“Hey,” John said. “Do you have any plans for the rest of the night?”
“This is the rest of my night,” Natalie said. “I mean, this is my second dinner. I’m going to go into a serious food coma after this.”
“We could go back to my condo,” John suggested. “And just unwind.”
“Sure,” Natalie replied with a shrug. “I don’t have any other plans.”
As soon as she excused herself to go to the bathroom, I leaned in John.
“So, you have a plan, eh?” I asked. “Or should I just go home?”
“No,” he said. “You should stay. Besides, if I didn’t invite you to stay, you’d just steal her away from me.”
“Maybe,” I replied. “Depends what exactly you have in mind.”
“Well,” he said, “She seems to know what she wants. So why not let her decide?”
“What do you mean?” I asked.
“Leave it up to her,” he said with a shrug. “She calls the shots.”
“I don’t know,” I said. “I don’t like giving up control.”
“I don’t like giving up control either,” he said with a shrug. “But I don’t know, after bossing people around all day, I could relax and take orders from someone else.”
“I know what you mean,” I said, “But you think that she could do that?”
“Oh yeah,” he said. “You just wait. But we have to present it right.”
“I agree,” I said as she came back from the bathroom. She had her phone in her hand, and I leaned in.
“Everything OK?” she asked.
“Oh yeah,” she said. “I was just checking on Ricky.”
“Is he alright?” I hadn’t even given a thought to the guest in my house. It was so big that I wasn’t even sure I would ever see him.
“Oh yeah,” she said. “I think he’s happy to not have me in his space all the time.”
“Well, I’m happy to help,” I said, “But I feel like I didn’t really do anything. I mean, I wasn’t even there when he moved in. I’m an asshole.”
She chuckled.
“You’re not,” she swore. “You’re helping us out big time.”
The waitress came with the bill and John snatched it up before I even had a chance to look at it. He pulled out his credit card and I gave him a look.
“What?” he said. “You think I can’t afford it?”
“Of course, I know you can afford it,” I said. “I just don’t want to owe you one.”
“You’ll owe me one later,” he said, with a wink. Natalie watched us with a smile.
“Do you guys ever compete in other things?” she asked. “Or just the bill?”
“We compete over everything,” I said. “But we share everything, too.”
“Oh?” Natalie leaned forward. “Like what?”
“Everything,” John said. “When we were young, we’d steal each other’s sweaters and shoes. When I started my business, we shared an office space.”
“Wait, you were involved in this?” she asked. “You helped with Starlight?”
“Not really,” I said with a grin. “I just needed office space to study and he needed office space for his business. So, I paid, and he started Starlight while talking to me.”
“Oh my God, that’s so cute,” she said. “And it’s been like that forever? Do you even fight?”
“I mean, of course we fight,” he said. “All the time. But it doesn’t matter.”
“I know what you mean,” she said. “Caitlin and I are completely different people and we fight over everything. We argue about how to word a text.”
“Or an email,” I said, and she smiled.
“Yes,” she said. “Or an email.”
Once the bill was paid, John stood up. “Should we head off? Did you drive?”
“I took an Uber,” she said. “I was actually waiting for one when you guys showed up.”
“Do you know,” I said as we headed to the car, “I’ve never taken an Uber in my life?”
“What?” she asked. “Why?”
“I don’t know, I just never got around to it,” I said.
“You’ve never had a night out where you’ve had too many drinks?” she asked.
“Of course I have,” I said. “But I just…. take a limo or something.”
“Maybe we are worlds apart,” Natalie teased me as we slid into the car. “Didn’t you have a different car the other day?”
“I did,” I admitted. “I have a few in the garage. I like to just to rotate them around.”
“Like girls have purses,” John said. “Reed rotates cars.”
“How many cars do you have?” she asked John.
“Just one,” he replied. “I swear.”
“That’s because you just sold one,” I replied. “Don’t lie to her.”
Natalie chuckled and she leaned forward as I drove.
“So, what are we doing?” she asked. “Netflix and chill?”
“That sounds good,” I replied. “John?”
“Yeah, I want a drink,” he said. “It’s Tuesday night, we should just kick back and relax.”
“Oh yeah, that’s what I do every Tuesday,” I said. Natalie leaned back and looked out the window.
“Do you have tenure?” she asked me as we drove. “I meant to ask you.”
“Not yet,” I said.
“Do you want one?” she asked. “Is this your lifelong career?”
“I think it is,” I said. “I know that’s boring, but it’s…. just what I want.”
“And where you meet all the best people,” John said as he turned around and winked at Natalie.
“Oh, I see,” she said. “So, have you done this before?”
“That’s our secret,” John said.
“I mean, specifically with the TAs?” she asked. “You don’t have any sort of terrible reputation.”
“One or two, over the years,” I admitted. “But not enough to get a reputation.”
“Well then, I feel special,” she said as we got to John’s condo. “Oh, I know this building. They say it’s super modern.”
“It is,” John said as we got out. “I know there’s probably higher tech ones, but I’m happy with my fridge that talks.”
“I have to see this,” she replied.
“Well, right this way,” he said as he held the door for her. She glanced at me.
