Page 39 of A Lesson in Deceit
Grayson tapped my nose ring. “I always miss you.”
I pressed my lips together, readjusting my slouchy crop top and settling back on the couch. River came to sit down next to me, turning his body so he could face us. The room got quiet and the tension was almost like a physical entity in the room with us. I could hear myself breathing and I needed someone to say something…soon.
River cleared his throat, moving his eyes to Grayson. “Did you watch Riley and me have sex?”
I nearly choked on air.
Grayson sucked his teeth, placing his elbow on the armrest. “Starting off strong, are we?”
“Rip the band aid off,” River said, never looking away from him. He placed his hand on my leg, squeezing.
“Okay.” Grayson looked over at me, a tiny hint of smile on his lips before looking back at River. “Yeah, I did. Not the whole thing, but some of it.”
I stared down at my hands. “I know I’m supposed to be really angry about that or something, but I’m not.”
“Howdoyou feel, Riley?” River asked, his voice was deep but careful.
“I liked it…I think.”
River laughed softly. “No, no. No ‘I think’. We aren’t going anywhere while you consider things. Did you like it?”
I swallowed, taking all my thoughts so far into account. “I did. I liked it.” I let out a heavy breath. “I liked it a lot.”
River nodded, moving his hand up and down my leg. “What do you think that means for you? Where do you want to go from here?”
“Don’t tell us what we want to hear either,” Grayson added, rubbing his fingers over his mouth.
“I knew you were there and I…I liked you seeing me like that. I just wish that you could…” I pulled my legs up and close to my chest, feeling happy about being open for just a small moment, but I wanted to close myself off again.
“Wish I could, what?” Grayson pressed.
I turned my head to look at him. “You told me that the question I should focus on was if you were the type that just likes to watch or would you want to be involved. Well, I’m asking you, which is it?”
Grayson pressed his tongue into his cheek, flicking his eyes to River. I looked at my boyfriend who gave nothing away but simply nodded his head towards me. Grayson put his hand on my knee. “You want me to be honest?”
“Yes.”
His lips melted into a smirk that had my heart thumping and heat coursing through my body. “I don’t mind standing back and watching you because, fuck, are you something to watch. I liked watching you gag on his cock and how your pussy just took every single thrust beautifully. I won’t complain if that’s how you want things to be Riley. I’ll be happy to jerk off watching you get fucked whenever you want, but that’s not all I want.”
“Hmm, and what is it thatyouwant, Grayson?” River asked scooting closer to me, moving my braids over my shoulder so that he could stroke my pulse point with his thumb.
“I want to be involved. Maybe not all the time, but I want to share you sometimes.” He moved his hand to my shoulder, moving my braids and touching the other side of my neck.
River leaned down to speak in my ear. “Now is the time to use your words, gorgeous. You say no and we’ll stop and move on. We can watch a movie or I’ll take you back to the dorms.” He reached up and turned my head so that I was looking at him while his eyes bore into my own. “If you say yes…if you say you want both of us, our hands, our mouths and both our cocks to make you feel good, then we’ll do whatever you say. We’ll spend all night making you come.”
I slowly moved my legs down and tried to keep my sharp breathing in check. My cheeks felt hot and I could feel so much wetness pooling between my legs I was almost embarrassed. I wanted him to kiss me, but all he did was wait.
My lips were drier than normal, so I stuck my tongue out and licked them. River’s eyes watched the movement, never letting up on the way his thumb stroked my neck. “It’s okay to be greedy, saying you want both of us, gorgeous.”
“I do…” I started, tentatively placing each of my hands on their legs. “I do want both of you. I want you both to touch me, but I also want you to want each other.”
River lost his bravado for a moment but rallied. He stopped touching my neck and moved his hand to my thigh, sliding it so close to where I was aching and then back down to right above my knee.
“What gave her that idea, hmm?” Grayson said playfully.
“She asked, so I was honest.”
I squeezed their legs, getting them to look at me. “I still want you both regardless, but if at some point you just so happen to kiss or find yourselves wanting to fuck each other, then I want it to happen.”
