The Glue

by Webster, K

  Vaughn pauses. “Am I hurting you?”

  “N-No,” I breathe. “I’m just nervous.”

  They both wait me out. So patient and loving.

  “Do it,” I whisper.

  I can feel Vaughn’s hand on his dick brushing against me as he holds it steady while pushing inside me. Once his crown breaches my opening, his lubed cock slides easily in.

  Holy shit.

  I’ve never felt so…full.

  “Talk to me, Vale,” Aiden orders, his brows furling together in concern. But his lips are parted. This feels good for him.

  Slowly, I push back against them, forcing Vaughn deeper. Both men hiss in pleasure. The choked sounds escaping them and the fact I’m not ripping apart gives me more confidence.

  “Fuck me,” I plead. “I want to feel like you both want this as much as I do.”

  Both men let out similar growls as both their hips flex at once. I’m impaled deeper by two thick cocks. I cry out in pleasure. It’s a burning, exciting type of feeling. Different than what I’m used to.

  “Touch her clit,” Vaughn orders to Aiden.

  As soon as Aiden works his hand between us, I start to lose my mind. Now that coupled with the way they stretch me out has pleasure surging through me. But when Vaughn rubs a slippery thumb against my asshole, I know I’m about to be sent hurtling into some new realm. The burn of his thumb breaching my ass does send me over the edge. I black out in pleasure as my climax rips through me and I cry out. My entire body trembles uncontrollably.

  “Fuck her good,” Aiden barks out. “Fuck her hard.”

  He’s a little trapped beneath us so his movements are limited. He makes up for it by rubbing my clit so hard he sends me into another orgasm. I’m slick with sweat between them and am at their glorious mercy. They continue fucking me until they quickly unravel. Heat floods inside of me and I know it’s Vaughn who’s come first based on the way he groans. His cum works as a fresh lubricant that has us really slipping and sliding. Aiden lets out a choked growl as he comes too.

  “Oh, God,” I whimper. “That was…wild.”

  Aiden laughs as Vaughn slowly eases out of me. Aiden’s cock, now soft, slides out of me when he rolls me to my back. Vaughn sidles up on my other side and he smiles happily down at me.

  “I can settle for wild,” Aiden says with an easy smile. “As long as you’re happy.”

  Tears well in my eyes because I’m overwhelmed by emotion. When Vaughn frowns with worry, I stroke his stubbly cheek.

  “I’m very happy,” I tell them both. “I haven’t been this happy in a long time.”

  Two months later…

  “This is the smartest thing we’ve done yet,” Vale says with pride as she admires her busy coffee shop.

  Wi-Fi.

  Free Wi-Fi.

  I chuckle as I ring up a customer and then steal a kiss from her. The shop is bustling. People don’t just run in for coffee and go. Now, we rival some of the chain coffee shops with our lingering college students and business people. Some will stay for hours at the same table working on projects. It looks good for potential customers too to see it so busy. This was the first month Vale wasn’t in the red.

  “I still think the smartest thing was taking down those hideous curtains,” I tease.

  She swats at me. “Asshole.”

  Another customer comes in and while she takes care of them, I grab a wet rag and the disinfectant to clean off some tables. I love this place. Since I’ve had such a hand in making it better, I feel a sense of pride. Even Dad and Anthony drop by to throw in their two cents on how to bring in more clientele, which makes me happy to know they care.

  Vale laughs at her customer and I stare at her. All she does is smile and giggle. Such a far cry from the woman I met months ago. Back when her marriage was on the rocks. Her marriage is solid now. I love feeling like I have been instrumental in keeping it together.

  Some days, I wonder about the future. I let it eat at me some, but Vale and Vaughn are both intuitive. When I feel worried, they distract me. Just like when Vale got upset after meeting my siblings for the first time, we came together to distract her.

  My phone buzzes in my pocket and I grin to see it’s Vaughn.

  Vaughn: I got us tickets to see a movie later.

  Me: Which movie?

  Vaughn: I’ll give you three guesses and the first two don’t count.

  I snort because I know.

  Me: Let me guess. Dwayne Johnson’s newest one.

