The party lasted well into the night hours. I had offered for Morgyn to stay with me for a few days in order to rest. He had accepted, and Caleb said he would come around more to help out as well. Realistically, I knew he just wanted to be close to the both of us.

We started to say our goodbyes, and Morgyn and I teleported to my apartment, grabbing Caleb’s shoulders to have him teleport with us.

Morgyn and Caleb sat down on the couch. I went into the kitchen to get us some ice water. When I came back, Morgyn was standing at the window, staring off at the bright lights of the city against the night sky.

"I've never noticed how pretty the city is at night," he said.

I sat down on the couch, placing our glasses on the coffee table. "But, how often are you even in the city at night?"

Morgyn laughed quietly. "Not often enough." He turned toward me with a flirtatious smile. "Maybe that'll change." He came and sat by me.

I blushed and nodded. "Maybe."

Caleb grinned. “You two are adorable,” he beamed.

“It’s not awkward for you two?” Morgyn asked, taking a sip of his water.

“Maybe a little,” I shrugged. “I’m a little afraid that if I show one of you affection in front of the other, there may be a little bit of jealousy.”

Caleb waved his hand. “Not here.”

Morgyn echoed his sentiments. “I agree.”

I swirled the water in my glass. “I’m sure I’ll get used to it.” I realized I was sitting a good distance away from Morgyn, while he was sitting closer to Caleb. It was like I was actively trying not to make Caleb jealous by sitting closer to Morgyn. I scooted a little closer to him, and he smiled at me.

“I’m sure you will too.” He leaned closer to me, resting his head on my shoulder and giving me a big smile.

I laughed and kissed his forehead. “Weirdo.”

“Hey!” He lifted his head and glared at me.

I laid down resting my head in Morgyn’s lap. I grinned up at him. “Don’t worry,” I said. “I’m weird too.”

“She’s right,” Caleb chimed in.

I looked at him and smiled. “But you love it.”

He nodded decisively. “Yes, I do.”

Morgyn watched this banter and smiled. “Caleb, you’re musing over us, and how cute we are, but you two are just as adorable.”

“You two are also adorable,” I chimed in, pointing two fingers, one at each of them. “Even though I’ve only seen you two be truly adorable once, and it was a tongue in cheek thing.”

Caleb and Morgyn looked at each other. They shrugged in unison and leaned closer to each other, kissing.

I squealed in excitement. “Oh my God, you guys are so cute!”

They both blushed and broke the kiss.

I giggled, climbing over Morgyn to sit on both of their laps. “Again!”

Caleb laughed. “We don’t kiss on command.”

“Sure we do,” Morgyn grinned and kissed him again.

I giggled and rested my head on Caleb’s chest. 

Morgyn broke their kiss and eyed me. I grinned and kissed him, putting my arms around him. There was a strong shock, and he pulled me closer. I giggled, following his movements. After a few moments, we pulled away, but he just gazed into my eyes.
