open. That’s a good thing.”

It was a good thing. Hudson hadn’t really thought of that aspect. He just wanted to promise his life to his men. It wasn’t about anyone else.

“You’re very good at changing the subject,” Rocky said, dragging Hudson’s mind back to their earlier topic.

Cooper’s smile fell. “Please stop. He doesn’t look at me that way. No one does. I’m everyone’s little brother, and... just don’t, okay?”

Rocky reached out and took Cooper’s hand. “I’m just messing with you, buddy. Or more to the point, I’m messing with Tito. We’re glad you’re living here. I wouldn’t want you to be uncomfortable living with us.”

Cooper nodded. “I know. It’s just that you three have each other and Tito feels like the first real friend I’ve had in a long time. I don’t want him to start avoiding me.”

“They can’t run me off that easily,” Tito said, appearing in the doorway with a drink in each hand.

Hudson smacked Jinx’s ass. He recognized their cue. “Let’s head to bed. We have a big day tomorrow. It looks like the kids plan to stay up late.”

Jinx climbed from Rocky’s body and kissed Cooper’s cheek. After everyone said their good nights and left Tito and Cooper alone, Rocky, Jinx, and Hudson headed for the bedroom they now shared. They went through their nightly paces and climbed into bed together, the way they did every night. Hudson thrived on the routine. He was healthier than he had been in years and it was completely due to Rocky and Jinx’s love. Despite all his progress, Hudson still didn’t sleep well. His excitement made things worse. Tomorrow, the whole world would watch them commit to one another and it felt so real.

“Are you okay?”

It was as if Rocky had some sixth sense. He always knew when Hudson had the most trouble sleeping. Hudson smiled into the dark. “Are you? I keep thinking about how you didn’t want to be a husband. Come tomorrow, you’ll be as good as one. Not to mention, my lawyers are tying our lives together every bit as legally as a marriage. A part of me keeps worrying you’ll back out.”

“He’s not backing out,” Jinx whispered into the dark, as if there was anyone left to disturb.

Rocky snuggled closer, squashing Jinx in between them. “Damn right. I want this. You two are my whole world. I’m ready for all the legal entanglements you can throw my way. This is forever.”

A smile tugged at Hudson’s lips. His eyelids grew heavy. It was crazy to him how one reassurance from Rocky could make all his troubles disappear. His eyes slipped closed. “I love you both more than the moon.” The words sounded thick with sleep, even to his ears. Hudson was pretty sure Rocky and Jinx returned his words, but the warmth of Jinx against his body had Hudson’s mind drifting away. He used to be so torn between being happy and being real. The only person he trusted for years was Tito. Hudson didn’t completely understand what choice he had made that had been so right. All he knew was his house was filled with love now. Peace. Happiness. Maybe he was still a bit of mess, but wasn’t everyone? At least he wasn’t alone. Rocky and Jinx would never let him be alone. Hudson couldn’t wait to grow old with his best friends. He couldn’t wait to tell the rest of the world to suck his dick. Hudson had chosen happiness. He had chosen to live.
