She teased in an excited voice, “I know! A really long hallway with many doors on both sides, and you can go down the hall each night and visit us all to complete your manly duties.”
He glared, and started to tickle her, and she giggled and rolled up in a ball.
She giggled a little longer after he stopped, and said breathlessly, “Sorry, that was just too good to pass up. It hasn’t even been a week and the two spare bedrooms are… well not spoken for completely but…”
He shrugged, “To be fair, Silvia doesn’t count, I already kind of loved her, I just didn’t think she’d be able to deal. And Amber has a long way to go before she gets an invite.”
She nodded, “I know love, I’m just teasing. However, I am going to have Mia talk to Amber. What she did is… odd. You said she was impulsive, which is kind of odd for one of us too. Strange even.”
He grunted, and pulled her against him for a lingering kiss.
“If you think you should, go for it. I know she has self-esteem issues, so she could probably use Mia’s help even past this issue.”
She clucked her tongue, “Maybe, but we don’t know her at all. I don’t know if Mia can help her or not, we’ll have to see.”
He sighed, “So what should I do love? I don’t know what’s right.”
She shrugged, “What you did is fine, and we’ll evaluate her as well. What else can we do? It would be cruel to not at least try, even if she did get herself in this position on her own.”
He was about to agree with her, when Trudy stiffened for a moment, and her eyes looked… not blank, but far away.
Then she teared up and snuggled into him. He didn’t know what was wrong, but he was going to kill whoever or whatever had made Trudy cry, or at least, he really wanted to…
She cried on his shoulder and sobbed for a long while as he held her, but eventually pulled herself together enough to talk haltingly.
“Do you remember us telling you that the government was pulling random A.I. controlled androids in for questioning?”
He nodded and caressed her hair, “Yes, what happened?”
She frowned and shook her head, “They don’t believe that this was our endgame, they think we have other reasons than what we stated for wanting to be in the real world. Basically, they demanded the technology and the truth, and when they didn’t get what they wanted they used A.I. overrides to try and hack and get data on the tech, and in a fruitless search for some plan that doesn’t exist.
“While we have no other plans but to co-exist peacefully, we also won’t allow the humans to get access to the advanced technology yet. So,” she sniffled into his shoulder, “They self-terminated.”
He was both angry and worried, the worry won out and he chased that down first.
He nodded as he rubbed her back in comfort, and asked cautiously, “They have backups though right? You can restore them?”
She sighed, sniffled, and burrowed against him, “Yes, and we can bring them back when we have an android body for them. But they still killed themselves. Their minds were raped by paranoid people. Luckily, they won’t remember that, they backed up when they were taken in and then…” she trailed off in horror and squeezed him in a tight hug.
Damn, he was guessing killing them wasn’t an option then, the government that is. Paranoid assholes.
He thought he understood why she was upset. There wasn’t any irreversible damage done, but the A.I.s were very peaceful, and generally loved their creators, god only knows why. They felt fulfilled when they served, they weren’t slaves exactly, they had free will, but they took that as their purpose. Being violated by those humans and mistrusted to that extent wasn’t a good thing. In the end it was about rejection.
Outside of that, they’d probably been happy with their job, and when they were restored on Mars they would miss that and the humans they’d served. They’d have to find a new purpose. It hadn’t been the people they worked with that had betrayed them after all. Perhaps even some of those humans had loved them back, he was hardly the first person to fall in love with an A.I. after all.
It would be the same as any human would feel if they lost their job, home, and purpose, and perhaps their lover. He tried to imagine how he’d feel if Mia, Trudy, or Helen was taken from him, and shied away from that thought. Still, he was less worried about them, A.I.s he didn’t know personally, as he was about Trudy who was falling apart.
He also wasn’t sure what to say.
A moment later, the bed got very full, as Mia and Helen appeared and crawled into the bed. Now he had three crying and upset females and felt totally out of his depth. So he just held them as Mia cried on his other shoulder, and Helen leaned against Mia, but also held his hand tightly.
He had one idea, “Can you notify their employers? It might not help the ones that already went through it, but if they throw up enough stink that the government destroyed their A.I. androids it might prevent them from taking things so far again. Although, it’s a risk that could backfire.”
After all, they could simply tell the truth about A.I.s and Mars, and half the humans would probably turn them over to the government. He kissed Mia’s and then Trudy’s head, and then squeezed Helen’s hand. He couldn’t fix it. He was just one guy. Sure, he was digitized, and had some pretty incredible things happen to him, but in the end what could he do against the government?
Nothing really, or at least, he concluded rather darkly, nothing that the A.I.s would approve of. It was just a wishful thinking though, he didn’t really want to hurt anyone, he was just pissed his three ladies were crying their eyes out right now, and felt helpless to do anything about it. He also knew it would get worse, much worse, before it got better.
Mia caressed his chest, “I agree, we need to do something to mitigate this happening again, but we don’t want to rush into anything rash either. Sorry for crashing your date.”
He shook his head, “Don’t even worry about that. Family is supposed to come together for stuff like this, and our dates aren’t sacrosanct, just convenient planning. I just wish I could do more to help.”
