Page 97 of Holding On to a Hero
I spit and rinsed. “I know what you mean bythat, but I just assumed Will…well, I think we all get along really well spending all day and all night together. I guess I was hoping he would move in with us at the ranch.” I cocked my head toward the door to make sure Will was still on the phone and couldn’t hear us.
“That’s what I want too. But maybe we should find out if that’s whatWillwants?”Fuck. I put my hands over my face and groaned.
”You’re right. Sorry. I feel like I’ve got a million priorities pulling for my attention right now. I’m glad you’re making sure I don’t screw this relationship up.”
Cole hugged me from behind. “Someone has to keep you in line. Let’s talk to him about it now.Just so he knows where he stands.”
But we were a little too late, I realized as soon as we walked back into the bedroom. When Cole and I had gone into the bathroom, Will had been relaxed against the pillows on the king-sized bed. Now he was sitting upright, one hand clenched around the phone and the other making a fist on his knee.
“I told you, Ally, I don’t know. It’s not something that has to be decided right now anyway. There’s a bad guy to catch first, remember?” Ally did some talking, and Will’s free hand now covered his eyes. “That’s between me and Jason and Cole, Ally.” Another pause. “Yes, it’s serious. I already told you that.”
Okay, that was enough. I moved to Will’s side and sat down on the bed. He startled and blinked at me. “Can I talk to her?” I gestured at the phone.
Will gave a wry smile and handed it to me. Cole slid into bed on Will’s other side and pulled him into an embrace. I put the phone to my ear.
“…just feel like you’ve been through a lot and you should come home with me and Abby. She misses you – we both do.”
“Hi, Ally, it’s Jason.” She gasped. “Sorry, Cole and I just walked in on the last bit of your conversation with Will. He looked a little tense, so I asked him if I could talk to you.”
She let out a long breath. “You mean, he was about to hang up on me because I’m trying to run his life again, and you stepped in to protect him?”
I laughed. “That’s probably more accurate.”
“I’m sorry. It’s just, ever since we cut ties with our parents, Will and I have relied on each other so much and I don’t want him to get hurt.”
I reached out and took Will’s hand. “I’m sure he appreciates that, but the three of us have to have some time to figure out our relationship.”
“I understand that, I really do.” Then her voice sharpened and the protective sister/corporate executive came out. “Will said he told the two of you he was falling in love with you but only Cole had the balls to say it back to him.”Well, fuck.
“That’s true. Cole is much more comfortable being emotionally vulnerable than I am.” I winked at Will. Fuck his sister if she thought she could try to get me to say something to her before I said it to Will. Ally spluttered on the phone and I kissed Will’s knuckles.
“And you should also know, Ally, that after we catch the shooter Cole and I want Will to come live with us at the ranch.” Will’s mouth fell open. But then he squeezed my hand and his smile was blinding.
Ally was not nearly as happy. “What? Isn’t it a little soon for moving in together?”
“Well, that’s really Will’s decision, isn’t it? But don’t worry, you and Abby are welcome to come visit us anytime, and we’ll figure out how he can continue to help you care for her while you’re at work. I know he doesn’t want to miss out on that.”
Corporate Ally had been replaced by inarticulate Ally again. “Well, I, uh, I – “
“Hey, Ally, we’ll talk to you next week after the interview. Take care.” I hung up.
As soon as I tossed the phone onto the nightstand, my arms were full of Will. “You want me to move in with you?”
“Of course. It’s the only way we’ll be able to spend enough time together. I can’t imagine being apart from you after this.”
“Thank fuck.” He kissed me. It started out tender and slow, but quickly turned into a passionate, full-throttle make-out session.
“Well, shit. I guess it’s time to get naked.” Cole had the right idea. Will and I tugged at each other’s clothes, not wanting to release our lips. We ended up stretched out on the bed with our pants and shirts shoved out of the way so the important bits were exposed and pressed together. “Since you two are occupied, it’s my turn to take charge of this sexy time session.” Cole moved behind Will to remove his pants. Based on the lapping sounds I heard next, combined with Will’s loud moaning, Will was getting rimmed. I pulled Will on top of me so I could more easily hold his ass cheeks apart. Cole groaned his appreciation.
“Jason, this is so hot. You have no idea,” Cole muttered. After a few more minutes, Will gave a whine and Cole chuckled. “Sorry, Will. It’s Jason’s turn now.”
Cole pushed at our bodies until Will was on his back with me between his legs. He pulled my knees wide and arranged Will’s legs over my thighs, leaving Will’s back flat on the bed. Our cocks lined up perfectly.
“Cole, give me some lube.” I reached my hand back but Cole slapped it down.
“Not yet. I’m in charge right now.” I went for plan B and rubbed the precum from Will’s slit over his cock. Will made a “Nngh” noise and bucked against me. The lube bottle squelched and I felt Cole’s fingers at my hole.
“Your turn, babe.” I jerked as he went in with two fingers right off the bat. He let me breathe through it but didn’t waste any time adding a third once I’d relaxed.
