Bella
My hands were shaking by the time I placed the test back on top of the counter.
Keeping my hands splayed across the porcelain countertop, I stared at the thin strip for what felt like a long time. Long enough that I jumped when I heard a knock at the door.
"Bella? You okay in there?"
Edward.
I looked down to the test once more, seeing no visible change. Releasing a heavy sigh, I push off the counter and slowly open the door to find one of my best friend's leaning against the door frame. Forearm resting against it, making him practically hover over me.
Edward leaned back, the worry in his eyes fading as his darkened gaze softened. Giving me space to walk out of the bathroom, I was glad for the hand that rubbed my back as I walked towards the bed where Jasper was sitting on the edge. There was a deep furrow between his brows as he directed his cool gaze away from his interlaced hands to meet my eyes.
Duke was sitting on the soft rug beside him, perking up when he noticed me. I smiled at him, kneeling to pet his head which he happily nuzzled against my palm until he was practically stuck to me, wagging his tail and laying his head over my lap, "Hey boy."
"He's been sleeping ever since you guys got here. It was an effort to get him off the couch," Edward chuckled as he crouched low to give Duke some love too. "Unless we waved some food around, that got him moving."
With everything that's been happening with Paul and the pregnancy scare—which might not be a scare at all and potentially become a reality—I completely neglected Duke in the process. If it weren't for Jasper and Edward being so attentive to him and his needs, I don't know what would have happened.
For some reason, tears sprung to my eyes and I had to shut them.
"I'm so sorry," I whispered to Duke, running my fingers through his soft fur.
A hand gently cupped my cheek and I was forced to face Jasper as he too had somehow slid off the bed and knelt beside me.
"How long do you have to wait?" Jasper finally asked. That's what I loved about him. Frank and to the point, while also being incredibly gentle. His thumb brushed away a tear that rolled down my cheek.
"I think it should be done in another minute or so...I'm kind of scared to look though."
Edward's gaze was tender as he said, "Whatever it is, you know we'll be there with you."
"I know," I breathed out, leaning my forehead against his shoulder and allowing him to comfort me once again as he wrapped his arms around me. We stayed there like that for another minute until I finally pulled away and rose. "I'll go check to see if it's done.
"We'll be here," Jasper said before I glanced over my shoulder and nodded, attempting a smile in his direction. It seemed to melt the icy exterior he'd been sporting in those blue eyes.
Taking a deep breath I walked into the bathroom and closed the door behind me. My heart was pounding so hard in my chest I thought it would burst through.
I couldn't bring myself to look yet so I paced around, wearing a hole in the tiles until I felt lightheaded from the adrenaline and dizzying emotions.
When I finally told myself to stop being a coward, I stopped pacing. I eyed the pregnancy test as I slowly walked towards the counter. Quickly noticing that there was a result on the strip. Clear as day.
The answer to all my worries.
My hands trembled as I picked the stick up and finally stared down the results.
Jasper
As soon as Bella was out of sight, I released a breath.
Edward seemed to do the same though his worry wasn't gone as he sat beside Duke and faced me. He didn't say anything but he didn't need to. He'd said all we needed to say to her.
We would be there for her no matter what happened next.
Pregnant. Bella could be pregnant with that bastard's baby and...
I couldn't bring myself to think about it if only to keep myself from launching off the bed and storming across the street to kill him myself.
I always knew he didn't deserve her but, a small part of me hoped that my suspicions and jealousy were misplaced. That maybe he was a good man like Bella said.
Yeah, I wasn't wrong.
I rarely was when it came to following my intuition—my gut feeling—when it came to people.
But for Bella's sake I had hoped I was wrong.
Watching the way Bella took in Paul and that woman as they fucked on the couch, I couldn't say I was surprised, but my heart ached to see her completely shut down. Heartbroken and betrayed.
I'm not a man who holds many grudges. Life's too short for that shit. But when he damaged the trust she'd put in him and then tried to make her stay? I lost all sense of control.
The moment the bastard put his hands on her, yanking her back to get her to stay, I moved without thought.
I was well aware that he was drunk and it was probably the barely restrained patience in me that took pity on the fool. Merely because of that. Otherwise I would have punched his face in until he begged me to stop.
I'd seen the bruises he'd left after he and Bella had sex. I knew what men like Paul were capable of doing if they got angry enough. Even picturing the way he must have gripped her arms or neck during sex sent nausea roiling in my stomach.