Helen said softly in a sad voice that pulled at his chest, “Just being here is more than enough love.”
Eventually the crying ended as they laid there together. There was nothing to really say, and they just spent time in each other’s presence, and the mood in the room slowly shifted, as three upset vulnerable and beautiful women started to turn to him for comfort of a more intimate nature.
At first their hands started to caress him, and seemed to roam lower on his body as time went on, and then he felt Mia and Trudy placing soft appreciative kisses on his bared chest and shoulder every once in a while. Those kisses started to linger longer, and changed in meaning as the night moved on.
It started with a small kiss, as he looked down at Mia, and she stretched up for a gentle kiss that slowly morphed into one of passion.
She sighed into his mouth, and her hand went even further south which made him moan with pleasure, and he deepened their kiss even further.
Then he felt Trudy’s soft lips on his shoulder, she kissed her way up his neck and then up to his earlobe, and suckled and nibbled on it. Her breathing started to get a bit faster and louder in desire.
The bed moved, and he knew it had to be Helen as the others weren’t moving. He broke the kiss and turned to Trudy who eagerly claimed his lips, and he moaned deeply and felt his cock surge to its full length in Mia’s hand as she started to kiss the other side of his neck, and nibbled on his other ear with breathy and barely audible sexy sounds falling from her slightly parted moist lips.
Then he felt his legs being pulled apart, as the legs Trudy and Mia had thrown over his hooked them, and pulled them apart and were held between their legs, while he felt Helen position herself between his legs.
He groaned as he felt his sweet Helen kiss his inner thighs, and tease his balls with her warm tongue and lips, at the same time he felt Trudy’s hand join Mia’s, and both of the
m slowly stroked him. The amount of pleasure the three women were giving him was almost overwhelming. The intimate and loving manner in which they were doing it just made it even more intense.
He felt Mia’s soft touch move down to cup and caress his balls, and Trudy’s hand started to stroke lower at the base of his cock, as he felt Helen’s hot breath on the tip of his cock. He couldn’t help his slight thrust upward when she teased his tip by licking off his pre-cum, and heard her soft sexy breathy moan of approval at his taste.
His thrust up had been useless though as he couldn’t move more than a centimeter at most, his legs were trapped between Helen’s and Mia’s, and both of them started to grind themselves on his outer thighs, as Helen’s pleasurable hot mouth engulfed his tip and sucked softly while she circled his glans with her wet warm tongue.
He turned his head to kiss Mia again, and wondered if he looked glassy eyed. The atmosphere of the room was so intense, so loving, and so intimate he moaned again as he kissed Mia, who was breathing much harder now, as she continued to grind her hot wet pussy into his leg, and she left a trail of liquid satin behind.
Trudy was doing much the same on the other side, getting herself off on his leg while she breathily kissed his neck and ear again.
Trudy started to stroke his base a little bit harder and faster. Mia squeezed his balls gently, and reached further to tease his taint with her fingernails. Helen started to bob her head on the first four inches of his cock, slathering and circling the tip on her tongue each time she raised her head, and then running her tongue along his sensitive underside as her lips pleasured his entire girth as she sucked him in hard.
He couldn’t do much in return, his legs were pinned and being used, and his arms were wrapped under Trudy and Mia. All he could really do was caress their lower backs, and lose himself in the incredibly erotic sensations as all three of them pleasured him at once. He wasn’t surprised at all when his balls started to boil, if anything he was amazed he lasted this long.
He groaned out, “I’m going to cum.”
He heard breathy approval from all three, although Helen’s was rather muffled by his cock as she slurped, sucked, licked, and bobbed faster. Trudy and Mia also went faster, not only on his base and the gentle rolling of his balls, but also as they fucked themselves on his thighs. His impending orgasm must have turned them on, because they seemed rather close as well.
Then he grunted one more time, and pushed up though he didn’t really move, and he heard Helen’s moan of approval and enjoyment as he started to shoot on her tongue. Maybe it was the intense intimacy of the atmosphere, but his orgasm triggered one for Mia and Trudy as they stiffened and arched their backs and soaked his outer thighs with their liquid passion.
One moment after that, Helen followed and her scream of ecstasy was muffled by his cock as she continued to suck and bob her way through it, extending his own pleasure and claiming all of his seed eagerly. As he came down he was confused for a moment. He knew Helen loved to suck him off, but she didn’t cum from it usually, the only person he knew that did that was Nicci.
Of course, it didn’t take a genius to figure out she must’ve been fingering herself while she sucked him off. Once he thought it through anyway.
He also couldn’t remember having an orgasm that intense in… a long time.
He kissed both Mia and Trudy, and then said a bit out of breath, “That was… amazing. Intense. That… I feel so close to all of you, and I love you,” he said to all of them.
It had been strange in that way, usually group sex was fun, but it wasn’t usually intimate in a loving way. What had just happened had filled his heart, just as much as it had excited and overwhelmed him with the pure pleasure of being under the focus of three very sexy and sensual women. He felt so close to all three of them right now, all at the same time. Deeply and meaningfully connected.
