He laughs. “I don’t know if should be offended or say thank you.”
“It’s not a bad thing, but it’s a lot to handle, especially when I had no idea what you were about.”
“Want to know something funny? Growing up, my brother used to tease me about being apocalypse ready. Got even worse when I joined the military. Guess it was something that always fascinated me.”
I reply, “Well, some of your tricks have come in handy. Others can be quite annoying.”
“Sadly the apocalypse doesn’t make it easy to get to know strangers.”
I nod. “That’s no joke. We lucked out meeting Avery, Joey, and Joseph. But I’m not sure I could let another group in like that.”
Mostly because it was too hard when we lost them. Their deaths will haunt me for the rest of my life.
He says, “I feel the same way. Even today when we were looking at that sweet lady I was unsure if we could trust her.” He sighs. “My one regret in Boston is that we weren’t able to find out where Avery, Joey, and Joseph’s other other brother lived.”
“I know. They used to talk about him so fondly.” I think. “What was his name again?”
“Juan.”
“Well, I’m sure Juan was as kind as his brothers.”
Dave asks, “Were you an only child?”
“Yes. My parents wanted more kids, but it just wasn’t in the cards for them.”
He says, “It was just my brother and me. Our old man had his hands full.”
“Did your brother live in Boston?”
Dave’s expression becomes sad. “No. He didn’t. He stayed in Oklahoma, but I lost touch with him when I joined the military.”
“Was he older or younger?”
“Older. He was a fancy orthopedic surgeon. Drove our dad nuts that he didn’t become an attorney.”
I ask, “Was your dad mad that you joined the Army?”
“Surprisingly not. Guess he could support a man serving his country, but not a man who helped people in other ways.” He shrugs. “Our dad was a dick. That’s probably where I get it from.”
I bump my shoulder against his. “You’re not a dick all of the time.”
He puts his hand over his heart. “That might be the kindest thing you’ve ever said to me, Nikki.”
He looks at me, smiling, and I’m taken aback at how handsome he is. The look on his face changes, too, and I know he’s about to kiss me.
He surprises me by asking, “Can I kiss you, Nikki?”
I nod. His large hand cups my face as he presses his lips against mine. I’m super conscious as to where he touches me, feeling hyperalert. His tongue traces the fullness of my lips. I part my mouth allowing him further access. When our tongues touch, we both moan.
He says against my mouth, “Nikki, this is the best date I’ve had.”
I smile and kiss him again. This time his lips are more demanding in what they seek. When we pull apart he grins at me.
“Damn. Where do I sign up for a second date?”
I smile back at him. “I’ll have to check my schedule.”
Rocco calls out, “I call dibs on the next date.”
Dave shakes his head, but doesn’t seem angry. I allow him to gather me into his arms.
“Is this too weird?”
He asks, “What do you mean?”
“I’m basically dating all of you.”
He says, “As long as you’re happy. That’s all that matters, Nikki.”
The smile he gives me sends my pulse racing. I know that by letting these men into my life that things are going to be different. And the idea excites me.
The next few weeks go by in a blur. We travel each day, getting closer to the state line. Each night I go on a date with one of the guys. They’re each charming in their own ways and I feel myself falling for them.
After a close encounter with a horde, I decide life is too short. I know I need to talk to them as a group before things go any further.
We’re sitting in front of the fire. Dave has his arm around my shoulder and I’m leaning against him. Jeff is on my other side, holding my hand.
Sighing, I stand. “We need to talk.”
All five men groan and I bite back a grin.
Harper says, “Nothing good ever comes after those words, Nikki.”
“It’s not bad.” I frown. “Not to me, at least. You all might have opinions, which is why we need to talk.”
There are more groans.
Harper shakes his head. “Well, spit it out. You’ve decided on who you want to date, haven’t you?”
Rocco says, “I told you she would eventually only want to date one of us. You just didn’t believe me.”
“Well, it’s obvious you’re out,” Jeff says to Rocco.
Noah asks, “Was it something I did?”
Dave stands and says, “For fuck’s sake, let Nikki talk. Damn. No wonder she wants to break up with all of you.”
He winks at me as he sits back down and I do laugh this time.
“It’s not bad, I promise.” I look them each in the eyes. “I’ve enjoyed getting to know you all.”
“But?” Jeff asks.
“But I want more.”
There’s a stunned silence.
I’m not sure if they know what I mean, so I say, “I want to have sex. With all of you.”
Noah asks, “Like… at the same time?”
His entire face is pink and I feel myself blushing, too.
“No! Not at the same time.”
A flash of Jeff and Rocco taking me at the same time crosses my mind. Okay. Might have to amend that one.
I go on, “I want to make sure we’re all on the same page. I like all of you. I want to have sex with all of you. But, I don’t want this to affect your friendships with each other. I don’t want anyone to feel left out or like I don’t spend enough time with them.”
I won’t be the reason this group of men stops being friends. That’s why we all need to be on the same page.
Harper grins. “I’m liking what I’m hearing. Do you want to make a sleeping schedule or something?”