“You’re staying, right?” she asked me, and I nodded.
“Yes,” I said to her.
“Good,” she said with a smile. “Good.”
I winked at John as we headed to the elevator. This was going to be interesting, indeed.
Chapter 11
John
I thanked God that I had my condo cleaned before we got there. Unlike Reed, I wasn’t picky about who was in my apartment. I had cleaners, I had designers, I had everything.
When I realized that the cleaning lady had come, I breathed a sigh of relief. What I didn’t realize until I walked in was that I really didn’t have a lot of space that would fit three people. We were going to have to figure it out, and I was sure that we were up to the challenge.
“Wow,” Natalie said when we she walked in. “This place is pretty awesome.”
“Thanks,” I said. “Want to see the smart fridge?”
“Yes,” she said, looking as excited as a kid on Christmas. I walked her over to it, and she pushed a couple of buttons. “I need one of these, right away.”
“Yeah?” I said. “I’m sure I could get you one.”
“Oh no,” she said, and turned around. When she did, I took that as my opportunity to kiss her.
She didn’t expect it, but she came right into it. She kissed me and leaned against the fridge as she did.
“Mm,” she said. “That is tastier than anything in the fridge.”
“Yeah,” I said, and reached over to Reed who was standing behind me. He came forward and reached over to kiss her as well. She turned her face toward him and kissed him like she had been prepared for i
t all her life.
The two of us stood in front of her for quite awhile and kept kissing her. She was trying to give us equal attention, and I thought it was adorable
“Now,” I said to her softly, once the foreplay had been happening for awhile. “We’re going to play a little game.”
“Are we?” she asked. “What’s the game?”
“The game,” I said. “Is whatever you want it to be. You’re in charge. You tell us what you want to do.”
“Oh,” she said. “I don’t know if I can do that.”
“You can do this,” Reed said to her. “What do you want us to do?”
“I want you to touch me,” she said. “I want you to make me tingle all over.”
“I can do that,” I said and turned to Reed. “Could you do that?”
“You bet,” he said as he reached forward. I chuckled as I reached to touch her neck. It wasn’t the sexiest thing that he could have said, but it didn’t seem to matter. I stroked and kissed her neck, and he started to kiss a bit lower. We were moving in tandem and Reed got to her legs first. He only went down to her thigh and then reached back up to go for her pussy.
“Are you wearing panties today?” I asked her.
“She didn’t wear panties with you?” he asked me.
“It was a weird day,” she said, as Reed reached up between her legs. “And I guess today is a weird day, too.”
“Were you hoping to get fucked by that boy?” Reed asked.
“Tyler?” she answered “I don’t know. I was just... I don’t know.”
“Well, the question is,” Reed said. “Do you want a boy? Or do you want a man?”
He plunged his fingers into her pussy, and she moaned.
“Now,” he said. “What do you want?”
“I want that. I want to cum again and again. And I don’t want you two to have anything until I cum.”
“Torture,” I said. “I like that.”
“So, fuck me,” she said. “Fuck me so you get yours.”
Reed started to push his fingers in and out of her pussy. She moaned and slid back a bit. I continued to kiss her up and down her neck, until she started to cry out.
“Oh God,” she said. “Oh God, I can’t keep.... Oh God.”
“What’s going to happen?” Reed asked. “Are you going to cum?”
“Yes,” she moaned. She threw her head back and her hair fell all over her shoulders. She looked so sexy that I wanted to grab my cock and shove it in her there and then. But I didn’t touch it. I played by her rules and I ran my hands up and down her body. Reed was plunging into her so hard and I couldn’t stop myself. I reached to touch my cock and I started to tug.
“No,” she said, and she pushed my hand away. “Don’t do that.”
“Oh God,” I moaned. “Please.”
“No,” she had fire in her eyes.
“That’s right,” Reed said. “What do you want?”
“Make me cum,” she said, looking down on him. “Make me cum now.”
“Here, you take it,” he said and put a third finger in her. She gripped onto me and spread her legs wider as he plunged in and out of her.
“Oh God,” she moaned. “Oh God, I’m cumming. I’m cumming right now. Oh God.”
“That’s right,” he said. “Cum for me, baby. Cum for me.”
All of the sudden, she let out a shriek and then nearly collapsed. I caught her as she shuddered and shook. She was dripping wet, and she was lost in pleasure.
“Oh God,” she moaned. “Oh God.”
Her orgasm seemed to last a long time and every moan of pleasure brought me closer to my own orgasm. I started to grind against her, and she pulled back.
“I said no,” she said and reached for Reed’s hand. “For being a bad boy, you are going to get punished. Reed, pull out your cock.”
“What do you want me to do?” he asked.
“I want you to fuck me,” she said. “I want to cum again and then you can cum. And John, you can just watch. No touching yourself.”
That was going to be absolute torture, but I hoped that it would pay off in the long run. I watched as Reed pulled out his cock and stuck it in her. She was absolutely luscious when she was impaled and lost in the moment. She looked like she was going to cum again at any moment.
