Circle of Love

Circle Of Love - Party Boi (Phillip)

"Aren't you gonna get dressed?" My partner David Ray asked, as he moved past me in the hallway. "Ty is gonna be here in a few minutes."

I shrugged. "I'm ready." I was wearing one of my tightest pair of jeans, and nothing else. I thought I looked just fine.

David shook his head at me and went into the kitchen. I made my way into the living room and plopped down on the sofa. A moment later my other partner Allen Strayer, came into the room. He took a look at me laying on the sofa and came over and sat down next to me.

"You look nice," He said, smiling at me.

"Thank you," I said. "David asked me if I was going to get dressed."

Allen laughed. "Well it's not like Ty hasn't seen you naked before." He leaned down and kissed me on the forehead. I knew he liked to tease me about the time my best friend Ty Washington walked into our bedroom when I was asleep in bed, naked.

"Where's Brandon?" I asked. Brandon was Allen's brother, who had recently moved in with us.

"He's upstairs, changing," Allen said. "I think I am gonna go check on him."

"Make sure he looks hot for Ty," I said.

"Yeah," Allen said, getting up off the sofa and leaving the room.

Things had been kind of interesting for me the past few days. My boyfriend's brother had moved in with us. He had met my best friend Ty and the two of them had really seemed to hit it off.

My name is Phillip McMurray. I'm 20 and live with my two boyfriends in a pretty cool little townhouse. Yeah, I said two boyfriends. A lot of people think that is strange. But I am totally in love with both David and Allen just the same. I met them after they had already been together for a few years, and the feelings I had for both of them were hard for me to understand at first. But when they approached me with their feelings for me, asking me to come live with them and be a part of their lives, everything kind of just clicked. I go to school, but since it it summer and I am not taking any extra classes, I am off. I work part time at a clothing store in the local mall, and that's pretty cool.

Tonight we were having a few friends over to the house to hang out. David had rented a few movies and Ty was bringing drinks. Later on our friends Rob Manning and Jason Taylor were gonna stop by. We had decided to call for pizza, which we would probably to once Ty arrived.

As I lay on the sofa, I heard a knocking at the door. I got up and went down the hall to the front door. I could see Ty outside with a brown bag in his hand. I opened the door.

"Hey sexy," I said, smiling at him.

"Here, take this," He said, shoving the bag into my arms. I could hear the clinking of glass bottles hitting one another and I took the bag.

"Is this for me?" I asked, looking into the bag.

"Yeah, and everyone else," Ty said. "I have one more bag in the car. I'll be there in a sec."

I waited for him to get the other bag and then the two of us made our way into the kitchen. David was there, opening up bags of chips and putting them into large bowls.

"Hey, there's the man with the drinks," David said. He took the bag from Ty, set it on the counter and then gave Ty a hug. I set the bag I had been carrying on the counter as well.

"Did you guys order the pizza yet?" Ty asked.

"Not yet," David said. "We were waiting for you."

Ty grinned. He had once dated a manager of a pizza place, and could still use his charm to get a discount. He grabbed the phone. "What do you guys want on your pizzas?"

Allen and Brandon came into the room and we all figured out what kind of pizza to order. Ty called it in, and then we all went into the living room. David, Allen and I quickly sat on the sofa together, leaving Brandon and Ty to sit on the loveseat. I caught Allen'e eye as the two of them sat down, and he winked at me.

"So which one of these movies do you want to watch first?" David asked, picking up the DVD's from an end table and handing them over to Ty and Brandon. They chose one and David put it in. Then he got up off the sofa. "What do you all want to drink?" Ty and Brandon both wanted coke with rum, Allen wanted a fuzzy navel. "And I know what you want," David said, looking at me with a grin. I was a fan of Sex on the Beach. David headed out of the room, switching off the lights. As he did, I noticed Ty lean over and whisper something in Brandon's ear. I leaned over onto Allen's shoulder.

"Looks like they're getting along just fine," I said softly.

"They were getting along pretty well the other day from what I remember," Allen said to me. "Remember all the flirting they were doing?"

