A Most Exciting Experance: Part 3: Eric's Story

Sin466 on Bisexual Stories



I
don’t fall in love; it wastes too much time and money. Instead I prefer to just fuck around and
have fun. However if I did ever fall in
love, I think I know whom it would be with.
My kid sister has been dating her best friend for almost 3 years
now. They’ve been sleeping together
ever since their first date, and I can hear everything they do from my
room. Usually I just go out for some
fun of my own but sometimes I stay in and listen, not on pulpous I just don’t
have anybody else to do. After a while
I started to feel a little jea

lous of Sarah, she was in love, and I was
beginning to wonder what that felt like.
So for a few months I started thinking, who have I loved, if anybody? I finally realized that out of all the guys
I’ve slept with, I never “loved” any of them.
So than I started thinking Is there anybody that I might love? That’s when I thought of Calvin, I’ve known
him as long as Sarah has, also it was very apparent that Sarah loved fucking
him. She always said he was the most
considerate lover she has ever had; by the way he is only her 3rd.



So
I decided I would seduce him and find out.
I waited until his birthday, if I could love, I could wait a few more
weeks to find out. I knew that he liked
being submissive in bed, and that he liked to have his ass hole played
with. Sarah, Calvin and I had always
been open with each other, and talked about sex a lot. Well I did it, and it worked, Calvin fell in
love with me, I don’t know if I love him too, but my feelings for him are
stronger than they ever were for anybody else.
We kept it a secret form my sister for 6 months. We were going to wait another couple of
months to tell her but she found out on her own.



It
was a Friday, and as usual my parents were gone for the weekend. Sarah told Calvin and me that she was going
to have a sleepover at one of her girlfriend’s house. Calvin and I decided to use this opportunity to have a fuck fest
all night long. We started at 10:00
p.m. and by 1:00 decided to take a small break, only an hour. Than at 2:00 we started back again.



We
where in the living room, as it had the most floor space of any room in the
house. I had just started playing with
Calvin’s dick, getting it hard. I liked
to start by playing with the tip, and then lick it up and down the shaft. He was moaning already, but then I heard him
gasp.



“SARAH?!?!” I looked up and there she was, my kid sister
was standing there with the door wide open.
The funny thing is that she didn’t look surprised, almost like she
expected to see us doing this.



“Look,
sweetie, I can explain…” Calvin started, but Sarah quickly cut him off.



“My,
my, what have we here? You 2 weren't
doing anything you shouldn’t be doing where you?”



“Sarah,
look, its not what you think.” Calvin
was still trying to explain.



“Calvin
be quite. Eric what’s going on?” There was a tone in her voice that sounded
almost like she was just asking because it was expected of her to ask.



She
than told us both to sit on the couch, and had me tell her everything. So I told her how I seduced Calvin, and
forced him not to tell her. I made it
sound like Calvin was completely innocent.
Even said once that he didn’t want to do it, that I was blackmailing
him. The whole time she just sat there
listening to everything. Calvin and I
were still naked, and he was actually trying to hide his body, looking so
ashamed and scared. After I was done,
she asked Calvin if that was true. He
explained how most of it was, but that it was actually his idea to do it the
second time. He explained that he loved
it, and me, also saying, “Sarah, I love you too, with all my heart.” every 3
words or so.



When
we got done she stood up and said, “Well don’t let me stop you.” She smiled and winked and walked over to
Calvin, as she said this. Calvin looked
at her, and she explained, “I’ve known about his for almost 2 months now,
honey, and I love you too, more than anybody.
And Eric I love you, and I’m just so happy that you 2 love each other as
well. And I won’t stand between you 2,
as long as you don’t stand between me and Calvin.” She punctuated her speech by kissing Calvin’s cheek, then walked
back to her chair.



“Never!”
I answered.



“Good,
but I don’t’ want you two to keep this a secret form me anymore ok? And I want to watch you two.” She smiled and Calvin looked so happy. He jumped up and rushed over to her, his
dick still hard, and bouncing with every steep. He kissed her, but she pushed him away. “Not me, sweetheart, him.”
She pointed a finger at me, than sat back down.



Calvin
said simply “Yes ma’am.” And kneeled down in front of me.



“Pretend
I’m not even here.” Sarah told us.



