“I dunno. In case you want any advice?”
“I guess, but…” He paused, clearly thinking through what he wanted to say. “I don’t think I want to tell them yet. Not before we’ve, er, talked about… whatever this is.”
“Yeah. Yeah, I guess that would be good.” It was my turn to blush now, but more because I was embarrassed I hadn’t thought about that. One vague morning-after conversation and suddenly I was acting like we had all our ducks in a row.
We barely even had any ducks to begin with!
“Do you think we should talk to Aiden?” I asked. Since he was here, we might as well talk about it. Otherwise, we’d never get around to it. Past experience told us that.
Hunter nodded. “I think so. But I guess, with everything going on, do you think it would be too much right now? I don’t want to overwhelm him.”
“Good point.” I sighed, thinking back to how suspicious he’d seemed of affection. He’d clearly thought we wanted something from him and hadn’t expected us to want to take care of him just because. But despite his cagey, cautious attitude, he was obviously trying. And that was all any of us could do.
“And maybe we should talk about what we want,” Hunter continued, voice soft as his eyes drifted to mine. “Together, and with Aiden.”
“Yeah… yeah, we should do that too. Probably before we talk to Aiden. But, er, we want it to be both of us, right? Together, with him.”
“That’s what I want. What about you?”
The tightness in my chest I’d barely noticed dissolved instantly, like a valve had opened and released the pressure. I hadn’t realised how much I needed to hear it said out loud. To know we wanted the same thing. I smiled, a little laugh of delight slipping from my lips. “Yes. Yes, I want that too.”
Hunter tackled me to the bed, pinning me down and kissing me fiercely, joy radiating out of him as his tongue pressed intomy mouth. I groaned, losing myself to his kisses and melting into the mattress underneath him. It would be so easy to stay here for hours. Nobody would miss us.
“This looks fun,” Aiden said, his amused voice coming from the bedroom door. Hunter and I broke apart slowly, turning our heads to look at him. Hunter was still lying across my chest with his hands on either side of my shoulders, caging me underneath him.
“You should join us.” I held my hand out and wiggled my fingers, shooting him a teasing grin. “I want to taste you.”
“Tempting as that sounds, you two have training this morning. And if you’re late, people will have questions.”
“Do you need to get going? Sneak back in before Jonny notices you’re missing?” Hunter asked as he pushed himself onto his knees beside me, making the mattress squeak.
Aiden shrugged, folding his arms across his chest and smirking playfully as he leant against the doorframe. “Nah, not if he thinks I’m still in bed. Hopefully, he’ll leave me to sleep. After all, I had a stressful day yesterday.”
“And a late night,” I said. I pushed myself into a sitting position and stretched. The desire to get up and go to work was slipping further and further down my priorities. Normally, I’d never consider putting anything above rugby, but maybe, just this once, it would be okay.
“Exactly,” Aiden said. He tapped the doorframe with one hand, making me jump. “Come on, up you get. I’m not going to be the reason you’re late. Get your arses moving.”
Hunter sighed and climbed off the edge of the bed, stretching as best he could without hitting the ceiling. “I need a shower. I’ve got cum on my chest.”
“I don’t think anyone will notice,” I said, finally giving in to the inevitable and throwing my legs over the edge of the bed.
“Yeah, butI’llknow and I won’t be able to concentrate. Plus it might rub.” He walked to the bedroom door, bending down to kiss Aiden before sliding past him. I watched the two of them with interest, my cock stirring in the loose boxers I’d thrown on at some point before we fell asleep.
I didn’t think I’d ever get tired of seeing them together, and I was starting to hope I’d get to keep doing it for a long time. There was never any jealousy, not really. Not the sort of jealousy other guys talked about feeling when they saw someone else with their partner. The only things I ever felt were lust and adoration, and maybe a tiny, needy flicker of want because I didn’t like being left out.
Maybe it was because I considered them both mine?
Hunter might have been around for a lot longer, but neither of us would ever have considered doing anything like this without a push from Aiden. He was the one who’d brought us together, who’d encouraged us to explore our feelings for each other, and to ask for what we’d always wanted but been too afraid to voice.
I couldn’t imagine doing this without him. Hunter and I needed Aiden as much as we needed each other, and I hoped we could make Aiden understand that. He wasn’t an afterthought or a second choice; he was the entire reason we were considering this. And if Aiden didn’t want us, it would break my heart.
As Hunter headed for the shower, Aiden turned to look at me, a curious smile curling his mouth as he studied me. “What?” he said.
“Nothing. Just thinking how hot you two look together. And how I really don’t wanna get up.”
“Sorry, I should’ve made you go to bed earlier.”
“Fuck no! I’d rather be tired than horny.”
