Sweater Weather

Chapter II

We walked to Mattia's house quietly, holding hands. It already felt pretty normal. Kairi's was pretty warm. I want to hold him. Or I'm touch starved.

Mattia opened the door before either one of us could knock. He scooped Kai up in a tight hug, lifting him up off the ground.

"Hey baby. I'm sorry bubs I didn't mean to be a dick." He kissed the side of his head firmly, petting his hair softly. I kinda sat there awkwardly.

Mattia quick kissed Kai and put him down, giving me a little smile. This was horribly awkward. Apparently Mattia got this today and promptly hugged me, picking me up too.

Kai giggled a tiny bit. I relaxed a little and wrapped my arms around his neck, leaning my head and on his chest. I felt so warm. I'm so soft.

Mattia quick kissed my head and started carrying me up to his room. Kairi followed, grabbing Mattia's hand. I thought this would be awkward, I really did. But the way that Mattia was holding me made me rethink that.

Of course as soon as we got on the bed Kai and Mattia were all over each other.

I sat there awkwardly, staring off at nothing. Kai pulled me closer but really I was just leaning on them.

Eventually Mattia turned on a movie. I fell asleep halfway through.

So there was definitely a learning curve. But we had been dating for about a week now, and there was mostly smooth sailing. I mean I did feel pretty awkward sometimes, when they were all over each other and I was sort of the third wheel, but they were getting better at including me.

I had been thinking for a couple days now. If it was the three of us, could we add another?

So I was going to ask today.

"Hey guys?" I asked softly. I was currently spooning Kai while Mattia half laid on him.
"What is it?" Kai asked soothingly, running his fingers through Mattia's hair.
Mm, once you're finished I have something to say too." Mattia sort of head butted Kai's chest. I couldn't help but let my heart swell.

"What would you guys say to adding another person?"
"Depends who it is."
"Like, I dunno. Alejandro?" So maybe I had a crush on him and have for almost a year now. Maybe.

"I would say that is literally what I was going to ask." Mattia perked up over Kai to smile at me. Of course I smiled back. Mattia's smile had always been contagious.

"Then it's settled." Kairi sat up, disturbing our little cuddle pile. "I'll text him to ask."

I sat up too. Mattia pouted and laid his head in Kai's lap. "I didn't say you could stop holding me."
"Oh calm yourself you big baby."
"Hey!"
"Alvaro hold our boyfriend so he stops being a whiny bitch."
"Matti you act like a bottom."
"Hey!!"

Kairi laughed loudly and started texting Alejandro. "You guys are dumb."
"You love us."
"Eh."
"Hoe!"

I smiled brightly and crawled over to Mattia, gently putting his head in my lap. He looked up at me and smiled softly as I carded my fingers through his hair. I smiled back and quick kissed his nose.

It was sort of weird being affectionate with Mattia sometimes. I mean, it was getting easier as time passed. But it was weird sometimes, as we were both here for liking Kairi.

"Alright. So my text says, 'hey so Alvaro wanted to kno if u wanted join our relationship, ud b dating any of us you want to and who is ok w it y'know'" Kai read out loud, bent over his phone.

"Just say he'd be dating all of us." Mattia murmured from my lap, rolling over to lay face down. Cute.

"Alright, alright."

He edited the text and sent it, scooting over to also lay in my lap. I smiled and pet them both.

"Kai was that your phone?"
"Was it? Can you check I'm comfy."
"I am too!"
"I got it, I got it. God." I reach over and snatched up his phone.

Ale
😳 Rly
I mean like sure 😳

"Oh my god this dumbass." I mumbled, petting Mattia's hair more than Kai's. Kai whined loudly.

"Hush. What do I respond with."
"Tell him to come over and properly cuddle me!"
"You have no fucking chill. Fine, I'll tell him to come over. Not the second part."
"Hoe."

After a bit Ale came in, knocking politely. Mattia grumbled and got up, leaving Kai in my arms, opening the door for him. "You don't have to knock dude."
"I dunno it's just— feels weird."
"It's the same just making out."
"I—"

I sighed deeply, "Don't worry they haven't even made out with me yet."
"We haven't?"
"No??"
"Mm. C'mere."
"No shut up."
"Awww. But I wanted to make out."
"I hate you."

Mattia laughed and picked Ale up casually, sitting on the edge of the bed. Ale squirmed out of his arms and crawling over to me and Kai. I leaned up on him and relaxed, closing my eyes.

Ale shifted and quick kissed Kai sweetly. Kai grinned brightly and moved into his lap instead. Mattia scooted over and scooped us all into his arms.

This was... calming.