Calvin
leaned in close. Both of his hands on
my neck, pulling me to him. I was
slightly shocked at his forcefulness.
But once his lips touched mine, I forgot all about that. I opened my mouth and extended my tongue and
rubbed his tongue with mine. I bet
Calvin’s lower lip, slightly and then leaned back and gently pushed him
downward.



I
spread my legs, and Calvin took hold of my dick, and started stroking. Than he lowered his head, and opened his
mouth so he could suck me. I placed my
hand on the back of his head, and set the pace for his bobbing. He is just so good at blowjobs; I couldn’t
believe he had never done it until me.
Then I remembered that Sarah had taught him, and looked over. My sister had already removed her pants and
shirt; she was just wearing her bra and panties, a deep red, Calvin’s favorite
color.



“Well
what do you think of your student, sis?”



“He
looks to be doing a fine job.” She giggled.



“You
have no idea.” Then I noticed that her
hand was under her panties, and I laughed inside. Haha, My sister is playing with herself, while her boyfriend
sucks my dick. Haha
.



I
pushed Calvin out of my lap. I laid
down, and told him that we were going to do something new. I told him to get a condom and put it on me.
I knew that he had to walk right up
next to Sarah to get it, and wanted to see what he would do. He walked up and stood next to her for a
second. Then Sarah gave him a ‘come
hither’ look, so Calvin leaned down and kissed her. It didn’t last long, and he was back with the condom. He sat down next to me, and stroked my cock
to get it firm, then rolled the condom on.



“Now
you’re going to do all the work. I want
you to face your girlfriend, and sit on me.
Impale yourself on my dick.” He
just nodded his head and straddled me.
He started down, slowly. I was
using lubricated condoms, but he was still worried about it. He looked cute when he was worried, although
I couldn’t see his face. I saw Sarah’s
though, and her eyes were glued to the point of entry.



Once
the head of my dick was in Calvin’s ass, he just dropped. My dick went in as far as it would go. Then he rose up, and then back down, he
started bouncing. It felt great, even
after 6 months Calvin’s anus was as tight as ever. He started masturbating also.
I saw that Sarah had taken her bra off, and was playing with her
nipples. He obviously liked seeing
Calvin jack-off, cause her nipples were hard and erect.



“You
like this don’t you?”



Sarah
giggled, “Yes, I do. Calvin you look so
sexy with a dick in your ass, and very masculine.” She knew exactly what to say to Calvin.



“Thank
you baby.”



“Okay,
enough of this. Calvin get on all
4s.” I simply pushed him forward, and
his face was inches away form Sarah’s wet panties. I moved behind him and spread his ass cheeks. I thrust my hard cock into his ass hole
again. Each thrust pushed him close to
Sarah’s cunt; he was loving it, and started playing with him self again.



I kept thrusting for another few minutes. And then Calvin called out. “Sarah, I love you, OH GOD I LOVE YOU BOTH,
SARAH…ERIC!!!!” With this Calvin shot
his load all over the floor, and it was the biggest load I’d ever seen him
shoot.



“OH
GOD CALVIN, I LOVE YOU TOO AHHH!!!!!”
and Sarah too came, and sprayed Calvin’s face with her juices.



Than
I came, I didn’t say much just some grunts, and moans. I didn’t want to ruin the moment for
them. I did however pull out and spray
my load on Calvin’s back; he always looked sexy sprayed with cum.



As
the three of us laid there, Calvin crawled up into the chair with Sarah, and
they kissed and held each other.



“Sarah,
I love you, I want to be with you forever.
Will you marry me?”



“Oh,
Calvin, yes, yes I’ll marry you.” I saw
Sarah cry as she said this.



Well
that’s how my sister found out I was fucking her boyfriend. They got married a year later, I was the
best man. I don’t know if I love
Calvin, I know I lust him. And I know I
care about him. I don’t know maybe
that’s as close to love that somebody like me can get. I hope that even though they’re married,
Sarah still lets me “play” with Calvin, but I’ll understand if she says no, but
I don't think she’ll mind too much. I’m
beginning to miss them. Besides there
are plenty of other guys for me to fuck until they get back from their honeymoon.