My face flames. “I’m not sure, really. I’ve never done anything like this before.”
Rocco says, “Well, as I’ve told everyone, I have enough rubbers for everyone to use.”
“Thank you, baby.” The term leaves my lips without a second thought.
Dave meets my gaze and I feel so hot that I want to fan myself.
“So… you want to have sex with all of us. Soon?”
I nod.
He asks, “Anyone have any objections to the lady’s wishes?”
Each guy shakes his head.
Dave grins. “Good. It’s settled then. Nikki, we are at your beck and call.”
Right then and there I knew that I had done the right thing by getting to know these men. They’ve changed my life for the better.
And now it’s time to have some fun.
The sexy kind.
Rule 9: The best kind of fun is the adult kind.
Rocco’s note: As long as you use protection! Put a raincoat on it, folks! Even in the apocalypse!

Nikki
I sit back down after my speech. My hands are actually shaking, but I’ve done it. I’ve told them what I want. Dave pulls me back into his embrace.
“That was brave of you.” He kisses my temple. “Thank you for being so honest.”
I say, “I just wanted to make sure we’re all on the same page. I don’t want anyone to become jealous or angry.”
“Not going to happen.” He kisses me again. “So… want to go to bed?”
He wiggles his eyebrows and my heart turns over in response.
I say in a low tone, “I really don’t want everyone to know what we’re doing.”
It’s one thing for them to know I’m going to be sexually active. It’s another for them to actually hear the deed being done.
He replies, “Grab your blanket. I have a solution.” To th
e others, he says, “We’ll be back in a bit.”
Well that’s just great. Now everyone will know what we’re up to. But, on the other hand, at least they won’t hear us. Rocco mouths condom as I pass. I nod and pat my pocket. Dave takes my hand, leading me down the street.
“Found it while I was scouting earlier. There’s a house about a block down that I think will give us some privacy.” He pulls me close, whispering, “There’s even a bed.”
I shiver at his words and can’t deny the heat pooling between my legs. We enter the house. It’s small and looks like it was built a long time ago. We go through the living room into the only bedroom. The bed takes up most of the space, but it looks clean. Too clean.
I ask, “Did you change the sheets?”
He gives me a sheepish smile as he spreads my blanket over the sheets. “Never hurts to be prepared.”
I laugh. “Would have been funny if I said I wanted to date one of the other guys exclusively.”
He kisses me and says, “Let’s just say I had a feeling you liked me.”
He pulls me close and I moan. His cock rubs against my stomach. Reaching between us, I stroke him through his pants.
“I get the feeling you like me, too, babe.”
His lips brush mine. “Oh yeah. A lot.”
His hand slips beneath my shirt, cupping my breast through my bra. Pulling back, he tugs my shirt over my head and unclasps my bra. When he gazes at me, my nipples harden.
“Your tits are fucking perfect, Nikki.”
I grin. “I hear they taste good, too.”
The look he gives me is pure wickedness as he covers my nipple with his mouth, sucking and licking until I’m moaning his name. He stops long enough to pull his shirt off. I trace the tattoo on his chest before he latches on to my other breast.
“I never thought this would happen,” I say.
He looks up. “Why not?”
“Because I pushed everyone away.”
He kisses a trail down my stomach. “No, you didn’t.”
Desire flares through my body like a volcano about to erupt. I reach down and unbutton his pants. He kicks his boots off and steps out of his pants. His boxers are next. When he’s nude, all I can do is stare. Dave is fucking perfect.
He fists his cock, pumping it. “Are you sure this is what you want, Nikki? You can still change your mind.”
I pull the condom from my pocket and hand it to him. “This is what I want, Dave.”
I shimmy out of my pants and get on the bed while he puts the condom on. When he moves over me, my pulse pounds in my ears.
“Hey. Stay with me.”
I meet his gaze, nodding. He kisses me until I’m moaning his name. Reaching between us, he rubs the head of his cock through my folds. This time I moan for another reason. He continues to toy with me until I’m begging for more.
“Dave. I need you.”
Our tongues dance together as he enters me. My body stretches, taking everything he has to offer and leaves me feeling full and satisfied. When he moves, the feeling changes to hunger. I want more and move against him. We find our rhythm, using each other to find pleasure. My orgasm builds and I know it’s going to be a good one.
“Oh! Dave! I’m so close.”
He lifts my leg over his shoulder, thrusting fast and shallow. White sparks fire behind my eyes as I shatter. He’s right behind me, yelling my name as he comes.
“Nikki! Fuck. Yes!”
We thrust against each other until we’re spent.
I put my hand over my heart as he moves next to me. “God. That was freaking amazing, Dave.”
He grins. “Best date ever.”
We lie together, wrapped in each other’s arms. When he becomes aroused again, I grab another condom and climb on top of him.
“Ride me, dirty girl,” he says, holding onto my hips.
I grin. “As you wish.”
The next morning we go back to the campsite. The others grin at us. I’m surprised that I don’t feel embarrassed.