I smiled. It was good to see the two of them getting along. They seemed to like each other, and they really were pretty well matched for one another.

David soon came back in with our drinks. I sipped mine and took a moment to savor the taste. I could be a very quick drinker, so I told myself that I wasn't going to over-do it.

During the movie I found myself catching little things across the room. Ty putting his hand on Brandon's leg. Brandon making comments to Ty about the movie. I was sure that Allen had noticed it too.

Towards the end of the movie, the doorbell rang. I got up and went to the door. It was Rob and Jason. I could tell that Jason had already been drinking a little bit. He grabbed me and put his hand on my chest as soon as I opened the door.

"Hey there baby," He said to me, smiling. "Don't you look all hot tonight?"

"Thanks Jason," I said. He let go of me and went into the house. I looked up at Rob who was smiling as well.

"Hey, Phillip," Rob said, giving me a hug. "How are you?"

"I'm good," I said, holding up my empty drink. "But I need another one of these."

Rob laughed. "You and Jason are just alike." Behind him I could see another car pulling up, probably the pizza guy.

"Can you go get Ty, and tell him the pizza guy is here?" I asked.

"Sure thing," Rob said. He went into the house. I stood in the doorway as the guy got out of the car with the pizzas. As he made his way up the walk, Ty came up behind me.

"I guess I'm supposed to pay for all this?" He asked.

"Didn't David give you money?" I asked.

Ty grinned, and held out two twenty dollar bills. "I was just messing with ya."

I shook my head and turned to go back into the house. I went to the kitchen where David was fixing drinks for Jason and Rob. I handed him my empty glass.

"I guess you want another one of these then huh?" David asked me. I nodded. "All right, just be paitent and wait your turn."

"Allen's brother's pretty cute," Rob said to me.

I laughed. "Ty thought the same thing."

"Yeah, I noticed the two of them sitting together in there when I cam in," Rob said.

"It's nothing," David said, handing Rob a glass. "Allen and Phillip seem to think they're setting the two of them up."

"I see," Rob said, nodding. "I wouldn't mind being set up with him." We all laughed.

A few drinks and another movie later, we were all having a good time laughing and carrying on. Somehow I ended up on the loveseat with Jason, and Rob had taken my place on the sofa. Brandon and Ty were laying on the floor, looking like they were about to make out. There was a movie on, but I don't know that any of us were really paying attention to it. Jason had his hand on my chest, and I was sitting on his lap. I was a little buzzed, but I knew my limits. Every time Jason's hand went below my belly button, I would gently guide it back upwards. I liked Jason as a friend, but I was not about to cheat on David and Allen. I managed to catch Brandon and Ty about to kiss on the floor and kicked Ty in the back. He turned around and looked at me. I simply pointed up and mouthed the words "Go Upstairs". He grinned at me and turned back to Brandon. A moment later they were up and out of the room. I saw Allen give me a strange look, but he didn't seem to mind. We all knew they were going to go fuck. I decided that I needed to get out of the room. I got up off the loveseat and made my way through the kitchen and out onto the back deck. I climbed up on the railing and sat, sipping my drink.

A few moments later I heard the door open. I looked to see Jason coming out to join me. He lit a cigarette, and came over to stand next to me.

"Why'd ya leave all the sudden?" He asked.

I shrugged. "I wanted to get out in the fresh air."

"Well, at least now we're alone," Jason said, smiling at me.

"Yeah, I guess," I said. Jason put his hand on my leg. I knew that having him touch me so much was most likely going to make Allen and David uncomfortable, but Jason knew that I wasn't gonng do anything with him. It was all just harmless flirting to me.

"I don't know if Rob is gonna be able to drive home," Jason said randomly.

"He hasn't been drinking too much," I said.

"I guess not," Jason said. His hand began exploring my thigh, up and down. I gave him a look, but he was not paying attention. I was starting to get the feeling that Jason was trying to come on to me. Maybe it was just the alcohol, but it was starting to make me nervous. I didn't want David or Allen to come out onto the deck and see Jason this close to me.

