Chapter 50

"Hey, how are you feeling?" April asked as Zara flopped into the passenger seat of her car. Her friend was dressed in a crop top and tight jeans, and was wearing her hiking boots. Her red hair was pulled back into a half-pony and she had her sunglasses firmly planted on the front of her face.

"Why the fuck are we doing this?" Zara sighed dramatically, looking over at her friend.

"Because I need to keep making a good impression on the important people in Oliver's life," April said. "And you're important in

my

life, and mixing social circles is part of a real relationship."

"But I don't even

live

here," Zara groaned, putting a petulant little whine into it on purpose as she smirked. "Seriously. We could spend a Saturday doing

us

stuff. Or, since all these 'important people' are gonna be busy with these plans, we could go over to Oliver's and run back Thursday night."

"I guess you aren't feeling 'like my pussy is a gaping cavern, you monster-cocked cunt-ruiner,'" April said with a smirk, mimicking her friend's voice almost flawlessly.

Zara rolled her eyes. "No. I feel

much

better than yesterday morning, thank you."

"Oh, please," April snorted. "You felt pretty fucking good yesterday morning, too."

Zara smiled a little, thinking back twenty-four hours. Waking up the first time sandwiched between April and Ollie had been nice, even if she'd had to wriggle her way out so she could go empty her bladder. Waking up that second time though had been sheer luxury. Oliver's cock had been half-hard and pressing against her ass, and she'd started licking April's cleavage until her friend had woken up and fed Zara her nipples. Once Oliver had woken up and realised what was going on he'd

really

woken up and Zara had gotten a fantastic early morning screw and a nice little pick-me-up orgasm before both she and April had gotten under the covers and tag-teamed sucking his giant prick until he'd come.

Then they'd cleaned up, gotten dressed and went out to breakfast at this cute little cafe before Ollie had headed to work and she and April had fetched April's car to head home.

"Oh, shit," Zara said, her face dropping a little. "I forgot to tell you. The girl he lives with, the one who was working at the coffee place-"

"Hikaru?" April asked.

"Sure," Zara nodded. "I got up in the middle of the night to pee and kinda ran into her waiting outside the bathroom."

"Oh," April said with a little frown. "Well... I guess that's... kind of awkward."

"I was butt fuckin' naked," Zara clarified.

"Uuugh," April groaned. The only reason she wasn't more dramatic about it was because she was driving. "Zara, that's so much

worse.

"

"Well, how was I supposed to know she'd be up at four in the morning?" Zara argued. "Are you trying to tell me you would have gotten dressed to go pee?"

"No, but I'm his

girlfriend.

And I've

met

her before at least."

"Well, it happened," Zara said. "And I didn't want to bring it up around him."

"She's going to be with us today," April said. "Like, if you'd given me some warning I could have called ahead of time to apologise or something. Mitigate how... fucking awkward this could be. What if she told Margot and Hannah?"

"I still don't know who these people

are,

Ape," Zara said.

"Margot is his neighbour," April said. "She's like... picture a blonde cowgirl and you pretty much have the right mental image. They haven't known each other for a long time but they're good friends. And Hannah is his oldest, longest friend. She's his Zara. She's this short blonde, super athletic, and totally the opposite of him but in all the right ways and history to make them practically inseparable."

Zara groaned, rubbing her hands over her face and under her sunglasses. "OK," she mumbled. "You do realise that like

everything

you just said is a major red flag, right? His best, oldest friend is a hot athletic chick and his second-best friend is a hot cowgirl. If we have to fight these bitches for him we're probably gonna get our asses handed to us. I mean, I'll cut a bitch for you, but if he didn't fuck like he does I don't know if he'd be worth it."

"The sex doesn't make it worth it,

he

does," April said. "And I've met them both, they're polite and nice and are setting this whole thing up so we can get to know each other. That's a green flag - it would be red if they were trying to avoid me or exclude me or something."

"Or they are planning to murder us both and bury us... wherever we're going," Zara sighed.

"I'm, like, 78 per cent sure they aren't going to kill us."

Zara blinked and looked over at April. "That is

way

lower than I thought it would be."