  Vaughn: Vale’s favorite.

  She’s seen all of his movies probably a hundred times each. It’s cute. We like to give her shit about her crush, although she says she likes him for his acting ability.

  “Aiden?”

  My smile falls when I see Alani Rice staring at me. I’m immediately tense at seeing her. Last year, we fucked around and dated. I lost my virginity to her and then had sex with her cousin Jaime. It was where I really explored whether or not I liked males or females. I’d loved everything about pussy and Alani’s cute tits, but all it took was her cousin Jaime to pull his dick out and then I was all over him too. Eventually, Jaime got bored and I stayed with Alani. That is, until she cheated on me.

  “You look good,” she says. “Still working at a bakery, I see.”

  Her gaze falls to my wrist. Last summer her fucking dad broke my arm when I pretended to be my brother.

  “Yep,” I grunt.

  She bites on her bottom lip in a way I used to find irresistible. Not anymore. I want her to leave.

  “I’m enjoying college,” she says lightly.

  I force a smile. “Me too. I stayed local.”

  “So I heard.”

  She lets out a heavy sigh. “I’m in for the weekend visiting Dad, but maybe we could have dinner or something. I feel really bad about how we ended things.”

  “I’m in a relationship,” I tell her, my eyes drifting to Vale.

  Vale flashes me a sweet smile before turning back to her customer. She reaches to take their money and her wedding ring glimmers under the light.

  “That’s her?” Alani asks. “A married woman?”

  I jerk my gaze back her way. “It’s none of your business.”

  Her lips purse together. “The husband too?”

  I hate that she knows me so well. “You should go.”

  “Oh,” she mutters. “I wasn’t trying to offend you. I just…” She trails off and frowns. “You of all people know it’s too hard when three people try to make it work.”

  “It’s hard for anything to work when one of the people is out spreading her legs for the whole football team,” I bite out.

  She blinks at me in shock. I’ve always been one to play nicely, but right now I’m feeling anything but. I don’t like that I feel the need to defend my relationship to Alani of all people.

  “You should go,” I say softer. “I’m glad you’re doing well.”

  Her smile is fake as she walks away. I walk over to Vale and give her a hug, taking strength from her warm embrace.

  “Everything okay?” she asks.

  “It is now.”

  I’m tense as we head into the movie theater. Vaughn has his fingers threaded with Vale’s as they absently stare at up-and-coming movie posters on the walls. For a spilt, bitter second, I feel like an outsider. It’s stupid because before Alani showed up this afternoon, I’d been completely content.

  But she planted a seed of doubt inside me.

  Hell, maybe the seed was already there and she just watered it.

  Regardless, I’m beginning to wonder just how well this relationship will work. When it’s three different people with no prior life tying them together, everyone feels on equal ground. But Vale and Vaughn love each other. I’m going into it with an unfair advantage.

  Vale clutches my bicep. “You okay?”

  I give her a clipped nod and walk up to the concessions counter. We tell the woman our order and then I toss some twenties on the glass to pay. Vaughn shoots me a
questioning glare and I shrug my shoulders at him.

  “Why the sudden attitude?” Vaughn demands, slinging his arm over my shoulders.

  He hands the man our tickets and we walk past him. I feel like everyone is eyeing us. Are we freaks now? Did I make them freaks? I clench my jaw and shake him off me, nearly dropping my drink in the process. I can hear them whispering to each other behind me as we walk into the theater. When we reach the top, Vaughn points at a seat. I drop into it and place my drink in the holder. They take a seat on either side of me, boxing me in. Normally, I’d be super fucking happy about that, but right now, I don’t know how I feel.

  Annoyed.

  Frustrated.

  Confused.

  Vale tries to take my hand, but I start opening my box of candy, ignoring her. She settles her palm on my thigh and pats me. My chest aches because I know my sudden moodiness is confusing her. Probably hurting her feelings.

  But Vaughn?

  He’s pissed.

  I can feel his stare burning into me as the previews start. I try to tune them both out as I attempt to work out how my future with them plays out.

  They’ll find their way back to each other and push me out.

