"Nobody's talking... they're just on their phones." Mackie sighed. "Millennials, I tell ya."

Phoenix
They're talking about us 😭 Start a conversation loser.

Thomas 👽⚔️
Why do I have to 😑

Phoenix
Because we're "in love"
Don't make me end this love triangle by breaking up with your ass

After reading Phoenix's message, Tom tucked his phone in his pocket. Phoenix followed suit and did the same.

"I had the strangest interview the other day" Tom spoke. "They asked me do FMK with the Chrises."

"What's FMK?" Chris asked curiously.

"And who are the Chrises?" Mackie added, jokingly.

"Oh that's easy." Phoenix ignored. "What'd you say?"

"So easy." Tom agreed. "But I wanna hear your answer first."

"Fuck Hemsworth. Marry Pratt. Kill Evans." She answered instantaneously.

Chris couldn't contain his laugh after hearing Phoenix's answer. "Really?"

"That's messed up." Mackie shook his head.

"I'm sorry!" Phoenix apologized. "I've already- we've already... yanno so hypothetically speaking, I'd want to..."

"Fuck someone new." Mackie finished for her. "Right."

"But you haven't married me." Chris brought up. "You would automatically just kill me?"

"Yes." She answered, simply. "Yes I would, Evans."

"You're not missing anything. She doesn't wanna get married anyways, partna." Mackie reminded. "What was your answer Tom?"

"Same as Phoenix." He replied. "Fuck Hemsworth. Marry Pratt. Kill Evans."

"I swear we're soulmates." Phoenix removed her head from Chris's lap so she could high-five Tom. "We have the same mind."

"Oh God. Everyone hates me." Chris whined, making his voice 2 pitches higher. "I should just leave and never come back."

Phoenix patted his back gently. "He has to be somebody's favorite Chris, right? Tom?"

"I got Pratt." He answered. "Mackie?"

"I take Evans everyday."

"Oh good." Phoenix let out a sigh of relief. "I didn't want to have to change my answer out of sympathy."

"I'm starting to think you're using me for my money." Chris joked.

"Oh I am. That's why I killed you." She teased. "I'd marry you just to kill you later down the line and keep that life insurance money. Tom, and I would live off of your fortune."

"Yup." Tom nodded. "Sorry man."

"Yeah, I can see that happening." Mackie said. "They're playing you Chris."

"We're DEFINITELY playing you, Chris." Phoenix said sarcastically. "But who would you fuck, marry, and kill though?"

"Hmm..." Chris looked up at the ceiling, trying to decide the best way to answer. Phoenix had a feeling he was going to give the exact same answer she and Tom did, just in a different order. "Well let's start with kill myself... Marry Pratt. Fuck Hemsworth."

"Even you would kill you!" Phoenix laughed at the irony. "That means you, me, and Tom are a trio of soulmates."

"I love that your criteria for your soulmate is based on my murder." Chris spoke.

"Why would you kill yourself man?" Mackie frowned. "Kill Pratt. Fuck yourself. Marry Hemsworth."

"Oh I couldn't kill Pratt or Hemmy. They're better than me."

"How are you so modest all the time?" Phoenix rolled her eyes.

"Fuck, marry, kill: this room edition, excluding yourself." Tom said.

"So my choices are 2 dudes and a minor?" Mackie shook his head. "I'll pass."

"Fuck Chris. Marry Tom. Kill Mackie." Phoenix answered as quickly as she had earlier. "Also, I'm 22. Definitely not a minor.

"She won't even marry you hypothetically." Mackie mumbled.

"You go now, Tom." Phoenix urged.

"Fuck Chris. Marry Phoenix. Kill Mackie." He gave his answer. "Sorry Mackie. Chris?"

"Fuck Phoenix. Marry Phoenix. Kill whoever's left." Chris answered.

With a smile, Phoenix ran a hand through Chris's hair, slicking back the strand that was slightly out of place. She pressed her forehead against his before resting her hands behind his neck. "Can I change my answer?"

"Go for it honeybee." He spoke while moving his fingers down her back.

"Fuck Chris. Marry Chris AND Tom. Kill Mackie." She corrected. Chris laughed quietly before pressing his lips onto hers. After a moment, he introduced his tongue into Phoenix's mouth, completely forgetting about the two men that sat across from them.

"We're still here..." Tom coughed, making his discomfort obvious. Knowing Phoenix and Chris were together and actually seeing it with his own eyes were two totally different things. Seeing the pair interact in such a physically affectionate way for the first time made everything real to him. He still had a bit of confusion about his feelings for her but at the end of the day, Phoenix's happiness was of upmost importance to him, above all else. If Chris was the man that made her the happiest, he'd support it wholeheartedly. He knew Chris would treat her exceptionally well but it'd just take a bit of getting used to before he could handle the PDA.

"You're gonna like... get it." Phoenix whispered against Chris's lips before pulling away. She made sure to speak so quietly that Tom and Mackie couldn't hear what she said. However, Chris's enthused expression gave it away.

Even after 2 weeks, the thought of being intimate with Phoenix brought Chris excitement. She was a breath of fresh air. It had been so long since he had experience consistent love making that was so passionate every time that he never wanted it to end. Phoenix was such a bundle of energy, most likely because of her young age and stamina, and it took Chris a couple of tries just to keep up and adjust to her pace. Being with her sent him to a whole nother place and he was ready to get back to it.

"That's our cue." Mackie stood up after patting Tom's leg. "We'll show ourselves out."

Chris contemplated being gracious and urging them to stay and hangout but the truth of the matter was that he just wanted to be alone with Phoenix for the rest of the night and she wanted the exact same.

Tom avoided eye contact with both Chris and Phoenix as he followed Mackie to the door. Phoenix noticed the change in his aura and instantly felt bad. Every time she spoke about Chris, he seemed to tense up which is why she tended not to talk too much about her relationship to Tom anymore. She never wanted to make him uncomfortable.

The very second Chris heard the hotel door shut, he stripped Phoenix of her clothes, leaving nothing behind before taking off his own clothing.

Phoenix straddled him, hovering over his hips as he rested his hands on her waist. She leaned down to kiss him before sliding down his length.

Chris tilted his head back as pleasure filled his body. "I can do this all day."
