Sorry for the long delay in the update. I have been very busy but I'm writing again :)

"Is she okay?" I hear him ask as I feel Jacob shake his head as he keeps stroking my back. "I need to back out there but I'll be back shortly," he tells Jacob before heading back out the door.
*****
"Why don't we get you somewhere more comfortable huh?" Jacob asks me, and all I can do is nod in agreement. It feels like I've lost my voice and don't know how to talk. "Okay, I tell what, I'm going to put you down and then collect my things and we'll head to the car. How does that sound?" He asks me and I just shake my head. I don't want to let my anchor go, I feel like if I do I'll be lost in a pit of emotions that I don't want to deal with right now. I wrap my arms around his neck tighter hoping that he will understand. "Okay, I won't let you go Eva, I promise," he tells me as he pulls me closer before standing up and collecting his keys of his desk.
He carries me out the back door of his office and to the lift which then takes us to the garage, which is filled with about ten cars in total, "Staff park here," he tells me, as if he knew what I was thinking. Jacob comes to a stop when he reaches what I take to be his car and unlocks it. He manages to open the passenger door with me still in his arms then pops me in, "I'll be right beside you," he whispers and then closes my door and runs round to the driver's side. Once he's in he holds my hand as he texts someone, and then we're off. Between the heated seat adding warmth to my body and the soft music playing in the background I feel myself starting to relax and I ease my grip on Jacob's hand, but still refuse to let go.
ONE WEEK LATER
After my mini breakdown Jacob and Derek have been my near shadows, calling me, texting me and now even hanging out with Brad, which is new. They used to all go out somewhere but now they will invite us over, or invite themselves to whatever we are doing. During the week they have been lovely and friendly to me, even joking on occasion and I'm starting to like them which isn't helpful not when Sarah is around. She's noticed too and because she knows them better than I do, and she has been teasing me non stop about the two hunks that are almost like my guard dogs. According to her they have never acted this way before about anyone and makes me slightly nervous, but she trusts them and so if she does I guess I should too.
"Hey Eva, come be on my team, and help me beat brothers Grimm over there!" Yells Derek from the living room. And I head out from the kitchen with Sarah hot on my heels with beers for everyone.
"Okay, okay what are we playing?" I ask as I'm handed a controller.
"Halo," Derek tells me and soon we're kicking Brad and Jacob's butt at a slayer round.
"You didn't tell me she was that good!" I hear Jacob complain at Brad, after I threw a plasma grenade at his character. Making us all laugh, by the end of the round both Derek and I won.
"To teamwork," Derek laughs before giving me a quick kiss on the lips and then turning to Jacob and sticking his tongue out. Sarah just smiles at me as I sit there a little stunned. Not because of the kiss, well maybe about the kiss but both Derek and Jacob have been touching me randomly through the week. Well actually anytime they could really and I haven't freaked out. Which makes me wonder why. They are two huge men, even if they are gentle.
Chapter 2.
I must have nodded off at some point during the evening, because when I come to, I'm under a duvet and in a bed. Where am I? I ask myself. I quickly look under the covers only to find myself in my underwear "Oh Shit," I whisper as my subconscious is now fully awake and smiling. Well it isn't every day someone gets to see my bugs bunny panties with the slogan 'What's up doc?' and black lace bra! she laughs at me.
I quickly get out of bed and find a shirt which can double as a dress on me, as it comes to my knees, before heading off to find someone. Opening the door I heard both Derek and Jacob and follow the sound of their voices. I stumble upon them working out, both shirtless and sweating with pads on their hands and knees. Damn, even my subconscious blushes at them. I can't help but stare at them in all their glory. They both have fine bodies and obviously work out with the muscles to prove it.
I don't know if I should interrupt them or let them finish, so I just stand and watch them. They seem to be playing a game of tag where they have to try and tag each others elbows and knees, as well as guard their own. Derek manages to tag Jacob's knee, then his elbow and shouts out, "I win," with a laugh and a look of pure satisfaction, which makes me giggle. They both stand and stare at me as I have my hand covering my mouth, giggling.
