《Natalia's Fairytale》Chapter 3
Advertisement
The two brothers both had matching smiles as they made it to our table. " Hello beautiful ladies, this is my brother Johnathon, or John for short, and I'm Jacob. I realized on the way over here that introductions flew completely from my mind.", the serious one stated as he reached out his hand to me.
I stood up to shake his hand back, "No it's fine I realized the same thing just 2 minutes ago. I am Natalia or Tally for short. This is Toni and Ashley.", I said each name as Jacob shook their hands and John followed suit.
"Natalia, what a beautiful name for a beautiful woman.", flirted John as he also put a small peck to my hand. My cheeks heated up a little bit as I looked over a little nervously at his brother. He didn't seem to be bothered by it. If anything he seemed to puff his chest out a little bit as if to say he was proud that he did a good job with something. "Why don't you guys have a seat", I say as we begin to move over to make room.
"Do you mind if my brother sits on the other side of you?", Jacob asks.
"Of course not!" I slide out of the booth as John slides in next to Toni and once he was settled I sat back down.
The conversation was everything! Everyone was getting along making small talk and jokes here and there. The drinks were flowing, and eventually we had to order another round of food as well. We had stayed so long I was a little surprised we weren't asked to leave. From my understanding during brunch they had a strict 2 hour time limit for tables unless approved beforehand. At this point we hadn't realized we had been there that long and was just going with the flow.
The only weird thing was that BOTH brothers were flirting with me HARD. I am talking full blown pedal to the metal flirting. At one point Toni made the joke, "If I didn't know any better I would think that you both were going after my friend.". She was obviously joking and laughed really hard afterwards. Me and Ash joined her in the laughter as the alcohol was making us super giggly. You would have thought we were at a comedy show the way we kept laughing the whole time.

"That's very precipitative of you.", Jacob states with a straight face.
"This actually makes this a little easier for us.", John added while finishing his tequila shot.
"What do mean?", I ask slightly sobering up to make sure I was hearing them right.
"It's probably something we should discuss in more detail when you are sober. But in short, me and my brother are both interested in you and would love it if you gave us a chance." You know for a minute there I thought I had completely hallucinated what Jacob said because he stated it so matter of fact and with a straight face. But the look on Toni's and Ash's face let me know that I was not tripping and I had heard him correctly.
"Wwwhat do you mean? Like both of you date me at the same time?" I attempt to clarify with an are you crazy look on my face. I turn my head to my left as John aloofly answers my question, "Yes, I know it may seem a little weird for some, but me and my brother tend to share instead of argue when we want the same thing. This includes pretty much everything in life. If it can't be given in twos we found it easier to just share. Our dating life is no different."
Now don't get me wrong I had an idea that they weren't human and I also had an idea of how magic born got down. They were really practical and took work smarter and not harder to the extreme. However, that does not make this declaration from a complete stranger any less shocking. Yea we talked a little bit about ourselves, but just mundane stuff. Where you from? What line of work are you in? How is your visit going? You know things like that, definitely not in detail, and definitely not enough to be considering dating. The high pitch hyaena laughter coming from Ash and Toni brought me out of my stupor.

"You have got to be shitting me?", Toni squeeze out in between fits of laughter.
"This is like too perfect.", Ash chimes in while also laughing herself to tears.
"Stop it!", I scream/whisper to them while leaning over John in order to swat at Toni (the closest). John and Jacob kind of just stay quiet and look between us like, Can we get in on the joke here? I immediately begin to blush and feel sweat pouring from my underarms and forehead.
"Is there something we should know?", Jacob asks no longer being able to handle the fits of laughter and my embarrassing slight head banging on the table in silence any more.
"Why don't you do the honors Tally?", Toni says as she finally somewhat calms down.
I lift my head to look at the two confused fae ready to confess my embarrassment before Ash could get a chance to beat me to it. "It's nothin' to do with you two specifically. It's just that yesterday we were talking about different types of relationships. And I was going on a rant about it being taboo for women to date multiple men like brother husbands, but the opposite was perfectly fine with society. I then went on to say I wouldn't mind trying out that type of dynamic.", I rush this out at super sonic speed and surprisingly the two of them caught every word. They both give this Ohhhh kind of look and proceed to burst into a small fit of laughter as well. I just continue to sit there and take the laughter and embarrassment since I did bring it on myself. Also let's keep in mind that we are all way passed tipsy and we know alcohol makes everything easier to digest.
Once everyone calms down, "Well that's perfect then right?", John ask once the table settles down.
"I mean, it sounds like they are giving you a golden opportunity to see if this is something you would like.", Toni teased half seriously.
"I mean it wouldn't hurt to see.", Ash added in with her support.
Now I don't want you to be confused. They were not coercing me to do this against my will. This was their way of letting me know that they supported whatever decision I wanted to make. Jacob being the best mood reader helped alleviate some pressure from me. "How about this, we are in town for the next two months to handle some business and we won't be working the entire time. So why don't you get to know us and see if this is even something you would like to entertain? No pressure or guarantees." In all honestly I was definitely down. I just had to play hard to get because you know you can't make it THAT easy.
So I took the olive branch without a second thought. "Yeah, let's do that. We are actually getting ready to leave so how about I exchange numbers with you guys and we can go from there?" I attempt to say this kind of shy and slow. Trying very hard not to show my true intentions.
"Of course.", both brothers say together. We exchange numbers and proceed to ask for the check. The brothers of course refused to let us look or pick up the tab, and they walk us out to our cab.
