13b: Sexcathalons and Erototoxins

Ethan didn't answer my question until he got to his apartment complex parking lot. He threw his seatbelt off and leapt out of the car, coming around to my side as I sat staring at the windshield, contemplating what he'd said.

There's no way he meant... that.

He pulled my door open and slowly reached over me. His breath mingled with mine and the day-old stubble on his face scratched my cheek. Ethan's gaze shifted to my face as he pushed the button of my seatbelt and carefully pulled it away from me. I started to get out, but Ethan shook his head.

"Stay," he said, leaning against the passenger door.

Settling back into the seat, I finally asked him, "Are you going to answer me now?"

Exhaling, he nodded but didn't say anything right away as he examined me quizzically. "Like a relationship with you," he whispered. "That's what we were talking about all last night."

My lips parted. "What?" I asked, resisting the urge to shake my head and clear it.

"You heard me right," he said. He swallowed and ran a hand through his wind-rumpled hair. "I need to know how you feel about that, Cassie."

My mouth dropped open and I shrugged one shoulder, touching my chin to it as I looked at him. "How do you feel about it?" I asked.

My question was followed by another long silence. I bit my lip as I watched his expressions changing. It was like I was watching him in slow-mo and the array of emotions crossing his face had me worried.

"I-I don't know," he mumbled.

I dropped my gaze to my lap and clasped my hands together. My heart hurt at his answer even though I knew I should've expected it. Ethan couldn't help his sexual preference. He was gay through and through and...

"Relationships are complicated."

Okay.

That wasn't what I was expecting him to say.

"Relationships are complicated?" I repeated what Ethan said.

He took my hand. "I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought about this myself. I mean before Seth brought it up."

I gaped at him like a fish. "Really?"

Ethan rolled his eyes and lifted his arm. His finger popped me gently under the chin, making me close my mouth. "I had to. After you asked me to—"

"Stop pussy-footing around," I interrupted him. "Are you attracted to me?"

He tilted his head to the side and let loose a slow smile as he stared at me. "You're so pushy," he said softly.

I pleaded with him silently. I needed to know because what he was offering me—to belong to him and Seth and them to me in this way—seemed too good to be true and if he didn't say it out loud...

"Cassie, don't overthink this."

"How can I not? I want—" I stopped before I could spill the beans and turned in the passenger seat. I reached for him and pulled him between my legs, wrapping my arms around his waist tightly. My head pillowed against his muscular stomach muffling any further words as I hugged him close.

His hand dropped to the top of my head before sliding down to my shoulders and returning my tight hug. He didn't pull away, but he did lift my face so that I wasn't buried in the material of his white t-shirt. I settled my chin against him while looking up at him. His hands cupped the sides of my face and his thumbs caressed the curve of my cheekbones on either side.

"Cassie," he whispered. "You're so important to me. I think about the three of us being together and I do want it. I want it more than I thought I could ever possibly want it, but on the flip side, you're almost too important to me to do this. What if something goes wrong? I don't want to lose either of you."

I smiled and tears blurred my vision. "You'll never lose me. I can promise you that. I'm stuck to you like super-glue. If it doesn't work, we'll get over it but we'll always be friends, Ethan. I promise, even if I'm the hurt, lonely party in the end."

With a half-hearted grin, he knelt down so that we were eye-level to each other. "And if I end up the lonely party?"

My eyes softened. "Seth wouldn't choose me over you. You don't have to worry about that. He likes me, he doesn't love me."

Ethan chuckled. "You're a very easy person to love, Cassie."

"So are you, but a relationship between three people isn't about choosing one over the other. Obviously, we'll have to work it out. There'll be kinks—not the good kind—but that's what a relationship is about. This will just be new grounds for us," I said and licked my bottom lip as a new thought surfaced. "Society's against stuff like this, so I think we should keep it quiet until we find our own footing with each other too."

Ethan snorted. "No problem here. My family still don't know I'm gay, Cass."

"Okay, but your friends do," I said, but he shook his head and tried to talk. I covered his mouth with my hand. "They do know. They don't care, Ethan. It doesn't matter that you never said it outright to them, they know. They talked to me about it, and before you get butt-hurt they brought it to the table, not me. You know I'm a crap liar. They called me out. And I'm sure your dad knows too. It's your mother will have to work on, but after we've figured it out for ourselves."

"Why my mom?"

