Page 7 of Be With Us: An Urban Foursome Love Story

‘I want to try,’ said Emilia.

She put her hand on his cheek and kissed him deeply, her tongue brushing against his. Then she pulled back suddenly, gasping, a look of shock on her face.

‘What about kissing? Can we kiss them?’

‘Yes we can kiss them,’ he said laughing.

‘Oh good, I like kissing.’

‘We should set some boundaries though,’ he said.

‘Like what?’ said Emilia.

‘Like, anything you’re not comfortable with doing.’

‘I thought about this, and I don’t know if there is much I’m not comfortable with. I mean aside from violence and choking.’

‘Well then that’s a boundary,’ he said. ‘If we meet someone who’s into that, we make it clear that that’s a hard no. Then they can take us or leave us.’

‘Ok, yeah. So no violence, slapping, choking, nothing forced. I don’t like that. And no cheating, I don't want a three way with someone's husband or wife.’

Cassian nodded.

‘Maybe they could be a little rough though,’ she said, going slightly red in the cheeks.

Cassian laughed and smiled.

‘I want you to understand why I want this though,’ she said. ‘This isn’t like, a way to cheat and get away with it. I don’t want to just steam roll you into letting me fuck another guy. And it’s not because we’ve only ever been with each other, although that is kind of a part of it.’

‘You want to share what we have,’ said Cass.

‘Yes, but it’s more than that. I want to share what we have, but also to share in another couple’s love. It’s not just about us, it’s about them too. Think about how much trust it will take for us to do this, and then remember that they will be taking that leap too. I don’t want us to just go out and fuck a couple of swingers, it might be fun, don’t get me wrong, but that’s just sex. Maybe we should do that first, but this is about making a connection. Maybe to find that connection we’ll have to shag a few strangers, but I want to feel loved and safe and warm.’

Cassian smiled as Emilia continued.

‘And I want to know what other people do,’ she said, a little more shy than usual. ‘I mean what we have is amazing, but wouldn’t it be fun to feel what other people feel? And to feel it with them? Knowing what it’s like? I’m sorry I’m rambling.’

‘I want this too. You brought this up, but it’s something I’ve thought about before.’

‘It is?’ said Emilia.

Cassian nodded. ‘It’s crossed my mind what it would’ve been like to sleep with other girls. If they’d have felt different, looked different, smelled different, all that kind of thing. And there’s girls I’ve looked at and thought, damn, that would be fun, if I wasn’t in love. But it always comes back to you. You make me happy, and you can't get better than that. So if you’re saying that you think this will make us even happier than we are now, and that we can share our love with others? Then it can’t hurt to try because we can’t go down from here,’ he held his hand up as high as it would go.

‘You don’t just want to fuck another hottie?’

‘Yes, I want to fuck a hottie,’ he laughed. ‘But being hot isn’t the only reason I’d want to do her.’

Emilia wrapped her arms around him, holding her husband tight and pressing her cheek against his chest. Suddenly she leaned back.

‘I have a book I want you to read,’ she said.

He smiled and enveloped his arms around her and kissed the top of her head, breathing deeply through his nose as he did so.

‘I love you,’ he said.

‘I love you, too.’