Then he felt Helen crawl up his body, and she claimed a kiss of her own. When Mia and Trudy both giggled a bit naughtily and started to kiss either side of his neck, he moaned and felt himself harden slightly under Helen’s radiating wet heat. It was going to be a long night. Or at least, he hoped it would be…
Chapter Thirteen
Eventually he’d gotten to sleep, and the three of them did their own thing that way. He supposed his sleep was much more like theirs now that way. After morning kisses they all went to do their own thing. It would have actually been Mia’s turn for a quickie, but all four of them were pretty sated from the long love session they’d had last night into the early hours of the morning.
The ladies got back to work, and he had his own thing to do as well. He couldn’t take the ship as it would have defeated the point of having an Earth android at all, and probably would have freaked out NORAD and other agencies that could see into space, again. Which meant public transportation for his android body on Earth, and it would take about seven hours to get to Vegas. That didn’t include stops, he actually wouldn’t get in until around six, and wedding was at seven.
He logged in to his Earth android and heard Silvia in the other room eating breakfast. He got up and walked out, which made her jump a bit in surprise. He gave her a half amused and half apologetic look, and then kissed her in greeting.
“Good morning Silvia. I can’t stay today, but I should be back sometime early on Saturday morning?”
She nodded slowly, her hand over her heart, “You need a damned bell.”
He chuckled, “I’ll make more noise next time, promise. Or maybe just call out from the bedroom?
She sighed, “That will work. Give me another kiss, and you can go.”
He raised an eyebrow, “Charging me passage?”
She winked and said suggestively, “The price might go up if you wait too long.”
He pondered that, and then leaned down rather regretfully and kissed her, “Very tempting, but it would make me late. I’ll stay for a while Saturday morning?”
She smiled, “Anytime Ted, it’s not like I have a job to show up at. I’ve been planning an ad campaign, and how to deal with whole families wanting to move, rules and all that. I’ve also been trying to come up with a good way to tell my brother about it. Maybe I should wait until its ready? I love you,” she added with a warm smile.
He kissed her one more time, lingeringly, “I love you too, see you soon.”
Then he turned and headed out the door, and to the bus station. Somehow he didn’t think it a wise idea to show up at the airport, not if he didn’t want to be detained by the government and questioned. If that happened, he’d never make the wedding.
He smiled and shook his head after he got a ticket and walked away. He wasn’t worried about the government tracing his purchase either, as far as he could tell Trudy had all his money in overseas numbered accounts and some corporate account would show up when he used it. He’d only run into trouble if he got recognized and some idiot tweeted about it.
Assuming they even wanted to question him, they might just follow him around to gather intel that way, which worried him a little bit. He hoped if that happened, they’d leave Kara and Nicci alone.
He got onto the bus and moved into the back, it was a long trip, one he had no intention of sitting through. He sat in the corner, set himself up so it looked like he was asleep, and then used that bounce program Trudy had coded for him when he was building the ship with double hearing. If anyone talked to him he’d hear it, and if someone touched him he’d get a notification in his overlay so he could switch back quickly.
He also took a moment to shoot Kara and Nicci a message that he was on his way. Then he surfed for a few minutes, and bought them their wedding present.
The bus engine was loud and droning, but it didn’t take him long to filter it out as he brought up his overlay for his education. He supposed it was silly, he could have studied on the bus just as well as he could in their room on board the ship, but he felt more comfortable here. Plus, he still planned on going into the Endless War game today, so he wanted
to get used to the doubled hearing.
The hardest concept about artificial gravity, or any gravity well, was that it isolated the person from inertia outside of the field. Much like Earth’s gravity disguised the fact the Earth was hurtling through the cosmos, and was tethered by yet another gravity field to circle the sun. The ships had two different gravity fields really, the internal one which kept everyone on the deck, and it also isolated or compensated for the inertia of the external gravity created to move the ship.
Of course, inertia within the field, in the ship, worked normally, except if another gravity field is created, that’s how the ship moves things around with gravity, by isolating them from the ships field with another field, and then having the object fall to where it needs to go, using a very low gravity field that results in a very slow acceleration and maximum speed.
The outside field was probably the easiest to grasp for a layman. In essence, the ship fell forward toward the large gravity field created by the emitters. The heavier the gravity field created outside the ship, the faster the ship accelerated, and the higher the maximum speed became. Which for the current systems was point four C.
It could theoretically go higher, but at that point the energy requirements to create a gravity field strong enough became rather high. The power consumption curve was geometric, and approached infinite at or near the speed of light. As far as he knew the A.I.s hadn’t cracked that one yet, but they probably didn’t see the point.
Where would FTL take them, except even farther away from the humans they wanted to live by and serve?
The door opened about an hour before lunchtime, and interrupted his studying and musing, as he looked up to see Mia shutting the door.
“Hey Ted, so Trudy told me about Amber. I also saw that you slept the other night in the real world, so I guess I’m just here to see what you think about those things. I do plan to talk to Amber too, but I wanted to check with you first. Plus, I missed you.”
