We moved at a snail’s pace. We were wary and careful friends, feeling our way through our own emotional minefields. I think any one of us left alone would have sunk into a well of depression and given up on life. The three of us together lifted each other up. It was like someone turned the sun on when we were together. Bella lived far away from Penny and me. It was a hurdle we all wanted to get across.

After a lot of talking and planning, the three of us bought a house together. We each had our own bedroom, and by the time I was finished, each bedroom had a full bathroom. We sold our old houses, and suddenly, my business grew by two employees.

Training them was a bit rough at first, but they were genuinely excited about the work. They were willing to learn, and both had the touch. You either have the touch, or you don’t. Some people will always leave the widget too loose or tighten it too tight. Some people hit the board more than the nail and are fine with that. They don’t have the touch. The touch is an almost Zen-like connection between the brain, the hands, and the task. All working in harmony in the fight against entropy. In my line of work, the touch is a necessity.

It wasn’t all that long before both women were competent. Then, I watched them blossom as their tools became second nature and their creativity began to color our work. Our business changed. We were doing less and less handyman stuff and replacing it with renovations that got a lot of attention. Our business grew to capacity.

We were out to dinner one evening, and the place was packed. We had just been called to the podium and I was standing next to a couple being told their wait would be an hour. The young woman, getting ready to seat the three of us, checked her grease board. “Uhm, I have a table for five. Will that work?”

I looked at the couple next to me. “Sure, hold on a second.”

I turned to the couple. “Excuse me, but I heard them tell you about your wait time. We’re just sitting down now and have two empty places at our table. You’re welcome to join us if you would like.”

After a moment’s hesitation, they agreed. The young woman grabbed two more menus before escorting us to our table. We let her drop off the menus, and I reached out to shake the man’s hand. “I’m Dan, and this is Bella. The other beauty with the questionable taste to hang out with me is Penny.”

His and her smiles were genuine. “I’m Dave, and this beauty is my wife Jan.”

We got seated as the waiter arrived and got our drink orders out of the way. That was the start of a great friendship and the unexpected interview of the two employees that rounded out our company.

They went to work with us the following week, and we never looked back. Our business grew and quickly reached the limits of our new capacity. We decided we were fine with that. The five of us agreed that we had plenty of work, could let our creative juices flow, and were perfectly happy with just the five of us.

Time passed. Bella, Penny, and I had been living together for a little over a year. I didn’t resist intimacy, but I didn’t pursue it either. I wanted to, but I wasn’t sure how to break out of my celibacy. Then, there was the issue of loving two women. How could I pick one and not deny the other simultaneously? I was at a loss for what to do, so I did nothing.

I went to settle in my recliner one evening and found it gone. In its place was a new couch. “Penny! Bella! Where’d my chair go?”

The two women came laughing down the hall. Penny grinned at me. “No more of you on your own little island. From now on, we’re all relaxing together on the couch.”

I opened my mouth to argue, but nothing came out. I shrugged my acceptance and started to sit down. Bella stopped me. “Not like that. Here, Penny and I will show you.”

The next thing I know, I’m sitting back on what proved to be a very comfortable couch, and I’ve got Penny snuggled up on my left while Bella’s nose is nuzzling my neck on the right. I was in hog heaven. I looked forward to the evening in front of the television every night after that.

One night, a few weeks later, I tossed and turned for an hour or so before getting out of bed. I was walking down the hall to the kitchen when I heard them. I walked over to Penny’s door. It was gapped open a few inches, and my eyes were drawn by the sound. I could clearly see her bed lit by the candles. I could also clearly see Bella in Penny’s arms as they made love. I gave them their privacy and went back to my bedroom.

I was honestly happy for them. Our friendship had led to their love for each other, and their happiness was everything to me. I would be lying if I said I wasn’t devastated anyway. For a moment, I thought there might have been a chance for me. It wasn’t meant to be, and I decided to start looking for somewhere to live soon. They didn’t need me in their way.

The next morning, I was standing in the kitchen pouring my first cup of coffee when they came in together. Both were wearing the extremely sexy negligees I’d seen on Penny’s floor the night before. I was getting an amazing view of what was forbidden fruit for me now.

I smiled at them and pulled them both against my chest. “I’m happy for you both. I accidentally heard you last night. I swear I wasn’t trying to spy on you. As soon as I saw you, I left you to your privacy. I’m so glad the two of you found each other.

“I’ll start looking for a place to live. You need time with just the two of you, and I will not be in your way.”

“Fuck That!” Bella looked like she wanted to smack me.

“Oh, Hell No!” I’d never seen Penny look angry like that.

Two very irate beauties pushed off my chest and glared at me. Bella poked me in the chest. “You! Fucking! Stop it!”