"I think I'm ready for another drink," I said, hopping down off the railing and heading back inside. Jason wasn't done his cigarrette yet, so I was hoping he would stay outside a little longer. He did.

I came into the kitchen and shut the door behind me, leaning my back against the door. I noticed David at the counter, pouring a drink.

"Hey babe," He said, looking up at me.

"Hey," I said. "Just needed some fresh air."

David grinned at me. "I see you're empty," He said, pointing at my glass.

"Yeah," I said, walking over and handing him the glass. "You can fill me up baby."

"I like the sound of that," David said. He leaned in close to me and kissed me on the lips. As he did, I heard the kitchen door opening behind me. I wrapped my arms around David's neck and pulled him close to me, kissing him hard.

I heard Jason go past us and into the other room. I let go of David and stepped away.

"That was nice," David said, laughing.

"You're smarter than that," I said.

"You mean you didn't just have the strong desire to kiss me like that?" David asked, pretending to look hurt.

"I always want to kiss you baby," I said, putting my hand on his chest.

He smiled. "Good." He began pouring me another drink. "Was Jason bothering you that much?"

I shrugged. "It was nothing. I just needed to get away for a little bit."

David nodded. He stirred the drink he had made for me and then handed me the glass. "I think Rob and Jason are going to leave soon anyway, and then you, me and Allen are gonna have some fun of our own."

I laughed. "Oh really?"

David leaned over and planted a quick kiss on my cheek. "Come on, let's get back in there." He took my hand and led me back into the living room. Jason was sitting on Rob's lap and Allen was laying down on the sofa on his back.  David and I sat on the floor with our backs to the sofa. The movie was almost over, so I leaned my head against David's shoulder while we watched the end.

After the movie was over, Rob and Jason decided to leave. Jason asked me to walk out with him. I sighed and agreed, noticing David giving me a little smile.

"Allen and I will be upstairs," He whispered to me as I made my way down the hall towards the door.

I stopped on the front step. "You guys be careful going home," I said.

"We're only going to my house," Rob said. "I'm gonna keep this one here with me tonight." He wrapped his arm around Jason's shoulder.

"Ooh, how nice," I said, smiling. "Drunken company."

"I'm not that drunk," Jason said.

"Yeah, sure," Rob said. He stepped up to me and gave me a hug and a quick kiss. "I'll see you later boy."

"Take care of him, ok?" I said.

"I will," Rob said. He turned and walked down the walk.

Jason stepped up to me and wrapped his arms around me. "I really wanted you tonight," He said in my ear. I felt his lips meet my neck. I gently pushed him away.

"Go home with Rob," I said. "You guys will have a nice time."

"I'll call you," Jason said, letting go of me and making his way to Rob's car. I watched the two of them get in and drive away. Then I went back into the house, making sure to lock the door behind me.

I slowly made my way upstairs. As I passed the closed door to Brandon's room, I heard loud noises coming from inside. I stopped for only a moment to confirm, and I could easily make out Ty's voice. He sounded to masculine commanding Brandon and yelling. I grinned and made my way back to my bedroom. Allen and David were already in bed, naked, making out.

"Damn, you guys couldn't even wait for me?" I asked, tearing off my clothes.

"You took too long," Allen said as I climbed up into the bed. I layed down on top of him, pressing my lips to his. I felt David put his arm on top of me, and soon his tounge had made its way into our mouths and the three of us were kissing each other with a passion.

I can't remember how many times we fucked that night. I know that Brandon and Ty must have went at it a few times though, due to the fact that we would hear loud noises and banging coming from the next room and then a short period of silence. This happened a few times during the night. But I was so lost in making love with Allen and David that I didn't pay that much attention to it.

The next morning, Ty and Brandon were laying on the sofa, making out, when I came past the living room. I decided not to disturb them and went into the kitchen. David was there, cooking some breakfast.

"Hey, how do you feel?" He asked, looking up as I came into the room.

"Tired," I said, grinning. "And a little sore."

David smiled. "Well, you were getting a little wild last night mister."

