The four of us met for drinks one evening in early June, just before Liam's thirtieth birthday. Sitting across from him, I noticed he was smiling as he took a sip of the Sex on the Beach he'd ordered. "You look awfully cheerful for someone about to turn thirty," I teased.
Liam's smile widened. "Hey, it's a milestone, Cole. And I'm not going to sulk like you did on your thirtieth."
"Ouch!" I pretended to be hurt, but Liam was right; I had indeed spent my thirtieth birthday, which took place just a few months earlier, bemoaning my lost youth while getting shitfaced. Liam had witnessed that mini-crisis on my part, as had Vince and Peter, who were at the bar with us tonight.
Vince leaned toward Liam, his eyebrows raised. "So how do you want to celebrate your big day?"
Peter, Vince's partner, took a swig of his beer, then gave Liam a playful grin. "Yes, do tell! I'd love to hear how our social butterfly wants to spend his birthday."
"Oh, no big party for me this year," Liam said. "I was actually hoping just the four of us could get together."
Looking at the men sitting with me at the table, I was a little surprised at what good friends we'd all become, especially since we were so different. Well, Vince and I had plenty in common. We worked at the same company but in different departments. At thirty-two, he was somewhat stocky and had chestnut brown hair, along with a short beard. With ample body hair as well, he'd probably be considered a bear. Vince was also one of the kindest people I'd ever met; he strove to avoid conflict at all costs, and he was good-natured to a fault. I wasn't sure if I'd ever be ready to settle down into coupledom, but the truth was, if I met someone as sweet and supportive as Vince, I'd be tempted.
When Vince and I first met, he was already in a serious relationship with Peter, whom I quickly became friends with as well. Peter was thirty-eight and currently working his way up the corporate ladder at a prestigious company. I figured he would be CEO one day. He was tall and fit, with deep blue eyes and dark hair that was beginning to gray, so Vince, Liam, and I had taken to calling him a silver fox. And there was no denying the man was gorgeous. While he and Vince were deeply in love, living together in a beautiful house in the suburbs, they considered themselves ethically non-monogamous. I knew they occasionally slept with other men, and often invited a third man, or even a fourth, into their bed. Sometimes I fantasized about being asked to join them, and while the thought of that excited me, I figured it might be best to keep things strictly platonic.
I'd met Liam when we lived in the same apartment building. Though I'd since moved into a loft apartment right in the center of town, Liam and I had remained close friends, and when I'd introduced him to Vince and Peter, they were charmed by him as well. Liam was the definition of a free spirit, working at a job until he got tired of it and wanted to try something new. With his lean build, beautiful dark curls, and large blue eyes, he attracted plenty of attention from Daddy types. He got laid much more often than I did. I was average in height and build, with light brown hair and hazel eyes. While I was good-looking enough to have a fair amount of sexual partners, I wasn't so gorgeous that I could have anyone I wanted.
Peter spoke up, drawing me from my thoughts. "Vince and I will be happy to hold a little party for you at our place, Liam. And we'll monitor Cole's booze intake so he doesn't pass out on the couch this time."
I shot Peter a dirty look. "Jesus, I got drunk once, and on my own birthday, and I've never heard the end of it!"
"You are so fucking cute when you're outraged," Peter said, then planted a kiss on my cheek.
Vince watched the two of us, his brown eyes full of warmth. Then he turned to Liam. "I'll make a special cake for your birthday. What else would you like for your party?"
I could tell Liam was trying to hide a smile; his lips quivered a bit from the effort. "Um, I really want to celebrate my thirtieth with a bang," he began. As Vince, Peter, and I waited for him to continue, he flashed a huge grin before adding, "A gang bang, to be specific."
Vince's mouth dropped open, and I figured I looked just as shocked. "Wait, are you saying you want us three to..." I didn't finish the question out of fear I'd misunderstood.
"I want you three to take turns fucking me, yes," Liam replied. "It's always been a fantasy of mine, but I wouldn't trust a group of strangers to fulfill it for me."
No one spoke for several seconds. Glancing at Vince and Peter to gauge their reactions, I found that Vince still appeared incredulous. While Peter's expression was harder to read, I could tell he was receptive to Liam's request. I struggled to keep my own expression neutral, but my cock's response was more difficult to control. The thought of watching Peter and Vince fuck Liam, and getting a turn as well, had me growing hard.
Liam misinterpreted our silence as lack of interest. "Of course, I totally understand if any of you would prefer not to," he said. "I just figured it's now or never."