I scowled at him. "I know you've seen the big white wedding book, right?"

Ethan snorted. "Oh God, I forgot about that. I still don't know how she got those pictures of you."

I nodded, pursing my lips to the side. "I came to the conclusion a while ago that she stalked me."

"What?" he asked around a half-gasp, half-chuckle.

"Still does stalk me, she's taken up to stalking you too, now that you don't live with them anymore. Have you seen the new 'additions'?"

Ethan slowly shook his head, his eyebrows snapping together.

"Oh yeah, talk about crazy. I love your mom, but she's got some far-fetched ideas about us. I have no idea how she made our kids... must've been some kind of digital photo-shop deal."

"So we're not only married in this book but now we have a child?"

I held up four fingers, trying to keep a solemn face as I nodded.

"Four!" Ethan cried out. "She's nuts! I'm not having four kids."

"Who you tellin'? I'm the one that's gotta pop 'em out. I don't want four kids either."

Ethan shook his head in disbelief. "I don't know how Dad deals with her some days."

"That's the thing about love—so I hear—you're supposed to take the bad with the good. And I want us to be together. If you and Seth are willing to make this work with me then so am I."

Ethan's face shifted, became more serious, as he stared at me. "Are you sure about this?"

"Are you and Seth sure?"

Ethan nodded without hesitancy, "Yeah."

I couldn't hold it in anymore and I squealed with happiness, launching myself at him. I wrapped my arms around his neck, my legs around his lower back, and held on to him like I was on the Titanic and he was my life jacket. He laughed as he fell into the door, his arms coming around my back to hold me in place.

"I take it you're okay with it," Ethan said, still laughing.

Instead of saying I was okay with it, I pulled slightly away. I moved my hands to cup his face, letting him see the utter devotion I was going to have in this relationship to them both, and then I pulled him into a deep, passionate kiss that left us both breathless. When I pulled away, Ethan's eyes were fluttering open and his face was flushed.

"I'm more than okay with it. Now, let's go tell Seth."

Ethan turned with me, still holding me as he kicked his leg out to shut the passenger car door. The car beeped signaling Ethan had locked it and his shoes squeaked on the pavement as he swiveled around.

"Seth is already in bed waiting for us. He didn't have any doubt you'd say yes."

"He's so conceited," I said with an amused snort. "He's not really in bed waiting for us is he?"

Ethan nodded, "Said he'd be naked and waiting."

I bit my lip with anticipation, and the erotic image of white sheets slinking down his hips swamped me. "Mm, maybe you should walk faster," I said.

Ethan laughed again, but he knew I was serious. We were at the elevator in record time, but when the tan-colored sliding doors opened to reveal a woman, we both paused.

"Mom?"

Ethan's mother's eyes widened as she noticed the way Ethan was holding me, and she screamed, startling a yelp out of me. Ethan just rolled his eyes.

"Well," she said, after her impromptu screech of joy, "it's about time! Oh just wait until I tell your father!"

"Ma!" Ethan interrupted her.

She stepped forward and patted Ethan on his check then gave me a quick corner-of-the-mouth kiss. "Darling, I brought you some groceries. That handsome boy of yours, Seth, helped me put them away," she paused to fan her face, "I must've caught him just coming out of the shower because all he had was a towel around him when I walked in."

"Ma!" Ethan's face was lobster red and all I could do was shake my head in disbelief.

She frowned. "Let's not tell your father that part."

"Oh my God!" Ethan cried out mortified.

"Oh, don't be so dramatic, Ethan. Nothing happened! He's very handsome though. I think I understand the whole... what is it called?"

I snorted and shook my head. "Cougar, I think. Where an older woman goes after a younger man?" I asked, now biting my lip to keep the wide smile off my face as Ethan shot me a glare..

"That's it!"

"Cassie, please don't encourage her," Ethan said.

His mother dropped her hands to her hips. "Okay, okay, I'll stop," she said. "I'm so happy you too are getting together. Don't rush things and ruin it though. I have very specific plans for your wedding." She stopped and tapped a finger against the face of her watch. "Now look, I've got to run, but I want you three to come over for dinner sometime this next week. Okay? Promise!"

"We will," I answered for Ethan.

He gave me another tiny scowl but kissed his mother's cheek as she left and power walked towards her car. Ethan dropped his arms from around my waist, no longer holding me up. All that kept me in place was my arms and legs, which were wrapped around him.

