We lie in bed, Kenzie in the middle of us, as we both come down from our orgasms. I haven’t forgotten about Kenz, but I doubt River could barely move after I’d claimed him. An hour later, I honestly think the boy is ready. He’s been tracing her fine as fuck tits.
I know he’s anxious. I claimed River. Now it’s his turn to claim Kenzie.
“Ize, your boy wants to take your girl. Can I? Can I take her innocence, her virginity, as you watch?”
River knows me so fucking well, and Kenz is starting to get it, too.
“Please, I want to feel him inside of me, then you.”
I don’t tell her this, but that won’t happen, not tonight. I know she’ll be sore, and we have time for me to claim her, but watching them make love to one another is honestly all I crave.
“Get a condom, boy, and treat her right.”
He’s anxious, but ready when he travels down her body, kissing every part of exposed skin he can get his lips on. He stops at her pussy. “I can’t wait until you taste her. I fucking swear she bathes in cinnamon and vanilla.”
“Yeah, I can’t wait either, Riv, but we have time, don’t worry.” I hold Kenzie’s hand. “If it hurts, hurts bad, you need to promise me you’ll tell us.”
I know it’ll hurt. It’s her first time, but I don’t doubt for one second River won’t make up for it.
His lips hit her clit, and she takes in a long breath and lets out a moan. “Riv, yeah, right there.”
“I’m going to get you wet, baby, and then push inside of you. I know you’ve wanted us for some time, and believe me, we will fulfill every desire of yours.”
This kid. I love him so much.
He continues to get her close to release, but as soon as he does, he raises his head, rolling the condom on, and I make a mental note to get tested, so we don’t have to use those fuckers anymore.
“I’ll go slow, so very slow.”
“Take me, River. I’ve loved you for longer than I can remember. I want you; I want you so much.”
He pushes slowly inside of her, but pauses where I know he’ll pop her cherry. She lets out a little whimper. “Need me to stop, baby?” he asks, and his tenderness for her, in how he caresses her cheek and waits for her answer, is beautiful. They’re so beautiful.
“Move, dammit. Move.” Well, why am I not surprised she’s bossy, too? I’m not.
“Got it, baby. On it.” He’s slow with his movements, and her plump little tits bounce up and down. I lean in, taking one into my mouth, sucking it hard.
“Yeah, there, that. Oh, fuck…” I love how she lets go, and how she does it with both River and me.
“I’m close, Riv. I’m so close.”
He speeds up, and his gaze connects with my own, as he mouths, thank you. It was only right River make love to Kenzie first. Again, it’s so beautiful, they’re so beautiful together.
“I’m coming, Riv. I’m….” she trails off with her orgasm. The kid was smart to get her close to an orgasm, making it easier for her, while he was inside of her for her first time.
With one more push, River lets loose, and he falls onto her body, keeping all of his weight on his arms. “I love you, Kenz, so much.”
It’s instinctual for her, taking her hands, cupping his face. “I’ve loved you for so long. Thank you for loving me back.”
A lump forms in my throat at their intimacy.
“Kenzie Hanson, I find it the easiest thing I’ve ever done.” He rolls off of her, toward me. I hold River, and River holds Kenzie. This is my life. It will continue, and there will be good times and bad times. But, no matter what our future brings, I will be with them, and at the end of the day, it’s all that matters.
Two sleeping silhouettes take over my bed. We’ve barely left it all day on Christmas Eve as we continue to get acquainted with each other’s bodies. Every once in a while, I left the room to get us food, or we watched some Christmas movies, at the urging of Kenzie.
I love them, I really do.
At first light on Christmas morning, I dress, leaving a note for both Kenz and Riv, telling them I’ll be back soon. I want them packed and ready for a surprise once I’m home.
I take the familiar drive to the final resting place of the man who was as much my brother as my best friend.
“Did you know?” My eyes fall to the graves, sitting side by side. “Is it why you asked me?” I fall to my knees. “I can’t imagine you’d ever be okay with Kenzie and me, let alone Kenz and River together. But you asked me anyway. This is my way. It’s all I know. And, Robert. I love them. Not for any other reason than they are fucking fantastic.”
There’s a release of sorts, with my confession to my best friend. “I’ve never wanted someone like Kenz and Riv. River can be such an asshole, and he reminds me of myself at that age. He’s tough but also tender and in need of so much love. Then there’s Kenz. We never discussed how much I loved Tanya but it’s not the reason I love Kenzie. She’s fearless, unafraid and innocent—well, somewhat.” I chuckle at my words. “I promised you over a month ago, when your last request to me was to take care of your kids, and I’m keeping my word. Maybe not in the way you expected, but I’ll forever be the person to love them, protect them and at the end of the day, it’s all that matters, right?”
I weep for the friend I’ll forever miss. I must stay in this position for over a half an hour, but now, I continue to cry for Robert, not out of guilt, and never out of regret, but for the man I’ll never share a beer with or catch a game with. “I miss you, friend, but I promise, your kids will forever be the best thing that has happened in my life.”
I push from the cold ground to get back to the two people I’d move heaven and earth for. Again, it may not have been Robert’s way, but I’ll forever keep my word, loving Kenzie and River Hanson with my very last breath.