"It sounds like fun," I quickly spoke up. "So count me in." Liam beamed at me, and I sensed him relax a bit. It must have required a good deal of courage for him to ask this of us, I realized. The two of us looked over at Vince and Peter, who in turn were looking at each other. An unspoken conversation seemed to take place between them before Vince gave the slightest nod.
Peter nodded as well, then focused his gaze on Liam once more. "Vince and I would definitely like to take part in your celebration, but I think we should all talk about expectations and boundaries beforehand."
Relief swept over me as I listened to Peter. It was clear he and Vince had done something like this before, whereas I hadn't, and I was happy for Peter to take charge and establish guidelines for the four of us. Liam was apparently pleased as well, for he wasted no time letting us know what he had in mind. "How comfortable are you three with fucking me bare?" he asked.
Our discussion made my skin flush and my dick harden even more. I took several deep breaths in an attempt to subdue my arousal, but Vince must have noticed me getting hot. Instead of teasing me, however, he only smiled. Maybe he was getting turned on, too.
Once the four of us confirmed we were all taking PrEP, we agreed we could forgo the condoms. "Are you interested in any kind of roleplay at all?" Peter asked Liam.
I was surprised to see Liam duck his head. Was he actually blushing? He refused to look at us as he responded to Peter. "I, um, get really excited from pretending I'm being forced a little. Like I'm reluctant and being coerced, you know? And I love being degraded a bit. Being lightly slapped in the face and getting called names makes me so fucking hard."
I exchanged glances with Vince and Peter. For the first time, Vince appeared uneasy. "I'm not really comfortable with being aggressive like that."
"I understand," Liam quickly said, his expression growing serious. "And I know you're primarily a bottom, but would you be willing to fuck me?"
The smile returned to Vince's face. "Seeing as how it's your birthday and all, I'd definitely be willing to fuck you, Liam."
"Awesome!" Liam gave Vince a look that managed to be both pleading and seductive. "And maybe you'd be willing to hold me down while Peter and Cole are being aggressive? Or is that a hard limit for you, too?"
Vince thought a moment, and again he and Peter silently consulted with each other. "I can do that," Vince finally said. "But if we're going to be playing rough, then you need to give us a safe word. If you ever say it, we immediately stop what we're doing and check in with you, okay?"
Liam nodded. "Let's see, a safe word... Would 'daisy' work?"
"It would work fine," Peter said with a grin. "But why did you choose it?"
Liam shrugged. "It was the first thing that came to mind." He leaned closer to Peter, his smile devious. "Can I call you Daddy during the gang bang?"
My eyes widened, and both Vince and I grew still, waiting for Peter's answer. For his part, Peter took it all in stride, merely raising an eyebrow and telling Liam, "If you do, I'll just pound your ass that much harder."
That made Liam release a lust-filled moan. "I'm definitely calling you Daddy, then."
Liam's birthday was two days away, and it conveniently fell on a Friday. It was decided that Liam and I would arrive at Vince and Peter's house at seven that evening. "Oh my God, I can't wait!" Liam said, practically bouncing in his chair. "I'm not working that day, so I'll have plenty of time to prepare for the three of you." His stare met mine, and I couldn't help but smile. His excitement was contagious, and when he placed a hand on my thigh under the table, I sighed with pleasure at his touch. "I'm so fucking turned on thinking about how you'll feel inside me, Cole," he murmured.
"Move your hand up a few inches and you'll find out how turned on I am, too," I said quietly.
"Behave, you two," Peter admonished us. "There will be plenty of time for that on Friday."
Liam looked at him, his blue eyes wide and innocent. Then he grinned and said, "Yes, Daddy."
*****
As I drove to Vince and Peter's house Friday evening, I felt nervous, far more nervous than I would have been before a random hookup. These were my closest friends, after all, and I was anxious for everything to go well. I'd been distracted at work all day, and I ended up falling a little behind, so I stayed late, leaving myself only enough time to rush home, freshen up, and change into a polo shirt and chinos.
Competing with my nervousness was unbridled horniness. Just the thought of being naked with Vince, Peter, and Liam was enough to get me aroused. I kept fantasizing about watching Peter and Vince fuck Liam, and of course I vividly imagined how it would feel to bury my cock inside his ass as well. While it was a fantasy I'd jerked off to in the past, I couldn't believe it was about to become reality.
