Chapter 6 - Ménage à Trois

The elevator door opened and Nicole stepped into the hallway, only a few minutes from her destination. Where was she headed... ? Ugh, not important, but she has to get there quickly! She heard a door click over her shoulder, she turned to see the greasy delivery man standing only a few steps behind her, he was coming after her and she needed to get away! She ran through the open doors in front of her screaming for help, trying to find anyone because she knew that if he caught her, something bad would happen. Nicole rushed through the next set of seemingly endless doors, slamming each behind her and locking them. No matter how fast she went, he was just a few steps behind her and she could feel him getting closer. His hot breath, moist on her neck, she didn’t dare turn to look again for fear she would be caught. She slammed into the next set of doors ... but they didn’t open. She had never known such fear, crumpling to the ground, she looked up and waited for the doors to burst open and the dirty delivery guy to find her and do unspeakable things to her...

GASP!

Bursting up in her bed, Nicole gasps in a state of near panic, she looks around trying to remember where she is, only to hear soft whispers of “shhh, it’s ok” and “don’t worry sweetie, you’re ok” from voices right next to her. Nicole quickly calms down once she realizes that she is in bed between Alex and Samantha, both of which appear worried and visibly upset over the fact that Nicole had such an apparently violent and anxiety ridden dream.

THUDTHUDTHUD

Nicole’s heartbeat still pounding in her ears as the adrenaline subsides, she looks over at the clock

12:08 AM

Nicole had been plagued by these kinds of nightmares ever since she could remember. Brian had discussed it with Alex a few times, and he was of the opinion that it happened because Nicole didn’t have a “safe place” in her life. Their livelihood always being tied inextricably to their drug-addict of a mother’s ability to stay sober. Brian confessed that one time, back when Nicole was only 8 or 9, he had come home to find his mother’s drug dealing boyfriend trying to break down Nicole’s bedroom door.

Being only a few years older himself, Brian ran outside and helped Nicole open her bedroom window to escape. He never learned of anything else happening, and he didn’t know that the same drug-dealing asshole had actually touched Nicole once, in a very intimate way when she was getting out of the shower.

Nicole shivered violently. She did not like to think about it.

Samantha and Alex had an idea of what was going on - being that they had been friends with Nicole and Brian for years and Alex had previously discussed this issue with Brian, so while it was a surprise, they quickly adapted to help Nicole to calm down and feel reassured.

After their “menage a trois” encounter a few hours ago, they had all three drifted to a deep, comfortable sleep in different portions of the bed. Now, almost as if they were of the same mind, Samantha and Alex both got out of bed - Alex turned the light on and began pulling the covers and pillows together in a more organized way so that they could all be comfortable in bed. Sam went over and filled a glass with ice water and brought it over for Nicole to take a sip.

“I’m sorry” Nicole said quietly while looking down at her hands and covering her naked body with the sheet. She knew that she had just ruined this good thing that she had just discovered. There was no way that Sam and Alex would want to put up with such a broken, nightmare ridden, crying baby.

Alex’s eyes met Samantha’s, both of their hearts melted at the same time. Alex propped a few pillows up at the headboard and got back into bed, sitting in an upright position against the pillows. “Nikki, comere” he said, taking her hand in his and guiding her to the crook of his arm. Nicole immediately embraced the safety she felt being nuzzled up next to him. Before she had time to think, Samantha was there on her other side, sandwiching Nicole between herself and Alex.

“Nikki,” Sam whispered to her “there is nothing you need to be afraid of”, Alex squeezed her tight to him and completed Sams thought “we will protect you. You are ours now, and we love you”

The last thing that Nicole remembered was hearing “Let her go” by Passenger coming on someone’s phone as they turned some music on.

“I’m so embarrassed” Nicole said to Sam as they both were putting the finishing touches on their makeup and outfits for the day. Sam was in front of the mirror doing her mascara, she glanced over at Nicole, “Don’t be sweetie, we meant what we said last night and there’s nothing more to it, you really don’t have to give it a thought” she finished with a reassuring smile.

