Thanks so much @arnoldjmiles! I discovered this thread a few days ago and having been reading some each day, until finally finishing last night. What a great storyteller you are! This is far and away the best story I've read on here. Best wishes from Sydney, Australia x

I loved it so much! The soft, the tender, the caring, and even the overthinking, I almost felt like experiencing with them.
Already bought the first ebook and forward to the other versions in june! Cheers from Brazil!
 

@arnoldjmiles, I love the story/novella that you posted here, I recently purchased the audiobook on Audible and am actually listening to it right now. It brings it all to life in a different way. I am actually impressed (and very pleased since I usually prefer audiobooks), that you so quickly did so, as an independent author. I hear that isn't always easy or cost-effective to do. And I must say, you got a fantastic narrator! Nathan Wolfe is amazing, and I am surprised that he only has one other audiobook credit (on Audible, at least) to his name. Do you have any info on him and/or his work? Any plans for other things you've written to be recorded?

 
Thank you @garometrix!

(To those of you wondering why it's already on Audible, annoyingly they don't let individual authors arrange pre-orders, so it's already out there. I'll do a full post here on the 24th June, which is when the paperback is out).

Nathan Wolfe is fantastic, isn't he? I love what he's done. The smut is smuttier, the plot is richer, the characters and their interactions are more meaningful. I don't know of more that he's done, sorry.

No plans for anything more on audiobook as of yet. As you rightly point out, it's not cost-effective for an independent author and I'm almost guaranteed to make a loss on my investment in the narrator unless I can keep on building my promotion of it elsewhere.

But ultimately, I selfishly really wanted to do it this time with a voice actor and even if it didn't sell a single one I'm so glad I did.

If you'd consider leaving a review on Audible, I'd really appreciate it. It's ratings and reviews that get noticed there.

Yeah, I figured about the expense to you, but I am thrilled you did it, and with such a great narrator. The intimate scenes between Tom and Matt are fucking hot, with a range of feels whether they are just lying in bed together, hanging out on the couch, or totally getting it on. I already posted a review on Audible. I am not sure if it automatically shows on the Amazon page or not (though I assume it does, since Amazon owns it?), so I will need to check that out to make sure it is on there too. Gotta get the good word out there. Oh, and if you know any social media for Nathan Wolfe, please share. I'd love to follow him to make sure I can follow if/when he does any more stuff.
 
The book is out today! Available in paperback, audiobook and ebook formats.

I've tried to summarise all the places you can access it here. One or two people asked about accessing the audiobook on Spotify - I'm afraid they've censored it for being too sexually explicit. It seems you can say anything you want in rap and music, but in audiobook format, no... so it's on Audible, Apple or Libro.

If you have an Amazon account, I'd really appreciate it if you could write a positive review of the book (you don't need to buy it to leave a review). It helps a lot with pushing it on their lists.
 
Later that day I got a text from Matt.

"Did you enjoy the wake up call? ;)"

"I did!"

"Left me horny all day TBF. It's so nice spooning with you. Especially in this weather"

"If you're gonna insist on waking me up like that each time, you can come around and spoon anytime".

"Hahahaha"

"How about a pint tonight?"

"Yeah ok. That pub again?"

"Sure"

During the day, I rang my parents. As expected, they were thrilled that I'd be visiting for a few days and more than happy to host Matt too.

My mum gently enquired as to whether the spare bed should be made up too or just my old double bed. I said that the spare bed would be good. Matt was clearly becoming more comfortable with me but that didn't necessarily mean he was comfortable being that open with everybody (least of all my mother).

I got to the pub before Matt and found that Claire was working again.

"Oh hey. Nice to see you".

"Hey Tom! Welcome back. What can I get you?"

I chose one of the local beers.

"Are you meeting your friend again?" she asked.

"I am indeed".

She smiled at this news, and gave me my pint.

"Thanks! Chat to you in a bit".

Matt arrived a couple of minutes later. I saw him have a very similar interaction with Claire to the one I'd just had.

"Hey!" he gave me a hug. "I see she's here again".

"Hey!" I smiled. "Yeah".

"I've been thinking about this you know".

"What, Claire?"

"Well, sort of but only to think about something else. I don't mind her or anyone else knowing that we're close like this. At least, I don't mind because we're both men. I don't necessarily want to broadcast every bit of personal info".

"Oh? Sorry. I've already told her you wanked me off this morning and my cum hit the headboard".