"I think we have an audience here, Jacob," Derek laughs as he nudges Jacob's shoulder, making his way toward me.
"Well you know what we do with an audience," laughs Jacob as he joins Derek on the way toward me. I stumble back as they both grab me and start tickling me, making me giggle even more.
"Stop, stop. Stop, please. I surrender. 'Stop'" I scream through my giggles and finally they both stop.
"Surrender, huh?" Jacob says as he scratches his head, "Well I'll take a kiss," he smiles at me.
"Me too!" shouts Derek.
"Umm okay." I smile as Jacob slowly comes toward me. I close my eyes and lean into Jacob. His lips are soft and gentle on mine as his hands grab my hips and pull me closer to him, making me gasp and giving him the chance to slip his tongue in my mouth, deepening the kiss. I find myself lost in the kiss which ends too soon, as we both need to come up for air.
"My turn," whispers Derek as he stands behind me turning me to face him. He is just as gentle as Jacob, until he nibbles on my lower lip, sucking on it. As he pulls me into him, Jacob gently rubs his fingertips up my spine.
Again when I come up for air, all I can say is, "WOW!" They both just smile at me before kissing each other. I've never seen two men kiss, but wow is it sexy! Jacob's hand is on Derek's cheek, pulling him closer as Derek's hands are on Jacob's bum. I moan in pleasure at the sight as they stop.
"Shocked, baby?" Jacob smiles at me.
"Yeah, a little. Never did or seen that before," I mumble as Jacob kisses my shoulder from behind.
"What do you want from me?" I ask them.
"It's not what we want from you, it's what we want to do to you," Jacob replied sensually. Both of his hands reached out to lift each of my breasts. His thumbs ran over my nipples, forcing them to stand up and harden beneath my bra and shirt I'm wearing. A gentle gasp escaped me as he pulled me onto his chest. I was soaring. Jacob had barely began touching me when my body responded urgently. I had never felt such a strong sexual pull toward any man. My body was acting on its own, without my mind, which was making me afraid.
"Mmmm... what a show!" smiled Derek at Jacob and I. Suddenly I panicked, "I can't do this let me go." Jacob stopped paying attention to my nipples, and wrapped his arms around me, under my boobs, holding me still.
"Sshhhh, it's ok Eva. What's wrong? Talk to us baby, it's okay, I promise," Jacob whispered in my ear. I was still afraid, but slowly calmed down from the gentle voices of Jacob and Derek. Before I know it, I start telling them my reason for freaking out.
"I'm sorry... I just...it's well, it's me. I can't," I start stammering, but before I can continue, Derek interrupts me.
"Is this because of the scars?" he asks.
I start to shake. They saw the scars, my scars. The scars I hate so much. Oh my god, I can't breathe.
"Hey, hey Eva, calm down. Breathe in then out. Nice deep breaths," Jacob coaches me, "in...out...in...out," and soon my breathing comes back to normal, but I can't seem to stop the tears from falling.
"Did someone do that to you?" Derek asks. All I can do is nod. Jacob is still holding me under my boobs, which I'm starting to feel comfortable with. Derek is closer now, holding my hands. "Tell us what has scared you, please?" he begs.
"I...oh god.. it was my stepfather.", I felt like I was about to break, like he was going to jump out. With these two holding me I felt safe to continue, "He did the scars on my arms and chest. He was an abuser and I was his target for three years, but no one believed me apart from Sarah. My stepfather was a pillar of the community, and when I tried to get free from him, he tried to..." I can't continue. I don't want them to look at me like I'm broken, I already know I am. The tears haven't stopped yet either. Derek wipes my face with his thumbs gently before asking me to continue. I can't and shake my head telling them no, but they don't want to let it go.
