When Will woke up the next morning he didn't want to move. He was snuggled against Sonny's chest, almost completely on top of him with Paul's head resting on his back. 'Mmm nice.' Will wasn't sure how Sonny wasn't crushed though. Will enjoyed being surrounded by such warm skin, wrapped in a sense of security but he really needed the bathroom.

Slowly Will rolled Paul onto his back and wiggled out of Sonny's embrace. After using the toilet and finally brushing his teeth Will caught the time on the alarm clock next to the bed. It was still early but Will found himself wide awake. He sat cross legged on the end of the bed observing Sonny and Paul.

Will's eyes roamed their bodies in a way he did not get to do before. Earlier, it was pure lust overwhelming his senses. Now Will had time to appreciate them in an entirely aesthetic manner. 'Still can't believe they both want me.'

Will enjoyed the variances in their skin tones. How Paul's arms were still so tan from playing baseball in the sun after all this time. That Sonny's hair was dark and thick all over his body. Will smiled at Paul's distinct muscles. Sonny, although not as defined was muscular as well. Paul's shoulders were wide and his arms long. Will could still see the scars from his career ending surgery. Sonny wasn't as wide but the indent between his collarbones was enticing Will; he almost couldn't look away. Will wanted to dip his tongue between them and trace the space.

Their chest and abs were different as well. Sonny was smooth and flat but had little definition. Will wanted to drag his fingers in the thick hair covering his skin. Paul was clearly a former athlete in the prime of his life. Will couldn't even tell if he preferred one to another. He was too preoccupied with what he found below.

Flushing slightly Will moved his eyes downward noting the differences in their soft cocks. Sonny's was nestled between thatches of dark hair. Paul did not have as much hair but Will couldn't tell if that was by choice or not. Not that he had much experience in the matter but Will was sure they were both endowed. From what he remembered of the night before they both felt heavy and thick against his hips. In this moment though Will simply regarded their dicks. 'I'll have to get a closer look to compare them when they're hard,' Will thought with a cackle.

Gazing downward again, Will found himself pleased by how thick Sonny's thighs were. He licked his lips and sighed. Paul was just as if not more muscular but Will found himself enthralled with Sonny's body. 'Maybe because I knew Paul would look like this but Sonny has always been covered up.'

Sweeping his eyes over them once again Will was startled to see Paul was awake. Will smiled shyly when he caught his eyes. He wasn't ashamed he was admiring them but it was a bit unnerving to be caught. "Hi," Will whispered.

Paul smiled at Will. He woke up with a slight chill and was disappointed to find Will at the end of the bed. But he couldn't deny he enjoyed watching Will appreciate him. 'He's so cute with his hair all rumpled' Paul thought catching the way Will's hair was sticking out. Paul moved to sit across from Will at the foot of the bed. Mindful not to wake Sonny, Paul cupped Will's face with both his hands and kissed him sweetly, "Morning."

Both sitting cross legged facing each other, Will beamed at Paul. He was suddenly overcome with affection for Paul. 'This is the man who took care of me when I was drunk. The man who punched Neil hoping to protect me. This is the man willing to fight for me.' Will leaned forward and kissed Paul deeply, arms wrapping about his neck.

Paul, a bit surprised by the power behind Will's kiss, lifted his eyebrows and caressed Will's cheek with his thumb. He gently pulled Will closer, until he was sitting on Paul's lap. Their naked skin sliding together, 'Did he brush his teeth,' Paul thought with a smile.

'This is the first time I've ever only kissed one of them,' Will realized. While he enjoyed the gentle pressure and wet warmth he had gotten used to having someone on each side of him. Will almost wasn't sure what to do with only one set of lips on him. 'I must be super messed up if having a single partner feels weird.'

Paul nipped Will's lips teasingly before sliding his hand down to Will's butt, smacking it sharply. 'Finally,' Paul sighed to himself.

Gasping loudly Will snapped his mouth shut when he heard Sonny rustling behind him. He didn't want to wake Sonny up when he looked so peaceful but it was hard to stay quiet.

