Both Reid and Tyler looked up at the door when they heard the heavy knock. They could clearly see the outline of who was standing outside the door and it was their favorite girl. Both being in the doghouse with said girl, they assumed she was coming for the other and made no move to open the door.

"Bitches," Jane snarled, "open the door." She slapped her hand on the glass and both boys winced at the sharp sound.

Reid was lounging on his bed, which was closest to the door. He got up and opened the door slowly in trepidation.

Jane shoved herself the rest of the way in. "I've been thinking," despite their current feud, the boys automatically exchanged a look that said that that meant trouble, "and you guys are insane." She was pacing which was never a good sign. "You're trying to make me choose between the two of you and I just cannot do that. You're fucking crazy if you think I'm going to do that."

"Well," Reid started.

"Shut up," Jane ordered. "Just shut the fuck up. Bad things happen when you open your mouth, Reid Garwin, and by bad things happening I mean my foot up your ass. So, shut the fuck up." She pointed at Tyler who had not even been in her line of vision. "Don't you dare laugh, you motherfucker." Tyler, of course, did what he was told and stopped his silent snickering.

"Now, I'm only going to say this once," she warned the two boys, her voice turning deadly. "We're going to forget those kisses ever happened. Shut up!" she screamed when the two opened their mouths to protest then continued. "We're going to forget either of those kisses ever fucking happened and we're going to continue being the best of fucking friends or else you and I will never hang out ever the fuck again. Do you understand?"

"But," the boys said at the same time.

"I said DO YOU FUCKING UNDERSTAND?" she yelled.

A beat then, "Yes."

"Yeah."

"I don't believe you," she said after looking at them for a second. She repeated the question a third time, "Do you understand?"

There was a full moment where each boy weighed the consequences. Both came to the same conclusion that they'd rather stay friends than never speak to the girl again.

"Yes," Reid said first, the defeat evident in his voice.

Surprisingly, it took Tyler longer to answer. But he finally acquiesced.

At his acceptance, Jane seemed to calm down. "Good," she said, rubbing her face, "good." She wrapped her arms around herself and the boys suddenly realized how much pain they'd been causing her over their spat. Suddenly, her previous ire returned. "Well?" she said as if the boys should know what to do.

Neither made a move.

She propped her arms on her hips and said, "Well, are you two idiots going to hug me or not?"

They approached her slowly and hesitantly, but then enclosed her in a cage of arms – if they chose, she would never be able to get out. The boys' arms overlapped and each tried to ignore the warmth that was rising off of the other.

For several moments, Jane said nothing and just breathed them in. She suddenly broke the silence by murmuring into Tyler's chest.

Neither boy tried to get his hopes up, but it sounded a hell of a lot like, "I fucking love you, dumb asses."

TBC.

Author's Note: Hahahahahhahahahahahahahha. That has got to be the funniest confrontation I've ever written in my life. No, wait, I'm wrong. The one between Reid and Tyler was funnier (come on, the 'context clues' bit was classic!). But still, I hope this made you understand who Jane is as a person more and how both of them could fall in love with her. That's what's up.