Matt laughed.

"She seems the sort that would enjoy knowing that mate, to be fair. But I mean that if people ask about us, I know we're not a couple or anything. But if people make it awkward by asking questions about me, I don't mind if people put 2+2 together. If somebody cottons on that I've done a gay thing with a gay guy, it's fine with me".

"Okay. Well, thank you. I don't think anyone is making it awkward, but it is great how comfortable you feel about this."

Matt smiled. "Anyway, cheers!"

We clinked. It was quite quiet in the pub. Standard Monday evening experience, I expect, after a heavy weekend. Claire was on her phone at the bar. There was another bar colleague too. Almost as many staff as there were customers.

"If anybody was likely to be interested in what we get up to, it might be her", I said.

"Yeah. She's part of the reason I said it. She was asking about us and how she had seen you in the gay bar at the weekend. I think she likes us".

"How do you feel about that?"

"I don't really know to be honest. I mean, I don't know what she likes. She might just be a nice, friendly girl. She might see us as some nice guys or as some sort of challenge!"

"Yeah, I wondered that."

"Would you do anything with her?" Matt asked.

"Me?! I dunno. It's not a question I usually have to think about. Girls tend not be intrigued by me. Maybe. She is hot. If she was chill and open-minded, I could see it happening. I'd quite enjoy watching you fuck her..."

"Seriously?"

"If I wanked to it, my load would hit the headboard, put it that way".

Matt laughed. Claire came to our table.

"Hey guys. Can I get you another beer?"

"Yes please! Same again, I think" Matt replied.

She smiled, collected our empty glasses and walked away.

"How do you feel chatting like this?" I asked. "You've gone from having one woman in your life, to fucking me, to wanking me off in the morning after a cuddle, to hearing me suggest you fuck another woman while I watch."

Matt smiled. "I mean, when you put it like that... I dunno. Part of me wonders if at some point it'll all just fall apart and I'll find it too much. But to be honest for now I'm feeling alright about it. That doesn't mean I know what I want to do. I don't wanna just fuck anyone that's around for the sake of it..."

At that precise moment, Claire returned with the two pints.

"Oh yeah?" She asked.

I started laughing.

"Hi! Sorry. We were just..."

"Discussing who you're fucking?" Claire asked with a grin.

"Sort of... sorry".

"Don't be!" She put the beers on the table. "I'll just be at the bar if you guys need me..."

She smiled at both of us individually.

We both laughed.

"I think that means you *have* to fuck her now" I said.

Matt jokingly put his head in his hands. I could see Claire was still smiling at the bar.

"Have you ever had a threesome?" Matt asked.

"Not where a woman has been involved, obviously. I've met a couple of guys before. I'm friends with both of them and hooked up with them individually, and we've done it occasionally as a three. But to be honest that's it. And even then I'd preferred it 1:1. I don't need to ask if you've had a threesome?"

"Two people in my whole life. Emma and you."

"Does it interest you?"

"It gets me excited mate! But nervous too".

"Sure. I understand".

"Another pint?"

"Sure!"

Matt went to the bar. Claire served him. He was there a few minutes. I went to the bathroom for a piss.

I came back and Matt was sat with a couple of pints fi us.

"Well?" I smiled and asked.

"She gave me her number. She asked me what my deal was."

"What did you say?"

"I said I had no idea! But that she seemed cool and maybe we might hang out sometime. The three of us".

"Did she seem happy with that? If she wants to shag you just Matt, I'd not be offended!"

"She was as interested in you, I think. I think she's just a bit curious. Anyway, I said I'd send her a group chat".

A few minutes later, Claire came to our table.

"My colleague has said she can finish up here. Do you mind if I join you guys for a drink?"

"Sure". We both smiled and made room.

"I'll be honest, I didn't think working in this old man pub would pique my sexual fantasies".

I laughed. "Sexual fantasies? Maybe we just wanted to invite you to play chess with us".

Matt smiled. "You guys are better at this than I am".

"What's the deal between you two?" Claire asked.

"Shall I go?" Matt asked. I nodded and he continued. "We met a few weeks ago and we've hit it off as really good mates".

"Just mates?"

"Mates who have done a few things together too. Tom is a bit more experienced than I am".

"I'm a bit more of a slut than he is". I translated.

Claire smiled. "So you're bi?"

"No idea. I guess" Matt replied.

"And you?" Claire asked.