Penny tried to pull off a glare, but her sweet face wasn’t very good at it. “Yeh, mister. You don’t get out of it that easy.”

I was puzzled. “Out of what?”

Penny threw up her hands. “Having sex with us, dumbass!”

I was nearly speechless. “I really don’t understand.”

They pushed and shoved me toward the table. Bella pushed me into a chair and then caressed my cheek. She looked at me with fondness and maybe a bit of aggravation. “Look, you! There are three of us in this relationship, and we’ve been really patient. We’ve given you time to get used to a woman’s touch, and you sit there all passive and shit like it doesn’t affect you. Who are you trying to fool? It surely isn’t us, so it must be yourself.”

I threw up my hands. “Yes, that’s part of it. It’s been so long, and my confidence is shit. I could have gotten over that. I know I could’ve because that’s what I know in my heart I wanted. What paralyzed me was both of you. How do I choose? I didn’t want to choose, but I couldn’t have you both in that way. Now you’ve found each other, and sex is off the table. You have each other now.”

Penny looked at Bella. “Is he really that clueless?”

Bella shook her head. “Na, he’s just not used to thinking about the possibilities.”

She looked into my eyes. “Penny and I didn’t make love because we had fallen deeply in monogamous love with each other. We decided that the only way we could be with you was if we could be together, too. It takes the three of us for this to work.

“We needed to see if we could be together before we involved you. The last thing we wanted was to find out we didn’t like each other that way, right in front of you.”

Penny grinned. “Yeah, we experimented a little and found out we liked it a lot. One thing kind of led to another, and the next thing you know, Bella and I are making love, and it was amazing. Last night was the most romantic and loving night of my life. I’m in love with Bella, and she’s in love with me.”

Bella tilted her head down until her lips were almost touching mine. “You ready for a little revelation, Dan? We’re both also deeply in love with you, and it is possible for the three of us to love each other in every way. There’s no rule saying otherwise, and if there were, I would happily ignore it. So would Penny.

“Now the question is, what about you? Think for a moment about whatever twisted rule in your head is keeping you from this.”

She kissed me and continued to kiss me until my lips opened, and she could plunge her tongue into my mouth. I was left gaping like a baby bird with my tongue sticking out when she pulled away. Penny quickly took her place, and I tasted her tongue for the first time. I fell into the kiss and probably would have stayed there indefinitely if Bella hadn’t interrupted. “Penny, get him on his feet.”

Bella looked so fucking hot as she gave me a sexy smirk. “We’re taking you to the bedroom, and we’re going to spend the day fucking you back to life, even if it kills you.”

I let them pull me, stumbling to my feet. “Uh, what about work?”

Bella grinned. “I texted Dave and Jan while you were sucking Penny’s face. We’re good. Your last excuse is gone, so move your ass. I’ve waited years for this, and I will not wait another second.”

Penny was grinning from ear to ear and nodding her head. “What she said. I’m tired of waiting, too. Get your ass moving and get naked! I want to see all of that hot body.”

My tendency toward mental self-abuse had become an ingrained habit since Marcy. That soul-killing negative inner voice was surprisingly easy to ignore as I watched Bella’s hot ass walking down the hallway. I’ll admit that I was as nervous as a new bride, but they helped me through it. I know it’s shocking, but it turns out that two extremely hot and sexy women can easily convince a celibate male to have sex with them. I know! I was as shocked as you are! I never got around to complaining about being manipulated.

I was surprised at how quickly and easily we came together. We stood next to the bed, and it seemed like our minds were in sync. We didn’t get in each other’s way. Instead, our movements complimented each other. I traded deep kisses with both women and kissed other places when their lips were together. I barely noticed them slowly stripping me. My mind was occupied with the sensations their kisses and hands were producing.

They finally got me naked and quickly lost their negligees before each of them grabbed one of my hands and led me onto the bed. They didn’t give me a chance to lock up my brain over which of them would be first and how to be fair to both of them. They took control and guided me where they wanted me.

Penny gave me a playful shove, and I fell back on the bed. Instantly, I had a beautiful woman lying on either side. Bella kissed me hard, and while our tongues played, Penny was nibbling my neck and ear. I moaned into Bella’s mouth when Penny began slowly stroking my aching cock with her hand. Bella’s lips left mine, and I opened my eyes to see her kissing Penny with obvious affection and heat. Their lips separated, and they both looked down and grinned at the look on my face.

I was nearly overcome with emotion as I caressed their beautiful faces. “You are both so damn beautiful. This is a dream I never want to wake from.”

My comment was met by a chorus of, “Ahh, you’re so sweet.”