I wasn't going to let him get his grimy hands on her again.
The sound of the door opening had us both standing. We looked to the bathroom to find Bella standing in the doorway, the pregnancy test nowhere to be seen and her head down.
My heart dropped.
"Bella?" Edward stepped forward before I could, but stopped when she looked up with tears in her eyes.
"It's negative," she whimpered, her voice was so low I almost didn't hear her. But the words registered. Then she said it, "I'm not pregnant."
Edward and I both moved at the same time, hurrying to her side and pulling her into a tight embrace.
Bella cried silently, breathing a heavy sigh of relief that told me just how much she hadn't wanted to be pregnant with Paul's baby. I cupped the back of her neck as she wrapped her arms around both of us. Kissing her forehead I said, "It's okay now, Bella. You're okay. This is good."
Bella nodded against my chest as Edward gently wiped away her tears, his other hand on my back.
Unable to resist her big doe eyes that were breaking my heart, I leaned down and kissed her wet cheek, then the other. It was slow. Tender. My lips pressed against her flushed skin, tasting her tears and the sweet scent that was all Bella.
Her hand gripped the back of my shirt somewhat, probably taken aback by my sudden show of affection, a gasp slipping past her lips.
When I pulled away, she stared up at me with what I could only call wonder.
Edward cupped the side of her face then and she looked to him with the same expression. When he granted her that crooked smile of his, they leaned forward and met halfway. He kissed her forehead and then her nose, swiping his thumb to get rid of anymore tears.
"No more tears from you, love. You're breaking our hearts," Edward said.
My thumb rubbed small circles along her back, conveying that I agreed with my boyfriend.
Now Bella was blushing for a different reason.
One that I couldn't allow myself to think about yet. Not when I wanted to do more than kiss her cheek. So much more than I was allowed to do.
For now, we needed to celebrate.
"Is it too early to open up a bottle of wine?" I asked with a grin, hoping to change the mood in the room. Bella and Edward blinked, finally looking away from one another's hypnotizing eyes before they looked to me. I released them from our tight embrace before turning, calling over my shoulder, "I vote for no."
"You won't hear any complaints from me," Bella released a watery laugh behind me before they followed me downstairs along with a trudging Duke.
That night we toasted to a false alarm and sat around the fireplace until the rain began to fall again outside, washing away all her worries.
And ours.
If only for a night, before tomorrow she dealt with a whole other ordeal.
Faint caresses on my abdomen left hundreds of goosebumps along my skin. Delicate fingers ran up and down my bare chest before the softest lips pressed against mine, coaxing me awake.
I sighed as those same lips gently pressed and parted, taking my bottom lip captive before I found myself kissing back. Searching and submitting to the warm tongue that slipped inside my mouth, making me moan at the wonderful sensation.
The taste of mint and strawberries awakened the rest of my senses but before I could relish in the delicious taste, those plump lips were gone.
The loss I felt had been enough to make me finally force my eyes to open.
The room was dark as I stared up at the ceiling of our bedroom. For a moment I was confused before those same hands ran over my chest and down to my abdomen again.
Looking down, I nearly groaned at the sight before me.
At the woman smiling up at me as she stopped right before the band of my sweatpants.
"Bella...?" I whispered her name, "what are you-"
"I need you, Jasper. I've been needing you for so long." She said, kissing my stomach and making me shudder at the sensation this woman instilled in me.
"Need you..." I said, reaching down to cup her face with all the care I could muster before trailing off when she slowly pulled the ties of my sweatpants loose. Holy fuck, this has to be a dream.
Her hand slipped beneath and cupped my already hardened cock, making me take a sharp intake of breath.
"Oh fuck. Bella, you don't have to do that."
She ignored me, pulling me free from the confines of my briefs until my member was hard as stone and ready in her hands.
"Don't you want me?" She asked in a voice that was all too innocent. It was my fucking undoing.
"Don't you want her to touch you, Jazz?" Edward asked as he suddenly came into view behind her, his chest bare as he leaned over her and placed a kiss on the column of my throat. "Don't you want both of us?"
"Always, god I always have," I gasped as Bella started stroking me up and down while Edward caressed my face with his hand, with his mouth.
I cursed as her hot wet tongue licked and swirled around the tip of my cock, swiping away the pre-cum that gathered there. I had no self control. No words as they both worked towards pleasuring me, engulfing me in their care and lust.
Bella's mouth felt wonderful, warm and wet as she took me in fully. Up and down, up and down.