"Shh, baby boy," Paul snickered, slapping him again in the same spot, hoping to leave it pink and aching.

"Why do you call me that," Will wondered with a moan. 'Apparently spanking is a thing for me.'

"Because you are my baby boy," Paul promised darkly, "You like it when I call you that?"

"I do," Will insisted, arching his back when Paul smacked him again. "I like it a little too much." 'And it sounds familiar.'

"Isn't it a little early for that," Sonny called from behind them, sleep still coloring his voice. He watched the two with a strange look on his face. He wasn't entirely sure how to feel about them kissing without him. He knew they talked about it but it was different seeing it for himself.

"Sorry I woke you up," Will told Sonny sincerely catching his eye. He crawled off of Paul and kissed Sonny firmly, putting his all into the kiss.

Laughing, Sonny kissed Will back breaking away with a loud sound, "I think that made up for it, babe." 'At least I know Will missed me.'

Will bounced on his knees lightly. He felt giddy this morning. After their talk the night before Will was beginning to feel better about their situation. He trusted Sonny and Paul to take care of him. He trusted them to do their best not to hurt him. Just like Will was beginning to trust himself as well, 'I won't hurt them either.'

Paul, looking a bit put out that he was no longer spanking Will, grumbled, "Should we order breakfast?"

"Yes," Will called out suddenly realizing just how hungry he really was. "Holy crap am I hungry." Will hopped off the bed to grab the room service menu he tossed by the door. "Do we all want the same thing or something different?"

"Just make sure you get pancakes," Sonny requested gazing at Will with a fond smile. He turned to Paul who had yet to look at him.

Will picked up the room phone and dialed, "Yes, can you send up the breakfast sampler, please. With a lot of coffee. And can you maybe come really quick, I'm super hungry. OK, thanks," Will finished with a smile. He stretched his arms over his head and turned side to side. Walking to the window and opening the blinds slightly, light filled the room.

Looking at Will, light illuminating his body, "Holy shit," Paul yelled out with a laugh, "Look at you."

"What," Will asked in concern. 'Am I supposed to put my clothes back on?'

Trying not to sound too proud, Sonny replied, "I think we got a little carried away with the biting." 'Fuck, he looks good like that.'

Will walked over to the bathroom and looked at himself in the mirror. He didn't notice it earlier but now it looked obvious. Yesterday he only had two faint marks on his neck, 'Well Neil added a few more', but they weren't that noticeable. Now though, Will's neck, collarbones and chest were covered. Looking down Will noticed his hips had faint fingerprints. Even the area between his hips and groin had obvious bites. 'Jesus Christ.'

Walking back in the room Will announced, arms crossed with a pout, "I look like a leopard."

"I think you look perfect," Paul argued. "Good and owned." 'The way you should look.'

"Oh yeah," Sonny agreed, grabbing Will's hand and pulling him to the bed, "Did you see the good work I did on your shoulders?"

"What," Will asked turning his head and seeing a speck of red out of his peripheral vision. "How did I not even notice this while it was happening?"

"You liked it too much," Sonny reassured him, tracing his fingers from the tops of Will's shoulders to the curve of his ass, outlining the path his mouth left behind.

"And so do we," Paul promised. "It's really hot. Do you mind?" 'Too late now.'

"I guess not," Will said unsurely. It felt so hot in the moment but he wasn't sure what to think now. "Can you maybe not do it on my neck though? I don't want anyone to see."

"But that's kind of the point," Paul contended. "So everyone knows you're taken."

"I already know though," Will said with a frown. 'I don't want everyone to see that.'

"We'll work on it," Sonny placated, patting Will on the back. His thumb was rubbing against a freckle he never noticed on the top of Will's shoulder, right beneath his neck. 'Fuck I want to leave a mark right there.'

"Thanks," Will told him, smiling sincerely. "I like that I can tell you if I don't like something."

"You can always talk to us about anything, baby," Paul assured him, 'Definitely not a baby boy moment.'

