Brie slid in next to me with Tobias squeezing in to the front next to her. It had become the natural order of things: Brie sandwiched between us.
This was a different kind of trip, though.
I couldn’t think of a single thing to make the mood lighter, so I stayed quiet.
We all did. I threw the car into gear and pushed it as fast as it could go through the snow.
I navigated the sleet and the snow, along with the debris that had blown onto the road.
No one else knew these roads like I did; they didn’t know this car like I did either.
This was my one thing. I could contribute too.
Being the joker was only useful when there was nothing to do, but in a crisis I felt helpless. Now they needed me, and I was going to get us there.
Brie stared ahead; she didn’t look over at me when I changed gears, and she bounced around when I hit bumps in the road.
I caught Tobias out of the corner of my eye, his fingers wrapped around the grab handle and his jaw tight.
For once, our mission was real. There was no playful competition, no room for coming out on top.
It was just something that had to be done.
Lexi going missing and then turning up sick had shaken something loose in me.
I always said I lived each day as if it were the last, carpe diem and all that, but I didn’t actually believe every day could be the last. There would always be a tomorrow.
But Brie had taken a tumble down a hill.
Anything could have happened to her. Then Lexi wandered off and fell somehow.
She got sick. We didn’t have the medicine for her.
‘Normal’ could change in an instant and not always for the better.
The road wasn’t well lit, but up ahead I could see a tree trunk lying in the middle of the road.
I swerved to avoid it. There was supposed to be enough room to do that.
It wasn’t a risky maneuver, but for some reason, the truck leaned to the right.
It might have been the sleet; I couldn’t be sure.
I held on to the steering wheel and tried to keep us on the road, tried to keep us moving forward.
But we were stuck halfway into a ditch. I stepped on the accelerator hard, trying to push forward. The truck whined, and I tried again.
Brie and Tobias turned to me wide-eyed and panicked. It was getting dark. We had left Lexi in the cabin with Gideon, desperate for the medicine we had to bring back with us, and now we were stuck.
“Damnit, Gunner!” Tobias shouted, slamming his palms on the dashboard. “Couldn’t you see that log? Were you distracted again?”
I was shocked. How could I not be? I thought we were all on the same page, all doing everything and anything we could to get Lexi that medicine.
“We didn’t hit the log. I saw it. I swerved, but the tire's caught on something. It could have happened to anyone,” I snapped. “And had you been driving, we wouldn’t have even made it this far.”
I saw the fire in Tobias’s eyes. I leaned across Brie and pulled my beacon out of the glove compartment. It had a signal that would let patrols in Salmon know we were in trouble and where we were. I switched it on and put it on the dashboard.
“You can’t get anything right, can you?” Tobias started again.
Before either of us could get going, Brie cut in.
“What the hell is wrong with the two of you? You’re really going to scratch at each other right now? Like we don’t have more important things on our minds,” Brie hissed.
Even our breathing became quiet. She was right, but more than that, she was fierce.
Her gaze raked over both of us, her nose scrunched in disappointment.
She was beautiful. So I kissed her. I didn’t think about it, or maybe I had been thinking about it for so long that every other thought was secondary.
And now that my mind was black and shaken, it was all I could actually think about.
Brie pulled back. She wasn’t alarmed, she wasn’t angry anymore, but she did want answers.
“I’m so tired of pretending and playing it cool,“ I admitted. “I love you, Brie, and I can’t imagine a life where you’re not around anymore.
If the last few days have taught me anything, it’s just how quickly and easily things change.
” I didn’t know what to say after that. I had said everything, but still felt like I should say more, explain myself.
The car was quiet again for what felt like a full minute, but in reality was probably just a few seconds. Then Brie lunged forward and kissed me back, her fingers crossing behind my neck.
“I… I love you too,” she said, her voice trembling. “All three of you. I know it’s weird. It’s not how things are supposed to be, but since we are being honest, that’s my truth. I want you all in my life equally.”
It was quiet again. It wasn’t what everyone expected. It wasn’t anyone’s dream to be caught in some love quadrangle, but that’s where we were and there wasn’t another web I’d rather be caught in.
Tobias nodded his head slowly, looking at Brie, then past her at me. He held Brie’s hand tenderly and gently pulled her into a kiss. Soft, gentle, and instead of making me angry or jealous, it just felt right, not just for Tobias to kiss her, but for me to be there too.
We were stuck on a road everyone else knew better than to take at this hour, and it would be a while before the patrol came for us.
I held Brie’s hand, and when she turned to me, I kissed her neck and unzipped her jacket.
I slowly unwrapped the warm layers of her clothing and trailed kisses down to her breasts.
I slowly freed them from her bra and took her nipple into my mouth, gently squeezing it between my teeth.
She turned her head to kiss Tobias, and his hands found her other breast. I could glimpse his hand kneading it while I unbuttoned Brie’s pants.
She undressed Tobias, her fingers moving quickly and skillfully over each button of his shirt before turning to unbutton mine.
I made more room for us in the tight confines of the car, lowering the back of Brie’s seat until it touched the back seat of the truck. I leaned over her and whispered in her ear, “Are you comfortable?”
She nodded, and I nipped at her earlobe.
