Hot Cocoa and Head
Everest
A fter pouring a few shots, I cap the bottle of peppermint schnapps and nestle it into the soft pile of snow to chill. My gaze is drawn to the wild flames dancing before me, their glow brightening the sky and illuminating the heavy clouds, which are blanketing us in fresh snow.
As we gather around the bonfire, taking shot after shot while indulging in a playful game, smiles bloom on everyone's lips—a sight that warms the heart. With Ember's impending departure for college, we’re eager to make the most of our time together, even though it always seems too short.
“Have you heard anything from your mother about her party?” I ask Ember, hoping against hope that she has changed her mind about us attending.
“I have, actually.” Her smile widens as she takes a shot, the fiery mint liquid swirling in her cheeks. She nods, a flicker of hope brightening the three of us.
“And what did she say this time?” Baine inquires, his voice laced with a mix of curiosity and concern.
“She told me they don't mind if you guys come.”
“Seriously?” Koda responds, bewilderment etched on his face.
“Yeah, your father too. They’re both okay with us being there now.”
A mischievous grin spreads across her red-painted lips, revealing that she has persuaded them in her own unique way—most likely through some clever blackmail or a veiled threat. I can’t help but feel a rush of pride for her courage. The tendrils of smoke spiral into the darkened sky as we share a quiet, collective laugh, picturing Ember standing up to her parents.
As the evening unfolds, the camaraderie and warmth of the fire wrap around us, soothing us against the biting cold. Eventually, someone retrieves the bottle of peppermint schnapps from the snow, and the shots keep flowing, the flames safeguarding our little sanctuary against the growing snowfall.
We linger a little longer, hesitant to break the silence as the reality of Ember’s departure looms close. I’m struck by how deeply I’ll miss these nights together.
As the fire crackles, Ember leans in closer, her voice becoming quieter, almost a whisper. “Promise me something?”
“Anything,” I respond, the sincerity in her eyes momentarily silencing the playful banter around us.
“Promise me we’ll keep doing this, no matter where we are. I don’t want distance to change us.”
Baine and Koda nod, their expressions serious now.
“We’re family,” Koda assures, reaching over to squeeze Ember’s hand. “Nothing can change that. We’ll find a way to stay connected.”
Ember’s eyes glimmer with unshed tears, but they are bright and warm—like the fire itself. “Thank you. I needed to hear that.”
As the snow begins to fall more heavily, we huddle closer around the fire, sharing whispers and laughter, and we transform the night into something magical.
Koda
Sitting here playing never have I ever—our way—I can feel a decent buzz running through me as I knock back shot after shot, anxious to hear Ember's input. Nervous; she still hasn't taken a turn, but she's up soon, and I can tell she's having second thoughts.
"What's wrong, my little Ember?"
"I'm nervous for the game."
"You've played truth or dare and been a fucking freak in bed. This isn't the thing to be nervous about." I chuckle as the statement comes out of Everest's mouth, making her smile timidly.
"Fine, but that doesn't mean anything. What are the rules?"
"Well, someone has to ask us if they've ever done anything; if we have, they take a shot. If they haven't, they have to do the thing they've never done.”
“We all know how this goes, right? I'm sure we'll all be revealing some pretty interesting things about ourselves. So, who wants to start?" I say as I give Ember a supportive smile.
She takes a deep breath and nods, signaling that she's ready. "Okay, let's do it," she says with determination. And just like that, the game continues.
We play for a little while longer, enjoying the snowfall and the crisp night air and indulging in our fun, wildest fantasies. By the time the game is nearing an end, the four of us can hardly stand; we're so drunk, but Ember is laughing, and that's always the goal.
"So, there's only a couple days until you go back to school, Em. How are you feeling about it?" Everest asks her as she gets up and sits on my lap, her arms lopped around my neck.
"I'm torn. I don't want to go back, but I know I have to."
"Who said you have to? We talked about you transferring here and staying with us."
"I know, Ev, but uprooting everything is a little scary. And what happens if something happens between the four of us and I'm not wanted here anymore?"
Me and the guys laugh, bringing shock to her face as she looks around, mouth open. "That will never happen, doll. Besides, Koda would choose you over us anyway. So if anyone were to be not wanted, it wouldn't be you."
Ember blushes and playfully swats Everest's shoulder, but her eyes are still worried. I look at her and take her hands in mine. "Em, we love you. We want you here with us, no matter what. And if transferring scares you, we can take it slow. You don't have to make any decisions right now."
She smiles at me, and I feel the tension in her shoulders ease. "Thanks, Koda. I think I just needed to hear that."
She kisses me, wiggling her ass on my lap, while Baine and Ev watch hungrily. Pulling away, she looks around and smirks, giving us all a devious look as if she wants to play.
"What's on your mind, little Vixen?"
"I was just thinking about having a little more fun." She brings her mug of cocoa to her lips and takes a sip, winking at the three of us.
"And what do you have in mind?" I ask, my hands grazing her upper thighs, her legs parting on instinct.
She licks her lips as the guys move in closer, and I can already tell what she's thinking. "Well," Ember suggests, her eyes roaming over us. "I want to make you guys feel good since you always make sure I do." The fire is crackling and the wind continues to blow, but none of us are bothered by it. Ember looks over at us, a mischievous glint in her eyes. "Let's see what other fantasies we can make come true."
