  Pinching his side, he chuckles and hugs me harder. Literally having my air supply cut off by a hard chest, I act on instinct. Given no other choice, I bite his nipple. Hard.

  Dave yelps and jumps away from me, looking miffed but still grinning, “That hurt, bitchflaps!”

  Placing a hand on my hip and breathing heavily, I screech, “I was almost suffocated by man-boob!”

  Dave gasps, “Those boobs are muscular, fabulous pecs, ho!”

  Unable to stop myself from laughing at his offended expression, I ask warily, while running a hand down my face, “Why’d you call a girls night? What’s up?”

  He smiles like a goddamn loon. “All in good time. Nikki needs to be here for this.”

  Rolling my eyes, I turn and walk into the kitchen, making sure to have Cocoa à la Lexi ready for whatever news my friend is going to tell us.

  Placing the cocoa on a tray, I walk it over to my coffee table just as the front door to my unit opens. Looking up, I find a much too happy Nikki strolling in with a container.

  A container full of...

  “Double choc, peanut butter niknaks?” I almost screech. “You made double choc, peanut butter niknaks?”

  Taking in her grin, I bounce on the spot in excitement. Those niknaks are the shit.

  “What’s the occasion?” I ask from her side, reaching into the container. Slapping my hand away, she chuckles at my forlorn expression and utters, “All in good time, honey.”

  When Dave strolls into the living area dressed in light grey sweat sans tee, towel drying his hair, he takes one look at Nikki and grins cockily, “I’m so glad you’re here!”

  She sends him an equally winning smile and lays on the sweetness a little too thick. “Oh, sweetie, I missed you too! Come have a niknak.”

  Dave spies the niknaks. His face pulls into a frown. Almost asking himself, he mutters, “Why do we have niknaks today?”

  Nikki motions for us both to sit and says, “No. You go first! Tell us your big news!”

  Dave, looking like a child being told he is allowed to jump on the bouncy castle, sits and starts, “Whelp. I know we had a little competition going on the other night with who would nail Happy…” Holy shit, this is news to me! My eyes widen in shock as he continues, “…so I hope there’s no hard feelings, sweet cheeks.”

  Nikki’s eyes narrow dangerously. “What do you mean?”

  Reaching for his cocoa, he sips then smirks into his mug. “I won.”

  Nikki pulls the cocoa out of his hands and Dave glares at her, “Hey, it’s no big deal. He’s just into guy—”

  But she cuts him off with an abrupt, “When? When did you fuck him?”

  Dave clears his throat, “Well, technically, he fucked me. And the event occurred last night.”

  Well. This is awkward. I wish the ground would swallow me up.

  A small smile breaks out on Nikki’s face and I’m not sure what to make of it. It’s almost like the Mona Lisa smile. I narrow my eyes while searching her face. She’s hiding something.

  Dave blinks a moment before he blurts out, “Well, this sucks. I thought I’d feel all triumphant, but now I just feel like poo on a shoe! Thanks, Nikki. Thanks a lot,” then shoves not one, but two niknaks into his mouth in an attempt to show his current state of depression.

  My wide eyes drift from Nikki to Dave, while trying to blend into the background like a chameleon.

  I read somewhere that they can smell fear. Be still and impersonate a leaf.

  That’s when Nikki picks up a niknak and nibbles on it. With a sigh, she looks upset as she tells Dave, “Don’t sweat it, babe. But you’re wrong.”

  Still nibbling her treat, Dave looks confused as he asks her, “What do you mean I’m wrong?”

  Shoving the niknak into her mouth, she replies a garbled, “Oo didit in. I id.”

  Dave and I look at each other, unable to decipher her food-talk. Dave shrugs. “Yeah, I didn’t quite catch that.”

  Taking her time chewing, she finally swallows, stands, and points at Dave, shouting, “You didn’t win! I did!”

  Poor Dave. His level of confusion just went from I don’t get it to I’m special.

  He mutters, “What? Whe—?” Gasping, he stands, points right back at Nikki, and yells, “Extra-long bathroom break at the masque!” Narrowing his eyes accusingly, he shakes his finger in her face. “There was no line, was there? You were getting porked! By the hottie!”

