Stood Up

Epilogue

It was Kyle's birthday and they had started celebrating the night before.

Noah looked down at him as Kyle opened his eyes.

"Were you watching me sleep?" Kyle asked, as he blinked up at Noah.

"Maybe? Is that creepy? Or devoted?" Noah asked.

"Devoted, because I'm just so fucking gone for you," Kyle said, and Noah leaned down to kiss him.
Kyle didn't even think twice about it anymore. Morning breath be damned. Noah clearly didn't care, Emily didn't either.

"Where is Emily?" Kyle asked.

"She's already up and preparing a surprise for you."

"I thought I got my gift last night," Kyle said. They had had dinner at midnight, followed by languid and sweetly torturous sex. Just thinking back to it made Kyle's skin tingle and his cock take interest. Being tied up and played with was absolutely something he was interested in doing again. Soon.
Noah rolled so he was covering Kyle. Kyle knew Noah could feel his cock taking interested.

"Thinking about something nice?" Noah asked.

"Yeah, last night."

"You liked it," it wasn't a question.

Kyle licked his lips. He came really hard. Somehow having to wait for it made it better.
"Yeah, I liked it. The two of you were right. Anyhow, why is Emily up again?"

"Told you she is preparing your surprise."

"And you're here to distract me?"

"Keep you company," Noah replied.

He ran a finger over Noah's handsome face. "I like this."

"This?"

"Being blanketed by your body," Kyle answered. It gave him a sense of security that he hadn't know he had been missing in his previous relationships. Noah kissed his forehead, his eyelids, his nose and then his lips.

"I like it too," he whispered.

"Okay, you two can now get up," Emily said from the door. Kyle looked around Noah.

She was wearing an apron. Only an apron. It had frills on it.
"Holy shit," Kyle said and laughed. "It's like I'm living my own personal porn movie."

"We made it with love," Emily said. "Now get up. I have a surprise in the kitchen for you." She turned around and her ass was perfectly framed by a nice pink bow. Kyle groaned.

"If you play your cards right you can fuck us both against the kitchen counter, love," Noah said and rolled away, a second later he was on his feet, naked and glorious. His dark hair messy, his dark skin glowing in the morning sun. Kyle had to close his eyes and just breathe for a second. He had no idea how the hell he got so lucky, but he sent out a thank you to whoever might be listening for this incredible gift.
Noah smiled down on him and held out his hand, so Kyle grabbed it.

~+~
"So, the building adjoining to mine is for sale," Kyle said. They were sweaty and covered in come, and maybe there was a better time and place to have this conversation, but Kyle had been trying to say something about it for weeks now and time was running out.

Emily propped herself up on her elbow and looked at him. "You want to expand?"

"Well, yes, the shop is doing well, I am looking for an apprentice now, but I was thinking I could
join my home with the one next door."

"Oh," Emily said and then frowned. "Do you need that much space?"

"Maybe not for only me," Kyle answered. God, he was so bad at this. Really fucking bad. He was better at asking for kinky sex than he was at this.

Noah rolled over and kissed his shoulder, while he threw one of his legs over Kyle's. Effectively pinning him down. Kyle melted into it, felt a lot calmer too.

"Ask us," Noah said, his voice was this sexy rumble that did all kinds of things to Kyle and his heart and his cock too.

"Ask us what?" Emily said.

"If you want to move in with me," Kyle said in a rush. "I mean, not me, because it would be a whole new place, kinda? So it would be ours."

"Oh," Emily said and looked at Noah.

Was it too soon? "It doesn't have to be now. I just thought I'd ask if that was something you would like in the future and-" Emily kissed him to shut him up. Her red hair was a tangled mess, and her freckles were out in full force, because summer. He was so in love with her. And Noah.

"You have enough money to buy that place?" Noah asked.

"Yeah, not cash or anything, but I can make it work. There is enough for a down payment."

"Or," Emily said after sharing a look with Noah. "We could sell our place and pitch in. Make it really ours."

"You'd want that?" Kyle asked, because they would tie themselves to him via this property.

"Is that something you want?" Noah asked.

"Yeah," Kyle answered without any hesitation. It was something he wanted. He wanted to be tied to them like this. Have something that clearly said that the three of them belonged together.

"And you think it would be a good place to live for all of us?" Emily asked.

"It's enough space for sure. All of us could have their own spaces to work. Maybe even a photo studio downstairs for you, so you don't have to rent one anymore," Kyle answered.

"It would save time and money," Noah said.

"It would be a bit farther from your office," Kyle said, biting his lip.

"I have a car," Noah replied. "I can get up ten minutes earlier if that means I get to spend more time with you two. Can come home to you two."

"You want to look at the place with me sometime soon then?" Kyle asked.

"Yeah, we do," Emily answered, and Noah kissed his shoulder again.

"Okay," Kyle said. He felt like things were finally like they were supposed to be. Having been stood up nearly two years ago was the best thing that could have happen to him.
