Heidi (I Dare You Book 1) (5 page)

“It would help if I could actually reach your cock.” Rafe writhed again as Nathan worked his way up, nipping and then sucking on his nipples to soothe the sting. “If it means you’ll stop teasing me, then yes, you selfish bastard, but I’d better not be disappointed.”

Without saying a word, Nathan’s fingers stilled and then he slowly removed them from Rafe’s ass. He slid back up his body and kissed him hard. His tongue plunged in with the force of his excitement as Rafe met him with equal desire.

“I’m not letting you go until you tell me what you’re willing to do. I want you to talk dirty to me. I want to hear you tell me that you want to suck my cock. I want to know you want me and what you’d like me to do for you.”

Nathan’s bold statement shocked yet excited him. Rafe was used to being the one in control, but decided in this case he liked being dominated. It was turning him on even more, if that were even possible.

“From the moment I first saw the two of you, I wanted to fuck you both, but since Heidi can’t join in our festivities tonight, I plan to enjoy our moment together. I want to suck your cock, Nathan, to make you scream out for more as you fuck my mouth. I’m going to stroke my cock just like you asked, because I’m so fucking excited right now with your teasing, I fucking ache. Then when I’ve made you come, I plan to bend you over this bed and fuck you hard, so be prepared.”

At the mention of Heidi’s name Nathan’s expression changed, and there was more fire and desire in his gaze. Rafe wasn’t sure if that was a good thing or a bad thing, but it looked like he was about to find out.

“Come here,” Nathan growled, practically ripping the restraints from the bedpost and freeing both of Rafe’s arms. Rafe leaned forward immediately, doing a little teasing of his own as he licked and sucked at Nathan’s balls for a little payback.

Nathan growled again and leaned back while he enjoyed how Rafe’s mouth worked him. He allowed it for a few minutes and then pulled away to get off of the bed. He stood in front of Rafe now. “Get on your knees, I need you.” He beckoned him to come forward.

Rafe listened well and lowered himself to the floor in front of Nathan. He grasped the base of the other man’s dick with confidence and started to stroke it.

“Lean back against the bed,” Nathan whispered, and Rafe did as he was asked again. He smiled. “Now suck me. Take my cock and make me feel good. Let’s show Heidi how much we did enjoy each other.” Nathan didn’t wait for Rafe to respond as he laced his fingers into his long hair and plunged his cock deep inside his mouth. “It’ll teach her to fucking mess with my head. She loves me, pff…” He hissed and then continued to rant. “Like I don’t fucking love her right back, right? I’ll fucking show her. Stroke your cock for me, Rafe. Fucking show me with your hands how you’d like to have your cock satisfied. Come for me, baby, that’s right. Picture my mouth there, picture fucking me like I’m fucking you right now.”

Rafe moaned. All this Heidi talk surprised him, but he was so aroused from earlier he didn’t care about much other than feeling some sort of relief. So he closed his eyes, picturing Nathan fucking Heidi’s mouth instead of his own while Rafe plunged deep inside her wet pussy. With all this talk about her, he figured why not fantasize about the original night planned, and it didn’t take much to take him over the edge. His cum spurted upward and landed all over his stomach, chest, and hands while he growled with satisfaction.

Nathan’s hips pumped harder in an effort to reach his own peak, as if seeing Rafe’s cum drip down his chest made him want the same. Rafe could feel his balls tighten, and he could see Nathan’s excitement mount within his expression until he couldn’t hold it any longer. The man roared and hadn’t seemed to realize he screamed for Heidi until it subsided, and it just made things awkward.

Rafe pulled his mouth off with a pop and smiled to lighten things up. “Heidi, huh?” He chuckled, and the sound of it made Nathan’s body tense in defense.

“Fuck you, man!”

“I believe you just did. Well, at least my, mouth anyway.” Rafe smiled again. “Look, Heidi’s a great woman, and if you don’t make your move soon, one of these days it may be too late. Hell, I’ll be glad to take her if you don’t want her.”

