I felt as though my legs weighed a thousand pounds each as I slowly climbed up the stairwell of my apartment. It had been a week since I had last heard from either Jaxx or Leon. I couldn’t really blame either of them, since I had cut off our mutual polyamorous friends-with-benefits deal. I felt a pang in my heart as I recalled how they each demanded an explanation, and how each in their own way described why the three of us did so well together.

They were so different, but each completed me in a different way; Jaxx was more calm and level-headed, and brought me peace when I felt that my world was falling apart. Leon was more wild and dangerously protective, and lit a fire in my belly any time I was around him. They looked different too- Jaxx was over six feet tall with long brown hair and deep, deep blue eyes while Leon was just under six feet tall with caramel skin, black hair and ebony eyes. The two things they had in common was their open-minded perspective on sharing a lover, and they knew every single weakness of mine that they could use to make me absolutely melt in their rough, skilled hands.

I fumbled for my keys in my pocket and heaved a heavy sigh. I missed them so much. It was bad, and I knew it. But I missed them. I had broken the only rule the three of us had:

Do not fall in love.

I had broken it with both of them.

I rounded the corner into the hallway where my apartment was, and looking up stopped dead in my tracks. Jaxx and Leon stood outside my door, waiting for me. My heart stopped right there, and god help me, my panties were soaked through. I felt blood rush to my face as they both locked their eyes to mine. A thousand images ran through my head of not just two at a time, but Four hands roaming over my curves, two mouths teasing me, two long, thick... I shook my head violently. I had to get a grip. I lowered my gaze to the floor and marched to my door, my hand shaking as I tried to stuff my car key in to the lock. Goddamn it...

“Kitten, we need to talk to you.” Jaxx finally said. My heart sputtered again as I heard him use my favorite nickname. “T-there’s nothing t-to talk about.” I stammered as I finally shoved the correct key into the lock, but then it jammed. Fuck!

“Yeah, there is.” Leon gave my door a sharp punch and I fumbled onto my knees on the floor of my kitchen. Turning around they were standing above me, Leon kicked the door shut and crossed his arms. Jaxx stood calmly with his hands in his pockets as he spoke up. “We want to know why you blew us off, kitten. We had a good thing going. We understand if you need some more space but, completely cutting us off?”

Leon interjected “yeah! What gives?”

I didn’t know it but tears had started welling up in my eyes. Jaxx crouched down and offered a hand to help me up. “Talk to us, baby” he said gently in his deep, sexy voice. It was making my head spin.

I slapped his hand away. “I said I don’t want to talk, you can go now.” I stood up, barely holding back the floodgates and tried to walk away with dignity, but Leon wasn’t giving up so easily. He grabbed me by the arm and pinned me up against my wall, wrists pinned above my head and knee between my legs. “That’s it.” He growled. “We know what’s going on, so tell us; which one is it.”

I felt my blood go cold. “I.. I don’t know what you’re talking about..”

“Don’t lie,” Leon said. “I always know when you’re lying. You fell for one of us, didn’t you.”

I swallowed hard. “No...”

“Don’t lie, just tell us who it is! Stop toying with us.” Leon grabbed my chin and forced me to look in his direction. When he saw the tears cascading down my cheeks his expression softened up; his one weakness was a woman crying in front of him. He let me go and I slid back to the floor, curling up and burying my face in my arms. I felt Jaxx sit next to me and wrap a strong arm around me. Then he said it.

“Don’t you get it, man?” He said to Leon. “She broke up with us because she’s in love with both of us.”

My head snapped up and I met his gorgeous blue eyes. He leaned in closer, so his lips were only a fraction of an inch from mine.

“So why not just have us both... at the same time?”

My head had gone cloudy and my legs had turned into jelly at that point. “What?..” it was barely a whisper. Jaxx looked up at Leon and they nodded together, then they both pulled me to my feet, each holding one of my hands as they spoke to me. “We’re in love with you too. Both of us.” Jaxx said.

“Yeah, have been for a while.” Said Leon. “We just didn’t want to scare you by pressuring you, since this all started as kind of just a no-strings sex deal.”

“But it’s become so much more than that, Kitten.” Said Jaxx. “You have become the light in our lives. Your smile, the way you make us feel warm with just a single touch...”

“A single kiss...” Leon interjected while tracing his fingertips over the curve of my shoulder, making me shiver.

“The way you make us feel when you’re beside us at night...” Jaxx whispered into the curve of my neck, making my breath turn ragged.

“Or the way you moan our names when you’re under us, naked.. soft.. wet.. tight... oh god.. So fucking tight...” Leon was on the other side of my neck now, nibbling and sliding a hand under my shirt, expertly unclasping my bra in a single movement. They each took a rock hard nipple in their fingers as they nibbled and licked my neck. My legs were shaking uncontrollably. I had never had them both at the same time before and now my body screamed for satisfaction.

“What do you say, kitten?” Said Jaxx

“Will you be Our girl?” Leon finished.
