“I love you,” I can’t help but whisper against her lips.
“I love you, too,” she whispers back, her voice all sleepy and raspy.
She’s so perfect. She’s everything. I’ve been obsessed with her for years now, but it pales in comparison to the way I love her now.
Riley hums beneath us, and I turn to see he’s watchingmeintently. Sensing what I need before I do. Collins taps my biceps, and I lift, helping her up.
“I’m going to start the shower.” She gingerly untangles herself from between us and scoots off the bed, turning to where I’m now kneeling between Riley’s legs. “Join me in a minute?”
“Fuck yeah,”
“Of course,” we both answer at the same time, and she smiles, sauntering towards the bathroom. Riley and I both keep our eyes locked onto her tiny frame until she disappears behind the door.
I turn to the man beneath me, lowering myself until my hips part his thighs and our cocks press together. My forearms rest on either side of his head. This is the first time we’ve ever been in this position, and I hope like hell it’s not the last. I’d love to sink my cock into Riley’s tight ass someday, if and when he’s ever ready for it.
“You good down there?” I tease, and he just nods, smiling sleepily at me. I press more of my weight into him so I can reach his lips. I have this borderline feral need to claim him, too.
The moment my lips meet his, my mind feels wholly at ease. Riley is a lovable person who has only ever craved just that. I’ve loved him from the moment I met him, but the way I feel about him now is a completely different kind of love.
Just like Collins, this is all-consuming…two bricks on the throttle and no brakes in sight.
My chest aches with the need to finally spit out the words I’ve been withholding from saying out loud.
Breaking the kiss, I pull back until I meet his eyes. The way he looks at me could bring me to my knees if I weren’t already lying on top of him.
“I love you,” I say, my voice thick with emotion. Saying it just feelsright.Because I do love him. Wholly. Completely. And he deserves to hear the words.
Riley looks completely gobsmacked by my admission, though. His eyes widen, lips parting in surprise.
I smile, chuckling softly. “What? It’s nothing but the truth here.” I nip at his bottom lip, and he whimpers, making my cock twitch between us. “You’re my boy, and you’ve been mine from the moment I brought you home. Now you’re mine in a wholenew way, and the love I harbored for you has shifted. Changed into something new. Somethingright.”
Tears build against his dark lashes, and I wipe the first one away with my thumb before it can meet his sweaty hairline.
“You’re so easy to love.”
He looks like he wants to argue, but I cut off his line of thought by kissing him again. My tongue brushes his lips, and he opens eagerly for me. He consumes me. Riley is just as much a weakness to me as Collins is. He just fits so seamlessly and perfectly into my life that there was never a question about who he belonged to.
The moment our lips part, it’s my turn to be rendered speechless when he whispers against me, “I love you, too.”
I drop my forehead against his. “Fuck, Riley.”
In the back of my mind, I already knew this, but holy fuck, does it feel so damn good to hear the words fall from his lips. Like admitting it was as easy as breathing to him.
But he keeps going, and I’m all too willing to listen. “I’m not sure when it all started to shift for me, and I honestly didn’t think I’d ever be capable of falling in love with more than one person.” He swallows thickly, working through his thoughts. “It feels…normal. Better than normal, actually. It feels like…it’s supposed to be this way.”
“That’s because it is,” I say, smiling, “the three of us were inevitable. Falling in love was just another step. Though if the two of us had only remained friends, that would’ve been okay, too. “Like I said.” I kiss the tip of his nose, then push myself to a kneeling position. “You’re my boy. I need you in my life anyway I can get you.”
I look down to see our cum-slicked cocks lying side by side, and I can’t help but grab both of them in my hand.
“Shit,” Riley hisses, and I love the way his chest flushes when I touch him.
“You have to admit this is a nice bonus.” I lazily stroke our lengths together.
“Mmm.” He hums as he squirms beneath me, “but I’m too fucking sensitive right now, and I’m afraid my dick might fall off if I come again so soon.”
At that, I really laugh and push off the bed, then help him up. He’s coming out of his shy little shell that’s held him back all these years, and it’s a damned beautiful thing.
“Come on,” I hedge, lacing his fingers through mine and pulling him towards the bathroom. “Let’s get cleaned up and go for a late night ice cream run. I’m fucking starving.”
