no return.
But I knew exactly how to do the same to her in return. I reached between her legs and circled over her folds, matching her rhythm. We worked together in harmony until we were both crying out, on the brink of exploding.
She kissed me deeper, thrusting her tongue into my mouth as my fingers thrusted inside of her. “I love you, Ben,” she moaned and whimpered.
“Fuck, I love you too.” My reply was broken by my quickly approaching orgasm, which only made her ride me harder.
I clenched my fingers into her thighs, and felt her muscles contract around me. She tossed her head back with a loud moan as she shuttered. Watching her cum on me sent me crashing over the edge. I pulsed inside of her and exploded, groaning in ways I never had before.
It was all so incredibly sexy, but sweet and tender. Intimate. All the things that I never thought should go together … but with her it made perfect sense.
She draped herself across my chest as we caught our breath and let the pleasure fade slowly, but I stayed inside of her … wishing I could stay there forever. After a while, our bodies slowly melted sideways and we drifted off to sleep. And when the next morning came … no one freaked out and rushed off.

“I come bearing gifts!” I shouted out into the foyer of Nick’s home as Ben and I both burst in with our arms full.
All the kids, including Olivia, who was over two years old now, gathered around and watched as we emptied the bags, creating a pile of toys in the middle of the floor. They each dropped to their knees and dug in. Liz, Angel, and Del stood around, smiling with approval.
“You’re a lifesaver,” Liz beamed. “They’ll be preoccupied with all of those for hours!”
“We’ll actually be able to enjoy dinner in peace,” Del quipped.
“Glad I could help!” I grinned back at them.
The launch of Nesters’ new toy line had been a huge success, and my reward, aside from a promotion with a huge raise and fancy corner office, was a ton of free toys. Of course I kept a small stash hidden away for myself, in hopes of giving them to my own kids one day.
Damon and Nick came roaring into the room, running up on the kids, ready to roughhouse. But they barely noticed them with the distraction of all their new toys.
“Don’t get them all riled up,” Angel scolded them.
“Ah, you’re no fun,” Nick teased before turning to Ben. “Hey, I brought along the final papers for you to sign whenever you’re ready.”
He glanced over to me. “I’m ready whenever you are.”
“Let’s do it,” I smiled, sliding my hand into his.
We followed Nick into his home office and turned our attention to the small stack of papers on his desk. He talked us through all of the main points of the contract for the house we were buying together. A beautiful Victorian-style home just outside the city, but still close to work and all of our friends.
“You ready to join the ranks of the rest of us homeowners?” Nick asked Ben as he handed him a pen.
Ben smiled back at me and leaned over to sign. “Beyond ready. But don’t forget, I was actually the first one to buy a house. Way before any of you ever even started thinking about it.”
“Yeah, yeah,” Nick waved, pointing out the places for each of us to sign. “I’ll get these over to the sellers to finalize everything first thing in the morning. Now, let’s eat!”
We got the kids set up at a table in the playroom so they could jump right back into playing when they finished eating, while the rest of us went out onto the patio. Del had made a beautiful outdoor dining arrangement with hanging lanterns all around, giving everything a lovely soft orange glow. And of course, Angel was in charge of the food so we knew it would be delicious.
The kids did stay quiet and preoccupied as predicted. All except for Olivia who couldn’t resist sneaking out to crawl into my lap. Joey shot her a warning glance, but let it slide. I snuck her little bites of my food and snuggled her close. Ben and I still picked her up for regular playdates. I had gotten more attached to her with the more time I spent around all of them. We had definitely bonded.
Ben was still one of her favorites too. After dinner, everyone enjoyed the backyard.