"Get off," he grumbled.

I dropped a laughing kiss to the tip of his nose. "Don't pout. Seth and I will put you back in the mood."

"She was checking out my--I mean our--boyfriend. You aren't a little disgusted?"

"It's cute. Besides, she's so in love with your dad I'm surprised she even notices the opposite sex."

Ethan harrumphed and I wiggled against him, encouraging him to take a step forward into the elevator. "Why does it have to be Seth when she does notice though?" he asked, faking a gag.

"Oh stop!" I smacked his shoulder and then snorted as I thought about Seth and the little adventure he had. "Poor Seth," I said and chuckled.

Ethan nodded. "He's probably curled in a corner somewhere. Might have to get him back in the mood too," Ethan paused and wrapped his arms back around me, settling his lower hand against my ass and patting it. His already flushed face turned a brick red. "This is gonna take some getting used to."

"We'll get there... sooner than you think," I whispered against his cheek.

He nodded and pushed the elevator button to make the doors open again. When he walked us in, he tipped me towards the button panel and I tapped the one for the fifth floor.

"So," Ethan started, "are you up for it? I don't want you to think you have to right now. A lot has happened today, so we would understand..."

"Don't even!"

"I'm just saying I'm not sure you're ready to get both Seth and me back in the mood. I mean what we just went through was fairly traumatizing."

"Your mother is not traumatizing."

"Well, we'll ask Seth how much he appreciated her impromptu visit then."

I smirked and raised an eyebrow. "Ethan?"

"What?"

"Challenge accepted!"

14A: H-to-T

As it turned out, Seth wasn't as scarred as Ethan about the situation with his mother. In fact, Seth had wiggled his eyebrows and had mentioned 'MILF' a few times. It was all very amusing—teasing Ethan—but it wasn't long before things got heated.

"So we're going to do this?" Seth asked. "The relationship... and the sex?"

I nodded and offered a reassuring smile. "I think so. Ethan?"

Ethan bit his lip and exhaled through his nose. His shoulders dropped as his gaze switched between us. "Yes, we're going to do this," Ethan said.

It wasn't hot in Ethan's room, the cold breeze and rattle from his AC vent made it freezing in here, but my face was flushed and burning all the same. The intensity of our focus was that hot and after tonight my V's reign over my body would end.

I couldn't wait...

It showed when I started tearing my clothes off. There was no point in being subtle anymore. I flipped around to make sure Seth--he still had his towel on--and Ethan were stripping too. My hands paused over the metal button of my jean shorts as I watched Ethan's gaze linger over Seth. I bit my lip and peeked over at Seth to see him eyeing my half-naked body.

"Stop eyeballing and get nekkid!" I demanded, letting my shorts drop to the floor.

I stepped out of them and turned to crawl up the bed. When I turned around, settling my back against the headboard, I sent a pout over to Seth. "I'm tired of being in charge," I whispered and slowly licked my bottom lip before biting it. I parted my bent knees, exposing the damp satin blue underwear I still had on. "How 'bout some domination?"

Seth's jaw tightened in resolve and he let the towel he'd been wearing drop. I kept the pseudo-innocent, pleading look on my face, but it was a struggle not to giggle with excitement as I watched his hands form tight white fists at his sides.

"Maybe some handcuffs?" I suggested, lifting my arms up and matching my wrists up to the bars of the headboard.

"No!" Ethan's voice was hoarse as he interrupted Seth's descent onto the bed.

I frowned and lifted an eyebrow, curious at the urgency suddenly evident in his voice. "'No' what? Should Seth get that bullwhip out for you too? Are you going to be bad, Ethan?"

Something flashed in Ethan's eyes and I saw something I'd only ever seen aimed at Seth. Only this time the full experience was all for me. My mouth parted as I felt the warm liquid between my thighs gush against the soft satin underwear. I blinked and Ethan attacked. It was the only way to describe it as he leaped over me. Something had snapped in him... something I'd done.

My heart pounded in my chest as he flipped me onto my stomach and I let out a startled gasp that ended up being muffled by my face in the pillow. Ethan smacked my ass, causing me to squeal in surprise, but his hands never bounced back off, and he massaged my cheeks before he jerked the underwear down past my thighs.

"I'm your Dom, Cassie," Ethan whispered harshly, and he bent down to bite the now-exposed bare skin of my right ass cheek.