When Edward's hand smoothed over my chest, pinching one of my nipples in a teasing manner, my legs started to tremble as a sudden need for release came on, "Ah, y-yes—"
I woke up with a start, groaning loudly as my cock strained against my briefs. I jolted awake as I stared up into Edward's sultry green eyes, finding him on top of me. His bottom lip was captured between his teeth as he watched me. His hand was stroking me over my briefs, rubbing me up and down.
I moaned, "Edward..."
"Come for me, love. I want to see you," he said as he slipped his hand inside and pulled my cock out with his large hand. "I need to fucking see you come apart."
I tried to fight off the amazing sensations that tightened in my stomach. A hot coil ready to viciously snap.
I placed a hand over my mouth as another moan escaped me, "Bella's upstairs—" I choked on the words as he suddenly stopped pumping me and shoved my hand away. He kissed me with a ferocity that took my breath away. His tongue thrusting past my lips, pressing against mine in a possessive dance. God, I loved it when he was commanding in bed.
Normally it was the other way around, but God did it turn me on when he took charge.
Soon I was lost to him, falling into the blissful abyss he was dragging me into.
"Come," he hissed as he bit my bottom lip hard enough to draw blood. I groaned, my hands coming up to cup the nape of his neck as I thrust against his hand. His other hand closed around my neck as he pumped me even faster.
My voice was hoarse as I hissed, "Fuck."
This time I felt my orgasm approaching like a freight train heading in only one direction.
My eyes rolled to the back of my head as the pressure against my neck increased.
"God, yeah," I sank my teeth against his shoulder, making him practically growl. My hips rocked against his unrelenting hand, over and over. His hard cock rocking against my thigh. "Edward, I'm gonna cum. Now."
"Do it," He rested his forehead against mine, whispering sweet words of encouragement as he slowed and took a different pace that left me arching my back, desperately chasing that peak.
"Together," I panted. "Cum together..."
"You're so fucking hot when you talk dirty," he said as he pulled away and quickly pushed his boxers down his thighs, "it makes me want to fuck you all night long."
I panted as I watched him pull himself out while he continued stroking me. My eyes were heavy with lust as he worked both of us over until he cursed. I knew he couldn't take it anymore.
Looks like this tantalizing tease of mine needs me now.
I grinned, sitting up in one smooth motion and pushing him down on the mattress. We were a panting mess as we fought for dominance, my hands gripping his wrists above his head as he tried to push me back.
I chuckled as he nipped my shoulder, clearly relishing in the playful side of our entanglement just as much as I did.
"You said you wanted to fuck me all night. But baby, I think you and I both know who's going to be in charge."
I kissed his neck, smoothing the tortured flesh I'd bitten into with my tongue and watched as he reached for the drawer in the nightstand, pulling out the bottle of lube. I cursed as he poured it over my throbbing cock.
Before he could reach for me, I swatted him away. Kissing down his muscular chest and abs, stopping to playfully bite one of his nipples. The other tortured by my fingers as I pinched and pulled until the nub was pink and hard.
Edward slammed his hand back down on the mattress, "Don't tease me..."
"You want this bad don't you?"
Edward groaned as my finger teased his tight opening, "Stop messing with me."
I took his earlobe into my mouth and bit the flesh before growling, "You love it."
"Jazz," Edward gasped as I gathered the lube slathered along my cock and pushed one finger inside him, slow and probing.
"Lift your hips." I ordered.
He did as I asked, parting his legs while I leaned back. I struggled to catch my breath as I watched him stare up at me through intoxicatedly lustful eyes. I positioned myself at his tight hole before slowly sliding in.
"Ah," He whimpered as I slid all the way to the hilt. He felt incredible every damn time.
Our hands interlaced as I thrust into my lover, slow and torturous before finally Edward snapped with a hoarse moan, begging and commanding as his green eyes sparked to life, "Fuck me."
And I did. Thrusting hard against him until the mattress started creaking rhythmically, the headboard moving but not slamming against the wall. Thank fuck.
"You're going to have to be quiet, baby. I can't have Bella knocking on the door while I'm buried inside you. As much as I know you'd get off on it."
He responded with a pained moan that was barely above a whisper.
Eventually I made a steady yet hard rhythm, pumping into him at a slower pace than usual. But the excitement of it, the climb towards the climax, it made my heart pound. I had trouble keeping my composure as I watched Edward lose himself to the pleasure. When my hand gripped his member, he had to stifle a cry of pleasure by biting his bottom lip.
