Page 24 of Overdue Feelings
Ares nodded his head toward Zae, and Zae threw his hands in the air.
“Don’t put that shit on me. That was yo’ idea.”
“Lyin’ already. You were the one that broke the lock on the bathroom window so we could crawl out.”
“You gave me the wrench though!” Zae said, and I shook my head while they went back and forth like two kids caught in the principal’s office. I damn near choked laughing, wiping a tear from my eye.
“Y’all got in-school suspension for a month, and I never got my ice cream.”
“Hey, we tried.” We all burst out laughing. Somewhere between the drinks, the memories, and all the emotions I’d been holding in too long, I slid right into Ares’s lap without even thinking about it. Maybe it was the whiskey, or the way my body was calling out to reconnect with his. I didn’t know, but once I was there, I didn’t move. I couldn’t. My eyes shot to Zae. He was watching. His jaw clenched, but not in anger… in curiosity. He took another sip of his drink before standing up and closing the blinds on the sun porch.That’s it. He’s about to kill us.I attempted to get up and start pleading my case, but his words made me freeze.
“I brought him here for a reason, Creek. Go ahead. I want to watch you get what you’ve been needing.”
“I broughthim here for a reason, Creek.” I leaned back in the chair, legs open, cup in hand, voice low and steady. “Go ahead. I want to watch you get what you’ve been needing.”
She blinked, like she wasn’t sure if I was serious. I was dead ass serious. I’d thought about this for a minute. Way longer than I’d ever admit out loud. I’d spent too many nights pretending I didn’t hear her whisper his name in her sleep. Too many mornings watching her move like she was holding her breath. The truth didn’t scare me anymore. I’d made peace with it. I loved Creek and she loved me, but she also loved Ares. He had a part of her that I didn’t, and vice versa. I used to want her to choose, but that would mean that one part of her would beempty, always longing for the other. Nah, Creek needed to be loved fully, and I was man enough to support that.
“Zae… you’re drunk,” she said softly, eyes bouncing between me and Ares.
“Maybe.” I shrugged. “But a drunk mind speaks a sober heart.” I nodded at her. I wanted this as much as she did. “Let him touch you.” Her eyes locked with mine, searching for my something she wasn’t going to find—doubt and jealousy. “Kiss him.”
She moved slow, nodding her head like her body was checking in before her brain could talk her out of it. She swung one leg across Ares’s lap, straddling him. Her sundress rose over her thighs. Ares froze, his arms hovering above his head like he was scared to want this, to want her, but I saw it in him. I knew he did.
“Go ahead. Reconnect with her,” I commanded.
He looked at me. “Zae, I ain’t trying to overstep.”
“You’re not. I’m sharing.”
He looked at me one more time before clenching his jaw and letting his eyes roam back to Creek. I could see the lust taking over both of them, and I liked it.
“Can I have you, C?” he asked her, his face close to hers.
“Yes,” she moaned, and he pulled her into him, kissing her like it had been on his mind for years. I watched as she opened her mouth to allow his tongue in before melting into him, her hips rolling in his lap like she was in heat.
“Shit!” I grunted as I watched them. There was no jealousy, just pride. Ares may have been her first, but I’m the one who showed her what her body could do.
“You’re so fucking beautiful,” he complimented breathlessly, his hands roaming her body.
I offered for him to, “Explore her.”
She was already wet. I could smell her sweet ass scent from over here. Ares slid his hand underneath the top of her dress and popped her titties out before cupping them and sliding his tongue across her erect nipples.
“Ooh.” Her moans filled the sun porch, and I just sat there watching. My dick was hard as fuck. I stared at her as she unraveled.
“Tell him what you want, Creek,” I demanded.
Her eyes fell on me, and I could see the heat between them. Having me here was turning her on. She nodded at me.
“I want you to fuck me.” Her beautiful brown eyes never left mine as she rolled her hips across his lap.
“Tell him!” I pointed to Ares, and she turned her head.
“Fuck me please.” She moaned, tugging at Ares’s shorts. He lifted her slightly and freed his dick while she pulled her dress all the way over her ass.
“Reconnect with her.”
Ares slipped his hands beneath her thighs and lifted her with ease, guiding her down onto him. A collaborative moan escaped both of their mouths.