A few minutes later, I stood on the front porch of my friends' house. Peter let me in, and I allowed myself a long, appreciative look at him. He was still dressed for the office, but he'd shed his suit coat and tie, and the top buttons of his shirt were undone. "Hey, handsome," he greeted me with a smile. He was apparently in the mood to flirt, too. I returned his smile but had to look away as I stepped past him into the spacious living room. I was almost certain Vince wouldn't mind Peter and me being playful, but I felt he should be present for it.
"Looking forward to tonight?" I asked Peter.
"I've been fighting back a hard-on all day!"
I couldn't help but laugh, for I was just as excited. "You, too, huh?"
When I gave him the bottle of wine I'd brought, a Malbec I knew he and Vince enjoyed, his eyes lit up. "Ah, you know what I love!"
I'd also carried in my gift for Liam, a framed print by one of his favorite contemporary artists. Peter led me into the kitchen, where Vince was darting around, still dressed in business casual. "He's been like this since he got home," Peter told me. "He wants everything to be perfect."
"Of course I do," Vince said. "Liam will only turn thirty once." As he strode past us to retrieve some wineglasses from the cabinet, I couldn't resist pulling him close so I could kiss his cheek.
"You're such a sweetheart," I whispered. Vince grinned and wrapped his strong arms around me for a hug.
By the time Liam arrived, Vince was satisfied with all the arrangements. He'd decorated the kitchen with balloons and streamers, along with a huge HAPPY BIRTHDAY banner. As soon as he saw Liam, he exclaimed, "There's the birthday boy!"
Liam beamed, his eyes widening as he looked around. "This is so freaking wonderful! You didn't have to go to all this trouble, Vince!"
"He had a blast doing it," Peter said to Liam while pouring a glass of Malbec for each of us. Liam went to hug Vince, and my gaze moved over him. Wearing a hot pink tank top and skinny jeans, he already looked so fuckable. I couldn't wait to see him naked.
"Thanks so much for agreeing to make my birthday wish come true tonight," Liam told us as we sipped our wine. "It's all I've been able to think about!"
"Presents first!" Vince said.
Liam excitedly tore the wrapping paper from the gift I'd brought, and he gasped when he saw the print. "Oh my God, Cole, it's beautiful! Thank you!"
Now it was my turn for a hug, and as I held him close, I lowered my lips to his hair. "I'm glad you like it."
"I love it! I'm really touched that you remembered my favorite artist." Liam planted a kiss at the corner of my mouth, which only made me want more.
For Liam's birthday, Vince and Peter had paid for him to spend a weekend at a luxury resort a couple of hours away. Liam had always wanted to go but couldn't afford it. Now he was beyond thrilled, throwing his arms around Vince and Peter. He reached for me as well, pulling me into the hug. "You three are the absolute best!" he said. "Thank you for everything."
"And there's cake, too," Vince said. "I made it myself." He led us into the dining room, where he'd placed a beautiful cake on the table, but instead of decorating it with candles, he'd used penis-shaped cake toppers.
Liam let out a peal of laughter. "I fucking love it!" He immediately started snapping photos of the cake.
"You really outdid yourself with that masterpiece," I told Vince, who grinned at my praise.
"As delicious as this cake looks," Liam said, "I think I'll wait to have a slice until after you three have finished railing me."
Those words charged the energy in the room, giving it a sexual tension that was almost palpable. Peter even dared to start stroking himself through his pants. I swallowed back a moan as I watched, my own dick hardening.
Liam noticed as well. He gave us a sly smile, then said, "Seeing as how it's my big day, no one would object to me stripping down to my birthday suit now, would they?"
"Of course not," Vince hurriedly replied. His voice was husky, betraying his own excitement.
We watched as Liam began undressing. My stare moved hungrily over his smooth, bare chest and dark pink nipples. When he set about taking off his jeans as well, he made a point to turn his back to us so we could see he was wearing a black thong.
"Fuck, that ass of yours is perfect!" I said. Now I was stroking, too, my cock almost fully hard. Glancing at Vince, I saw the lust in his eyes, and I could detect the outline of his erection through his pants.
When Liam started to remove the thong, Peter spoke up. "Leave that on a bit longer." Liam slowly turned, his hard cock straining against the thong's thin fabric. "It looks like we're all ready," Peter went on, giving me and Vince a grin. Then he turned to Liam again. "Once we're in that room, it's on, okay?" he asked, and Liam quickly nodded.
Peter and Vince led me and Liam up the stairs. I allowed Liam to go before me, and the sight of his firm, shapely ass was almost more temptation than I could bear. When he thrust his bottom in my direction, I knew he realized the effect he was having on me. "Tease me now, and you'll pay for it later, sweetheart," I murmured, which only made him giggle.