    Well I suppose the best place to start is with me.  I had just turned 20 not 10 hours earlier (I’m now 24), I am about 5’9” and a bit over weight, with mid-length curly black hair, and I’m not the best-looking guy around, I’m not ugly, just average.  Because of my weight and appearance I was a fairly shy kid, which is why I was always so amazed that I was dating somebody as gorgeous as Sarah.  Sarah, words just don’t do her justice, she’s the most amazingly nice, beautiful, and smart person I’ve ever known, why she loves me has, to this day, confused me.  Sarah had been my best friend sense I was 12, she

is 2 years younger than me, but when I moved into the house right next door to her, she and her brother, Eric who was 3 years older than me, came over to greet me.  We were the only kids in that neighborhood older than 5, so they were the only kids for me to play with.  That was until Eric turned 16, and started driving to see his friends from High School.   I’d always been told that Eric was the hottest guy in town, he had those naturally sexy features, but I’d never seen it because I just wasn’t attracted to guys. 

I never knew that Sarah had a secret crush on me, I just assumed she would tell me so cause we told each other everything.  She was always supportive of me, even going so far as to help me get a date with this girl I had a huge crush on.  When I finally found out that Sarah liked me, I was already a senior in High School, and looking for a date for the Prom.  I asked her and that night we started dating, she was even the first girl I had sex with. 

Well Sarah and Eric’s parents worked for some corporate conglomerate that required they travel a lot, so we got the house to ourselves quite a bit, even though Eric was always there he usually gave us the privacy we wanted.  On my 20th birthday the 3 of us decided to watch some movies, and drink a few beers to celebrate, we stopped around midnight and me and Sarah went up to her room for some time alone, while Eric decided to go out for a bit, see some of his other friends. 

Even before we got to her bedroom I was totally nude with an erection.  I was ready to fuck, and fuck hard, but Sarah had other things in mind.  She wanted to give me a strip tease for my birthday.  She sat me down on her bed and told me not to touch myself, and than started to sing happy birthday, in her best Marilyn Monroe impersonation.  I sat there doing as she told me, never taking my eyes off of her.  After she had finally removed all of her clothes, including the sexiest set of dark red bra and thong panties, she moved towards me and knelt between my legs.  She started kissing, sucking, and stroking my cock, and it was the best feeling I’d ever had.  Sarah always gave the best blowjobs; it was after all, her favorite sexual act.  It didn’t take long for me to succumb to her amazing technique, and I shot off the biggest load one could imagine.  

Sarah just giggled and said, “Is that all you’ve got?” than she gave me the most arousing glance I’d ever seen.

I looked at her and said, “For you baby, I could do this all night.”

She giggled again, and than laid down on the bed and told me that fair is fair.  Knowing what she meant, I buried my face in her wonderful pussy, shaved just liked I loved, with just a little hair, kept trimmed, right above her cunt.  I licked and sucked and rubbed her until she exploded with a violent orgasm.  She jerked her body, and spasumed.  I guess because of the beer, and the orgasm she just fell asleep.  I had hoped to get a chance to stick my again erect penis into her tight ass hole, she had never let me do that before, too afraid it would hurt too much.  I’d never forced her to do anything she didn’t want, though I did ask fairly often always with the same answer, ‘I don’t think so, not now, I’m too scared it’ll hurt.’  Or something else to that effect.

My cock was hard as a rock, eating Sarah’s pussy always made me horny as hell.  I didn’t want to offend her by doing anything with her while she was asleep.  Instead I put my pants back on and walked back downstairs to the living room, planning to watch another movie and hope my hard-on would go away.  I had been watching TV for about an hour in a half, still hard as steel.  At about 4:00 a.m. Eric walked through the front door and saw me sitting on the couch.

Apparently he had seen the budge in my pants too, cause he asked, “What’s wrong?  You and Sarah have a fight?”

“No, she fell asleep after I made her cum, so I thought I’d watch some movies.”

“Aahhh.  Must be really frustrating, huh?”  He walked over and sat down beside me on the couch.

“Oh god yes!!” I answered.

“Sucks I know, Gary got me worked up tonight too, but than decided he needed to go to bed early.  Right after he came too, can you believe that timing?”  I kind of laughed at the sarcasm in his voice.  I knew Eric was Homosexual, in fact other than his other “boyfriends” Sarah and I were the only people that knew.  He was too afraid that his parents would kick him out and disown him to tell them.  We talked a little bit more, about nothing in particular.

Than he said, “So would you like me to do something about that boner in your pants?”  Even though I knew he was gay, I had never thought he would have wanted to have sex with me, but damn was I wrong.