Then, they got down to business. They grinned at each other, and their heads lowered. They began kissing my neck and traveled south from there. Their tongues flicked my nipples on the way down my stomach. By the time their heads were hovering over my raging erection, I was ready to scream.

They were having a great time. Their tongues licked up and down my shaft, and they let out little moans when their tongues brushed across each other. Penny was the first to take me into her mouth, and it was wonderful. She sucked me so lovingly, but she didn’t stay after it long. Bella quickly replaced her as Penny kissed her way back up my body, and our lips met again. Bella sucked my cock while Penny kissed me passionately. The two of them set me on fire. I fought the urge to throw one of them on her back and fuck her senseless.

I was playing with Penny’s amazing tits, and our tongues were dancing. She had me so into it I barely noticed as Bella’s mouth left my cock. A few seconds later, I practically screamed into Penny’s mouth as Bella lowered herself onto my cock. Penny noted my reaction and broke our kiss. She leaned back on the bed and settled in to watch. I groaned, “Bella, please stop for a minute.”

Bella looked at me with concern and disappointment. I smiled at Penny. “Penny, sweetheart, you’re welcome to watch, but you need to be seated on my face when you do. I need both of you for our first time.”

She shivered happily and was on my face facing Bella in a second. Her taste was sublime. I couldn’t wait to complete the taste test with Bella. Bella was grinding her pussy on my cock, and from her muffled moans, I assumed Penny was kissing her hard.

I was frighteningly close to cumming already and was fighting it tooth and nail when Bella moaned loudly, and my crotch was suddenly very wet. She stopped moving with my cock as deep into her as it would go, and I could feel her quivering as she orgasmed. She rolled off me onto the bed, and I focused my full attention on Penny’s sweet pussy. Her cute little ass wiggled as she ran her clit across my tongue, helping me get her to the place she needed to be. She leaned forward and took my cock in her mouth, and that set her off. Her thighs clamped my head as she came on my face. It was glorious!

Penny dropped to the bed next to me and Bella slid up on the other side. She put her mouth to my ear and whispered, “Take her now, Dan. Give her that big cock she wants so much.”

I knew when to follow orders and moved between Penny’s legs. She looked up at me with such affection and want that I had to kiss her. Our lips were still connected when I brushed my cock between her labia. Her wetness spread on the head of my cock, and I swirled the wet head around her clit. She opened herself as far as she could for me and it was time. She watched me position my cock and push inside her. She moaned as I slid in deep, and her eyes never left our joining as I slid back, then penetrated her again.

I held the back of her thighs and used them to hold her legs apart as I began to long stroke deep into her pussy. Bella threw a leg over Penny’s head and lowered her pussy onto Penny’s mouth. Penny soon had Bella rushing toward her second orgasm. I settled into a nice pace designed to build Penny’s desire to the breaking point and past it.

Bella began moaning loudly, and within moments, I had the privilege of seeing her o-face for the first time. It was too much for her oversensitive pussy, and she rolled off Penny to lay quivering on the bed. Now, I could see Penny’s brilliant blue eyes as we approached the magic moment between us.

I could tell from the joy on her face that Penny wanted my cum inside her, and suddenly I was there. I nearly blacked out from the sheer ecstasy of it. My cock spasmed over and over as my cum jetted deep into her. I still don’t know if she orgasmed because of what I was doing or because of the look on my face when I came. Finally spent, I managed to support most of my weight while I kissed her deeply.

I eventually softened and regretfully pulled out before collapsing on the bed between the two women I loved. They snuggled up against me and I sighed with contentment. “How in the world did I get so lucky?”

They both chuckled. Bella seemed to be the ringleader of the two, and she confirmed my theory when she spoke, “See, that wasn’t so hard. Well, it was actually really hard, and long, and fat, and delicious, but you see my point. From now on, you don’t need to worry about being fair. Penny and I will take care of that. Oh! We also want alone time with you. The three of us together are how it was meant to be, but that doesn’t mean we can’t connect as couples, too.”

I hugged them until they groaned, then kissed them. When I came up for air, I sat up in bed so that I could see them both. “I love you. I never thought I would ever say that again. Now I’m saying it to both of you. From now on, I’m in your hands, for the most part. I reserve the right to ravish whichever of you I catch first, so you had better be on your toes. I’ll be waiting to ambush you when you least expect it.”

Penny gave me her innocent little girl look, which she could pull off effortlessly. “You big-cocked meany, molesting my innocent little pussy whenever you want. What will I do? I guess I don’t have a choice. You have that big muscle, er, I mean muscles, and I’m just a little thing.”

Bella laughed, and the two of us commenced tickling Penny. A few minutes later, we were washing each other’s bodies, and I took advantage of the opportunity to study them in detail. We snuggled together and napped for a while. I have never felt so content.