  Bitterness tightens its hold around my heart.

  What they have for each other is love. What they have for me is lust. As much as I care for them, I’m nothing but a device in their marriage. Something to rekindle what they’ve lost. Pain aches in my chest. My brother always tells me I feel too much. That I dive into every relationship head first. I wish I could change that about myself, but I can’t. Especially not now. With Vale and Vaughn, I put every ounce of me into this thing we’re doing.

  But what happens at the end?

  When the fucking credits are rolling?

  They’ll leave hand in hand, and I’ll trail behind them. Bitter and lost.

  A strong hand curls behind my neck and pulls me to him. Vaughn’s hot breath is in my ear the next instant. “Whatever’s going on in your head, we’re going to talk about it tonight.”

  “I’m not staying over tonight,” I grit out.

  “The hell you’re not,” he grumbles. “You’re coming home with us and you’re going to tell me what the hell has you so upset.” He squeezes the back of my neck in an affectionate way. “So we can fix it.”

  I swallow down the emotion and stare blindly at the screen. He’s waiting for a reaction, so I give him a simple nod. Eventually he releases me to take my hand. Vale pulls my box of candy away and then her hand takes my other. I close my eyes, trying desperately to push the self-doubt away and enjoy this with them. I hate that one meeting with Alani and I’m second-guessing everything.

  Vale rubs comforting circles on my hand with her thumb while Vaughn squeezes me so tight, I think he’ll crush the bones in my hand. They don’t seem like two people ready to let me go. The thought of them sitting across from me, as a united front, telling me we’re done, has the candy souring in my stomach.

  She leans over the armrest and props her head on my shoulder. My heart feels like it’s cracking down the middle. When I broke up with people in my past relationships, it stung. But if it happens with these two, I know it’s going to hurt a lot worse. I’m too attached. I fucking warned them I would be.

  I watch the rest of the movie in a daze.

  I should break it off with them. Move on before I make an even bigger mess of their lives. My heart sinks.

  I couldn’t do that if I tried.

  It won’t be me breaking up with them, that’s for sure.

  Which means when they finally let me go, it’ll be my heart that gets crushed in the process, and there’ll be no way of stopping it.

  “I think I’m going to head out,” I tell them, standing awkwardly in their kitchen.

  Vale frowns and shakes her head. “No.”

  I lift my brows and scoff. “Okayyyy.”

  “You’re not going anywhere,” Vaughn grumbles. “You’re going to get your ass upstairs and in that bed where you belong.”

  “Because I’m your fuck toy,” I snap. “Got it. Almost forgot my place in this game.”

  Vaughn’s jaw clenches and Vale gasps.

  “Aiden,” she whispers. “You’re not…”

  “This isn’t a fucking game,” Vaughn growls, prowling my way. “It’s our fucking life.” He points at her and then himself before poking my chest. “Our life.”

  He leans his forehead against mine and some of the tension bleeds from me. When Vale hugs me from behind, I find myself relaxing against Vaughn. He’s coiled tight, but he wraps an arm around me, hugging me to him.

  “Don’t self-sabotage,” he rumbles. “Because you’re not the only person who gets hurt.”

  Guilt slices through me. “I’m sorry,” I choke out. “I just don’t know how to navigate this shit.”

  Vale sniffles and more guilt assaults me. “We navigate it together,” she tells me, her voice shaking with emotion. “Please don’t distance yourself from us.”

  I turn my head and Vaughn does the same. His lips meet mine as he kisses me in a desperate way I’ve yet to experience from him. Like he’s scared. Like he almost lost me and he can’t believe I’m still here. The thought has my heart kick-starting to life. I break from his kiss and pull away to turn toward Vale. Tears streak down her pretty red cheeks and I palm her face, swiping the wetness away with my thumbs. “I’m sorry,” I tell her. “I just freaked the fuck out for a bit there.”

  She smiles at me. “No more freaking out.” I allow her to guide me out of the kitchen and upstairs while we leave Vaughn to close up the house for the night. Once in their bedroom, she starts pulling away my hoodie and shirt. When I’m just in my jeans, she yanks off her sweater, baring her cute tits that are barely concealed in her bra to me. My mouth waters to lick the valley between her breasts. Vaughn enters the room, his stare becoming wolfish as he takes in our half-naked bodies. He yanks off his own shirt and strides over to us.