"I love you so much, Edward. God, I'm gonna..."
"Jasper...love—"
We came together, it was so sudden and the release so powerful that we had no choice but to cover each other's mouths with each others hands if only to not wake Bella up. We stared into each others eyes, breathing heavily through our noses as we came down from our orgasm.
God, Bella...
I'd dreamt of her. Of all three of us, together in bed.
"I'm going to hell, aren't I?" I panted against Edward's shoulder while he ran his hands up and down my back.
I felt his smile against my neck as he kissed me, "At least I'll be there with you."
Something told me he'd been filled with thoughts of Bella too.
Bella
The sound of Edward and Jasper's moans left my heart pounding in my throat. Blood rushed to my face as I heard their muffled groans of pleasure which I was sure they didn't realize were louder than expected.
I'd come into the kitchen after waking up with a start, feeling anxious and lost until I realized where I was. Needing a glass of water after failing to go to sleep, I snuck into the kitchen and helped myself to a cup.
I was about to leave and wandered into the hallway when I heard them.
I'd stopped dead in my tracks. My hands closing around the glass of water when I heard a moan. It was deep and husky as it said, "God, yeah."
Jasper.
My heart stuttered and jumped all over the place. I swallowed thickly as I heard Edward's voice next but it wasn't nearly as loud.
They were having sex.
There was no doubt about it.
Flushing ten shades of pink, I turned and hurried up to the guest bedroom. I closed the door as gently as I could, wholly aware that I could still hear them though it was much more muted.
I suddenly found it really hard to breathe. The room was too hot. Chugging down the glass of water, I set it down on the nightstand before pulling my sleeping robe off.
I didn't think they'd be awake considering it was so late and especially after we had an entire bottle of wine tonight, so I hadn't put anything underneath my oversized t-shirt I often slept in.
Feeling embarrassed beyond belief, I slapped my hands over my face, "God, what did I do?"
I'd overheard two of my best friends having sex. I should be traumatized or mortified. I should be...
And yet, I wasn't.
Lowering my hands from my face, I glanced down to the bedsheets. To the edge of the bed where Jasper had been sitting earlier today. Where Edward had knelt beside me. Where they'd held me and kissed my cheeks tenderly, their lips lingering. Leaving me feeling parched, lips tingling to do the same.
What is happening to me?
My heart was in my throat as I slowly eased back into bed and stared up at the ceiling.
I was painfully aware that I was feeling a wetness gathering between my legs. An unexpected reaction but not one I was surprised to have. Not after I'd dreamt about Jasper and Edward a few nights ago. I should be utterly mortified by it.
I should be...
Imagining them worship my body with their mouths and hands. Their lips on me. I wanted...them. Both of them.
My hand slowly slid beneath the covers and I bit my lip upon feeling the slick arousal inside my panties.
"Fuck," I whispered as my fingers found my clit and slowly worked myself over. Replaying the memory of my dream all over again, I found myself imagining Edward's hand between my legs instead of mine. Coaxing me open. Teasing me. Dizzying me with his husky words against my ear.
And Jasper...he'd be watching me with bright eyes that darkened with lust and awe. Staring up at me as I grind against his cock. His hands cupping my breasts while I bent down to kiss his soft lips.
I whimpered as I worked myself faster, drawing quick circles around my clit as my orgasm built and built.
I imagine both of their lips on mine. Searing into my skin with their hot breaths and gentle nipping of teeth.
There was no self control anymore. No shame as I played with myself. I should probably feel some remorse for doing this, right? I mean, who pictures her two best friends in such an intimate manner?
Me apparently, though this is a first. Never have I ever thought about two men at once. It was so different. So...Jasper and Edward.
My breath hitched as I sped up, wanting to come and reach my momentary bliss. For a moment, I didn't think I could. Feeling my orgasm slip from the very tips of my fingers as it so often did with Paul.
And then–
"Oh, god."
I heard two unmistakable moans that seemed to ignite that fire all over again. This time it was Jasper's mouth that was replacing Edward's hand, savagely working me with his tongue until the dam finally broke.
I silently gasped against my pillow as my entire body trembled with release, my back arching as my fingers massaged my clit until my legs felt weak.
My hand fell away as I panted, staring up at the ceiling with a hot flushed face. Then I pulled my pillow over my face and groaned, "I'm so going to hell for that."
