A Part of Us (2 page)

“Why, Annie?”

Annie slid into his lap and he didn't
resist.

“Derrick, what do you feel for Sam?”

“How can you even ask me that, after
everything?”

Annie rolled her eyes. “This is not jealous
Annie asking. I guess I'll start by telling you how I feel about
Sam. Do you remember last night when you asked me if my laying on
top of Sam made me wet?”

Derrick nodded. “I wasn't being seri...”

Annie stopped him with a hand over his mouth.
“The answer is yes. But it wasn't just Sam. It was
you
and
Sam. I know what your relationship is with her and I respect and
admire it. This isn't just sexual. I've started to feel about Sam
the way I feel about you.”

“So, what are you suggesting?”

“We, and by we, I mean you, Sam and I, are
already best friends. We're already affectionate. I want to be with
both
of you. Unless I'm wrong and you aren't in love with
Sam as well. You think you hide it, but I see the way you look at
her. I see how you smell her hair and bury your face into her
neck.”

Derrick started to shake and put his head on
her shoulder. “How long have you known?”

She grinned at him. “Since the
beginning.”

“But why...”

Annie cut him off. “Because you're worth it.
You're both worth it.”

“What if it doesn't work out? I'll lose both
of you.”

“It will work out. Think about how we are
when we're all together. We have more fun and never run out of
things to talk about. She makes us complete.”

Derrick felt the hope start to well up in his
chest. He'd been hiding his feelings for Sam since he was about 16.
She meant more to him than anything else in the world and thought
that being her friend was the safest way to keep her in his life
forever.

“How do we convince Sam?”

“We show her,” Annie replied with an impish
grin.

Ben Bradley opened the door to a nearly
hysterical Sam. “Oh my god, Sugar, what happened?”

Ben's partner, Alex, walked up behind him and
gasped. Neither had ever seen Sam cry. Sam was everyone's rock.
Alex, being the big muscle-man that he was, scooped Sam into his
arms and walked her to the couch, where he sat her between
them.

“Sam, talk to me.”

“It's over. I can't believe after everything,
it's over.” Tears and snot were running down her face and Ben
motioned Alex to get her some water and tissues.

“I know it's hard right now, but I need you
to try to take a deep breath and tell me everything.”

Alex returned and wiped Sam's face before
giving her a hand-full of tissues. Sam took a deep, sobbing breath
and a sip of water.

“You guys have met Annie, right?”

“Yes, she's a sweetheart.”

“I kissed her tonight, and Derrick walked in.
Well, she kissed me, but that's beside the point because I didn't
stop her.”

Ben looked knowingly at Alex. “How was the
kiss?”

“It was mind-blowing. Her lips were so soft
and she was so responsive...wait, what does that have to do with
anything?”

“How did Derrick react?” Alex asked.

Sam paused. “I don't know. I ran out.”

“Sweetie, how long have you been in love with
Derrick?”

“Why are you guys asking these questions? I
kissed his girlfriend, hell, his almost-fiance!”

“Bear with us, sweetie. How long have you
been in love with Derrick?”

Sam let out a frustrating sigh. “I don't
know, since I was a teenager.”

“And why didn't you ever tell him?” Alex
asked.

“What are the chances that we would have
lasted? We've been best friends for more than two thirds of my
life. Nothing, and I mean
nothing
is worth taking a chance
on destroying that.”

“And how do you feel about Annie?” Ben
asked.

Sam hiccuped. “No one has ever made me more
serious about exploring my bi-sexuality. She's everything I look
for in a woman. She's so special and she and Derrick deserve each
other.”

“Honey, have you ever seen how Derrick looks
at you?”

“What do you mean?”

“I think Derrick feels the same way about
you.” Alex said gently.

Sam growled. “But where does that leave
Annie?”

Ben sighed and pushed the hair out of her
face. “You'll just have to talk to them about that.”

“So, you don't think it's over?”

“No, sweetie, I think you completely
overreacted and you need to talk to them. And by overreacted, I
mean jumped off the deep end.”

She sniffled and laughed. “I guess that was
pretty out of character and hormonal, wasn't it?”

