Ménage à trios

1. Ari

I get asked a lot, what it's like dating two women, being a woman myself. I'll say, it's full of emotions, life changing sex, jealousy and a looooottttt of lust.

Being with Zayne & Rosie is the best thing that's happened to me.

I'm laying in bed, wrapped in Zayne's arms as Rosie saunters into my bedroom wearing a smile that makes my insides tingle.

"I wish I could stay." Rosie pouts and climbs in bed with us. Zayne pokes her lip out next.

"Me too, baby." She sighs. "Just quit. We'll figure everything else out."

With all three of us bringing in money, it's not like we're hurting. If Rosie wanted to quit and spend the day in between our legs, I wouldn't be mad. She rolls her eyes at Zayne.

"I'll quit when you move in."

Zayne sighs and says "Can we not do this today?"

Before Rosie can open her mouth, I pull her into my arms and leave kisses all over her cheeks. When she giggles, I smile and release her.

"Go to work babe. We'll be here when you get off."

"Fine." She kisses my lips before planting one onto Zayne's next.

Mmm. I love the way Zayne looks at her more than I love watching them kiss.

After Rosie leaves for work and Zayne and I are alone, she lays her head on my chest and releases a little giggle.

"What we doin' today, baby?" She asks while slipping a hand into my shorts.

"My mom wants me to come see her." I sigh.

It's been just about seven months since I seen my mom last. When she told me her house was one of God and to get out when I came out the closet with my relationship with Zayne all those months ago, I was too embarrassed and rejected to do anything besides walk out with my tail tucked.

I kinda figured she wouldn't understand my decision to be with a woman. I just didn't expect her to kick me to the curb like I didn't matter to her at all.

Zayne kisses my nose and brings a shudder from my toes to my ears as she lightly grazes my thigh with her nails.

"You gon' be aight?" She asks.

I nod.

"I can slide on mamas too, you know." She smirks when a smile crosses my face.

"Girl." I laugh and remove her hands from my pants before she gets started and I'm late to brunch.

"I'm just sayin'...you know I'm down to put paws on anybody when it comes to you. Mama too."

I lean into her embrace and connect our lips together briefly.

"Mmm, shower with me. Maybe you can get a taste."

"Bae, don't play wimme." She pouts and my insides quiver. I roll my eyes.

"You know I'm going to feed you, Zayne." I smirk. "Get in the shower."

*****

I'm ten minutes late meeting my mom at Denny's thanks to Zayne. The place isn't too crowded, which is good because I don't know if mom's gonna make a scene when she finds out I'm with two women this time and not just one.

"I was starting to think you weren't going to show, Ariana."

I cringe on the inside. Ugh, I hate hearing my first name.

"I'm here."

When her eyes fall on the new red mark on my neck, I jump into conversation to avoid the inevitable talk we're bound to have.

"How you doing, mama?"

"I'm well and blessed. I'm trying to wrap my head around my only child going seven months without reaching out to me once."

The frown on her face makes me feel bad for a second.

Until I remember the things she said.

"You know why I didn't reach out, mama. Did you order yet?" I try to pass over the conversation lightly because I'm not ready to have it yet.

Thankfully, neither is she.

"No. I was waiting for you."

"Alright...let's order, then." I mumble behind the menu in my hands.

After the food is ordered, mama and I hide behind artificial conversation until I can't take it anymore. I decide to get it over with. If it doesn't go well, I know I can call Zayne to go get something to eat with me because I'm starving!

"I know you have questions to ask ma. Just ask so we can talk and get past this."

"Why would I have questions, honey?" She takes a sip from her glass. I roll my eyes.

"You're acting weird and we haven't talked since I told you I have a girlfriend. So if you have something to ask, go ahead."

"I thought it was a phase." She says quietly. "You're still with...your friend?"

I nod and think about Rosie too.

"How long do you plan to keep this up?"

I snicker with a head shake.

"You mean how long am I going to be gay?"

"You are NOT gay." She snaps and then looks around, embarrassed.

Thankfully, nobody is paying attention to us. Irritation snakes it's arms around my chest quietly.

"Okay, mama." I sigh.

What's the point? My mom is never going to accept me being with a woman, let alone two.

Now, I just have to accept that and move on.