I let out a shaky, excited breath and turned my face from the pillow to glance over at Seth as Ethan continued his wanted assault on my backside. "I-I thought you were a Sub, Ethan," I managed.

"A sub to Seth," Ethan clarified. I felt him straddle my hips and settle his naked chest over my back.

"Um, I think I'll watch for now," Seth mumbled taking a step back.

I lifted my gaze and tsked my tongue in disappointment. "What? Why?" I asked and wiggled underneath Ethan.

Ethan's hands clamped down on my waist, holding me still, but the hungry, helpless groan he let out made me smile internally. Something had changed. I don't know what, but whatever it was Ethan was allowing himself to be attracted to me. He wanted me. I could feel it in the way he positioned me, the way he pulled my hips and propped my ass up a little in the air. I could feel it in the way his fingernails bit into my flesh from the tight grip he had on me, and I could hear it in the way he panted. The sound of his zipper sliding down made me bit my lip hard enough to cause tears to well in my eyes.

"Dom Ethan is a new experience for me," Seth answered, his eyes never straying away from his boyfriend. "I'm so turned on right now if I touch either of you I'll blow."

"My mouth is open," I said, letting my lips form on 'O' as I raised an eyebrow in invitation. Seth swore under his breath and shot me a heated, accusing glare, but shook his head and kept his distance.

"Do you want it this way?" Ethan asked as he pulled away. I could hear and then feel the material of his pants fall. This time, when he sat back down on top of me, his erection settled just between the surface of the crack of my ass.

I paused. I knew what he was asking. Did I want him to take my virginity doggy or missionary? Ethan wanted it this way. The attention he was lavishing on my rear-end made it obvious, but the idea of watching his face as we both experienced a first—my virginity lost and Ethan having sex with a girl—was too good to pass up.

His face softened as I turned onto my back beneath him. "Okay," he said with a nod. "Was I too rough?"

I shook my head. "I just wanna see your face the first time." I paused and frowned up at him. "I'm not being girly or romantic or..."

Ethan chuckled and cupped the side of my face, placing his thumb against my lips to shush me. "It would be okay if you were, but you don't have to explain. There's plenty of time for that other stuff. Next time though, don't crawl up the bed and wiggle your ass at me unless you want it rough."

I rolled my eyes, unable to keep the large cheesing smile from spreading over my face. "I had no idea you had such a passion for my ass, Ethan."

He shrugged. "Neither did I, but now that we all know my trigger with you, let's be careful when we use it."

I smirked up at him, unable to resist. "Why?"

Seth decided to speak up; his voice was just as raspy as it had been when Ethan had been sucking him off in the shower. "He was maybe a minute away from fucking you, Cass," Seth exhaled before he continued, "...and another minute away from letting his load off on your ass. We'll definitely use that later. Damn, we need that Red Room."

I frowned. "The Red Room of Pain? Like in 50 Shades? What? Are you guys saying you don't have one?"

Ethan snorted. "Funny."

Seth chuckled. "Nah, just a drawer full of toys... it's a tempting investment though. We'd call it the Red Room of Pleasure though. There will be no abusive torture marks marring those beautiful bodies. Whatdoya say, Baby? You could play with her ass all you want."

We all knew Ethan had the money to do whatever he wanted. He never took advantage of his inheritance, but the shaky breath Ethan let out and the dark, fascinated gaze he gave me sent chills throughout my body because he was seriously thinking about it. I knew then that my non-existent sex life was going to flourish so much. And the best part was that now I knew Ethan wanted me sexually and emotionally too.

"I like you wanting me like this, Ethan," I said, hoping my 'real' moment didn't put a damper on anything. "I thought I'd be okay without it... I mean having Seth do all the turning on with you so you could boink me." I lifted my hands and smoothed them down his pectorals. "The attractions not one-sided anymore."

Ethan tilted his head and smiled softly down at me, but it was Seth who spoke up. "Aw, Cass, the attraction was never one-sided between you two. Gotta say I'm fucking ecstatic that you both want me involved too. And speaking of fucking, will you two get started?"

Ethan settled between my legs and I shivered as the tip of his cock bumped against my pussy lips. "Only-" I panted "-if you come closer."

Seth pulled himself from the chair he'd settled in. "Wish granted."

Ethan's heavy breathing, as he switched between helping Seth torture me and kissing Seth himself, increased. My hands caressed up and down Ethan's sides, over the expanse of his back, and to his –now naked—ass cheeks.

