Bryson
I threw my keys on the side table by my door. I was very confused. I thought tonight went well before she got the call from her friend.
We arrived a few days early from Vegas. When training got over, Stafford, Cruz and the gang at Becks Security took us out, and we had the whole weekend to recover. However, the next day, I saw Bryce was antsy, and I suggested we head up a few days early. He was all for it. Our teams, however, were hung the f*ck over, so they said we’d see them Monday.
Stafford had handed us the documents we needed and each of us keys to a new furnished condo that was owned by the Denver branch. Bryce was my next-door neighbor, and we were ecstatic to find that out. I didn’t lie to Shay when I told her Bryce and I were close buds. It was like something clicked between us and we instantly became inseparable. We didn’t have a lot of downtime in Vegas, but when we did, we always hung out. Plus, our teams worked well together. My unit was solid, we worked like a well-oiled machine. Bryce’s team was just as solid. We were proud of our units. We won’t let the Denver branch down.
Shay surprised me. When I saw her profile on the meet cute app, my heart stopped in its tracks. Her picture obviously caught my interest first. It was a serious one, with a raised brow. She was gorgeous. I didn’t think she had on an ounce of make-up either. I saw there was another picture in her album and I clicked on it. Her head had been tilted and she was laughing. She took my breath away. I had to meet up with her.
I had been scrolling through the app to kill some time before going to Bryce’s race when I came across her profile. I was surprised when she answered right away. Seeing her in person was completely different from seeing her in pictures. She was gorgeous in her pictures. In person she was stunning. At first, all I saw was golden hair and amazing green eyes. Then, I took in the rest of her, I felt myself start to harden. She had a banging body, tight subtle curves, a great set of t*ts, just right to fill the palms of my hands, and when she got on my bike, I almost groaned out loud when I saw her ass. Firm, round globes that I just knew would look great with my c*ck between them. Then our conversation at the pub. Her intelligence was s*xy as f*ck. I almost lost my sh*t when she told me she was the CFO at Becks Security, but when she said there was no problem with interoffice dating, I calmed down. Finding out about Becks and the others was a shock,
but to each their own, I have no judgments.
I hoped her friend was okay. I made a mental note to send her a text on the app to find out if everything was alright with her friend. Plus, my d*mb ass forgot to get her number, so the app was the only way I could communicate with her.
Keys in my door caught my attention. Bryce and I made copies of our keys and gave each other a set.
He walked in and gave me a head nod.
“Where’d you go? I thought we’d hang out after my races? Here’s your money and your date’s money,” he said, throwing me two stuffed envelopes.
“Easiest 10k I’ve ever made,” I said with a grin. “I was going to meet up with you after the races, but I had to take Shay to the hospital.”
“Is she okay?” Bryce asked suddenly with a strained voice. I looked at him and my brow furrowed.
“Yeah, her friend fell. Why do you sound like that?”
He ran a hand through his black hair and eyed me.
“Remember that girl I told you about the night we got into town? The one at the club we hit up?”
1 smiled, “Yeah, the one that you said bewitched you and had you popping your Denver cherry. Then she vanished into

thin air.”
“Yeah, well, your date tonight, that’s her,” he said, looking at me cautiously.

“What?” my heart rate picked up speed. No way. Not Shay. F*ck the first girl I find any interest in since my break-up with Christine three years ago, and she’s f*cked my best friend. Not only that, but she’s f*cking perfect.
“Yeah, that was her. I told you I didn’t know her name. One minute she rocked my world and the next she disappeared. I’ve thought of nothing but her since then. When I saw her coming out of the girl’s bathroom tonight, I snatched her and had my way with her for a minute. I’m sorry dude. I didn’t know you were the one she was on a date with. When she told me she was on a date, I lost it and got raging jealous. So, um, I fingered her to get her off so she’d be too satisfied to f*ck
her date,” he mumbled.
“So, that’s why she was all flushed when she came back from the restroom,” I said, a light bulb going off in my head. “I kissed her, just so you know. My world stopped man.”
We stared at each other. I didn’t want to give up a chance with Shay, and I could tell he didn’t either.
“What if we both dated her? And then say after a couple of dates, we make her choose, and whoever she chooses, the other backs down gracefully,” Bryce said.
I thought about his suggestion. I didn’t have a problem with it, but, if she chose him, I would have a problem with that, because even after just one date with her, I was eager to see her again and feel the connection we had once more.
“Okay, we need some ground rules. We can’t badmouth each other to her. Also, anything goes. If the connection with her
gets hotter than it already has, I plan to get between her thighs eventually,” I said.
“Oh, if we do this, I will be getting in between her thighs as much as she will let me.”
I felt the challenge. Bryce and I were extremely competitive. All during training, we tried to one up each other, and we
pushed our teams to do the same. It brought us all closer. Bryce and I weren’t the only ones to make a close connection.
Members of our teams did as well. Hell, one guy from his and one from mine started a s*xual relationship with each
other. Rogers and Santiago. Rogers was on my team. It surprised us all because we all thought they hated each other.
They always targeted each other during paintball wars, they bickered a lot. They were always taking snipes at one
another. And then one night on a weekend off, we all went camping and took a trip to Zion National Park. In the middle of
the night, I had to take a piss, and I got out of my tent, walked about thirty feet into the woods and I came across Santiago balls deep in Rogers. After that, they came out, and luckily no one on either team cared. We were just glad they stopped
b*tching at one another.
“You’re on buddy. Be prepared to go down. I plan to wine and dine her, and we both know between the two of us, when it
comes to romance, I am hands down better.”
He smirked, “You think, huh? Cuz as I recall, neither of us have dated in the last year, besides you tonight, and you said
you haven’t been with a woman since Christine.”
“I haven’t, she f*cked me up. My heart is finally ready to date again.”
“I know buddy, I’m sorry for bringing her up.”
“Nah, it’s okay. Back to Shay. No sabotaging dates. Also, we both know the walls are thin in our bedrooms. If you hear any moaning on my side, no banging on walls,” I said with a grin.
“Deal and same. So we’re doing this. We can’t let this f*ck up our relationship. No woman is worth that man. I love you ⚫ like a brother. I will not lose you.”
“Same brother, and no, we won’t let this situation f*ck up what we got going on. I’ll need you to be the best man at our wedding.”

“You c*cky f*ck, he said, grinning.