"Really? I don't remember," I said playfully. I took a glass and filled it with some water. "Those two look pretty smug together," I said, nodding my head in the direction of the living room.

David nodded. "Yeah, they were really going at it too last night. And this morning they woke me up."

I chuckled. "And where's Allen?"

"I sent him to the store for me," David said. "I was in the mood for some cinnamon buns."

I shook my head. "You're crazy."

As I sat at the table, sipping my water, the phone rang. David answered and handed the phone to me. "It's for you," He said.

I took the phone from him. "Hello?"

"Hey baby," It was Jason, sounding very groggy.

"Oh, hi," I said, standing and taking the phone with me out of the room. I saw Ty and Brandon still going at it in the living room. I decided to head upstairs to the bedroom.

"I wanted to thank you for inviting Rob and me over last night," Jason said. "I had a great time."

"It was a lot of fun," I said. "We'll have to do it again sometime."

"Well, I wanted to ask you what you are doing tonight," Jason said.

"I really don't know," I said. "Why?"

"I was wondering if you wanted to come out with me to go dancing," Jason said.

I knew that the thought of going out with him was not a good one, but I didn't have any other plans. And as long as I took Allen or David with me, or both of them even, I would be okay.

"I'll talk to the guys and see what they want to do," I said. "I can call you later and let you know."

"I'd really like to spend some time with you," Jason said. "We haven't been able to hang out much lately."

"Yeah, I know," I said. "Things can get kind of busy around here."

"I really hope we can hang out tonight then," Jason said. "It would be good to see you again."

"I'm sure I can work out something," I said. "I'll be sure to let yo know."

"Good," Jason said. "I'm glad to have a friend like you Phillip. You're a really great guy you know that?"

I didn't know what to say. Sometimes Jason's compliments bordered on major flirting, and I didn't know quite how to take it. "Thanks," I finally managed to say. "You're a good guy yourself too. You just need to stay out of trouble."

Jason laughed. "I like trouble. As long as it's the good kind of trouble."

I laughed. "You're bad."

"You make me want to be especially bad," Jason said, his voice getting soft.

"Crazy boy," I said. There was an awkward silence. "Well," I said, hoping to cut the conversation short. "I'm gonna go for now. I'll call you later."

"I can't wait," Jason said.

"All right," I said. "Talk to you later then." I hung up and sat there on the bed. What was with Jason lately? He knew that I was with Allen and David and yet he insisted on letting me know he wanted to be more than friends with me.

But there was something about him that held me back from calling him on it. I didn't want him to stop. As I thought about it, I realized that I enjoyed the way he flirted with me. I wanted to explore it and see where it went. I didn't know if that was wrong, because of my love for Allen and David. I didn't love Jason, and I knew that. But the whole situation was very intreging for me. I decided to just keep it to myself, without letting Allen or David know how Jason was talking to me. While I didn't feel it was anything wrong, I knew that they would likely be upset. But they had nothing to worry about.

Later that night, Brandon and I got ready to head out and meet Jason to go out to a club dancing. Allen and David were both very tired, and David had to work the next morning, so they decided to stay home. I was a little uneasy about going out by myself, even though Brandon had offered to come out with me.

"Are you guys sure you're comfortable with this?" I asked. "I've not been out by myself in a long time."

"Babe, we trust you," David said, patting me on the back.

"Yeah," Allen said. "And you have my little brother to look after you."

"Gee thanks," Brandon said, slipping on a leather jacket of mine that he was borrowing for the night. "Leave me in charge huh?"

"Yes, little brother," Allen said, grinning. "You have to get my baby home safe tonight."

Brandon laughed. "Don't worry boys," He said. "I am not drinking tonight so everything will be fine."

I looked half-nervously at David and Allen and then joined them in a passionate kiss.

"I love you guys," I whispered as out tounges caressed. The shared their love with me and each other.

"Ahem," Brandon playfully cleared his throat. "We have people to go pick up."

"I know," I said. I gave Allen and David one last hug and then followed David outside. As I got in the car I saw them in the door, watching and waving. I waved back, and then Brandon pulled out and we were on our way.