At 5’1, Sam was considered on the short side, but she still loomed over Nicole by a good 6 inches. Both having pleasingly proportioned bodies, Samantha could be Nicole’s older twin sister, if twins could be born 3 years apart

“Well, if you say so” Nicole quietly nodded in acquiescence.

“Enough of this talk!” Sam suddenly exclaimed, “I need some dick” she said, matter-of-factly as she turned and opened the door to the bathroom where Alex was showering. Sam paused just before going in, looked at Nicole and said “ ... forgive my bluntness. I just feel like theres literally no point on beating around the bush with the 3 of us. Were all kinda in this together now ... right?”

Unsure of how to react to such a bold statement, it was a few moments before Nicole realized that Sam was waiting for some kind of acknowledgement from Nicole before continuing into the bathroom. She looked at Sam and said “I ... uh ... I mean...” not sure what she should say, she just stammered and glanced back and forth between Samantha and the open bathroom door leading to a naked, soaped up, tanned and toned gift to women named Alex.

Seeing the confusion and hesitation in Nicole, Sam said “Look at it this way - Alex and I are dating. Alex and you are dating. You and I are dating. We are all in this equally, so if you have something to say - then say it!”

“I just...” Nicole started to say “ ... nothing, nevermind”.

Samantha pulled the door shut again, hearing Alex mutter something about letting cold air in, then walked over and sat on the bed next to Nicole.

“Don’t worry about it sweetie” Sam said to Nicole as she grabbed her hand, “we’re all new at this. We don’t have a road map ... we’re going to have to learn this all together”

This seemed to reassure Nicole, as she visibly brightened and started to smile.

“Thanks ... I ... don’t want to feel like a burden to you guys. This is just ... weird”. As soon as the word left her lips, Nicole went rigid with fear, thinking that she may have just insulted her friend, she looked into Sams eyes and saw ... wait, was that laughter? Sam was laughing at her!

“Oh STOPPIT!” Sam giggled, “you’re so adorable, I just can’t even” she said as she stood back up and headed to the bathroom door again.

Noticing the change in demeanor that Nicole had when Sam headed towards the bathroom again, she realized that Nicole might be having some issues with the idea of “sharing” Alex as a lover. “This ... might be a problem” Sam said to herself. “But for now lets just lighten the mood a bit”

Sam reached the bathroom and opened the door, calling inside to Alex “Hey Brother mine, are you almost done?”

“Yes, whats up? Did Brian finally text saying hes ready to be picked up?”

“No” Sam said a bit loudly as to be heard over the shower, but looking at Nicole all the while with a mischievous grin developing “there are just two supple, naked girls out here and we were wondering if you could come give us both a good fucking before we go out”

SCREECHTHUDBANG

“FUCK!” Alex yelled as he slipped in the tub and pulled the curtain down around him as he fell.

By the time he had his wits about him again and started to untangle himself, he looked up and saw two beautiful angels standing in the doorway ... and ... laughing at him!

“WELL THAT was RUDE!” Alex said in mock exasperation as he attempted to stand in a somewhat dignified manner, which was severely hampered by the soap suds dripping down into his eyes and the rubber ducky sponge he was clutching in his left hand.

The encounter had the desired effect for Sam. She watched as the tension just kinda evaporated between her and Nicole concerning Alex, she realized that Nicole had grabbed her hand and as they stood there all laughing at the predicament, Sam thought that today was indeed going to be a great day.

After they were all dressed in warm clothes and ready for the day, Samantha, Alex, and Nicole all left the hotel and headed to the campus again to just soak in some of the atmosphere. Brian still hadn’t contacted Alex, but that was hardly surprising. The three of them had a bet as to when Brian would actually wake up and text someone for a ride - Nicole was betting after 3PM.

