Hi everyone,
Sorry it's taken so long for me to finish this chapter. I've had it written for a while now, but between life and lack of motivation, it took a while to get it edited. Big thanks to signorecalcio for helping with the final edits, and of course Captain_Ron for writing the original story, and giving feedback on this one as well.
Enjoy!
*****
After that night spent in the backyard with the beach, I could tell Kevin was much more comfortable about interactions between the guys and I, and to be honest, I felt more comfortable as well.
When I first moved in with the guys, they all told me to make myself at home, but I really didn't. At my place, I would often wear next to nothing around the house, but with the guys, I usually wore the same kinds of outfits that I would wear when I left the house. In fact, I even put on makeup most of the time.
That all ended after the beach night. The very next morning, I woke up, took a shower, and made breakfast just like I would have at home. And by that, I mean that I didn't bother putting any clothes on. Of course the guys noticed. By the time I was done making breakfast, all of them were watching me, but I tried not to pay attention to them.
I also decided that there was no reason for me to take separate pictures for Kevin. The guys had seen enough of me that nothing I sent Kevin would be new to the other guys. So whenever I took a sexy pic, like after my shower, playing with my favorite dildo, or maybe even just lying on the bed with my legs spread waiting for Kevin, I sent them to the guys too.
Besides those two changes, nothing really eventful happened between the beach night and Jeff's call the next Friday.
"Alright, see you then!" I heard Jeff say, before hanging up the phone, as I came out of my room. I had just gotten home, and changed into a typical lounge-at-home outfit: my favorite white tank top and a pair of pink boyshort panties.
"Who was that?" I asked casually, sitting down next to him on the couch.
"Oh, just my ex," he replied. He pretended not to notice my lack of pants, but I caught him glancing at my legs.
"So you're going to be seeing her again?"
"Well," he said, hesitantly. "She said she's in town for a few days with her new boyfriend, and said she wants to hang out while she's here. So, I invited them over for dinner tonight."
The front door opened, and Matt and Shawn came inside. I waved at them, and they waved back.
I turned back to Jeff. I could tell he wasn't really into the idea, so I asked, "How do you feel about that?"
"I'm not really sure. I mean, we broke up on good terms, but I think it will be a little awkward. I haven't had a girlfriend since, but I don't want her to think I'm not over her or anything, you know?"
I nodded. I completely understood what he was going through. In the past, I had been through some similar relationships. I could tell that Jeff just wanted Sara to know he was over her, so they could get on with their lives.
Shawn overheard our conversation, and said, "Wait. Did I hear that right? Sara's coming over tonight?" Jeff nodded. "And you're worried about her thinking you're not over her?" Jeff nodded again. "Well, I've got the perfect idea!"
"Yeah?" Jeff said, with a skeptical tone. Matt came over to hear what Shawn had planned.
"Yeah," Shawn said, taking a seat beside me. "What if you had a girlfriend for her dinner tonight?"
"Well, that would be awesome, but I've been trying to find a girl I like for a while. I don't even have anyone that I could ask if I wanted to."
"Sure you do," Shawn replied, looking at me.
Jeff didn't understand at first, and neither did I. He looked at me, and suddenly it clicked. "What? Elise can't be my girlfriend. She's dating Kevin."
"Yeah," Shawn replied, "but Sara doesn't know that. What do you think, Elise?"
"You mean pretending to be Jeff's girlfriend?" I asked, still a little confused. Shawn nodded. I thought about it for a few seconds. I did enjoy acting, and it's not like we'd be having sex or anything; it was just dinner. So, I turned to Jeff and said, "I think that's a great idea!"
"Would Kevin be okay with that?" he asked. He seemed surprised at my willingness.
"Oh, um," I said. I hadn't even thought about asking Kevin first. "I'm guessing he would be. We can ask him when he gets home."
I grabbed my phone and texted him, "Hi Babe :) Almost done?"
He texted back a few seconds later, "Yep"
I replied, "Cool! Come right home if you can. Need a favor."
He replied, "Sure. See you soon."
I turned back to Jeff. "He's almost done with classes. He'll be home soon." Shawn and Matt had already retreated to their rooms.
"Awesome," Jeff replied. "Look, Elise, you don't have to do this if you don't want to."
"What?" I replied. "Why wouldn't I want to do it? It's just a little acting."
"Yeah, I guess so," he replied, but he didn't seem too sincere.
"So, why did you and Sara break up?" I asked. I figured if I was going to be Jeff's girlfriend, I needed to know as much as I could about him and his relationship with Sara.
"Oh. She moved away for college, and didn't have a car. You know how those things are, right?"
I nodded. A similar thing had happened to me, in fact. When I left for college, I broke up with my boyfriend. Of course, part of it was also that I met Kevin, but my ex didn't need to know that.
We made some more small talk, getting to know each other as best as we could, until Kevin arrived. I greeted him at the door, with a hug, and led him into the living room.
"Hey, what's up?" Kevin asked, after taking a seat.
"You remember Sara, right?" Jeff asked.
"Yeah, of course I remember Sara," he replied.
"Well, she gave me a call earlier. She's in town for a couple days with her new boyfriend and wanted to see me, so I invited them over tonight." Jeff said.
"That's good, right? She was a good friend and we haven't seen her in ages. It will be fun to catch up on things," he replied.
Jeff sighed, "Yeah, it's good I guess. But she has a boyfriend now, and I don't want her to know that I've been single ever since the breakup."
"Well, you have a good excuse. You're in college. Just tell her you're dating around and don't want anything serious," Kevin said.
Jeff shook his head, "I don't think she'd buy it. She knows me too well."
"So what's this favor, what do you want me to do?" Kevin asked.
I figured it would be better if Kevin heard it from me, so I said, "Well, Jeff and I were talking and we thought that maybe I could be his pretend girlfriend for the evening while Sara's here."
He didn't really acknowledge what I said. Instead he looked back to Jeff and said, "Sara's cool, I don't see why you need to make up a story."
"I know she's cool, but I don't want her to pity me. It will be awkward and she'll worry that she broke my heart and I can't get over her. It's not true of course, but that's what she'll believe." Jeff explained.
"So you want Elise to be your girlfriend for a couple hours," he said. He didn't seem to be enjoying the idea.
"Come on, it will be fun," I said, trying to convince him. "Just like acting. You know how much I love acting. I was in the drama club in high school and everything."
Kevin shrugged, "Whatever, okay I guess."
Jeff smiled as I clapped my hands. I was excited about the idea. Kevin didn't seem to feel the same, but at least he was receptive to it.
"This is going to be really fun," I said. "First we need to get our stories straight. Sara might ask us some personal questions."
Jeff thought for a moment, then said, "You're right. Okay, well we can just go with the story of how you and Kevin met. I was there so we can just replace Kevin with me."
"Yeah, good idea, that should work," I said. "Plus I've known you pretty much as long as I've known Kevin so there shouldn't be too many surprises."
Jeff and I worked out the details of the story, and a few other points about our fake relationship. Then, I turned to Kevin. "There's one more thing."
"Okay, what?" he asked.
"Well," I said. I was nervous about what I was about to say, but it needed to be said. "To be convincing we may need to be a little affectionate."
"Affectionate, huh?" he replied. He was very skeptical of the idea. "This is sounding more like Jeff is trying to make Sara jealous."
"Well, maybe a little bit, Elise is probably the prettiest woman I've ever met," Jeff admitted.
"Aww, you're so sweet," I said, placing a hand on his arm.