"Gay. But open minded. If Matt can explore something with me like he has recently, I'm open to new things too".

"Okay. Well this is interesting! Drinks?"

Claire got us 3 whiskies.

"I knew there was something about you guys when I met you. Something different. I liked it."

"Are you single?" I asked.

"Yeah" Claire replied. "Bar work isn't great for a social life. Tinder and apps help me meet people but I'm happy being single for now".

"And where do you sit sexually"? Matt asked.

"Where do I sit? I mean usually..."

"No!" Matt interrupted before the filthy answer came. "I mean... sorry... are you more like me or more like him?"

She laughed. "I'm more like him".

"Okay. That probably helps". Matt replied. We all laughed and had a sip of whisky.

This was all nice. Although a bit weird. I genuinely had no idea if I would enjoy this. Would I enjoy having sex with a woman? Would I enjoy watching Matt do things with her? Would I enjoy Matt's company if she was there? Was Matt comfortable?

I was definitely intrigued. I'd be a bit more relaxed if it was just me as there'd be less at stake. But this was fun.

"How would you both feel about coming back to mine?" I asked.

"I kinda thought I might be anyway". Matt smiled.

"Yeah! Okay. I'm up for it". Claire smiled too.

It was half an hour or so to walk to mine so we got a taxi. We made our way upstairs past Mrs Barnstable's flat and up to the top floor. I led, Claire in the middle and Matt last of all. Claire affectionately touched my hand as we walked upstairs. Thankfully, I'd prepped the heating to be on so it wasn't ice cold in my flat.

"I might need another whisky" Matt said. "May I?"

"Go ahead" I said, stroking his shoulder. "I guess we maybe should cover some ground rules. If anyone is uncomfortable at any point, just say. Or don't say and just feel free to stop and leave. Claire, if we do anything and you want us to stop, go ahead. I don't think there's anything I definitely draw the line at, but if there is I'll say".

Claire smiled and took a whisky being offered from Matt. "Thanks. Same here. I prefer condoms but otherwise good".

Matt was the most nervous of all of us. "Yeah... erm... I might just see how things go! I'll relax into it".

Claire walked up to me and kissed me. No messing around. Straight in with the tongue. I immediately got a nice taste of whisky. Her tongue was pretty long and kissing her was hot. Very different. I went to hold her head - my standard way of kissing - and of course felt more hair than I'd ever felt before.

"Is that the first time you've kissed a girl?"

"It's the first time I've enjoyed it". Me and Claire both smiled and kissed again. Matt sat on a chair and just watched as he took his trainers off, seemingly enjoying it what he was watching.

"Have you done anything with girls?" she asked.

"Years ago. One sucked me off. That was it. I enjoy giving pleasure..."

Before I could continue, Matt spluttered as he sipped his whisky. "I can vouch for that. He fucking loves it". We all started laughing.

"Can I see?" Claire asked.

Matt seemed to be settling into the moment more. He stood up, still holding his whisky. I got on my knees and undid his belt buckle and jeans zipper. He was already pretty hard as I pulled his jeans down to his ankles.

"Nice cock" she said.

"Thanks!"

Matt's cock was just beautiful. Nicely meaty. Nicely veiny. A head that pulled back while still staying connected. Pretty much straight but just a hint of a bend. A cock that throbbed. It was a joy to suck.

He was already leaking a bit of pre-cum. I licked it with my tongue while my hands caressed his thighs. Claire stood and watched, sipping her whisky with one hand and the other resting on her crotch.

I slowly took his cock in my mouth. Matt groaned and grabbed my hair with his right hand. His whisky still sat tightly in his left.

Claire undid her trousers and took them off. She took her top off too. She had a dark grey bra and matching pants on. She sat down and enjoyed her whisky while her other hand stroked her thighs.

Matt wasn't sure where to look. He went from looking down at my mouth, to closing his eyes, to looking at Claire. She smiled at him. He groaned and tried to relax in the moment.

Matt was now fully hard in my mouth. His cock occasionally throbbed and jolted in my mouth. I can't think of a bigger turn on when giving pleasure than that moment.

I looked towards Claire as she undid her bra. A little like Matt's cock, her breasts were pretty perfect. They only very gently drooped as she removed her bra. She teased her nipples with her fingers while her hands caressed her breasts.

They were natural, firm, and quite beautifully shaped with small areolas and nipples that were begging for a tongue.