Alex laughed his deep laugh. “Oh yeah, you
rivaled one of Ben's tantrums with that one.”

“Oh shut up, you!” Ben said, endearingly.

“Now, you get all dolled up for work and
we'll go in with you. We were planning on heading to Jade tonight
anyway. We'll dance with you on your break. And Sam,
you
deserve them, too.”

“Thanks, guys, I love you.”

“We love you too, sugar.” Ben and Alex both
kissed her on the cheek and swatted her butt as she left the
couch.

Chapter 4

“Are you sure about this?” Derrick asked
Annie as she put the finishing touches on her sparkly makeup.

“Yep, we both love her and we're going to get
her.”

Derrick took a deep breath and refused to
hope too much. “Okay, let's go.”

Annie ran her hand over Derrick's ass. “All
of the boys are going to want to eat you up in your leather
pants.”

Derrick snorted out a laugh. “They'll have to
get in line, then.”

The drive to club Jade was filled with
tension and anticipation.

The bouncer waived them to the front of the
line and through the doors with a wink. Sam was loved by everyone
and they received special treatment by extension.

The music was throbbing through the club and
it was packed. Derrick looked for Sam behind the bar, but found Ben
instead. Ben caught his eye, winked and tilted his head, looking in
Sam's direction.

Sam's eyes were closed and Alex gyrated
behind her with his hands on her hips. A bolt of jealousy shot
through Derricks gut. For one thing, Alex was one hundred percent
gay and for another, Derrick had never allowed the jealousy to come
to the surface before. He felt shaken up and out of his comfort
zone.

Alex made eye contact with him and smiled. He
waved Derrick over with his head and smoothly transferred Sam's
arms from around his own neck to Derrick's.

For the first time, Derrick truly reveled in
the press of his body to Sam's. He tipped his head down and spoke
directly into her ear.”

“Hey, Sammy.” He punctuated this by running
his hands over her perfect hips and grinding his erection into her
ass.

He felt Sam stiffen. “Just dance,” he
whispered. He pushed her hair aside and nuzzled her neck. He felt
her hands begin to massage his scalp and couldn't help but
groan.

The song changed to something more slow and
sultry and he gently turned her around and put her arms back around
his neck. He noticed her red eyes and kissed each one. He gently
slipped his hands under the back of her shirt to feel her warm skin
and nuzzled her temple.

“Why?” he heard her ask.

“Why what?”

“Why are you here? Why are you doing this?
Where's Annie?”

He looked directly into her big, green eyes.
“I'm here because you ran out of the house. I'm doing this because
Annie finally brought to my attention that I've had deep feelings,
more than brotherly feelings, for you, for years. And Annie is over
there waiting for us to make up before she comes over.”

“What if it doesn't work?”

“What if what doesn't work?” He knew exactly
what she was asking, but wanted to hear her take on things.

“Whatever we're doing. What if it doesn't
work?”

“If, and that's a huge if, whatever we decide
to do doesn't work, we were friends first and will be always.”

With that, he tilted her chin gently up and
for the very first time, pressed his lips to hers with feeling.
They both breathed in sharply through their noses and froze before
the passion took over and they started exploring with their
tongues.

The song sped up again and their hips
followed without breaking their kiss. Suddenly, Sam felt a small
body press up to her from behind and small hands reaching up to cup
her breasts. Her breath stuttered into Derricks mouth and she felt
Derrick's groan as he realized what was going on.

“Let's go home,” Derrick said.

“But the bar...”

Derrick looked over to Ben who was bouncing
and clapping and Alex waved them on from beside him. “We've got
this,” he mouthed.

Chapter 5

The mood hadn't lightened when they reached
the apartment. They all stopped and looked at each other for a
moment before they headed for Derrick's bedroom.

Annie pulled Derrick back and whispered in
his ear. “She was yours first. Go.” Annie headed to the recliner in
the corner and curled up, ready to see the chemistry played
out.