I lowered my backrest until I was lying next to her with her hands unbuttoning my pants. Tobias pulled her pants off and quickly buried his head between her thighs, as if he had been craving her for too long and couldn’t hold back.
My dick pulsed, engorged and growing while Brie struggled to free it from my briefs.
She moaned, finally having it in her palm. She held it, clenching her grip as she moved up the length of my shaft from sack to tip. Her hands were surprisingly warm, still soft, smooth and determined to milk the pleasure from me.
Brie moved her hand up and down, collecting the moisture from my tip and using it to glide her hand over my cock. She moaned as Tobias pushed his fingers into her wetness.
Overwhelmed by her building orgasm, Brie loosened her grip on me.
Her body tensed, shaking with desire as her mouth opened in an ‘O’ I couldn’t resist. I shifted up to the top of the seat and thrust my dick into her mouth.
It pushed past her tight lips and into her warm, inviting mouth, rubbing against her tongue and pressing against the inside of her cheek.
The soft, slick flesh pressed against the head of my cock and sent waves of pleasure coursing through my body.
I thrust my hips forward again, fucking her mouth.
We’d taken over, and she loved every second of it.
Tobias’s fingers moved in and out of her pussy, coated in her glossy juices. He spread them over her shaved mound as he massaged her clit before entering her again, making her gasp.
I held her neck, flexing my hand with her breath to increase the intensity of every sensation. My cock filled her mouth, rubbing against the inside of her cheeks, dipping toward the back of her throat, gagging her as she writhed and thrashed against Tobias’s hand.
I straddled Brie’s face, punching my cock deeper into her throat, slowly moving in and out of her while I caressed her breasts. She tilted her head and ran her tongue over the seam of my balls, prodding at the sensitive spot at the base of my cock before moving to take me into her mouth again.
“Fuck, you’re so fucking hot when you do that.”
She strained to take more and more of me into her mouth until she gagged.
I reached for her thighs and spread them to make room for Tobias.
He positioned between her knees to thrust into her.
Slowly at first, going deeper and deeper into her with every thrust until he buried his dick all the way.
We moved forward and backward. He pushed in as I pulled out, and pulled out as I entered her mouth.
I reached over and ran my finger lightly over her clit, balancing my weight on either side of her head.
I circled her clit, spiraling my finger toward the sensitive tip.
I touched it and she jerked up to meet my finger.
She moved and wriggled like a snake, grinding and thrusting her hips as her head bobbed up and down on my cock.
I rubbed faster, tracing circles on her clit while Tobias fucked her, and she sucked me.
She was getting closer again. The small spasms shaking her body grew harder, more tense, stronger.
She gurgled around my cock and arched her back, trembling beneath me.
Her juices spilled out of her pussy and trickled down the crack of her ass.
Tobias pulled out of her and rubbed the juices down from her pussy to her tight hole. He circled her puckered entrance with his finger, teasing it, then entered it with just the tip, wriggling it inside her.
I grabbed the back of Brie’s thighs and pulled her legs towards me, spreading them, offering more of her hole to Tobias. She wriggled her ass, encouraging him until slowly he pressed into her, gasping as he did. He stroked into her slowly, inching into her while she whimpered.
I ran my tongue over her toes, making her squirm. I took her big toe into my mouth and swirled my tongue over it. She copied my movements, sliding her tongue over the tip of my cock to send a jolt through my body I had never felt before.
Tobias gasped at her tightness, her clenching as he moved in and out of her. He couldn’t take much more. He grunted and pounded into her, plowing her ass until his climax tore through him.
We pulled out of her simultaneously. Tobias lowered his seat and lay down next to Brie. He kissed her, and it made me throb.
I crawled down between her legs and slid my shaft into her. I glided into her easily and pushed myself in to the hilt and lingered in her pulsating warmth. I dug into her, pushing in and up toward her belly, drawing a hum of moans from her.
Tobias sat up with her head in his lap.
Brie licked at his cock, staring into my eyes as her tongue moved from the base to the tip, only closing her eyes once she’d taken him into her mouth fully.
She hummed her pleasure around him as I stroked in and out of her pussy.
I ground my hips, stroking her walls with my cock as I moved in and out of her slowly, setting a controlled rhythm.
I felt the first tremors of my own climax start to build and leaned back as far as I could, but Brie wasn’t letting me get away.
She thrust her hips to meet me, swinging her body back and forth, taking control of our pace.
She moved in fast, shallow strokes, fucking the tip of my dick in a succession of thrusts before pulling me deep into her and pulsing her walls to vary the sensation.
She started to moan and thrash. I pressed on the bottom of her belly and thrust into her frantically, overcome by the tension building in my balls.
I pushed into her, groaning with every breath.
Faster, deeper. She spread her legs as far as they would go, and I felt like I was deeper in her than ever before.
Her walls tightened around my dick, squeezing and wringing me out until I was breathing in quick, short breaths.
Every muscle in my body twitched, tightened, and just as I reached the point of no return, heat burned through me as the first shots of my release fired.
“What the—?" Tobias sounded alarmed.
I was still jerking and twitching when a flashlight blinded me from the back of the truck.