Harper kisses my cheek. “You look rested.”
I nod. “I am.” I pull his head down for another kiss. “Maybe we can go on a date tonight?”
His eyes darken. “I’d like that. A lot.”
Dave comes over and says, “I was thinking. We should hang around here for a few days. See if we can find resources in town.”
I know he’s doing this so I can spend time with the guys without being on the road.
Harper must think the same thing because he says to me, “Want to go on a date now?”
I nod and he takes my hand. We go back to the same house the Dave and I used the night before. Harper notices the condom wrappers on the floor and laughs.
“Sorry. I didn’t know we were coming back here or I would have picked up.”
He reaches into his pocket and says, “Don’t be. I came prepared, too.”
He has a least six condoms in his palm. Heat pools between my legs and I pull his head down for a kiss.
“Harper, make love to me.”
His eyes crinkle as he smiles. “I thought you’d never ask.”
Harper and I spend an entire day at the house. When we finally make our way back to the campsite, I know I’m falling in love with him. He confesses how long he’s liked me and I realize how far he’s gone out of his way to take care of me. He was there all along. I just never knew.
He kisses my hand before going to help Dave with a task.
Noah motions me over and I sit next to him on the tailgate.
“Dave said we’re going to stay here for a few more nights.” His cheeks flush. “I was wondering if you’d like to spend some time together this evening?”
I say, “I’d like that.”
Later, I take him to the house. Harper and I threw away the used condom wrappers, so it doesn’t look scandalous. I grin at the thought. Of course, some might say sleeping with three men in a row is the very definition of scandalous.
Noah asks, “Can I kiss you?”
Our of all of the guys, Noah is the shyest. But, there are moments when he looks at me and I know he desires me.
I say, “Yes. I’d like that very much.”
His mouth covers mine and I’m surprised at the intensity. We kiss until we’re both breathless.
He says, “I thought for sure that you were going to end it with me.”
“Why would you think that?”
“Because I have a hard time showing people how I feel.”
I reply, “I do, too.”
“But I want you to know that I like you. A lot.”
I say. “I know. I can tell.”
At his look, I reach between us, stroking his cock. He blushes.
“I haven’t been this horny since I was a kid.” He admits.
I grin. “I can relate.”
“Nikki, would it be okay if we take things slow?”
I nod. “Of course, Noah.”
“Maybe we can start out with some oral sex?”
My pussy clenches at the thought. “I’d like that very much.”
He leads me to the bed and undresses me, taking his time. It makes me feel so desired. When he undresses, I’m surprised. Noah’s cock might be the biggest I’ve seen before. By the time he goes between my legs, I’m drenched with desire. And the thought of returning the favor for him keeps me aroused until I scream out his name.
The sky is dark by the time Noah and I return to camp. Jeff and Rocco come over, grins on their faces.
“We have a proposition.”
“Yes?”
Rocco takes my hand into his. “Spend the night with us. Both of us.”
Jeff adds, “Only if you want, of course.”
I feel warm all over. You’d think I’d be sexually fulfilled at the point, but I want Rocco and Jeff so much.
I nod. “I’d like that.”
We go back to the house. Jeff and Rocco have me naked before we get to the bedroom. Their clothes come off just as fast.
; “How does this work?” I ask.
Jeff grins. “Well, there are a few ways. Rocco can pleasure you while we fuck. You can suck off Rocco while I fuck you. Or… you can take one of us in the ass while the other fucks your pussy.”
Each scenario turns me on even more.
“Which is your favorite?” I ask.
Jeff and Rocco exchange a look.
Rocco answers, “Double penetration feels the best, but we’ll do whichever you want.”
I kiss him. “Let’s start with that and then do the other positions, too.”
He lets out a whoop. “Hell yeah.”
I let them take the lead, falling into a spiral of pleasure. By the time the sun comes up we have indeed checked every position off their list. I ache, but in a most delicious way. Jeff and Rocco hug each side of me, wrapping me in warmth. I leave the bed, wrapping myself in a blanket, and go outside. I’m surprised to find a pan with water. There are fresh footprints on the dewy ground. I follow them and find Dave.
“Hey.” He turns and I go on. “Thanks for the water.”
He grins. “Thought you’d want to clean up a bit.”
“That was very thoughtful.”
He comes up to me, kissing me. “How do you feel?”
His eyes search mine and my heart melts a little.
“Happy. Sexually satisfied.”
“That’s how I feel, too.”
We grin at each other.
He says, “I better get back. Don’t want anyone to think something bad happened.”
I watch him leave. I’m not sure how I became so lucky to have five guys who care for me this much.
Jeff comes outside, wrapping his arms around me. “You okay?”
“Yes. Let’s get inside. I have something I want to try before we head back.”
“I like the sound of that!”
Hand-in-hand, we make our way back to the little house that changed my life.
Rule 10: Sharing is caring.
Nikki’s note: Obviously, I’m talking about sex here. Two guys at once. Hello! I recommend trying it at least once.
