“I’m alright, baby. Just new is all.” He kisses the palm of my hand and sooths my knuckles, releasing a sigh of relief from me.
“I know... and it’s ok. We’ll take it slow. Baby steps if that’s what you need. Ok?” I arch towards him, tilting my head so that he can claim me with his brothers.
He hesitates at first which gives me pause. Can he really do this? Is this too much to ask? Am I pushing for too much, too fast? I promised that we’d take it slow. Take things at his pace. If this is as much as he could do right now, then that’s enough for me.
Jax shakes his head, clearing his mind, and nods. “Baby steps.” He says, taking my mouth with his. Bringing his hand up to my jaw, he then swiftly moves it to tug at the roots of my hair at the back of my head as we deepen the kiss. Our tongues tangling with each other’s, blocking out everyone else in the room.
I feel a new pressure at the side of my face and realize it’s one of the other guys’ faces leaning into mine. I open my eyes slightly and see Hawk. He’s inches away from having his lips touch Jax’s and is just staring at him with a huge smirk on his face. He, then, proceeds to kiss my neck, my jaw, my cheek. Unable to help himself as he inches closer and closer toan unaware Jax. The proximity of their faces to each other is enough to make my pussy clench.
Fuck me, why is that so hot?
“Holy fuck, Aly, you taste so good.” Hawk says making Jax’s eyes fling open to see Hawk closing in next to him. Jax moves back far enough to still be holding me but to be at a safe distance away from an overly eager and overly affectionate Hawk.
“HOLY... WHAT THE FUCK, HAWK!” Jax yells, startled at his friend’s close proximity. It seems to be all in good fun though because in the end Jax is shaking his head and laughing at Hawk’s antics. “Crazy ass son of a bitch.”
“Aw, come on. You know you wouldn’t be able to resist her either. What? You jealous? Want some moochies, too?” As if adding the cherry to the top, Hawk puckers his lips in Jax’s direction and starts making smoochy sounds. I can’t contain my laughter at this point and it comes barreling out of me in a loud, embarrassing bark. Tears streaming down my face and everything.
“Yea, yea, yea. Get outta here.” Jax starts to move away to find his clothes in the mess on the floor while Hawk and Cole both get up from the bed, looking for mine and tossing me the pieces as they find them.
“In all seriousness, we should probably go. Sooner rather than later. I’d love to have a cuddle party with our girl and all but I’d rather not do it in the house of a dozen corpses. Starting to smell like rancid ass out there.” Cole reasonably brings up.
“Yea, speaking of, where the hell did Rambo go? It’s a fucking mess out there,” Hawk says, tossing Jax his leg holster.
“Had to do what I needed to get her back no matter what it looked like. Believe me, they all deserved what they got,” Jax mutters, side-eyeing me and sending me his strengthand compassion through the look. Both Hawk and Cole nod in return. We stay silent for a few minutes as we finish getting dressed.
Eventually, Jax suggests we clear the house of supplies and load them up in one of the trucks out front. Thankfully, the guys choose the truck thatdoesn'thave blood sprayed all over the dashboard.Gag.
Cole was right, the place is a mess. I didn’t get a glimpse of it on our way up the stairs last night but now that I’ve seen the total extent of everything I missed outside? Holy hell... Who the hell was I with? John fucking Wick?!
At least you’re safe...
“Well, that’s for damn sure.”
“What’s up, beautiful?” Cole says from the driver’s seat and I suddenly realize that my little chat with myself was out loud. I shake my head to get my mind focused. While Cole’s driving, Jax’s in the passenger seat, petting Sadie on his lap as she angles her head out the window. Hawk, however, leaped at the chance to be in the back with me and is set to offer me all the cuddles I could want.
“Nothing. Nothing. Just. Thank you. All of you. For coming for me.... Again.” They all respond to that. Their words overlapping each other's.
“Of course, sweetheart. Why wouldn’t we?” Hawk says, as bubbly and effervescent as ever, smothering the side of my face with light kisses.
“Beautiful, you’reoursnow. Remember? We take care of you no matter what,” Cole says looking in the rearview mirror, his hidden dominance coming out for a peek.
“Baby doll, I’d burn the world down to make sure you’re safe. I don’t think that should be a question in your mind after you’ve seen what I can do,” Jax says, turning around in his seatto give me a soul possessing look that makes me melt even further into Hawks arms.
These boys. Thesemen. How did I get so lucky? I traveled by myself, down the span of the East Coast, during an apocalypse- I should be dead by all accounts- to findthem. Or rather they found me. Serendipity doesn’t even cover the coincidence behind that. Fate. It was fate.
It takes us a little while to get back home. Holy fuck,home. It was now officially my home. A complete one, with Jax now. Holy bejesus. It was real now. I have three boyfriends. I HAVE THREE BOYFRIENDS.
And you haven’t even had anal yet.... like ever... talk about unprepared...
I can feel my eyes bug out of their sockets like one of those goofy emoticons. Luckily, I’m too tired to worry about it too much right now. The insanity and lack of sleep from the night before finally catching up to me.
We pull up to the house, file out, grab the supplies we nicked from the river cabin and drag ourselves up the steps and through the doors. We’re all pretty wiped from the looks of it, but the guys seem to already be tending to their roles with me in the center of it.
Jax wanders off, muttering something about getting food and bringing it upstairs, while Cole and Hawk practically carry me up to Hawk’s room. I’m not sure, at first, why they choose his room without any communication on the matter, until Hawk opens the door to his bathroom. I had yet to be in his room, normally opting to camp out in mine since it was neutral territory, but I could see myself hanging out in here now that I see what he’s been hiding all this time.
A huge garden tub sits there in the corner of his bathroom like it was just a normal thing to have. Hell, it probably was for them. Did Cole have a garden tub too andI’ve just been too dick-matized to notice anything besides their rippling pectorals? Sheesh, I needed an intervention.... No fuck that. I like the dicks and I like surprises. Bring it on.
Hawk leaves my side at the door to turn on the water while Cole goes to his room, bringing his med kit back with him a few minutes later. He dumps his bag on the counter and saunters up to my side, gently taking my chin in his hand and turning my face away from him, prodding at the large bruise forming at my temple and cheek.
