Chapter 21 (1,7K)

NOT EDITED, DON'T COME AT ME! ENJOY OR DON'T READ ^^

Ana woke up in Jack's arms, immediately aware that Christian was in the kitchen as it smelled like eggs and bacon already. Over the past week, Christian had spent a lot of time in the kitchen, and Jack had admitted to her that it was his way of dealing when he was feeling helpless over a situation.

And in hindsight, it was a pattern that she had noticed without paying attention. When Jack was feeling overwhelmed during exam periods, or when she'd have severe period cramps, or again when Jack's father had a worrying cold last year. Christian would always turn into cooking mode and overfeed them.

But since it was the Christmas period, and even more, it was Christmas morning, Ana didn't mind. She felt that she was entitled into indulging in food. She had her foot in a cast, it was Christmas, and her brother was being pigheaded.

There was no doubt in her mind that he would get over it, he just needed time. And in hindsight, she hadn't chosen the best period of time to break him the news. She should have waited a bit just so he wouldn't celebrate Christmas alone.

She wasn't going to pretend that she didn't care about his reaction, because she did, but she knew her brother. He simply needed time, and she felt that if she vented to the guys about Elliott taking his sweet time to accept the thing, they might grow some unneeded resentment against him.

But that was something for tomorrow. Right now, she snuggled against Jack, kissing his bare chest and appreciating his presence. He came back late in the night from his sister, though Ana found it odd that he went to visit his sister out of the blue without Christian and her.

"I love you, Ana," he told her with a bright smile as his hand went up to caress her face, and she gave him back his smile.

Though Christian was more romantic in his gestures, with the extravagant bouquets of flowers he had delivered at her office weekly, for instance, Jack was more romantic in his words. Jack could make her melt with his tongue. Physically, or literally.

Though the best thing Jack has ever gotten her was a poem he wrote to her, praising his love for her. She hadn't stopped smiling for a week, and Christian pretended to brood about it, saying he never got any poems for him.

She gave him back his smile, pecking his lips as she told him from the bottom of her heart, "I love you more."

Quickly, their kiss that started out so innocent turned into something more heated and passionate. Be free she could realise it, she was on her back, and her nightgown had disappeared, not that she complained. This was the most sexual any guys have been with her since Elliott left. Jack wickedly smiled at her, before he started kissing his way down,

"Christian might be getting our Christmas breakfast ready, but I think this year, I'll be glutinous and have my own before."

She giggled, wishing for Christian to burst in on them and bring the rough side of fun like he knew so well how to bring. And just as Jack was kissing her inner thighs, teasing her in a deliciously tantalising way, as if he had heard her thoughts, Christian barged into the room, quickly closing the door behind him as the nice smell of food got briefly stronger.

He looked panicked, which made Ana lose focus of what Jack was about to do to her. Christian looked at her exposed body, making a grimace of disappointment as he said, "Yeah, I think we'll get a rain check on Christmas Goodies, this year. Elliott is here."

"What?!" Ana panicked, reaching for her nightgown. The guys helped her out of bed and get ready, even though she had gotten the logistics of it, and as Christian helped her into her robe, she told them,

"Maybe you guys should stay here … I mean, I have no idea why he's here and …"

"We're staying with you this time," Jack asserted, not leaving room for arguing.

"Plus, he doesn't look that pissed anymore. Now, I don't know if he would have been so chill if he had been the one coming to wake you up, as he wanted to do."

Ana turned red like a Christmas hat, glad that Christian had the foresight to prevent this situation. In truth, she would have loved to wake up to her brother's face wishing her a merry Christmas, but given what transpired just a few minutes ago, she was glad it didn't happen, though slightly sexually frustrated now.

Once she got in the living room, she found Elliott there, looking at a picture of her and the guys at the beach, and he grinned at her as soon as he saw her, teasing her, "You got lazy, Beans. I remember a time when you sued to drag me out of bed at 4am so you could see Santa."

She hoped her way to him and wrapped her arms around him, tears in her eyes as he whispered in her ear a 'merry Christmas'. She knew he would come around. She just didn't expect him to do it so quickly.

"What changed your mind?"

"Ja … your boyfriend."

She turned to look a Jack, though the implication that Elliott had just made wasn't lost on her. Not only was he here to celebrate Christmas with her, but he also acknowledged that she was in a polyamorous relationship. Still, the mystery of Jack going to see his sister all of the sudden was finally resolved. She quickly glanced at Christian, wondering if he had known as well, but though he seemed less surprised than her, he didn't seem to be in the secrecy, just confirming what he had suspected.

They all went to the kitchen, and as she sat in her chair, Elliott let her know, "I have your present by the way."

She kept to herself that no present would surpass Jack talking him into coming back for Christmas, but still grinned like a child when she saw the card will all the different beans on it. It was a tradition that had started when she was young, and that they had kept alive all those years.

Christian peaked at her card over her shoulder as he put in front of her her plate, and asked, "Are we ever going to know why you call her Beans?"

Elliott's eyes briefly lingered in the gentle squeeze Ana gave Christian to thank him for his thoughtfulness, as well as Christian's discreet shake of his head to tell her that it was nothing; before he cleared his throat and explained with a smirk, "That was because she was sooooo annoying when we were kids. She was chasing me everywhere with beans so I could help her plant them. She wanted to go to the land of the golden geese. Might I add that the beans were already cooked and half-eaten?"

They all laughed, including Ana who started a long tirade about how the magic of the thing was to have trees growing out of cooked beans, not out of regular beans, obviously. Jack also shared some stories he had with his siblings, and Christian promised that beans were from now on something that would be added to their Christmas traditions.

All in all, they spent a great Christmas together, and at night, just before bed, when Christian and Jack pretended to be busy cleaning the kitchen to give them some privacy, Elliott hugged his sister and apologised,

"I'm sorry Beans. I shouldn't have said what I said. I was just … being a Jackass."

She gave him back his embrace and he added, "Mom and Dad would just care that you are happy. It's all I care about too. And you are obviously beyond happy, you are blessed."

.~°~. .~°~. .~°~.

Elliott stayed for the entirety of Christmas break, and not once did he make a comment about their relationship. He did not avoid the topic, or turn his eyes whenever they touched hands or something, but treated the thing as if it was normal. Still, Ana saw the systematic grimace on his face when they would go to bed. But she put that on Elliott's conservative ideas of sex before marriage, more than on them being a trio.

She also felt that there was something Elliott wasn't telling her about his life back in California, but she knew that Elliott was pretty private about his life, and no matter how buddy he was with Jack, he wouldn't say anything in front of him

Right now, they were on their way to the New Year's party at her company. Elena had assured her that she didn't need to come, given her broken foot, but Ana wanted to party, and she knew that, with the three overprotective guys in her life who thought she was suddenly made of sugar, an office party was the best she would get.

Plus, she was a bit curious since Elena had told her that her son would quickly pop by before going back to his own business as it was a busy night for him.

Of course, she invited Elliott and had to drag him with them, saying that dancing with a girl didn't need he needed to marry her, and as she arrived with her two beaux (Elliott looking too much like her to be mistaken for anything but her brother), she knew that she was putting to rest all the rumours about her two timings Christian and Jack.

Both men had come to pick her up several times or have lunch with her, but since it was never together, people at the office had started assuming that she was just cheating on them. Now, they would just shut up and deal with it.

Elena came to greet her, all smiles in her radiant in her satin pink dress. She bowed her head to the guys, before waving at someone in the crowd, "Sweetheart, come meet your sister by proxy."

Ana turned, curious to see if Elena's son had inherited her good looks, and she gaped when she saw the last person she could have expected, Jason Taylor.