As they walked, they talked and found a small kind of game that they could play here since no one else knew who the three of them were, they could all take turns holding hands and no one would be the wiser! This made Nicole very happy because she found herself craving the touch of the other two people, but when she got to hold Alex’s hand for a few minutes, she nearly swooned each time. She was in love. Not just with Alex, though the sexual feelings were more geared towards him, likely it was just because he had been the one to really make love to her for the first time. The times she had done it before were always awkward and unpleasant, the guys stuck their dicks in her and it was almost immediately over, she had never really understood or appreciated it before last night.

Around 8:30 the trio stopped for coffee. It was quite busy even with all of the snow on the ground. As they were waiting for their orders, Alex was chatting up the barista trying to get any “insider information” they could give. Alex always had a way with people, and it SO irritated Samantha sometimes.

“I mean, I can get a free coffee, but normally I have to flirt or show some cleavage or offer to blow the guy or something, but this fucker gets us 3 free drinks and a lead on an apartment just by batting his eyes” Samantha vented to Nicole in a half heartedly angry way. But there was no real anger there, she just loved everything about him.

As they walked away in the direction that the barista had pointed, Alex said “Man, aren’t people just the nicest sometimes?”, both the girls look at each other with this look that just says one thing. “Ugh Men”

“Sam LOOK at this place” Alex said, if this isn’t the perfect answer to every question we didn’t know we had, I don’t know what is!”

Sam looked at him, “ ... ENGLISH motherfucker! Do you SPEAK IT!?” she yelled in homage to Samuel L Jackson’s famous line in the movie “Pulp Fiction”

Alex stopped and thought about what he said, “Hey, don’t sass me woman!” he then directed towards Samantha in a playful way. “But seriously, this place is basically perfect! Two bedrooms, two bathrooms, 5 minutes from campus, utilities included, all for only $400 a month!”

“Yeah,” Sam replied, “if you work at the university. Otherwise it’s $1,800 a month, why do you keep on leaving out that tiny detail?”

“Just humor me for a minute, ok?” Alex turned to the two girls and continued, “what do you hate about this place?” he asked, looking at both girls in turn.

“There’s no yard, you know I like being able to go outside but still have privacy, a backyard is the perfect thing. That’s like the one thing I didn’t want to compromise on, I’m gonna miss our backyard.” Sam said

“What about a garage?” Nicole added, “where will you park your car?”

Irritated, Alex said “ok fine” and just walked out.

The girls stood there, having expected more of a conversation or at least a bit of an argument, but he just left. Hurriedly the girls scampered out after him, not knowing what was happening or if he really was upset with them.

He was not upset, Alex simply had a plan and thought it would be a bit of good fun to keep the girls guessing for a bit. When they reached the car, all three got in and Alex looked at both girls in turn, giving each a wink and a grin that they had both come to adore.

“Where are we going now?” Nicole asked

“I don’t know, I thought we would just drive around a bit and get to know the place. I’m kinda over the snow at this point” Alex said

“Can you sit back here with me Sam?” Nicole asked

Excitedly, Sam replied “Of course sweetie!” As she unbuckled and climbed over the center console in the front to get to the back seat next to Nicole. As Alex drove slowly and they all got to take in the sights and sounds of the local college town, Nicole leaned against Samantha and nuzzled into her arm while quietly holding hands. Alex glanced in the rear-view mirror a few times and found himself enraptured by the innocent beauty that seemed to exude from the two nubile young girls. He found himself flashing back to the night before, wishing he had been able to see both of the naked girls in full light during the heat of passion, rather than having to imagine it while being under the covers with the lights off.

As they drove through the town in lazy, irregular patterns, each of the three took turns discussing interesting sights or activities they see around town. Nicole saw a poster for modern dance classes that she thought would be great fun, Samantha appreciated the way that the snow was framing all of the old buildings, thinking it was just the quaint, picture-perfect town that one might see in a postcard.

Having driven around for the last few hours, the trio was ready to get out of the car and stretch their legs. Alex called Brian’s cell phone and surprisingly got an answer!

“Yo! DUDE Where the FUCK were YOU last night?! Hahaha maaaan you are gonna hate me when I tell you all the shit that went down here last night. I swear, at one point we were all skinny dipping in the pool and I was wearing this tight-ass blonde as a belt. A FUCKING BELT. LITERALLY!” Brian hurridly said without letting Alex get a word in edgewise.