The three of us exchange a knowing glance and a smirk before eagerly agreeing to Ember's proposal. As we sit by the crackling fire, we eagerly anticipate what other fantasies Ember has in store for us and begin to let our imaginations run wild, eager to explore more of our wildest dreams together. The sound of laughter and the warmth of the fire surround us as we delve into a night of boundless possibilities and endless adventures with the one we all love.
"If you want to make us feel good, why don't you get on your knees for me, my little Ember? Show us how good you are with that mouth."
She grins, licking her lips as her eyes dart to our laps. Noticing the massive, growing bulges we're all palming, she flips her hair over her shoulder and flashes us a wink.
"How about you show us what those hands can do too?" Baine says, with a gruffness in his voice.
"Fine, I'll kneel for Koda and warm your cocks up with my hands." Eagerly, she kneels in front of me in the snow, wiggling between my parted legs.
Her fingers slowly trace the outline of my cock in my jeans, making me shiver with anticipation. I watch as she slowly unbuttons them and reaches in, grabbing my dick in her cold hand. Keeping her eyes on mine, she grips my dick at the base and strokes gently, bringing the head to her mouth.
"Kiss it, baby," I order her, smirking as she swirls her tongue around the tip and presses her puffy lips against it, her hand still stroking. "Good girl. Now do your thing, my little Ember, and don't forget about Baine and Ev too."
"How could I forget?" She giggles, guiding my dick between her lips. She sticks out her tongue and licks underneath my shaft, sucking me into her warm, wet mouth.
"Jesus..." I moan, fisting her hair as she swallows me, making my eyes roll back.
Once my cock disappears down her throat, she reaches over to the guys, wrapping her hands around their cocks, never taking her eyes off of mine. Her hands pump fast, the sound of skin on skin echoing through the air, mixing with the guys' grunts and groans.
I let out a low growl as Ember's mouth works its magic on me, feeling the warmth and wetness enveloping my shaft. I can hear the sounds of pleasure from Baine and Ev as her hands work on them, and I know that I won't last long with her skilled mouth on me. I close my eyes and focus on the exquisite feeling, letting go of any worries and simply enjoying the pleasure that Ember is giving me. The snow around us continues to fall, adding a layer of tranquility to the intense moment.
"Play with the tip, doll. Don't be afraid to squeeze it," Baine pants, watching her stroke him and Ev off with passion swirling in his eyes.
I look over and watch her squeeze the tip of his cock, stroking just the head, and Baine's eyes flutter before shutting from the sensation.
"Tug on my piercings, little Vixen. That's what they're there for," Ev demands, needy and desperate.
As she squeezes Baine's cock and bobs her head on mine, she glides her fingers over Everest's piercings, tugging on the balls on the barbells.
"Fuck, that's it," he growls in a chuckle, pleasure coursing through his veins as she does it again.
Her hands go wild, stroking them how they want, ripping desirable moans from their mouths. With my hand in her hair, holding tightly, she slides me out of her mouth and twirls her tongue around my dick, licking the piercings while she looks me in the eye.
"You're doing so good, baby. Take me deeper, though. I know you can do it."
"Mmm," she moans, humming with my cock in her mouth, which makes my body jolt and my toes curl inside my shoes.
Widening her jaw, she opens her mouth and sucks me deeper, inching me further down her tight throat and restricting her air. But she takes it like a champ. Drool drips in thick strings from the corners of her mouth, and every time I thrust my hips, she gags, my swollen, pierced tip pushing against the back of her throat.
The intensity of the moment grows as Ember expertly works her mouth on me and her hands on Baine and Ev. I can feel the pleasure building within me, the sensation nearly overwhelming as she takes me deeper. The sound of our combined moans and gasps fills the air, the thrill of the forbidden adding to the intensity. With each movement, each twist and turn of her tongue, I feel myself edging closer to the brink. I know it won't be long before I reach my peak, and I can sense that Baine and Ev are not far behind.
"Fuck, Em," I pant, watching as she hollows out her cheeks from sucking while her tongue traces the pulsing vein down my cock. I thrust my hips, forcing my dick down her throat, smiling as she gags on it. "That's it, my little Ember. Gag on my dick like my good girl."
"Mmm." As she moans, I feel my muscles tightening, and I shiver, feeling my climax coming.
I push her head down and hold it, using my hips to fuck her mouth, sending myself over the edge. With a deep groan, I release into her mouth, the waves of pleasure washing over me. A gush of warm fluid jets down her throat, and I watch hungrily as she does her best to swallow it all, still letting some drip from her lips. I can hear Baine and Ev doing the same; the sounds of release filling the air.
"Fuck, keep stroking, doll," Baine begs as she works her hand faster, his cum spilling all over her fingers.
“Play with it, little Vixen. Let it soak your hand while you stroke me,” Ev grunts, giving his hips a jerk as he comes, covering her hand so she strokes his dick with ease.
“Hot Cocoa, Head, and handjobs, what a perfect fucking to spend the last night here.”
As the moment begins to fade, I find myself catching my breath, still reeling from the intensity of it all.
