Chapter 14 No Audience #5
I ran my palm slowly down Vina's back, feeling the fine tremors under her skin. "Ace is right. You can stay put."
Vina looked at me. Her eyes were clear now, stripped of every party light and practiced expression. "You still want me when I stay put?"
I tightened my arm around her. "Especially then."
Her chin trembled once before she pressed her face into my neck.
Lucy saw it. She didn't call attention to it. She kissed Vina's shoulder and kept holding her.
We remained joined until my cock softened enough to slip lower inside her.
When Vina finally lifted, she did it carefully.
I eased out with a wet pull that made us both groan.
Cum followed, sliding from her pussy and streaking the inside of her thigh before dripping onto my stomach and the ruined sheet.
Vina looked down. "Fuck, that's obscene."
"You asked for it," Lucy said.
"I did." Vina's quiet smile held more wonder than swagger. "I really did."
Lucy touched the wet line on Vina's thigh with two fingers, not wiping it away, simply tracing the evidence of what Vina had chosen. Vina watched her hand and shivered.
"Still here," Lucy said.
Vina covered Lucy's fingers with hers. "Still here."
My throat felt like I'd swallowed half the lake.
I reached toward the nightstand, found the water bottle by touch, and opened it.
Vina drank first while sitting astride my thigh, naked and flushed, cum still leaking from her.
Water escaped the corner of her mouth. Lucy caught the drop with her thumb and licked it away.
Vina passed her the bottle. "That was needlessly hot."
"Hydration is serious."
"Captain Hydration. Terrifying."
Lucy drank, then handed it to me. The familiar teasing had returned, but it no longer covered the room. It sat inside the tenderness instead of protecting Vina from it.
I finished the water and set the empty bottle down. Lucy stretched carefully, wincing when her thighs moved.
Vina noticed. "You okay?"
"Very okay. Also going to feel both of you tomorrow."
"Good sore or ice-pack sore?"
"Good sore." Lucy took Vina's hand and placed it over the faint red marks on her hip. "These might need an explanation with my swimsuit."
Vina traced them with one fingertip. "I could bite the other side. Make it symmetrical."
Lucy leaned in until their mouths almost touched. "You could try."
Vina laughed softly, then kissed her. It began playful and faded into something gentler. Lucy held Vina's face. Vina's hand settled at Lucy's waist instead of reaching for another escalation.
I watched them choose the quiet together.
When the kiss ended, Lucy pulled back the blanket. "Middle."
Vina looked from the space beside Lucy to me. "You're assigning beds now?"
"I'm choosing where I want you."
That landed. Vina's lips parted, but no joke came.
Lucy drew her down between us. Vina turned onto her side facing Lucy.
I moved in behind her and pulled the blanket over all three bodies.
The sheets were damp beneath us. Sweat dried on our skin.
My cum remained warm between Vina's thighs and tacky across my stomach.
No one pretended the cum or mess had vanished when the orgasms ended.
Lucy hooked one leg over Vina's and brought their hips together. Her hand slid beneath Vina's cheek, becoming a pillow when Vina settled into it. I fit myself along Vina's back and rested my palm low on her stomach.
Vina exhaled. The sound shook on the way out.
"Comfortable?" I asked.
"Dangerously."
"Why dangerous?" Lucy asked.
Vina's eyes stayed on hers. "I could get used to being wanted like this."
Lucy stroked her thumb across Vina's cheek. "That's the idea."
Vina swallowed. "You don't do anything halfway, do you?"
"You were at the pool. You knew that already."
"I knew Ace doesn't do anything halfway." Vina covered Lucy's hand with hers. "I'm still learning you."
Lucy kissed her forehead. "Keep learning."
"Bossy."
"Tired."
"You can be both."
Vina reached back until she found my wrist. Her fingers curled around it, holding my hand against her stomach. I kissed the nape of her neck. She shivered once, then melted deeper into the space we'd made.
The cabin settled around us. Lake water moved against the shore beyond the wall. The old air conditioner rattled through another cycle and pushed cool air over the three bare shoulders above the blanket.
Lucy's eyes closed first. Her hand remained under Vina's cheek, thumb slowing where it touched her skin. Vina watched her for another minute, the last of her energy draining from her face.
"She really meant it," Vina whispered.
"Every word."
"You too?"
I pressed my mouth to her shoulder. "Every word."
Vina nodded against Lucy's hand.
Sleep took her without permission from the version of herself who would've tried to entertain us first. Her breathing deepened. Her body went heavy between mine and Lucy's.
Lucy shifted in her sleep and tightened her leg over Vina's. Vina answered without waking, reaching forward until her fingers closed around Lucy's wrist. I held them both while the last heat of the night dried on our skin.