Before I could answer he slid his hands down my pants and grabbed hold of my dick firmly.  I started to protest but before I could say much he leaned in and pushed his tongue into my mouth.  After that I don’t know what got into me, I guess I was just too horny, I put my hand on the back of his head and started French kissing him.  I loved the feeling of his tongue probing my mouth, and his strong hand on my dick.  He started to rub it, so I undid my pants and pushed them down to my ankles.

When he saw what I was doing, he pulled away and said jokingly “My what a big dick you have!” I laughed at this because to be honest I knew it wasn’t that big only about average size. 

But I thanked him and said “Well?  What about you?  How big is yours?”

Eric stood up and quickly removed his shirt, revealing the sexiest 6-pack I’d ever seen.  Than he unbuttoned his jeans and let them drop to his feet.  My eyes were glued to his 8 in. cock, already semi-stiff from playing with me, and what he’d been doing earlier.  I reached around and grabbed hold of his muscular ass; I pulled him toward to me.  I opened my mouth and licked the tip of his cock, than slide my tongue down the shaft.  With one hand I cupped his balls, and with the other, gently pressed against his ass hole.  I’d learned a lot form Sarah’s blowjobs, and Eric had obviously noticed.

“Your very good at this.” followed by a long deep moan.

“I had a very good teacher.” I replied, with a little giggle.  I opened my mouth wide and slid his cock as deep into it as I could, than pulled out.  I continued massaging his balls, and sucking his dick.

After about 10 minutes of sucking, Eric placed his hands on my shoulders, and pushed me away from him, telling me “You keep sucking me like that, and I’ll end up blowing my load in your mouth.”

I smiled up at him, “What’s wrong with that?”  I don’t know what had come over me, I’ve never even thought about sex with another man, but for some reason I just wanted his cum all over my face.

He motioned me to the couch.  Eric than sat me down on the couch and pulled my legs up so that I was positioned more on my back with my butt hanging off.  He began to lick my balls and moved a little lower to my anus.  And the pleasure I felt was monumental.  Sarah had on occasion played with my ass hole while blowing me, but this was fantastic.  My first rim job, and I was loving every second of it.

After what seemed like hours of pleasure, Eric just stopped and walked over to get his pants, he removed a small packet as well as a little bottle.  I didn’t realize what he was planning until he already had the condom on his cock, and started rubbing the lubricant from the bottle on his cock.  I began to sit up and protest his course of action, but was quickly forced back down on the couch.  Eric grabbed my ankles and spread my legs as far apart as he dared, without hurting me.  He than let go of one ankle and grabbed his cock, guiding it into position. 

“Wait, I’m not ready…” I began but before I was finished, the head of his dick was already in my ass.

“Just relax, I promise you’ll love this.”  I took his advice and relaxed, hoping he was right. 

God was he right; I couldn’t believe how good it felt to have an 8 in. cock sliding in and out of my ass.  Eric was gentle too, he didn’t force it in, he was gentle.  I looked into his eyes, and I saw the same thing I see in Sarah’s eyes, love and caring.  I fell in love with him for that.

Eric than grabbed my cock and resumed what he had been doing earlier.  He than leaned in and kissed me.  I closed my eyes and moaned.

My god I’m being fucked like a girl!!!  This was all I could think of, and I love it!!!

We went on like this for half an hour, kissing, him stroking my dick, his cock ramming into my ass.  Than he got harder, started to ram deeper, I screamed with pleasure.

“OH, GOD CALVIN I’M CUMING!!! I’M GONNA CUM!!!” 

“I want you in my mouth, cum on my face!!!”

He quickly pulled his dick out of my ass, and removed the condom.  I slid down between his legs and grabbed hold of his dick, as well as my own and started stroking as hard as I could.  I heard Eric groan, and felt his cock quiver as it unleashed ‘gallons’ of his cum on my face and chest.  Feeling his warm cum spray me, I exploded and came all over the floor.

Eric fell down in front of me and started licking his cum off of my face, “You can’t go back upstairs like that, now can you?”

I smiled at him and replied “No I don’t guess I can’t.”

After I was all cleaned up, Eric told me to go on to bed.  I started up stairs, but before I left the room I turned around and looked at Eric, already lying down, exhausted.  “That was fantastic, maybe we can do it again sometime.”

“Hehe, I hope so” he smiled.

I left the room, and started up the stairs that led to Sarah’s room, and whispered, “I love you.”

