Chapter 25 'The Talk' In Dark Times

Kota looked back and forth between the guys, sitting silently staring at my back, and me.  "Did we miss something?"  Kota asked with concern.

Sean stood up, "Just in time.  Please come sit with us.  We have a discussion to continue from earlier."

Kota laced our fingers together as he pulled me over to the couch.  Just as we got to the couch, Owen slipped behind me, took hold of my hips, and pulled me down onto his lap.  I curled into a ball in his lap, still holding Kota's hand.  Sean stood in front of all of us, his hands behind his back.  "Um, Owen.  You might want to place Sang in between you and Kota."

"I don't get to have her in my lap very often, Sean.  Whatever needs to be said in our family meeting, can be done with Miss Sorenson on my lap."  Owen was smoothing down my hair against my back.

Sean cocked a sideways smirk, "As you wish, Owen."  He looked around at everyone bringing his hands together in front of him, "The reason we all need to be here for this discussion, and I remind you to act your age, is because during the trial, Sang got to hear Diesel inform the panel about his fuck philosophy.  Which brings up our need, as a family, to discuss and plan our own fuck philosophy."  I blushed at how casual Sean was able to discuss sex in a room full of people.  To hide my blush, I tried to turn into Owen's chest.  But the way he was holding my hips was making it difficult for me to turn away from the other's curious eyes on me.  I wiggled to shift my weight and was suddenly picked up and placed between Owen and Kota.  Owen took hold of my hand that Kota had not been holding and Sean chuckled.  "That's what I thought."

Kota asked, shock clear in his voice, "Why did Diesel share his fuck philosophy?"

I answered before thinking, "He was proving that it wasn't him.  He told us he would never force a woman to have sex because she wouldn't receive any pleasure from the act.  And he is all about pleasuring a woman.  It's his sex philosophy."  I sounded almost flippant to my own ears.  But then my brain caught up to what Came out of my mouth and I blushed even more, looking down at my knees to avoid the eyes that were locked on me as I spoke.

"Well then," Owen broke the silence, "What exactly are we sharing here?  Our own personal likes and dislikes?"  Oh God.  He sounds so casual about this topic.  Can this get any more embarrassing?

"I already told Cupcake my philosophy.  I enjoy it immeasurably and feel we should take part often.  Then I invited Cupcake to join me when the urge struck."  North tried to smack Luke on the back of the head, but it was like he knew it was coming.  He dodged it and spoke up, "We are being adults here, North!  Act your age!"

North growled at his brother.  Sean held up his hands to stop any more outbursts.  "This is why I feel the need for everyone to be present for this discussion.  Next person to attack another will get hours tomorrow."  Sean looked at North then everyone else.  When he looked at me, he asked, "Sang, we would like to hear from you first.  We, my brothers and I, have all agreed to love you.  And I believe you have equal feelings for all of us?"

"Y-ye-yes.  I do."  I took a deep breath, then looked up into Sean's caring, loving, understanding hazelly green eyes.  "I could never choose just one of you.  Maybe that makes me selfish," I looked around at each of them, but I didn't see anger or sadness like I thought.  I saw happiness, love, hope, and desire.  "But I really don't care at this point."

Kota squeezed my hand and I turned to look at him.  "Coming from a purely statistical and logical brain perspective, there is 1 female for every 6 males here in camp.  We are not the only ones that will need to have a discussion similar to this.  But I would have a hard time being this civil and level headed with any other guy, outside of my family.  I trust my brothers with my life.  And with the love of my life, too, apparently."  Kota gave me a shy smile as his cheeks tinted pink.  He pushed his glasses up his nose from the bridge of the glasses.  It was such a cute, vulnerable, boyish move, I acted on instinct.  Squeezing his hand back, I leaned forward and kissed the corner of his mouth.

"Thank you Kota.  You have my heart forever."  I reassured him back.

"Sang, Princess.  I was raised in a family that felt selfishness was a way of life, I was expected and encouraged to demand things be mine and only mine.  But being a part of this Academy family," he used his hand to gesture to everyone in the room, "confirmed that my parents were wrong.  Life isn't just about me and what I want.m it is about what those I love and consider family want and need.  And we all want and need you, Sang.  I am happy you are willing to be a part of our family.  With nine of us, we have a lot of love we are willing to give."

Sean took the floor again, "That was a perfect segue into the heart of the matter, Victor.  Thank you."  Sean looked at me and had a serious doctorly look.  "There ARE nine of us.  And we are all willing to love you, in every possible way, if you allow us.  This is where we need to know your sex philosophy, Sang.  I know you took an abstinence only course in junior high, and you have informed us you have not had a boyfriend before.  So I am going with the assumption that you are a virgin."  I covered my flaming tomato red face with my hands.  This is so embarrassing.  I acknowledged his question with nodding my head.

Owen leaned over and whispered in my ear, "There is no reason to be embarrassed, Sang."  I peeked at him between my fingers.  He wasn't making fun of me.  Taking a deep breath, I fortified my resolve and removed my hands from my face, looking at each of the boys.  No one was doing anything to make fun of me.

Sean took the reigns again, "Right, well, with that knowledge on the table, I am telling you right now, Sang, you are in the driver's seat when it comes to anything sexual or intimate with any of us.  No one, and I mean NO ONE, will push Sang into doing anything she does not want to do.  Even if it is something you have done with her before.  If she says no, or backs off in any way, you are to stop.  If you cannot stop...get up and leave.  Do I make myself clear?"

"I am willing and I will obey."  The other eight said in unison.

"I too am willing," I told them, "but I have a concern."

"What's that Peanut?"

"Um, well, I've never DONE any of this relationship stuff.  I don't know what I'm doing or even..." I swallowed hard, my mouth suddenly dry, and looked at my feet again when I finished my thought, "HOW to go about doing any of it."

"Oy, I'll fucking teach you whatever the fuck you want to know!"  Gabriel offered to the laughter of his brothers.

"He's not the only one willing to teach you things, Aggele."  Silas winked from across the room and my heart fluttered at his words and actions.

I fanned my face with my hand, "Is it just me, or did it get warmer in here all of a sudden?"  There was a bead of sweat that was running down my chest between my boobs and I wanted to wipe it away but didn't want to draw attention to my chest by me touching myself.

There were multiple groans from different guys, "Fuck, Sang Baby!  You say you don't know how or what to do, but you keep making my dick harden and twitch."

"It's true, Cupcake.  That game of spoons we just played... You had a room full of little soldiers standing at attention, and you didn't even know it!"

"Little soldiers?"  Gabriel asked incredulously.  "Speak for your own damn LITTLE soldier.  My MAJOR is plenty big!"

"Major?"  Nathan asked, "You wish dude!  I'm sporting a Major!"  Most of the guys were chuckling as they teased one another.

"They can be happy with their soldiers and their Majors, I've got a fucking General!"  North exclaimed.

"Well if you're a General, North.  I'm a 5 Star General."  Silas pounded North on the shoulder.

"Show off."  North smirked at his friend.  Silas laughed in return.