April snorted and then grinned as she shook her head, taking a moment to focus on making her left turn before picking the conversation up again. "So, other than the potential murder-trip we're on and how the sex with my boyfriend was friggin' amazing, how are you

actually

feeling?"

Zara sighed and looked out the passenger window, avoiding the question.

"Zara," April pushed. "Are we OK?"

"Of course we're OK," Zara said. "I ate your pussy, you ate mine, both of them were full of your boyfriend's fucking

gallon

of spunk - I mean, for real, that was a ridiculous amount of cum. I felt

bloated, sucking

it all up."

"Guess that's why you hogged most of it the next morning," April deadpanned.

That actually got Zara to blush and she looked out the window again. "We're fine, babe," she said.

"How fine?"

"What does that even mean?"

"Like, you just mentioned you'd be down to bail on this trip and go have another threesome," April pointed out. "Which would mean us having sex again. Look, Zara, I had a lot of fun and I totally fucking love you. Having sex with you was awesome and we were dumb for not doing it before. But I need to know if we're OK. Are we OK if we

never

have sex again? Are we OK if Oliver is only comfortable if we have sex with him there? Could you handle that?"

"I'm not some bitch in heat, dragging my cunt across the carpet," Zara said. "Whatever works for you."

"That's not an answer," April said.

"Well, it's the answer I'm giving."

"That's not good enough for me."

"What do you want me to say?" Zara asked.

"The truth."

"The truth? Whose truth? Yours, mine, or his?"

April scoffed. "

The

truth, Zara."

"Fine, the truth is that what we did last night was the best sex I've ever had bar none, I've never felt closer to you than when I woke up in your arms that morning, and I've never felt safer with a guy than with Oliver and that's

fucking weird

because I met him

that night

but you vouching for him and seeing him with you made it really fucking easy. I don't

know

if I'm actually OK because my best friend, who I love and have fantasised about fucking for years, is in a relationship with the only guy who has ever made me come and that I could actually see myself developing feelings for. But he's also

not

my type and is a giant fucking nerd who needs to lose like two hundred pounds and get a fucking makeover before he'd be

actually

attractive enough for either of us and yet somehow none of that matters because he makes me feel

squishy

inside and I don't want to feel fucking

squishy

because that's fucking

uncomfortable

for me. And now I'm meeting his goddamn friends instead of taking advantage of the two more days I'm in town and getting more time alone with you or him." She gasped in a breath at the end, then raised her feet and planted her heels on her seat as she tucked her face between her bent knees.

April pulled over, the only sound between them the ticking of the blinker and the whoosh of a couple cars passing them. Then she undid her seatbelt and leaned over, wrapping her arms around Zara and hugging her tightly.

Zara cried for the first time in forever, and it felt awful and really good and April just held her through it.

- - - - -

Things were... weird.

Hannah couldn't put her finger on it, but

something

was going on. Maybe more than one something.

When she'd met up with Hikaru and Margot in their parking lot that morning, Hannah had got the feeling pretty early on. She'd tested the waters, seeing if they were mad at each other, or at her, and hadn't gotten anything back. Things had eased during the ride out of the city, but as they got closer to the ranch or stables or whatever where Margot kept her horse it had gotten a little more tense again. The whole ride took less than thirty minutes, so that 'things aren't weird' timeframe had been a nice ten minutes.

Then April and Zara had shown up, and things had felt even

more

weird. No one was saying or doing anything rude, or passive-aggressive. No one was giving side-eye. Zara had a bit of a sarcastic attitude and April had given Hannah a little warning that her friend could be a bit abrasive, but the redhead seemed to be on her good behaviour. Ollie had mentioned that she started out pretty bitchy at the start when they first met but she'd mellowed out the more time they spent together.

To be fair, April wasn't being weird. If anything, she was trying maybe a little too hard to

not

be weird. Some of her casual goofiness that was part of her personality was toned down, and Hannah got the sense she was checking in with Zara with little glances.

The people being really weird were Margot and Hikaru. Both girls were friendly but almost... too friendly. Not forced, but it was giving Hannah a vibe. Almost, but not quite, needy? Or clingy? Or...

It was hard to put her finger on.

