Duncan nodded, grinning at my euphemism. "Correct."

"Bobby caught Tabitha and told her to tell me to get my own stuff," Andrew said with a laugh.

"Man, you need to get your girl situation figured out," I said with a glare at Duncan. "What you're doing is majorly messed up."

Duncan waved me away. "Please. They both know that we're not exclusive. They just don't know that I'm spending time with both of them."

I rolled my eyes. "It's still messed up."