“I’m going to cum,” she moaned, fulfilling my prophecy. She was riding Reed and it was the sexiest I had ever seen. Her breasts were bouncing, and she was moaning and grabbing him.
“John,” she said after a few moments, and then reached for me. “I want to suck your cock.”
“Changing the plan on me, eh?” I asked. “I like that.”
“Yeah,” she said. “Give me your cock, now.”
I unzipped my cock and it sprung free. I barely gave her a chance to look at it before I plunged it into her mouth.
Her lips felt so good all around it, and she started to suck as Reed bounced her on his cock. She was sucking and moaning, and her lips on my cock felt like heaven.
“Oh my God, I’m not going to last long,” I said. “Yes, keep sucking. Keep sucking.”
“Oh yes,” Reed cried. “I’m going to cum. I’m going to cum.”
“Cum in me,” she said. She took my cock out of her mouth and then reached down to her clit and started rubbing it. “Cum in me. Fill me up.”
She was still rubbing her clit as she started to moan again. I could see that she was dripping wet, and I couldn’t stop pushing my cock into her mouth.
“Oh yes,” I said, as her cries reached a fervour pitch around mine. “Oh God.”
“I’m cumming,” Reed said and slammed into her so much that she took all of my cock into her mouth. I exploded as well and both of us cried out as the orgasm wracked us.
When I was done, I slowly slipped out of her mouth and on to the ground. It had felt so good and I couldn’t keep on my feet much longer.
Eventually, Red pulled out of her as well, as she fell beside of him. All of were panting and we couldn’t stop the little moans that were escaping.
“Oh my God, that was so good,” Natalie said at last. “I’ve never done anything like that before.”
“Never?”
“Never,” she said. “But it was good, and I think I’d do it again.”
“Well, that’s good,” Reed said and looked up at me. “It looks like we’ve found ourselves a normal Tuesday night hobby.”
“Oh man, my course work would suffer so much,” Natalie said. “But I’d do it. I’d do it again in a heartbeat.”
“Well, that’s good,” Reed said. “I think I’ll keep you on.”
“And if you don’t want her,” I said, “I’ll keep her.”
“I’ll make my own decisions,” she said. “And I think I’ll keep both of you. At least, for the rest of the night.”
“Mm,” Reed said, and then sat up and yawned. Natalie burst out laughing.
“Did I tire you out?” she teased.
“No,” he said, and then smiled. “Yes.”
“Oh, well,” I tugged at Natalie’s arm. “Maybe we should leave him here and go make our own fun.”
“As much as I want to do this,” she said. “I should get back.”
“So soon?” I asked.
“Yeah,” she said. “But maybe we could do this again soon?”
“Yes,” I said. “For sure.”
We let her pick up her clothes and she ran into the bathroom to take a shower before heading out the door. Once she was gone, I turned to Reed.
“What did you think?” Reed asked. “Did we freak her out?”
“Freak her out?” I asked. “Is that what you think we did?”
“Sort of,” he said, “Given how she ran out of here.”
“I think it’s just late,” I said, “And she’s tired. She has had a very long night.”
“I know,” he said, “But I know her. Something isn’t right.”
“Well, I suppose that we are going to find out soon enough,” I said. “She c
ould maybe never answer our texts again.”
“I hope that she does,” he said. “Seeing as we are working together.”
“Right,” I said. “Are you worried about that?”
“No,” he said. “I just…. I don’t know. Maybe. I don’t want things to go bad for her.”
“You have such a big heart,” I teased him. “But I think it will be alright.”
“I hope so,” he said. “Because remember I told you, her having a third advisor would be bad.”
“It’s going to be fine,” I said to Reed. “Don’t worry. Come on, let’s order a pizza.”
“You are insatiable,” he said to me. “We just ate.”
“I know,” I said. “That’s why the women love me.”
“Alright, Alright,” he said, and got up. “You can drop the act. It’s just me.”
“Ha,” he said and got up as well. I was tired as well, but my mind kept drifting back to Natalie. Had we screwed up? Was she no longer interested? Did we freak her out?
“Do you think that’s she’s really interested in that boy child?” I asked him as we ordered a pizza.
“I don’t know,” he admitted. “I want to say no, but... who knows.”
“Well, she has to decide what she wants,” I said. “And if she wants you or me, great. But if she wants that boy then... her loss.”
“I told you he begged me, eh?” Reed said. “He’s desperate.”
“I don’t think that she’s going to like that,” I said. “She knows what she wants.”
“Yes,” he said. “But knowing what you want and getting it are two different things.”
“I understand,” I said. “But I know what I want, and I get it.”
“Yeah,” he said. “Not everyone is you, John.”
“Ssh, it’s fine,” he replied. “Let’s just get the pizza.”
I had no idea how such a great night had turned bad so quickly. Reed seemed upset and I didn’t want to be dwelling on this all week. Either she was going to call us or she wasn’t, it was as simple as that.
Frankly, for at least my sex drive, I hope she called.
Chapter 12
Natalie
When I woke up the next morning, my head was spinning. I didn’t really know what to think. I remembered every single second of the night before, and yet it seemed like a dream. Could that really have happened?
