Logan felt a little weird… self-conscious, even. It wasn’t unusual for Logan to spend some evenings with Arthur and Adrian, he was getting a lot friendlier with Arthur now (to the point where they could hang out without Adrian’s supervision) and Adrian was still his best friend. They often hung out to watch a big game, have a movie marathon or sometimes they went out to the bar. Tonight was just a quiet guy’s night in with some Marvel movies playing in the background as they laughed and chatted amongst themselves. Well, that’s what usually happened, tonight was a little different, the conversation seemed uncertain and it was obvious that something was up, but what?
The couple were notorious for being sickly sweet together in their own home, but they seemed to be whispering to each other a lot and glancing his way. Logan knew they were up to something, they were scheming something and it had something to do with him… but what? Hours he sat there, whenever they left the room to get drinks or something, he would hear the murmur of their voices through the wall, now and then hearing something that sounded oddly like his name. Logan left the room to pretend to go to the bathroom, and he then heard the murmuring from outside the the room.
“We should just come out and say it. He’ll take it well.” That was Arthur’s voice, obviously reassuring Adrian, who didn’t sound convinced when he replied, “Arthur, he’s my best friend! What if he can’t stand the sight of me after we tell him?” Logan was at first happy to hear he was his best friend – it always helped to hear it – but then frowned at the next bit. What was so bad that Logan could not stand the site of Adrian? “Adrian,” Arthur began again, “Logan is a great, open minded guy… even if he doesn’t like the offer I don’t think…” he started, but Logan didn’t want to hear anymore and he moved into the room, making sure they could see the curiosity in his face, “So, what do you guys want to ask me?” he asked, causing the other two to exchange glances as if trying to decide who was going to take the responsibility. In the end, it was Adrian, “”Logan, do you know what a polyamorous relationship is?”

That was almost a year ago now. Logan, Adrian and Arthur look back at that moment and laugh fondly, Arthur reminding Adrian how much he had worried about the proposition and how right Arthur had been that Logan would take it well. It was probably the best decision they ever made, and tonight Logan was lying with one man’s head on his chest and the other who nuzzled his face into Logan’s hair. Adrian broke the silence, “It’s been a good year, hasn’t it?” he asked, glancing up at them both from Logan’s chest, and they both murmured in agreement, but then Arthur chuckled, “I’ve grown quite fond of this ass…” he said, his hand moving down Logan’s side and Logan smirked, “I noticed.” He said, kissing Arthur’s shoulder before Adrian’s forehead, “I’m fond of you guys too.”