“Oh lovely, just what a sister likes to hear” Nicole said loudly so that the cars microphone would pick up her voice.

“Oh ... fuck. Heyyy so im on speaker hi um ... ladies?” Brian said in an overly awkward attempt at humor.

“Yeaaahhh...” Alex said, “you classy sonofabitch, anyways where are you? Are you ready to go yet, cuz were done checking out the college and want to get back to the hotel for lunch and maybe some more pool time”

“Hmm one sec, im in a bedroom ... somewhere. I think someone is cooking downstairs, give me a few to find my clothes and see ... well whatever the fuck is going on here. Ill call you back.”

“Were going to the hotel, just let me know when you need another uber” Alex sighed into the speaker

“Roger that” Brian said, followed by a click on the speaker.

Samantha gave an involuntary squeeze on Nicole’s hand.

“I know right?! And I LOVE the waterfall!” Sam exclaimed to Nikki over her shoulder as she entered the room. “I think we can even swim at the base of it, but I’m not sure”. Nicole and Sam each were at their respective bags/dressers going through clothes looking for their bathing suits. “What did Alex say he was doing?” Nikki asked Sam

“He didn’t say, now that I think about it” Sam replied, pausing to consider. “He just said he needed to stop by the front desk”

“Whatever”, Nikki said, turning so her back was to Samantha, then taking off her shoes, socks, and the rest of her clothes to change into the swimsuit. Samantha didn’t turn around away from Nikki because she was more comfortable with the situation at hand, having disrobed in front of many other girls before at school, it wasn’t a big deal.

Nicole had her bikini bottom on and was in the middle of wrapping her top on when she noticed that Sam was looking at her in the mirror. Blushing fiercely, Nicole started to cover herself in a reflexive move, but then slowed and forced herself to be more confident. She returned Sams gaze in the mirror, making her eyes search Samantha’s body, to become more comfortable.

ClickSnick

The door to the room begins to open and both girls realize they are still half naked and quickly finish dressing. Alex enters the room unobtrusively, having noticed a small bit of tension when he came in. He appreciated the girls bare bodies momentarily before they were covered again, but decided to keep his thoughts inside in case he had misread the situation.

“I went and got some recommendations from the chicks at the front desk, they had some good suggestions for food nearby that isn’t listed on the hotel’s book” Alex said, tapping the small booklet that the hotel had placed in each room in an attempt to showcase local amenities. So I hope you guys don’t mind, but I ordered us some food and it should be here in about an hour so we have time for a swim.

“Good!” Sam said “Sounds great!” said Nicole

Alex got to the dresser and began searching for his swim trunks, the girls were both dressed and ready so they headed towards the door. Nicole had her very lovely two piece suit on with a bunch of Hawaiian flowers all over it, and she was wearing a half-towel around her waist for modesty. Normally those half sized towels are only enough to use as a hand towel because they don’t wrap around a fully grown adult, but with Nikki’s petite frame, the towel was able to wrap fully around her waist and covered just enough so that you couldn’t see her vagina if she were naked underneath. Tastefully done and Alex had a difficult time taking his eyes off the subtle shifting of the towel around her ass as she walked towards the door.

Then he glanced over at his sister, and god damn was she breathtaking! A light blue bikini top that covered her breasts individually, but left very little to the imagination, as the fabric perfectly cradled her 36 DD breasts in such a way that Alex was glad he would be in the water when she got wet for the first time, because he was sure he would have a raging hard-on upon seeing her glistening and dripping. Moving his eyes down from her ample chest, Alex took in the rest of his sister. From her tight belly down to her visible camel-toe, down her inner thighs and to her perfectly pedicured feet. His sight was suddenly interrupted as Sam threw a towel around her waist and winked at Nicole. Sam saw that Nikki wasn’t looking at her, rather she was distracted and staring at the prominent bulge pushing at Alex’s pants.