"I knew I could before this," Will told him hand gesturing between the three of them, "It's just nice that nothing has really changed. Just, you know I get to join in on the kissing now." Will could still remember the suffocating feeling he would get seeing Sonny and Paul together.

"Like this," Sonny teased yanking Will's head back by the neck and kissing him deeply. Sonny licked his way into Will's mouth, hands rubbing up and down his chest.

Paul smiled and nipped at Will's neck teasingly. When Will made a petulant sound Paul laughed and kissed down to Will's chest, sucking on the area just next to his nipple.

Will pulled away from the both of them, "Mmm, wait, wait." Will sat on his knees and shook his head softly to clear it, "That's not what I want."

Looking confused and mildly concerned, Sonny asked, "What do you want?" 'Did we do something wrong?'

"I want to touch you. Both of you," he admitted, cheeks turning a shade of pink, "I just, um, I haven't gotten to so far. And I want to, I really do. So can I?"

"Fuck, you do not need to ask permission for that," Paul told him moving closer. "We are definitely not telling you no."

Will smiled and reached his hand out to touch Paul's chest with his fingertips, swirling them up and down lightly. Meanwhile, his other hand was pulling Sonny into a kiss. 'OK, I can do this I can make them feel as good as they make me.' Will sucked on Sonny's lip while his fingernail caught on Paul's nipple.

Knock Knock Knock

Paul threw his head back with a sigh, "You had to tell room service to hurry up didn't you?" 'Fuck why now?'

"Oops," Will told them while biting his lip. "I'll get it you two don't move." He pressed his lips to Sonny's followed quickly by Paul's.

As Will leaped off the bed towards the door Sonny laughed, "You might want to put some clothes on first."

"Yeah, that bellboy doesn't need to see that view," Paul said gruffly. 'Although the hickeys might keep him away.'

"Oh, right," Will said laughing at himself. He tried to find where he threw his clothes the night before but he felt overwhelmed. He was jittery and happy. 'And so hungry.'

Knock Knock Knock

"One minute," Will called out loudly to the door. He shimmied on his sweatpants quickly. 'Where's my shirt?'

"William, open the damn door," came the booming voice of EJ Dimera.

Gasping in horror Will froze, staring at Paul and Sonny terrified. "Oh my god," he whispered. "You have to hide." Throwing on whatever shirt he found first, Will tossed them the remaining clothes from the floor and gestured for them to hide in the closet. 'Oh god oh god.'

Complaining in hushed tones Sonny and Paul let Will usher them into the small closet.

"Now," EJ commanded harshly. "What's taking you so long?" 'You better not be doing what I think you're doing.'

Will pulled the door open quickly, nerves flaring, "Sorry, I just woke up." He nervously played with the drawstrings of his pants.

EJ looked Will up and down, the room service cart resting beside him. "Move," he ordered, pushing the cart into the room.

"Why do you have my food," Will asked in confusion. "Why are you even here?"

"I ran into the bellboy in the hallway. He was no longer needed so I dismissed him," EJ said conversationally, looking at the room for evidence of wrong doing. 'Where are they hiding?'

"Oh," Will said softly. "Thanks I guess."

"As for why I'm here, I needed to reassure you of a few things," EJ admitted. He went to sit on the bed than thought better of it, 'Who knows what happened there.' EJ leaned against the chair across from the bed instead.

"OK," Will stretched out slowly and suspiciously. 'There's no way that's true.'

"I wanted to apologize for bombarding you with everyone at the mansion yesterday," EJ started. "I wanted to talk with you alone but the others insisted that they stay."

Will nodded feeling apprehensive.

"I want to make it clear that I only wanted to talk to you at all because I care about you," EJ continued on, hands gesturing slightly. "You just have a very dumb habit of making stupid decisions when you don't have time to think."

"Uh," Will said feeling a bit offended.

"Don't try to argue with me. Everyone knows it's true. Whenever you're impulsive it ends poorly. I just want you to know that I would do anything to help you in this," EJ elaborated sincerely.

"Anything," Will asked with his head tilted to the side. "Is that why you sided with Mom and Adrienne?" Will couldn't forget how much it stung to see EJ with those two arguing against Will.