Nathan lunged at him but missed when he stubbed his toe on the bedframe, and it only succeeded in making Rafe laugh louder as he put on his clothes. “Fucking some more is obviously not going to happen tonight. Let me know when you get your shit together, and maybe we could have that threesome sometime. Just one more word of advice before I go, because I’m such a nice guy. Listen to what that other girl told you earlier. Stop fighting it and remind that roommate of yours how much you love her already, because you’re kidding yourself if you don’t. Oh, and I was serious about wanting Heidi for myself. Think about it.”

Nathan cursed and punched the wall out of frustration as Rafe shut the door, and he smiled all the way back to his apartment.

He’d love to make his move on the lovely redhead next door, and now that Nathan knew it, he figured maybe it would be the push the man needed to finally do something about making her his.

It was certainly entertaining enough to watch where his matchmaking efforts were heading.

His good deed was about to be done, or so he hoped.

She staggered as she tried to make it up the stairs. Heidi cursed as she fumbled.

When Heidi had left her apartment earlier, she hadn’t known where to go. She had ended up calling Zoey and met up with her at a local pub to drink away her sorrows. Now it was late, and she was wasted. Too pre-occupied with her drunken thoughts, she hadn’t been paying attention to her surroundings until her face came in contact with a body sculpted to perfection.

His pajama pants hung low over slim hips, and she gasped as she looked up to meet his smug smile. Rafe clearly knew the appeal he had on her, especially right then. She was vulnerable, but she composed herself long enough to smile back. “What are you doing out of your apartment so late, and half-naked, might I add?” Her gaze trailed from his head to the tips of his toes, lingering on the impressive bulge in the middle. “Not that I mind the sight in front of me.”

“Why, thank you.” He smirked. “Tonight didn’t turn out like we planned, and I wanted to make sure you were all right.”

“You can say that again.” Heidi groaned and looked away. “Although I’m sorry our plans changed, I’m completely mortified you had to overhear our little argument. I guess I was stupid, huh?” She smiled and then exhaled before looking at him again. “I hope your entire night wasn’t ruined, though. I mean, at least you got to enjoy Nathan and Missy, right? My loss, your gain.” She sobbed.

“My night wasn’t ruined at all.” He reached for her hand and tugged her forward. He kissed her on the forehead. “I guess I’m just hoping for a continuation. Why don’t you come inside, and I’ll make you some coffee?”

“I’m not sure I’m in a good position to give you a continuation, although coffee does sound tempting.”

“Then just coffee it is. Now come on.” Rafe put his arm around her shoulders and nudged her in the direction of his apartment. “When I spoke of the continuation, I was talking about that threesome I was promised. Missy left right after you did, but now that you mention it, I sure wouldn’t mind a solo session sometime. Just say the word and I’m yours, sweetheart. In the meantime, I’ll settle on making you some coffee. I’ve been pretty lonely tonight. Nathan wasn’t up for anything more than a little taste play, and although satisfying, it’s still a tease.”

Heidi nodded, but she wasn’t sure what to say to that. Although it was a relief to hear the other woman didn’t stick around. It still pissed her off that Nathan had ruined her surprise. Nathan’s treatment toward her felt like a slap in the face, yet she had no right to be jealous. He hadn’t made her promises of forever. So why was she? “Did he at least let you fuck his mouth right back?”

“Oh, sweetheart.” Rafe laughed and closed the door to his apartment behind them. “I love that you’re so bold with me, and I can’t help but be turned on. I just figured since I was there, I might as well make myself useful. He was pretty upset and looked like he could blow off some steam, and what better way, right?”

“Is it bad that I’m jealous?” Heidi cleared her throat. “I mean, I spent hours planning our night, and you got to taste without me. I would have loved to watch, to participate—and he had to be such a jackass.” A stray tear streaked down her cheek, and she wiped it away quickly. “I’m sorry, Rafe. I didn’t mean to drag you into this.”

“I’m glad you did.” He pulled her towards him again and caressed the side of her face. “You love him more than you say. Any fool can see that. You need to stay strong, and I know you guys will figure it all out. What you have is amazing, and if he’s too much of a dumbass to see it, then it’s his loss, sweetheart, and maybe my gain.” He wiggled his eyebrows and lifted her on top of the counter.