Zara had been terrified and thrilled when she found out they were all going to get to ride horses. That had been funny. Margot had gotten permission from someone who owned one of the other horses being stabled at the place for them to ride their horse too, and she got all four of the girls to help out getting the equipment - 'tack,' Margot insisted, not 'horse stuff' - and then taught them the basics of everything as she got the horses ready. Then a lady who worked at the stable came over and helped Margot teach them to ride around the fenced-in area.

"Did it feel weird to you?" Zara asked Hannah. "Having something

alive

like that under you, so much bigger and more powerful?"

They were standing outside the fence, watching April and Hikaru take another turn. Margot was smiling as she guided them but Hannah could tell she wanted to get up on her horse and go for a proper ride.

"Sort of," Hannah answered. "Definitely not the feeling I was expecting. 'Big and more powerful' is a good way of putting it, but maybe not enough. Like, I'm not a prude, I've hooked up with a big, muscley guy or two in my life. Being on one of them didn't feel like that - I almost felt powerless up there."

"I've only been with one bigger guy," Zara said, almost murmuring it. "The horse is bigger, obviously, but it kind of had the same feel. Like he could do whatever he wanted, but was willing to let me guide him."

"Sounds like a fun time," Hannah smirked.

Zara snorted and blushed, glancing at Hannah. "Yeah, I can give TMI sometimes."

"No, it's fine," Hannah chuckled. "Can you answer a question for me?"

"Depends on the question."

"Is April going to break Ollie's heart?" Hannah asked. "I mean, I don't think she is planning on it or anything, but he's falling for her. I can tell. And he's not... experienced. With dating, or relationships. I just need to know if she has a habit of changing her mind all of a sudden, or getting the Ick out of nowhere."

Zara sighed, looking back out at her friend on the horse. "April is a rock," she said. "She says it's serious with Oliver, so it's serious. She won't change her mind unless something drastic happens or develops."

Hannah didn't like the fact that her stomach churned and knotted at the confirmation. April wasn't going anywhere. Not that Hannah wanted her to, but that would have made everything so much easier - Ollie would get his heart broken, but then she, Margot and Hikaru could help him put it back together and in the process Hannah could...

"That's good to know," Hannah said and cleared her throat. She didn't want to go there with those thoughts. "They're really good together."

"I wasn't expecting it, but they are," Zara said. "He's a good man. Don't tell anyone I said that or I'll have to start acting like a cunt though. I've got a reputation to maintain."

"I won't, and he is," Hannah said, smirking a little but kicking herself for not realising it soon enough herself. "He really is."

- - - - -

"What do you think?" Hikaru asked Margot quietly.

Margot sighed and put off answering by splashing some more water on her face from the stable sink. The horse riding had gone well, no one fell off or got hurt beyond some of the usual ache in the thighs and neither of the horses got spooked. They both got plenty of attention, which was what was really important. She got out to see her mare Mandala four or five times a week, and the stable folks filled in the gaps, but Margot was used to taking care of her horses on a daily basis. It didn't feel fair for Mandala to not get that personal, specific attention.

She stood back up from leaning over the big utility sink, grabbing one of the nearby dry rag towels and swiping it across her face before looking back at Hikaru.

"She's pretty, thin and standoffish," Margot finally said. "I can't see Ollie even

wanting

to hang out with her, except that April introduced them. She doesn't have anything on you and me, Hikki. Don't feel threatened."

"Are you sure?" Hikaru asked, her lips twisted in a grimace. "You didn't see her... you know, naked. And all confident. I don't think I could

ever

be that confident just walking around naked in front of a stranger."

"I don't know," Margot sighed, shaking her head and looking back down the length of the stable towards the others. They were brushing down Mandala the way Margot had shown them, and Hannah was laughing as she fed the horse another big, gnarly carrot. "I honestly don't. And it's not like we can just ask, 'Hey, now that you're doing threesomes, how would you feel about us joining in or having our own?' If we want to get more of a vibe, we're going to have to put in some work and take some risks."

"What does that mean?" Hikaru asked. "Like... open up first?"

