obvious.

"I mean, he said he wasn't but..." I sigh loudly.

"He is. Even if he says otherwise." He states before shoving another spoonful of cheerios into his mouth.

"I don't blame him." I say. "I would probably be mad at me too." He swallows and chuckles. I take the spoon from his hand and scoop up some cheerios for myself from the bowl. Yes, we're sharing a bowl and spoon.

"I think I would be mad too if I were him." He says. I place the spoonful of cheerios in my mouth and begin savouring the milky cheerio-goodness. "I mean, what man wouldn't be mad at the fact that the love of his life is dating another man?"

I chew some more before swallowing. "True." Rather than taking the spoon from my hand he opens his mouth for me to feed him. I giggle and feed him a spoonful of cheerios as if it were the most romantic gesture in the world. At that precise moment Drew walks in. I guess he decided to be mature and quit avoiding me.

"Great." He mutters when he sees us. Or not. He heads to the fridge without looking our way.

"See?" Logan says referring to Drew. I sigh.

"This so ironic." I begin. "In high school I was invisible to the male species and now two of the most gorgeous men I have ever met are in love with me." I say.

"Who said I'm in love with you?" He retorts. I narrow my eyes at him. He grins. "I was kidding."

"You better be." I state. He leans in until his lips are hovering over mine.

"Ellie, I love you more than life itself." He whispers. I smile. He presses his lips against mine in a gentle tender kiss. Tiny little flames erupt beneath my skin as we kiss; his touch is almost as electric as Drew's and I love it.

"Get a room." We pull away to find Jess entering the kitchen. She's eyeing us with a look of disgust on her face.

"Good morning to you too Jess." We say in unison.

"Whatever." She mutters as she heads towards the fridge.

"Could you atleast save the PDA for when I'm not around?" Drew asks from his seat at the island. He's munching on a bowl of milky cheerios. Yep, he loves a good ole bowl of cheerios in the morning too.

"Yes sir!" I salute him mockingly. Logan steps aside and I hop down from the countertop. I don't fail to notice the way Drew bites down on his lower lip to surpress a smile that's threatening to form on his face.

I lean over the island countertop towards him. "You do realize that I can see right through you, right?" I say.

"Don't you have a boyfriend to bother?" He retorts without looking up from the bowl of cheerios in front of him. There's a hint of hostility in his voice that I instantly detect.

"I do but I'd much rather bother you right now." I retort.

"Just leave me alone okay?" This time he looks me straight in the eyes.