"I did not say I sided with them," EJ added. "I merely united with them to discourage you. I, however, am under no illusions that you are to blame for this situation. You are merely a victim."

"I'm not a victim," Will argued with a frown. "Just because Paul and Sonny want to be with me doesn't make me helpless."

"I merely meant that you are clearly not the instigator. You told me you wanted to step away from the situation than a day later you were suddenly with them," EJ told Will softly. "I think you're confused and need advice from someone who cares."

"I think I understand everything now. I just want to be happy," Will pleaded with EJ. "And I don't want you or Mom trying to interfere."

"I told you I would do anything to help you Will even if that means protecting you from yourself," EJ told him sternly. "This entire situation will only end poorly."

"But why," Will inquired, "Why does it have to? What if we were happy and it all worked out?"

"Reality tells me it won't," EJ said firmly. "You three might think it works but eventually it will become too much for you. The outside pressure will be too much."

"You aren't listening to me," Will argued in frustration. "I want to try this out, EJ. I do."

"You don't know what you want," EJ retorted. "I know you. You care about what people think of you. You want to make everyone happy. When everyone wants something different you won't know what to do."

"That's when I'll need help! That's when I'll need advice," Will begged, "I don't need you to tell me how stupid and spineless I am. Maybe I would be stronger if I had someone who supported me unconditionally."

"I can't sit by and watch you make mistake after mistake," EJ replied angrily, 'When will you see what's right in your face.' "I have done my best to guide you but you insist on taking all of my teachings and throwing them out the window!"

"I don't know how I'm doing that," Will yelled back, annoyed. "You tell me to make decisions I think are right. You want me to be stronger and believe in myself. But every time I try to do the right thing you're there telling me how idiotic I am. You aren't listening to me, EJ!"

Throwing his head back with a shout, EJ started pacing, "I'm trying!"

"I just want you to support me. I just want you to care without any prerequisites," Will admitted softly, looking down at his feet, he hated it when EJ was angry. "I don't want you treating me like a child."

EJ exhaled slowly, walked towards William and wrapped him in his arms, "I do support you."

Will shook his head sadly, "I don't think you do. I think you only wanted to help me because Mom asked you to." Will's relationship with EJ had always been tumultuous but deep down Will wanted him to protect him. He wanted EJ to treat him the way he saw EJ treat Johnny. But Will was afraid EJ only saw Will as a means to get to Sami.

"That's not true," EJ asserted. "Samantha only pointed out that you were in some trouble. She wanted me to keep an eye on Paul. It was I who decided to watch over you as well."

Will shrugged resentfully, unbelieving. 'I wish that was true.'

"Ugh," EJ groaned out in frustration. "You're entirely too stubborn. If you weren't so sullen when I first became involved with Samantha our relationship would be different. If you weren't so angry I would have done better. Done more. You're older now William but I will always think of you as my wayward son."

Will burrowed his face into EJ's side and held on tightly. He didn't realize how much he needed to hear that. All his life he wanted a stable family. He wanted his mom to be happy and taken care of. He hated EJ for so long that he was almost blinded to the good things he had done. How much EJ had tried to take care of him. But it wasn't until EJ told him outright did he understand. 'Maybe I am as dumb as everyone treats me.'

"Thank you," Will told EJ, looking up into his eyes and grinned. EJ smiled back and tapped Will lightly against the chin with his fist. Will laughed and rolled his eyes, 'He's never going to let that go.'

"I thought for a while there I was going to have to take you over my knee to get my point across," EJ joked with William affectionately. A brief noise was heard from inside the closet, but EJ's laugh covered it up so he never heard.

Will's face flushed. He could still feel a slight sting on his butt from where Paul smacked him earlier. "Um, I don't think that would have worked," Will muttered.