Derrick turned to Sam and took her face in
both hands before kissing her with all of the tenderness that he
possessed. She responded in kind for a moment, but then seemed to
go feral. She backed him up to the bed and pulled her clothes off.
She traced his ink with her hands and and felt his abdominal
muscles twitch when she traced them with her tongue. She ran her
fingers under the waistband of his leather pants and felt the tip
of his cock reaching up to her fingers. She frantically unbuttoned
the pants and caught his cock as it fell out into her hand. She
pulled the pants to his hips and pushed him to a sitting position
on the bed.

Derrick stared down at Sam and felt like he
was dreaming. The feeling of her hands was so different from
Annie's, but just as amazing. She looked into his eyes and buried
her face into his balls. He felt her tongue at his perineum and her
gasp as she found the guiche. Her look turned wicked and she took
the guiche between her teeth and gently tugged. He cried out and
grabbed her head in his hands. She trailed her tongue all the way
up the underside of his cock and sucked the head in.

“Sam, baby, suck me, please.”

She tortured him for a moment more before
taking him all the way to her throat and swallowing around it.

“Stop, stop. I'm not going to make it. Get up
here, it's my turn.”

Sam swirled her tongue around him one more
time and stood. He removed her clothes without teasing or
hesitation. As her bra came off, he buried his face into her
breasts and covered her nipples with his thumbs.

“They're not sensitive,” she whispered. He
gave a light pinch and though her nipples stood at attention, there
was no reaction. He kissed each one and removed her panties before
gently pushing her back on the bed. He sat on his knees and just
stared at her perfection. She was the opposite of Annie with her
wide, luscious hips and breasts that fell slightly to the sides as
she lay on her back.

He shucked his pants the rest of the way off
and pressed his body on top of hers. He kissed her deeply, nibbling
on her lips before pressing soft kisses all over her face. He
trailed his lips down her chest and stomach before pausing between
her legs to breathe in her scent. He used his thumbs to gently open
her and groaned at the wetness that he found there. He inserted one
finger and it was immediately sucked in by her incredibly tight
vaginal muscles.

“Oh god, baby, how long has it been?”

He started pegging her g-spot before he
allowed her to answer and deep grunts started to flow out of her
mouth.

“Ugh...god...can't...long...time.”

He removed his finger and sucked her arousal
off, groaning at the taste. He looked over at Annie who was
watching with rapt attention and had one hand in her panties,
rubbing her clit. Annie made eye contact and mouthed, “take
her.”

“Sam, are you on birth control?”

“Mmm-hmm,” she said with glazed-over
eyes.

“This isn't a one time thing and I don't want
anything between us. Is that okay?”

He watched a shiver go through her body. She
nodded. “Just go slow at first.”

He positioned himself at her entrance and
stretched over top of her before slowly pushing in. He watched her
eyes flicker open and closed and he rested his mouth above hers so
that their lips were touching and they could feel each others
breath.

He started with slow, shallow strokes and Sam
grunted when he bottomed out. He pulled back slightly and pegged
the same spot again to receive the same reaction.

“More,” she said before digging her head back
into the pillow and exposing her neck.

He sped up slightly and was rewarded with
louder sounds.

Suddenly, Sam dug her nails into his ass.
“More, dammit!”

Holy shit
, he thought.

He sat up on his knees and grabbed her thighs
tightly before giving her what she asked for and pounding into her.
Sam's back arched and a low, deep groan began. He felt her start to
flutter around his cock and had to bite his lip to keep control.
Her groan turned animalistic and she screamed, stripping her throat
as she began squeezing his cock so tight that he couldn't move.

“Shit!” he yelled as he felt his orgasm
ripped from him. He heard a squeak and turned to see Annie's body
locked in her own orgasm.

He collapsed on top of Sam, careful not to
crush her. She ran her hands up and down his back as her body
twitched in aftershocks. Amazingly, his cock stayed hard inside
her.

*

Sam couldn't believe the orgasm and intimacy
that she just experienced. It was the most amazing sex that she'd
ever had in her life.

She felt the bed dip and saw Annie come over
with a huge smile.

“Are you okay, Annie?” Sam asked, concerned
that they had gone too far.