The master bedroom had a king-sized bed, perfect for our plans. Of course, I'd seen the room before, but I never failed to admire the décor. I didn't have much time to do that tonight, however. As soon as we stepped inside, Vince moved to pull back the covers, revealing sheets which had what I guessed was an extravagantly high thread count. Then Peter grabbed Liam's arm, making the younger man release a startled gasp. I watched, wide-eyed, as Peter roughly yanked down Liam's thong, and Liam whimpered as his erect cock sprang into view. Fixing my stare on his dick, I found he was about six inches long, with a sexy mushroom tip. He was completely bare, with no pubes at all. His balls were on the smaller side, and I knew it would be a lot of fun to take both of them in my mouth.
"What a sexy little slut you are," Peter said, ogling Liam's naked body. "Lie down on the bed."
Liam hurried to obey, climbing on the bed and then lying on his back, his chest rising and falling with fast breaths. While Vince hadn't spoken or moved to touch Liam, his hot stare made it clear he found the man lying before him irresistible.
Peter looked from Vince to me. "Ready to show the birthday boy who's in control here?"
"Fuck, yes!" I breathed.
The three of us began undressing, carelessly tossing clothes aside as we revealed more and more bare skin. With his muscular upper body, Peter was just as sexy as I'd always imagined him to be. But when he removed his pants and boxer briefs, my eyes widened at the sight of his dick. It had to be eight inches long! It was veiny and had a nice girth, too. Even his balls were substantial. I definitely wouldn't be able to fit both of them in my mouth at once, I thought. His pubes were closely trimmed like mine.
I was just shy of seven inches and not as thick, but Liam was looking from my cock to Peter's, and then back again like he was desperate for both. Vince was the last to get completely naked. I loved his broad shoulders, and his body hair; his chest, arms and legs were covered with it. He obviously did some manscaping, but not as much as Peter and I. He was around six inches long, like Liam, and the only one of us who was uncut. His foreskin was pulled back, revealing a deep pink cockhead I would have loved to lick.
Before I could give in to that desire, Peter advanced on Liam. Vince and I quickly followed so that the three of us surrounded Liam on the bed. As he gazed up at us, I couldn't tell if he was genuinely nervous or simply immersing himself in his role of reluctant fucktoy. Maybe both.
"Spread your legs," Peter demanded.
Planting his palms against the backs of his thighs, Liam lifted his legs and spread himself wide. We could clearly see the plug he'd inserted; it was light blue with a sparkly jewel set in the base. The sight of it made Vince begin jerking his cock. Peter grazed his fingertips over the plug's base. "So ready to be a dirty whore for us," he whispered. Liam moaned as his cock pulsed fiercely at Peter's words.
Peter looked up at Vince, flashing a sexy smile. "You know what I want to do to him, baby?"
"Oh, I think I do," Vince said.
I moved to kneel beside Liam's left shoulder while Peter and Vince forced his legs back down on the bed. As they took their places on either side of Liam, I noticed his cock was standing at attention, the head sporting a large bead of precum. Peter and Vince leaned forward and began licking Liam from base to tip, their tongues often meeting.
"That's so fucking hot!" I stroked my cock a little faster while I enjoyed the show.
Liam propped himself up on his elbows. He was almost panting as he gazed down at the two men. "Oh my God!" he cried. Vince and Peter kissed and licked Liam's tip, their tongues gliding over it. Their passion for each other, and for Liam's cock, had my own dick throbbing. "Ah, that feels so good!" Liam said. Vince eagerly lapped up more precum, seeming to delight in the taste.
I heard Liam whisper my name, and when I met his stare, he looked down at my erection, then smiled and opened his mouth. I positioned myself to give him my cock, and he immediately wrapped his lips around it, licking and sucking with an enthusiasm that made me groan. Remembering he loved dirty talk, I pumped my hips and said, "Yes, take it like a good cocksucker!" I began trembling when my tip invaded his throat, and soon I was thrusting between his lips. He took it like a pro, pulling off only when he needed to draw in a breath.
Vince and Peter were still kissing and licking his cock, focused on each other as much as Liam. "Suck my cock!" Liam begged them. "Take it in your mouth, please!"
Hearing Liam's pleas, Peter suddenly sat up and leaned forward to give him a slap in the face. There wasn't a lot of force behind it, but I knew it still stung. Peter's expression was so fierce that Liam actually whimpered. "You're here for our pleasure," Peter growled, "not the other way around. Do you understand me, slut?"