  “You’re hot when you’re pouty,” Vaughn teases as his warm body presses against mine from behind. His large palms splay over my abs. “God, I love your stomach.”

  I chuckle when Vale nods in agreement.

  All humor fades, though, when Vale removes the rest of her clothing. My eyes track her naked body as she rummages in the end table. She tosses a bottle of lube on the bed beside us before approaching me with hungry eyes.

  “Take his pants off,” she orders her husband. “We have to convince him to stay.”

  Heat burns through me when he starts deftly undoing my jeans. I let out a groan when his palm rubs over my hard dick over my boxers.

  “Like this, baby?” he asks her as he strokes me.

  She taps her bottom lip as though she’s thinking. “He still has that panicked look in his eyes like he might run at any second. Pull his cock out, honey.”

  I can feel Vaughn smile against the side of my neck before he nips my skin there. “Of course, sweetheart.”

  She beams at us as he pulls my dick into his hand. His own erection is hard as fuck pressed against my ass.

  “Maybe you should suck his nice cock,” Vaughn suggests, his breath hot against my neck. “You suck cock so well, beautiful. I’m sure you could convince him better than I could.”

  She steps closer and wraps her hand over his so they stroke me together. I let out a hiss of pleasure.

  “I don’t know,” she says, batting her lashes. “I’ve seen the way you suck his cock, Vaughn, and I have to say, he really likes it.”

  He pushes my boxers down my thighs and then he works on his own pants. Soon, his naked dick is rubbing against the crack of my ass.

  “I know of other ways to make him feel good,” Vaughn growls. “Get on your knees, baby. It’s important you do it really fucking well. We want to keep him. Make him want to stay.”

  She drops to her knees and her plump lips wrap around my dick. Hot and wet. Feels fucking wonderful. I run my fingers through her silky hair and grip her tight.
She allows me to take over the pace as I slowly fuck her face.

  “Now that’s an image that gets me really fucking hard,” Vaughn rumbles as he reaches for the lube. “But I’m too greedy to sit back and watch. No, I want to have a hand in making you want to stay.”

  He squirts the lube on his dick and then he slides it against my crack.

  “Put your palms on the bed,” he orders to me. And then to Vale, “Keep sucking, baby.”

  We shuffle until my legs are parted with Vale beneath me. Slowly, I rock my hips, fucking her pretty mouth. Vaughn’s strong grip holds me in place as the tip of his fat cock presses against my asshole.

  “You’re not going anywhere,” Vaughn hisses as his dick slides inside of me, stretching me with his thickness. “You’re staying right here where we can enjoy you.” He thrusts hard and Vale gags. “And not just for sex, goddammit. We like taking you to the fucking movies and dinner.”

  She pops off, licks the tip of my dick, and then looks up at me. “We do. I love working with you. You make me laugh.”

  Vaughn thrusts hard again, making me groan in pleasure. “And I like fucking looking at you. Even when you’re pouting and feeling sorry for yourself.” His palm comes around to stroke my cock and then he grips Vale’s hair, pulling her closer. “Mouth on his cock, baby.”

  When her lips slide back over my length, my knees nearly buckle. They’re driving me crazy in a good way. I certainly don’t feel like a fuck toy. I feel wanted and adored.

  Vaughn pulls nearly all the way out of my ass, the crown of his dick stretching my opening, before he slides back in. “Feel the way I own your ass?” he growls in question.

  “Fuck yes,” I grunt.

  “And feel the way my wife’s throat chokes your dick?”

  She hums in agreement, making me dizzy with pleasure.

  “No one,” he rumbles. “No one outside of this bedroom can make you feel the way we do.”

  He starts fucking me harder and Vale enthusiastically sucks on my dick. We get caught up in the moment. No more talking. Just grunts and moans. Murmurs of praise. Our bodies making sloppy sounds that are fucking hot as hell.