Seth's mouth laid claim to my right side. He gave excited, appreciative moans every time his mouth engulfed my whole breast. The sound vibrations against my breast tickled my nipple and made my thighs clench, so every time my body responded to it, his finger would poke my side, occasionally causing a giggle to let loose. With his tongue, Seth attacked my collar bone. He switched between that and nuzzling his nose into my throat. I let out a breathless moan when I felt fingers pushing into me and circling around my clit.

Seth moaned and his teeth clamped down on my shoulder. "You are so tight," he mumbled against me, letting me know it was his fingers exploring me. He pulled out, leaving a small trail of wet goo clinging to my inner thighs. He brought his now glistening fingers to his mouth and sucked.

"Do you taste coconut?" Ethan asked suddenly.

Seth nodded. "Why do you taste like coconut, Cass?"

"Organic coconut oil baths," I said between pants for breath. It was strangely erotic seeing Seth taste me. "Good for the skin."

"Hmm, I happen to love coconut. If you don't get started Ethan I might just need some more of her," Seth said, his hazel-green eyes catching the light and the warning glint I saw almost made me want to prolong what was about to happen so I could let Seth have more of me.

"There'll be plenty of time for that," Ethan said.

"What are you doing?" I whispered as Ethan shifted above me.

Ethan swallowed as he stared down at me. Instead of answering, he pulled my still wandering hands away from his naked sides and wrapped my arms around his neck. He slipped a hand to my thigh and pulled it around his waist; the sudden intensity in his gaze as he glanced down my chest and reached between us startled me because I knew then it was going to finally happen.

I swallowed before slipping my tongue out, dampening my dry lips as I felt him prod my entrance. I lifted my hips, trying to help him push in, but only succeeded in making him slip forward. The tip of his dick hit my clit and caused my hips to pulse upward against him a few times.

"Seth," Ethan said, his voice hoarse.

Seth seemed to understand as he took advantage of my rising hips and slipped under me. He gently pushed my upper body forward, causing my breasts to smash against Ethan's chest, and when Seth settled me back down my ass was in his lap, my back against his chest.

"Whoa!" I gasped, startled at the new arrangement and the feel of Seth's very large erection against my ass. I wanted them both, but I wasn't ready for anal and I let them both know as much.

"That's not what I'm doing, but good to know you'll eventually be willing to try it," Seth said and he let out a breathless chuckle as his hands settled against my hips. He angled me upwards and held my hips in place so Ethan could slide into me.

My eyes slammed shut as Ethan pushed forward and I adjusted to the slowly releasing pressure in my groin. It didn't hurt as much as I heard it would. In fact, some of the pain that was there only seemed to heighten my pleasure. It still hurt, but I liked it and I gave an exaggerated thrust forward to let Ethan know. Ethan moaned and shook his head, which made Seth pull my hips down, once again holding me still.

"What's wrong?" I asked between mewling gasps.

"It doesn't hurt?" Seth asked.

"A little, but I—" I paused, wondering if it was entirely normal to like the pain. "It's okay."

Ethan exhaled sharply and pushed the rest of the way inside me, now lying fully on top of me.

Now that hurt.

My mouth dropped open and one of my eyes squinted as I cringed. I was breathless from the full feeling and the mix of pain—a little more pain now—and pleasure. My head dropped against Seth's shoulder and I turned my face into his neck to muffle my whimper.

Ethan's arms slipped between Seth and me. His hands clamped on my ass cheeks and he pulled me forward into his gyrating hips. His cheek settled against my collar bone and he let out a helpless moan. My heart was pounding so hard that I almost feared it would break through my ribs, and I could feel Ethan's matching mine beat for beat. I inhaled as he shifted slightly to the left and a new onslaught of a pressurized pain followed, but he quickly stilled at my tiny gasp.

"I love you guys fucking on top of me," Seth panted against my cheek.

I pulled my head out from the junction of his neck met his shoulders, and watched the multitude of emotions crossing Seth's flushed features as he panted heavily. Smiling at him, I dropped a kiss on his cheek.

Ethan cried out at the tiny movement and his fingers dug into the meat of my ass cheeks. "Cassie, stop," he whimpered.

His body started vibrating against mine and my eyes widened. "Are you going to—" I started to ask, but stopped when Ethan shook his head.

"Just don't move yet," Ethan whispered as he shivered above me.
