... text from Susan. It would hurt, but I had to be honest with her. I couldn't hide anything from her, not after we both declared our love for each other. "Lucy, there's something you need to see." I took my phone and showed her the text from Susan. As she read it, her smile turned upside down and the tears came suddenly, and in a torrent. "Oh, Frank, this was something I was afraid of. Just when I tell you how much I love you, this has to happen." The tears intensified and she was sobbing uncontrollably. It was devastating to see her like this. I took her into my arms and tried to console her. "Lucy, it doesn't mean anything to me. My relationship with Susan has been a sham for some time now, and just because she wants to come out here doesn't change how I feel about you. We'll find a way, don't you worry. It might not be easy, but we'll find a way to be together." That seemed to help assuage her fears, and her crying faded away. "I really love you, Frank. I never thought I would find love after all I've been through, but it happened. You broke down all of my defenses. I love you, honey, and I'll do whatever you want to make this work." Just then Megan came into the kitchen to see what was holding us up with the wine. "Oh, no," she said, "Is something wrong?" "Nothing that can't be fixed," I told her.

I'm no stranger to sex, but I know that what we shared tonight went way beyond just sex. This is going to sound crazy, but I was going to ask you both if I could be a part of your lives. I've been looking for a special someone to share my life with ever since my girlfriend moved away. I didn't want to hop into bed with just anyone, but you two seem like you have something I'm looking for. And you're both a little older than I am, which is a good thing as far as I'm concerned. I was hoping to find someone, but I just didn't think it would be with two people. I guess what I'm asking is if I can be your girlfriend. And when I say that, I mean your exclusive girlfriend. I don't want to be with anyone else but the two of you. Is that crazy of me to think that, or does it sound like something you both would like to try?" Wow! That came out of left field, to be sure. I looked at Lucy, who was still wrapped in my embrace. Lucy smiled and nodded. That was all I needed to see. "Well, Megan, it looks like we've got a girlfriend. Lucy and I would love to be with you. We don't know how to figure it all out, but we'll think of something." Megan looked stunned, as if she doubted we would ...