"So," I said, turning to Brandon. "How's things with you and Ty?"

Brandon smiled. "Ty is a great guy. I'm glad you introduced us."

I laughed. "Well, at least you get to have some fun with him."

I noticed Brandon's face turn red. "I'm sure you're quite satisfied with all the fun you get to have with my brother and David."

I nodded. "Yeah, they treat me well."

We got to Jason's house where he lived with his parents and I went up and knocked on the door. Jason answered and gave me a big smile.

"Hey sexy," He said, grinning as he wrapped his arms around me.

I gave him a hug and then a gentle push to let him know to let go of me. "You look nice," I said. Jason was wearing low-rise jeans and a sleeveless white t-shirt that left his stomach exposed. I hadn't really noticed before how toned and muscular he looked. HIs skin was tanned, his hair toussled in the front in a cute sort of way. He looked very good.

"Thanks," He said, smiling. "Are we ready?"

I nodded. He ducked inside and came back a moment later with a brown bag.

"What is that?" I asked, giving him a strange look.

"Just a little something sweet for the ride into the city," Jason said. "Brandon won't mind right?"

I shrugged. "I don't know. You'll have to ask him youself."

"Fine," Jason said, going to the car. He leaned in the passenger window and talked to Brandon. I was standing outside and I couldn't really hear what they were saying. Finally Jason stood up and looked at me with a smile.

"Sit in the back with me," He said, taking my hand. I reluctantly got into the car with him in the back seat.

"You guys be good back there," Brandon said, smiling at me in the rear view mirror.

As we started to move again, Jason brought a bottle of peach schnapps out of the bag and opened it. He took a small swig and passed me the bottle. I shrugged, and then took a swig.

By the time we got to the club, more than half of the bottle was gone. We went in and paid our cover and then we entered into the huge main room. The music was blasting and there were tons of people dancing. I grabbed both Brandon and Jason by the hand and pulled them into the crowd. I wanted to dance.

We were dancing for no more than five minutes when I felt someone grab my arm. I turned around and saw Rob standing there. It was too loud for me to really say anything to him so I gave him a hug and started dancing with him.

After a while I noticed that Brandon and Rob were dancing very close to each other. Jason had been back and forth from the bar, buying drinks for himself and offering some for me to share. He was now standing behind me, dancing with his chest against my back, his arm wrapped around me.

Dancing with Jason was different than being with Allen and David. Allen was not a big fan of the club scene. He prefered private parties and small gatherings. David liked to go to clubs, but it wasn't something he wanted to do all the time. But Jason felt so natural, his body moving along with mine with ease. He felt so warm and close. Maybe it was the drinks, or the pumping bass. But I felt a rush from being this close and dancing with him.

I saw Brandon look over at me, but then Rob was in front of me, and I couldn't see him anymore. I hoped that he wouldn't tell Allen about how Jason was touching me.

Suddenly Jason grabbed my hand and led me away from Brandon and Rob. I started to hold back at first, but he kept pulling on me, so I finally gave in and let him lead me away. We went to the back of the club to a small dark room where there were sofas and chairs and the music was a little softer. He pulled me down with him onto a plush sofa and put his arms around me.

"Jason," I said.

"Ssh," He said, putting his finger over my lips. He then leaned in and kissed my neck. I felt a chill going down my spine, an excitement. But I knew where this could lead.

"I can't," I said, pushing Jason away.

"What's wrong baby?" He asked.

"Jason, this is going to get me in trouble," I said. "I like you a lot, and I like being friends. But this is going too far."

"Oh come on Phil," Jason said. He leaned in to me again. "We're just having a little fun."

I felt my head spinning. I didn't want to feel as though I was cheating on David and Allen but the way Jason was close to me and touching me was turning me on. And the alcahol in my system wasn't helping me think clearly either.

Jason was kissing my neck and running his hand up and down my leg. I felt a hardness growing in my groins, and I knew that if I didn't stop him soon things could get too far.