  I can only watch in surprise as Nikki curtsies and announces, “Best fifteen minutes I ever spent in a bathroom.”

  Unable to stand being a mere spectator any longer, I also stand and holler, “Who are you people and what have you done with my best friends?”

  Nikki and Dave look shocked at my outburst before they look at each other and burst into laughter.

  Dave moves to stand by Nikki, wrapping an arm around her waist. “Honey, this isn’t news. We do stuff like this all the time. You know? Playing who can get the guy.”

  Nikki leans into Dave and nods, “Yeah. He’s right. Not the first time. Won’t be the last, either.”

  I’m dumbstruck. Mouth gaping, I clarify, “So neither of you are pissed at each other? You don’t care that you’ve slept with the same guy?”

  Nikki scoffs, “No way. It’s all just for fun. We haven’t done it in a long time. Not since Dave and Phil were together, so it was overdue.”

  Dave chuckles, “Yeah, we’ve even done three in a bed—” Nikki’s eyes widen as she elbows Dave in the ribs. He scowls at her, “Ow! What the hell was that for?”

  My jaw hits the floor.

  No. Effing. Way.

  Leaning forward, I whisper-hiss, “You guys have done threesomes together?”

  Dave’s eyes narrow at my outburst. He quickly realizes why Nikki elbowed him to keep his mouth shut. Slowly walking towards me, his eyes watch me carefully as he says, “Yes, baby, we have.”

  I’m a little miffed that I didn’t know this. Best friends tell each other things like this. When he spots my obvious hurt, he wraps me up in a hug. “It’s got nothing to do with how we feel about you, babe. We were both just in places where we didn’t want you to judge us for what we like. I’m not saying you would’ve done that, but the possibility was enough to make us keep it to ourselves. We love you.”

  Taking a moment to ponder what he just said, I wrap my arms around his waist and squeeze him tightly. Arms come around me from the back and Nikki kisses my hair. “We do love you, Lex. Thinking you wouldn’t get it or think we were weird was scary as fuck. Do you think we’re weird?”

  God, are they right? Am I judgey? I thought I was pretty open-minded, but my initial reaction shows that’s not entirely true.

  If they only knew about the things Twitch likes to do to you…

  Sweet lord in heaven. Here I am, silently judging them when I’ve done the same thing. I haven’t told either of them the extent of my sexual relationship with Twitch; all I’ve told them is he likes it rough. They know nothing of his need for constant control, or the belt…

  Sigh.

  The belt. I love the belt.

  Swallowing hard, I realize I’m not unlike them. And now that I’ve had a moment to gather myself, I tell them both, “No! I don’t think you’re weird, guys. It was just a shock. I guess I felt left out a little. So if you want to look at it like that…I’m the weird one!”

  Group-hugging a little while longer, we release each other and spend most of the night chatting and eating niknaks. Around eleven, my friends leave. Waving them off, I shut the door behind me and make my way down the hall to my room.

  As soon as the door opens, my heart skips a beat.

  Smiling a small smile, I listen to the footsteps as they make the slow decent towards me. Once my unexpected visitor reaches my back, his arms wrap around my waist, pulling me into him. Reaching back, I stroke his hair gently and say quietly, “Michael. He’s okay?”

  Twitch sighs, “Been waiting most of the fuckin’ night for your friends t
o leave, so I don’t really wanna talk right now, Angel.”

  He’s been waiting? Waiting patiently like a gentleman? Whoa. That is big. No, it’s huge.

  Turning in his arms, I look up at him. With the lights off in my room, an angelic glow provided by the kitchen light in the distance covers his face. “You waited?”

  His brow furrows in thought, as if he hadn’t even considered that fact. “Yeah. I guess I did.”

  And I can’t stop myself. Reaching up, I cup his cheeks and pull him down to me. Our lips connect. His arms tighten around my waist, but his lips don’t respond to mine. “Kiss me,” I beg on a whisper.

  He whispers back against my lips, “Naw. I like when you kiss me.”

  Smiling against his mouth, I feel his returning smile and my heart swells.

  Something is different about him tonight. There’s something more to him this time.

  Something warm.