He stepped between her legs and took advantage of the opportunity by seizing her lips. Their tongues met in a mutual passion. Hers derived from anger, and his seemed to be with want. She was breathing heavily when they pulled apart, and she came back to her senses. What her body wanted, her mind resisted.

“I’m sorry, Rafe. I just don’t think I can be with you like this right now. Ugh, I think I drank way too much, and I’m not feeling so hot at the moment.” She bit her bottom lip. “How about that cup of coffee?”

“Sure thing, sweetheart.” He stroked her chin, and then smiled before stepping away. “Your coffee is coming up.”

“Thanks!”

They talked, laughed, and to her embarrassment she even cried a little more, but Rafe was amazing to be around and the last thing she could remember was falling asleep in his arms.

When Nathan woke up the next morning, he was shocked to find that the coffee wasn’t already made. Heidi usually spoiled him by having it ready, knowing how much he enjoyed his first morning cup. In fact, she hadn’t come home at all. Her bed hadn’t been slept in either.

Last night, Nathan had come home pissed he hadn’t gotten that promotion he worked his ass off to get. He was employed with a small ad agency, and he had worked double time to land them a big account, and that was the thanks he got for it. He’d been with them for six years, and this was the wakeup call he needed for a change, but what change? He’d royally fucked up. He’d taken a bad day and used it as an excuse to hurt the woman he loved because he was afraid of the unknown. Heidi was his best friend, the only woman he’d ever thought about having a relationship with.

She surprised him, though, and he was beginning to think he’d underestimated her. Although he already knew she was the forever kind, he always thought Heidi would be more reserved and prissy. There was a whole other side to her when he took her to bed, though. She had an inner dirty girl she unleashed, and he loved that she could keep up with him and obviously aimed to please.
Shit!
He threaded his hands through his hair and looked toward the ceiling, knowing he might be too late to fix this.

You’re an asshole Nathan. Fuck!
He threaded his fingers through his hair out of frustration. Rafe was right; she was damn near perfect, and if he didn’t get his head out of his ass, someone else was bound to come along, and he couldn’t let that happen. His heart swelled with determination to win her back, but it also shattered at the thought of losing her because of his dumbass temper and stupid fears. There just was no future he wanted without her in it, and he was damn well going to remind her she was it for him.

He was vulnerable now, but he didn’t give a shit what it took to win her back. Over these last couple weeks, they’d become closer. Nathan fell in love with her more and more every day. The simple kisses, conversations, and hell, even the cuddling while watching TV that she loved so much. Those little touches of intimacy… man, he missed them already. It was amazing how just a few short hours could fuck it all up. He’d buy her flowers every day after work just to let her know he’d been thinking of her. They’d talk about their days during dinner and express their love every night in bed. Some nights were wild with hard fucking, and the others had been about making sweet love to her. The thought of an eternity with Heidi or anyone scared the hell out of him, but the thinking about losing her felt so much worse. He wanted to kick his own ass for starting all of this.

Last night, Heidi had planned one hell of an evening, and when she left it had pissed him off, but it wasn’t until Missy left too that he had finally clued in to what an ass he was being. Her words had hit home.

After Heidi had told him to enjoy himself before she left, he let his frustration out on Rafe without thinking too much about it. Who was Nathan to turn down a hot, naked, willing man in his bed? But then he’d spent the rest of the night upset by a bunch of things. His life had just gotten way more complicated than it needed to be, but right now all that mattered to him was seeing if he could salvage what he had with Heidi before it was too late. The thought of her with Rafe, or anyone else but him, had his skin crawling and blood boiling. Would she forgive him, though?

His arms flopped to his sides, and his shoulders slumped in defeat as he sipped the worst coffee he’d ever tasted and cursed. Where the fuck was she? And did he have a right to be upset she hadn’t come home to him after everything he’d done?

****

When Heidi came home from work, she was exhausted, but upon seeing a puff of black smoke coming from the kitchen, she suddenly had a burst of energy.
What in the hell?
She rushed forward and brushed past Nathan to the source. She involuntarily coughed as she opened up the oven door to see what was inside. After quickly turning off the stove, she put oven mitts on and threw the charred pot in the sink to cool off.