I wasn't really focusing on her tits and whether my tongue would enjoy her nipples. Instead my eyes fell lower. Her hand was starting to feel inside her pants. I could she that she was already wet.

I moved my mouth away from Matt's cock. I looked up at him and he nodded in a way to say "go. Try it". I moved over without standing up so I was still on my knees between Claire's legs. Matt took off his pants properly, went and sat next to Claire on the sofa. He kissed her gently. He removed his t-shirt and sat fully naked.

My hands worked their way up and down Claire's legs. She leaned back on the sofa and continued to run her fingers under her pants and over her pussy. Even though I had never done so to a woman, I wanted to please Claire. I wanted to taste her. I would soon be licking a woman's pussy.

I could see that just this sensation of my hands on her legs was enjoyable for Claire. Her pussy was clearly wet and her body was warm to touch.

I moved down to her ankles and kiss her calves. My hands massaged them and worked up her legs again, this time moving to the inside of her thighs. I pulled her pants down and removed them, looking up to see her pussy. It was completely hairless, a classic peach.

I was about to eat pussy for the first time, and I would need all my instincts and skills to adapt and respond to her body. To learn on the job.

I gently dove in. My tongue slid between her lips and pushed them out as my tongue slipped in between.

Its flavour was quite enchanting. A primal instinct arose in me: I wanted it. I heard myself moan softly and my tongue naturally moved up and down.

My whole mouth started to work. My tongue worked, and then my lips, and then gently sucking her lips, before.y tongue swirled around her swelling pussy, while my tongue seemed to find her clit.

Claire's hand reached my head and I could feel her breathing in the way she felt my head. My hands continued to browse her thighs. They jolted every few seconds as my mouth explored her.

I moved her thighs wider and moved my head in deeper. Her breathing became quite laboured, and her moans became heavier. She started to feel comfortable with my mouth around her pussy. She felt that she could direct me. She had confidence that my mouth would respond. When my tongue rubbed her clit, she pushed me in firmer, with a gentle whispering "yes" affirming my movements. My mouth was now firmly locked on her pussy.

"Fuck" she sighed. "You're a fast learner!".

I laughed all while my tongue continued to do its work. All the while, Matt was sat there rock hard. Claire's hand moved from my head and moved over to grab his cock. Matt moaned. My own right hand moved from Claire's left thigh over to Matt's right thigh.

Matt and Claire kissed again. Matt moved his hands seamlessly over Claire's tits, every once in a while rubbing my hair and gently pushing me ever deeper into Claire's pussy.

Matt suddenly jumped up and stood on the sofa, his cock vertical above Claire's pussy and my head.

"Suck me" he smiled down at her. She duly obliged. No messing about. No foreplay. She went straight to town on his cock.

I moved my hands to grip his legs to hold him in place on my quite unstable sofa...

Claire was getting really wet. I heard her mixture of moans. Moans of pleasure and moans of gently choking on Matt's cock. Each time she moaned, my head moved in that little bit more.

Then ever so suddenly I found myself on familiar oral ground. She started to shake, she started to moan and groan more than previously. She started to thrust on my mouth. She started to tense a little more.

Claire was about to come.

She writhed and shook. I did my best to match her involuntarily movements as she exploded on to my tongue.

It was warm, it was silky, it was almost sweet. I didn't really know what I'd expected - Matt might say the same if he tastes my load for the first time - but it was nice. I did my best to continue, but it was clearly getting more and more difficult with every second.

She reached her hand through Matt's legs and pushed my head back. She took Matt's cock out of her mouth.

"Okay! Okay! Oh my god." I felt her energy escaping her while she gasped for air. For now, for at least a few seconds, her pussy was done.

"Wow". I said as I rose for air myself. "Nice. I enjoyed that".

Matt dropped back to standing on the floor. I had a sudden urge to coat his cock in pussy juice. I deepthroated him and he was slightly caught off guard but was quickly thrusting his cock deep in my mouth.

We stopped for a moment.

"How much of a break does your pussy need?" I asked.

"Haha. Why? Do you wanna fuck me?"

"Not really. I wanna watch him fuck you" I replied.

Claire laughed. "I was hoping I might watch him fuck you."

Matt laughed now. "Do I get a say in this...?"

We smiled and contemplated what might happen next...
I know this is an aging story on here, but that got me hard as hell! Lol. Had a few MMFs, but fuck that was hot!
