Simone The second I pulled away from Nick's house, I knew I'd have to avoid the office. Those pictures would probably be online in minutes. Everyone would be talking about me and calling me names behind my back. It wasn't worth the stress today.When we approached my house, I realized I wouldn't be able to stay long. There were dozens of paparazzi camping out in front of my home. I felt sick and violated. Not only had they followed me to Nick's, but now they were invading my sacred place.I asked the driver to pull around to the block behind my house and gave him an extra tip and a five-star rating. Hopefully, that would be enough to keep him from sharing his story of driving around LA's most notorious real estate agent.I walked carefully through my neighbor's backyard, trying to keep my heels from getting stuck in the grass. This was so not how I wanted to be spending my morning, especially after such a good night. Nick was as passionate as Michael and as precise as Rob. He
SimoneA few minutes later, a courier knocked on the door. He had flowers and an envelope from Rob. Mandy took the flowers to put in water, and I opened the envelope.Inside was a note and a credit card with my name on it.'I know this hasn't been easy, but know that I'm always going to take care of you. I've taken the liberty of adding you to my personal account. I want you to buy whatever you want, on me. XO, Rob.'I was overwhelmed. I stared at the platinum card, knowing it probably had no limit. Knowing him, I could probably spend millions of dollars without him even batting an eye. I would never take advantage of him like that, but I was touched that he wanted to take care of me.I showed it to Mandy, who snatched it out of my hand and started waving it around. "We're going shopping, we're getting mani-pedis, we're spending money, we're getting pretty," she sing-songed in an annoying voice."You do know that we're more than capable of doing all of those things without
SimoneI didn't want to go to the office the next day. Lately, I never wanted to go, but I knew that Jake was putting a lot of faith in me. He continued to shrug off the bad press and let Mandy and me take off when we needed to. I'd never had a better boss, and I was grateful.Still, I didn't want to face the women of the office. They could be just as catty and mean as the paparazzi. And that wasn't even including Crystal.Crystal, who called me "slut" the second I walked through the door."I'm just wondering," she said nastily. "Do you do them all at the same time, or do you take turns?"I flipped her off and opened my computer."You can ignore me all you want, but it doesn't change the fact that you're a nasty slut," she called to my back. "I bet you'd sleep with any guy who wanted to buy a house from you."I turned to face her, fixing her with my meanest glare."Did you need something, or do you just have to keep talking until you run out of air?"She smirked at me
Simone Thank God it was Friday! So far I didn't have any showings scheduled, so I was ready to just relax all weekend. It had been such a nightmare of a week, I was excited to have some time to decompress and enjoy myself. With Gladys and Bert's listing up, I was looking at a ridiculous commission. I just needed to convince Nick that he needed to buy that house.At lunchtime, Michael texted me to come over after work. I felt excitement building in my chest. I hadn't seen any of the guys in person since the basketball game, and I couldn't wait to see Michael and reconnect with him. I imagined we'd have a lot of catching up to do.Mandy was out doing a showing, so I texted her that I wouldn't be staying with her that evening."Enjoy your night, you minx," she texted back with a wink. She and I both knew that I would have an amazing time with Michael. I always did.I drove to his house, singing at the top of my lungs. I was so happy to be done with work for a couple of days–and
MichaelSimone stirred in her sleep, but I didn't try to wake her. We'd been at it for hours, and we were both exhausted. I'd wake up every hour or so just to pull her to me, and inevitably we'd end up going at it again.I truly wasn't jealous of the other guys. That wasn't my motivation. I just couldn't keep my hands off of her, keep myself from thrusting inside of her. Everything about her set me off, even the smallest details like the way her hair tickled my skin or her breath warmed my face.She talked in her sleep, and I wanted to know all of her secrets. I did worry that maybe Rob and Nick were getting more emotionally intimate with her. Most of our interactions were about f*cking fantastic sex. I tried to fight back the cloud that was growing in my mind.This was why we had the schedule and the rules. Our purpose wasn't to compete with each other; it was to give Simone the best of ourselves. We each wanted to make sure that she was treated like the queen she was."What
RobI was nervous when I knocked on Mandy's door to pick up Simone, partly because I was hoping not to run into Mandy. She intimidated the hell out of me. But it was also partly because I hadn't been with Simone in a while.Nick and Michael were such surprisingly cool guys, but I could help but wonder where I fit into the mix. What did Simone see in me that made her like me as much as she liked them? The goal of the night was to show her what I had to offer.She opened the door and smiled widely at me. She definitely didn't look like she was dreading the evening. At least this time she wasn't crying."Hi," she said shyly.She took a step toward me and wrapped her arms around my neck. She was wearing tall shoes that almost put her and me at almost the same level. My arms easily wrapped around her waist, not having to reach as low as usual.She leaned away just enough to capture my lips in hers. Most of the time, she was the one initiating everything. Tonight, I was going to
SimoneI woke up with Rob's head nestled between my breasts, his arms wrapped around my middle. I breathed in his scent and let out a sigh. Mornings were always the hardest. They meant that our time together was coming to an end, and reality would soon set in.Thankfully, I didn't have anything to do until my evening with Nick. I ran my fingers through Rob's messy hair and listened to him breathe until he started to wake up. It was a perfect moment of uninterrupted calm.When he finally woke up, he slowly looked up at me and smiled a lazy smile. His eyes were barely open, and even so they were the most gorgeous shade of blue. I wanted to dive deep inside them and get lost at sea."Good morning," he whispered, not breaking the calm around us.Then he adjusted himself so he was hovering over me. He leaned down, and I grabbed his face in my hands, giving him a long, yearning kiss."Good morning," I said back after a few minutes."That's one hell of a way to wake up," he grin
SimoneI looked at my clock again and groaned. It was much earlier than I wanted it to be, plus my sexy weekend was officially over. I'd have to go back into the office and face whatever nastiness was happening there. And I wasn't scheduled to see any of the guys until the weekend.They said they wanted to give me alone time, but I didn't want alone time. I didn't want to be away from any of them. I left Nick sleeping while I showered and got ready for work. He'd just wrapped up a big movie and wasn't scheduled for his next one for a few months. He deserved to sleep in as long as he wanted. I was, obviously, very jealous.When I was finished blow drying my hair, I came back into the bedroom to find my bed empty. I didn't like that at all. I walked out to the kitchen to find Nick brewing us both coffee and making me eggs. He looked sheepish when I caught him."It's all I can really make," he said with a shrug.I walked over and kissed him tenderly, honored that he would thi