  His arms loosen, his hands slide down my hips, and he slowly cups my ass, squeezing. Hooking his thumbs into my sweatpants, he pushes them down, along with my panties. My most sensitive place throbs and I flood.

  Walking me back to my bed, he pushes me, and I land with a bounce on my back. Looking me in the eye, he states, “You move, I stop.” Lowering his face to my already-clenching core, he says, “Be vocal. I like to hear you.”

  Draping my legs over his shoulders and back, he kneels on the floor at the edge of my bed and takes a long, hot swipe of my pussy. Electricity flows through my veins. My body trembles as I let out a soft sigh. He licks twice more before he utters, “Never tasted anything like you before. Never had a pussy that tasted sweet.” Flattening his tongue, he laps at my entry over and over and over again before saying, “If I could eat your pussy all day, every day, I’d fuckin’ find a way to make it my job.”

  His words, although vulgar, are the sweetest things I’ve heard come out of his mouth since I’ve known him. Reaching up between my legs, I run my fingers through his hair, and his licking turns to sucking. My hips jerk involuntarily, pushing myself deeper into his face.

  I moan loudly. He growls and sucks in perfect rhythm.

  My eyes roll back when he flicks my clit with his tongue. My breathing turns heavy, and my thighs clench around his head.

  “Do not come, Lexi.”

  Oh, you motherf—…frack you!

  I’m so close I can taste it. Barely above a whisper, I chant, “Please, please, please.”

  With one final swipe of his tongue, he stands. And I want to kick him for teasing me. So I do.

  I kick out at his hip, and when my foot taps him, he looks down at his hip with a frown, then back up at me. And suddenly, my annoyance is replaced with concern. All I can think is, “Oh damn. I’m in trouble.”

  With a growl, he throws himself onto me and I squeal. His arms wrap around me and he flips us so I’m on top of him. I want to cry. I know he has anger issues and I provoked him. What the hell is wrong with me? My heart races. I’m petrified. Then I feel something that makes me go from worried to mad in one second flat.

  “What are you laughing at?” I ask defiantly.

  Straddling his lap, I push on his chest and he laughs harder. “It’s not funny, Twitch! I could’ve hurt you!”

  His laughter borderlines hysterical. Crossing my arms over my chest, I glare at him and wait til he gets his laughter under control. When he breathes deeply and smiles up at me, my anger melts away. Pushing my hair behind my ear, he says, “Today was a bad day. So I come here to unwind, spend some time with my mouth on you, wanting your mouth on me. I didn’t come here expecting to laugh like that. I haven’t laughed like that since I was a teenager. And most of that type of laughter when I was a teen was because I was high as a fucking kite.”

  That makes me sad.

  When he eyes my gloomy face, he smiles harder, “Fuckin’ funny.”

  His eyes darken suddenly, and he sits up so we’re chest-to-chest. “Don’t think I forgot about your temper tantrum.” Wrapping one arm around my back, his free hand slides down to my bare ass and squeezes hard enough to make me wince. Starting at my neck, he kisses a trail up my jaw, to my cheek, then finally at the corner of my lips. “Kiss me, Angel.”

  My breathing heavy, my eyes hooded, I answer on a hoarse whisper, “Okay, baby.”

  Brushing his lips over mine, I tilt my head slightly and lean into him. The kiss is slow but deep, and when his lips close over mine, I realize he’s actually kissing me back this time. His hand kneading my ass, I fall into a dream-like state. A dream-like state that doesn’t last long.

  Thwack!

  Crying out into his mouth, he kisses me harder as my ass cheek goes numb a second before it throbs.

  Thwack!

  Whimpering, my face contorts in pain. His hand caresses the throbbing area, and suddenly my brain interrupts the pain broadcast, thinking, “Whoa. Is that meant to feel nice?”

  Thwack

  Harder than the first two, I pull away from his mouth, and tilting my head back, I cry out. My eyes widen a moment. Wetness forms between my legs.

  Thwack!

  My mouth forms an O in a silent scream. Our eyes meet, neither of us giving anything away. His hand runs over the sore, hot flesh before trailing low, lower to touch the puckered flesh. I tense. His fingers linger there a moment before he uses a fingertip to test the state of my arousal.