EJ held William against him securely. He was glad that William now realized how much he cared but it still didn't solve the matter at hand. 'Kiriakis and Narita are only going to hurt him.' EJ was looking forward to whatever information his private detective could find out. As interesting as it was that Paul was John Black's son EJ knew that would not help him scare Paul away. While it would be awkward for William that Paul was technically his step uncle it wouldn't keep them apart. 'No, I'll be keeping that information for myself, whenever I need to keep John Black in line.' What EJ needed was concrete proof that would guarantee to separate William from Narita, 'Forever.' Hopefully Chad would able to find something interesting on Sonny Kiriakis as well. 'Not to mention I have to ruin Neil as well,' EJ mused. 'I'm going to be very busy.'

"So," Will said quietly, "Does that mean you'll let me make my own decisions?"

"Of course not," EJ said plainly. "But I will at least step aside and let you make your own mistakes." 'And discover every way I can to thwart your boyfriends at every turn.'

"Because that's not suspicious," Will muttered pulling away from EJ. He glanced at the closet door in what he hoped was a nonchalant manner. 'I wonder how much they heard.'

"So," EJ told Will, rubbing his hands up and down William's arms, "Are they in the closet or under the bed?"

Staring up at EJ, eyes wide and frantic, "Um, what?" He batted his lashes trying to appear as innocent as possible.

"Cute, but not going to work," EJ expressed firmly. "Did you give yourself those hickeys?" He gestured to Will's spot covered neck with a look of distaste. 'Did they have to maul him?'

Will clasped his hands to his throat with a gasp, 'I can't believe I forgot.'

"And you clearly have company based on the amount of food underneath this cover," EJ rattled the cart of food with his foot. "Now either I have to fire the bellboy for getting too close to his subject or you snuck your boyfriends in last night."

"Wait, you hired the bellboy to spy on me," Will blurted out, face scrunched in confusion. "Don't you trust me?"

"Clearly it was a wise decision, how else would I know you had two extra guests in your room. Just feel privileged I gave you a night with them," EJ stated clearly, shoulders shrugging and arms crossed. "How did you invite them when Chad still has your phone?"

"Chad told them," Will said, not exactly wanting Chad to be at EJ's mercy but 'better him than me.' EJ was already upset with Will he didn't need to think Will deliberately disobeyed EJ to get Sonny and Paul over. "I didn't know they would be over." 'OK, so maybe I didn't need to blame Sonny and Paul either. I'll make it up to them later.'

"That explains that," EJ muttered thinking about Chad's suspicious behavior the night before. "Now, get out here, now," EJ barked loudly at the closet.

The closet door slowly opened and Sonny and Paul stumbled out. Thankfully they had time to put their clothes on while they hid. The two looked nervous but determined.

EJ, hand gripping Will's elbow tightly, glared at the two, "Feel good to get out of the closet?"

"Really," Will groaned in annoyance, "That was lame even for you." He tried to catch Sonny or Paul's eye, wanting to convey how sorry he was they were going to have to deal with this.

Paul, eyes locked on EJ's hand touching Will, "It feels good to see Will stand up to you."

"Oh please, you should have seen him as a teenager," EJ commented airily. "Now, let's cut the small talk."

Sonny, arms crossed, stood up straight, looking EJ in the eyes, "Fine."

"Do we have to," Will asked out loud despite the fact no one was listening to him.

Author's note:

This one was kind of short again. They can't all be over 5k though. I've had to wrap my wrists with gauze when I type my wrists are getting so bruised.

I think Will was rather sweet in this chapter. Plus, EJ needed to set some things straight for him. Next chapter will be interesting when he finally gets to confront Paul and Sonny together.

I'll try my best but I might not get to update again until Sunday. The next two days are going to be crazy busy for me. Hopefully I can update tomorrow but don't be surprised if it doesn't happen. I'll be back on Sunday for sure.

And thank you to the reviewer who let me know I accidentally called Paul Neil in the last chapter. That would make this an entirely different story.

Please review and let me know your opinion.

P.S. My mom was explaining the current DOOL storyline to her friend while I was over, "Well Adrienne decided to have an affair with Lucas because Justin was having one in Dubai and Will slept with Paul who was dating Sonny who has turned into a douche." It made me laugh.