"Jason," I said. But as he moved his hand up, rubbing it across my jeans and the bulge of my erection there. He moaned and moved to kiss my lips. I pushed him away again. "Please let's just go back out to dance," I said. I stood up and moved out of the room, not looking back to see if Jason was following me or not.

I weaved my way through the crowd and found Rob and Brandon dancing with their arms around each other. I tapped Brandon on the shoulder, and made a motion for him to come with me. He nodded and pointed to Rob that he was gonna go with me. Rob nodded and pointed to the bar, indicating that is where he would be.

Brandon and I went into the bathroom. It wasn't the best place to talk, but it was quiet and I doubted that Jason would come looking for me there.

"What's wrong?" Brandon asked.

"Jason," I said. "He's getting a little too close."

Brandon laughed. "It's ok babe, I won't say anything."

"Thank you," I said, putting my arms around him.

"Why didn't you tell me how amazing Rob is?" Brandon asked as I let go of him.

I smiled. "You and Ty and now you and Rob?" I asked playfully.

"Ty is a good guy," Brandon said. "But with him it was more like just a hook up. Rob and I seem to just click more."

I laughed. "Hey, go for it. He's a really good guy, and he's been hurt a lot in the past, so he deserves someone good like you."

"I don't know how good I am," Brandon said. He put his arm around my waist. "Let's go out and find him and Jason."

Brandon and I did not get back to the house until around 6am. I was still a little buzzed from all the drinks I'd had, so Brandon helped me up into the house and into the living room, where I sat down on the sofa.

"I don't want to go up all those stairs," I said softly. Brandon sat down next to me.

"I'll help you," He said. "You silly."

I smiled. "Thanks for looking out for me."

"You're welcome," He said. "I know you were just having fun. Jason likes to take things too far."

"Isn't that the truth?" I asked, laughing.

"Rob says he gets that from Jason all the time," Brandon said.

"You just had to bring Rob up didn't you?" I said playfully. 'You guys looked like you were having a good time tonight."

Brandon smiled. "Yeah, he is a really sweet guy."

"And what about Ty?" I asked, smiling.

"Ty is a good guy too," Brandon said. "But like I told you earlier, my attraction to Ty is more physical, just a sex thing. With Rob, it's different."

"Well, hey, I'm happy for you," I said. "You won't get any complaints out of me."

Brandon smiled, shaking his head at me. "Come on, we'd better get you up to bed." He took my arm and helped me stand and then we walked up the stairs, very slowly.

He walked me to the door of my room, which was shut. "Thanks again Brandon," I whispered. I have him a hug and a quick kiss on the cheek. Then I opened the door and went into the room.

I saw David and Allen in bed, naked, their bodies wrapped around each other. They looked so peaceful, so content laying there. A small wave of guilt passed over me. If I hadn't gone out, I would have been here with them tonight. I wouldn't have had to deal with the problems with Jason.

"Stop that," I whispered to myself, pulling off my clothes. I slipped into bed and snuggled close to David, who was now in the middle.

David stirred as my body touched his and rolled over to look at me. "Hey babe," He whispered.

"Did I wake you up?" I asked, putting my hand on his chest.

He smiled at me in a sleepy sort of way. "I wasn't sleeping well anyway. I missed you."

"Aww," I said, kissing him softly on the lips. "You need to get some sleep. You have to be up soon anyway to go to work."

David reached up and ran his hand through my hair. "Did you have a good time?"

I nodded. "It was nice."

"I'm glad," David said. He moved closer to me, wrapping his arms around my body and pulling me into him.

All thoughts of Jason or the club faded away as I felt myself being held in David's strong arms. I knew that I loved him, just as I loved Allen. Being with them was special. We had a strong bond, and I knew that. I felt it just being here with them, being held by David.

And then there was Jason. What was my obsession with him? It was like darting around the flames of the fire. It was bright and hot and inviting. But I knew that if I played with it and got too close that I would be burned. And I didn't want to do anything to hurt the love shared between David, Allen and I.

I snuggled in close to David, my head resting against his chest, listening to his heart beat. It was soothing and safe, and soon I fell asleep...