"Maybe," Margot said, chewing on the inside of her lip as she considered things. "Or maybe we just need to do the thing that's the most obvious. We all go get day drunk and ask each other inappropriate questions."

Chapter 51

The brewery hadn't been as classy as a winery would have been, but there weren't really any wineries in the area to do tastings and other girly stuff at. Craft beer was in, though, and the brief brewery tour and 'tasting' after the morning at the stables had been fun. With each girl having already warmed up with a beer, they decided to make their purchases and head back into the city before anyone got drunk, with the plan of meeting back up at Margot's for some proper drinking and bonding.

Considering they all smelled like they'd spent several hours in a barn, that was probably the best idea anyone had all day.

April drove her and Zara back to her parents' place since it was vaguely on the way, and they took turns showering. The fact that she was still living, at least half the time, with her parents had never really bothered April until she'd started dating Oliver - then she'd wished she had a place she could bring him that was

hers.

But there were none of those feelings with Zara - they'd spent years and years bouncing back and forth between their parents' houses.

At least, it had never been a problem until Zara came back across the hall from the washroom wrapped up in a towel, but as soon as the bedroom door was shut she dropped it.

"Hi," the redhead smirked a little, posing in the nude as she eye-fucked April.

"Not fair," April sighed, shaking her head at her friend. She'd already put on a nice set of blue lingerie - with luck, at some point, the drinking would slow down and she could go from Margot's next door to Oliver.

"It's totally fair," Zara said, then gave a ridiculously sexy model look as she teased her fingers down her tight stomach.

"No, it isn't," April laughed, using the shirt she was about to put on to flick at her.

Zara laughed, dancing back a step.

"Seriously, Zara," April continued, still smiling but trying to be serious. "I have to talk to Oliver before we do anything else. Especially without him there."

"That sounds like he's controlling," Zara said.

"You know he isn't, and you're just trying to be a weasel," April said, pulling her shirt over her head. It was an old school Star Wars T-shirt for A New Hope and she started to gather the loose ends to tie up behind her back with an elastic.

"Fine, I'll stop," Zara said. "I'm just saying, wouldn't it be nice if we could just, y'know, help each other take the edge off?"

April rolled her eyes but kept grinning. "Maybe it would. Now get dressed, you horny slut."

"Did you get a vibe today?" Zara asked as she opened up the bottom drawer of April's dresser. They'd kept some clothes at each other's places for years. The fact that it was the bottom drawer had never been an issue before, but April found herself looking at her friend's upturned ass as little too long and had to look away.

"What do you mean?" she asked, digging into her laundry bin and finding the shorts she wanted.

"Well, that Hannah chick was fine," Zara said. "She didn't get weird like I thought she would. But the cousin was giving me weird looks when she thought I couldn't see-"

"Maybe because she caught you naked and knows you had a threesome with me and Ollie?" April interrupted.

"-which might be because of that, yeah," Zara conceded. "But the Horse Girl was giving looks too. And not just at me, it was at you too."

"I didn't notice that at all," April frowned. "Margot - and her name is

Margot,

not 'Horse Girl' - hasn't ever given me a weird vibe."

"Well, I was catching a vibe of something, I'm just not sure what," Zara said. "Just... be careful, OK?"

"What do I need to be careful of? You'll be there watching my back," April said, hopping as she turned while pulling her shorts up over her butt. She found Zara was already dressed in a short summer dress that hung from her slender shoulders with two little strings and no bra straps. "Really?" April raised an eyebrow.

"What? I've got barely any tits, I can burn my bra if I want to."

"Did you put on panties?"

"Are we gonna see Oliver later?" Zara asked.

"Maybe, I'm not sure," April said. "What does that have to do with you wearing panties?"

"So the answer is yes, since you put on that lingerie," Zara said. "And maybe I want to tease him with some upskirts on purpose this time instead of by accident."

"Zara, I love you, but

ask me

first maybe?"

"Fine," Zara sighed. "Can I please flash your boyfriend my cooch so I can turn him on and see his third leg start to bulge in his pants?"

April pursed her lips and narrowed her eyes at Zara. "Is that all you're going to try and do?"

Zara let her jaw drop in mock shock, and then she smirked. "What's a little fingering between friends?"