  My cheeks heat. The ones on my face.

  Normal people don’t get off on stuff like this.

  Twitch runs his fingertip up and down my wet and warm flesh. His eyes flash a moment, then darken, and he shuts them on a groan, “You need to sit on my cock.”

  Rolling us both to the side, he sets me down a moment before frantically undoing his belt and removing his slacks, shirt, and suspenders in record time. Standing in front of me, he strokes his thick, long cock; the silver balls twinkle in the subdued light. Lying next to me, he continues to stroke his cock. Turning, he mutters, “Ride me.”

  He doesn’t need to ask me a second time. Climbing on all fours, I put one leg over and mount him. We’re both ready. There’s no need to waste time. Reaching behind me, I hold his cock up, line him up with my entrance and slowly sit, allowing the head of him into me.

  Giving myself a moment to adjust, I place both hands on his chest, looking down at him as he grips my hips. He watches me through lust-hooded eyes. And suddenly, an unexpected wave of emotion passes through me. Reaching up, I stroke the inked thirteen on the apple of his cheek. I feel scarred flesh under the tattoo.

  You wouldn’t guess that thirteen is hiding a scar just from looking.

  Shaking my head and closing my eyes, I pull my hand away. A tight grip on my wrist stops me, bringing my hand back to his cheek. He leans into my touch, almost like a cat. Turning his head, he kisses the inside of my wrist. And my throat clogs.

  Do not fall in love with him!

  Yeah. That would be all sorts of fucked up.

  Needing the distraction from this heavy moment, I seat myself further down onto him, further still, until my ass meets his crotch. Feeling full and hot, my eyes flutter. He feels amazing.

  Looking up at him, his brow furrows in what looks to be confusion.

  Reaching up, he joins my hands with his, linking our fingers, and rests the backs of his hands on the bed by his head.

  This is becoming too much. My throat thickens to the point where I can’t swallow.

  He’s giving me control.

  A hoarse whisper escapes me, “Don’t play games with me.”

  Rather than answering me, he leans his face up and my chest aches. Leaning down, my lips connect with his in a sweet and gentle kiss. Against my lips, he mumbles, “Perfect.”

  Shit. This is intense.

  Deepening our kiss, I begin a rocking motion and swallow his deep groan. Slow and steady, up and down, he allows me complete control over what’s happening here. We rock together, kissing, touching, connecting in a way I never thought possible with a man like him. Pull
ing back slightly, I kiss his lips softly. Pressing whispers of kisses all over his face. His cheeks, his eyes, his nose, then finally back to his soft full lips, all the while grinding deeply onto him.

  Lifting myself to a sitting position, I gasp as I find the spot. You know? That spot.

  His eyes trained on me, he watches me come closer and closer to my release. I tighten around him and I’m there. My spine tingles; closing my eyes, white spots flash before me as I moan. Suddenly, my eyes snap open and I look down at him, holding back my release. His mouth parted, he nods, giving me what I need.

  Permission.

  My heart races. Tilting my head back, I moan long and low as the first contraction grips him tightly. Letting go of me, his hands span my hips. He holds me firmly, thrusting up into me. My core clenches around him and ecstasy flows through me.

  The very last of my contractions subsides. I feel his cock swell inside of me. Pulling my hips down hard, my eyes meet his as he silently goes through his release, stomach clenching, never taking his soft brown eyes off mine.

  Panting fills my room. Neither one of us makes an effort to disconnect. The thought of not having him inside of me right now makes my stomach dip in anxiety. As if he senses this, he rolls us over so I lie on my back. Never leaving my body, he rests his forehead in the crook of my neck, kissing my collarbone, and my body relaxes completely.

  Wrapping my arms around him, I grip the back of his neck with one hand, the other stroking his hair. My arms wrap around Twitch, and his unconsciously squeeze me tightly.

  I could do this forever.

  That was my last thought before I fell asleep.

  Making my way into work, I feel the eyes of people beaming at me like lasers, clearly confused at the obvious spring in my step.

  “Good morning everyone,” I greet with a sly smile on my face. I’m pretty darn sure the thought on my co-workers minds is, “Well, shit. Somebody got the business.”