Eric and I did do it again, but I never left Sarah.  After about 6 months Sarah walked in on us, and it turned out she was fine with it.  She was very understanding about the matter.  The night she found out, I also proposed, and she said yes instantly.  We were married a year later and ended up buying the same house Sarah grew up in form her parents.  We now enjoy our new life together, and as a wedding present she finally allowed me that one act she had denied me for so long, ANAL, and it was great for both of us.  Eric still visits about once a month, and Sarah allows us to “play” as long as she gets to watch.  They both know how I feel for the other, and I’m enjoying the greatest sex life anybody can possibly know.  I’m in love with 2 wonderful people, and I’m still a little confused as to why such beautiful people would love me so much, but I try not to dwell on that.  To this day Sarah and Eric are the only people I’ve ever had sex with, and I don’t care if there are any others, I’m in love with them and that’s all I need.

A Most Exciting Experance: Part 2: Sarah's Story

Sin466 on Bisexual Stories

I finally found out why Calvin has been acting weird.  It turns out that he has been cheating on me.  But I’m not upset with him like I thought I would be.  Well I guess I should start at the beginning.

It was late last night, and my parents where gone for the entire week, so Calvin was staying with me for a few days.  Around midnight I woke up and had to go to the bathroom.  I noticed that Calvin wasn’t in bed with me.  I just figured he was in the kitchen getting himself a snack. 

Read More
After I got done in the bathroom, I went looking for him, but he wasn’t in the kitchen or the living room.  So I went back upstairs thinking he was probably back in my bedroom.  Before I got to my room, I saw that Eric’s door was slightly open, and his light was on.  I don’t know why I was so curious, but I started walking towards his room.  As I got closer I heard somebody moaning, and figured Eric had brought one of his boyfriends home for some fun.  I got to his door, and was just going to close it for him, but I took a peek, I’m not sure why.  And that’s when I saw Eric sitting in his chair, with somebody else’s head in his lap.  Eric was moaning louder than ever.

“God Calvin you give the best head!”  Calvin?  Oh My God!!!  I couldn’t believe it; Eric found himself a boyfriend named the same as mine, and I couldn’t help but giggle.

But than, this Calvin raised his head and thanked Eric, and than I realized the truth Eric hadn’t found another guy named Calvin, he was getting a blowjob from MY boyfriend.  I was so angry.  I couldn’t believe it the man I loved was gay!?!?!?  I was about to knock that door down, but than I heard Eric say, “I guess Sarah’s great, if you learned from her.”

“God yes, she’s the best.”  And I heard a tone in his voice; love.  What was going on?  Was Calvin Bi?  I decided to wait and watch for a little bit longer.

Calvin was on his knees between Eric’s legs, and he was stroking both his and Eric’s penises.  Calvin than lowered his head again and returned sucking Eric. I couldn’t see much, but I noticed that Calvin was tickling Eric’s balls with his fingers.  I felt a little proud, knowing that everything Calvin knew about blowjobs, he learned form me.  Than Eric pushed Calvin off his dick and told him to get on the bed.  Calvin did so, and got on his hands and knees, and raised his butt in the air and even wiggled it a little.  Eric laughed at this, “Well don’t you look sexy, hehe”

“Is this ok? Or would you rather I get another position?”  Eric made an attempt to look like he was hard in thought.

“No.  I think that will work just fine.”  He finally said, with a fake tone of seriousness.  Both of them laughed at this, than Eric moved closer, and picked up a condom from his nightstand.  He threw the condom down on the bed next to Calvin’s right knee.  Than Eric leaned down and pulled my boyfriend’s ass cheeks apart, and started to lick his anus.  As soon as Eric’s tongue touched Calvin’s hole, Calvin let out a low and loud moan of pleasure.  I’ve played with Calvin’s ass hole before, and I know he liked it, but I never even thought about licking it.

I couldn’t take my eyes off of them, and all of a sudden I couldn’t believe it, I was getting wet.  Watching my brother and my boyfriend playing with each other like this was getting me horny.  Than I realized my hand was already down my panties rubbing my clit, I don’t remember moving my hand, but there it was.  When I looked back, I saw that Eric had stopped licking, and had moved around the bed in front of Calvin. 

Eric handed my boyfriend the condom and said, “Here, put this on me.”

Calvin grinned and opened the condom, and carefully placed it in his mouth.  He grabbed hold of Eric’s cock, and slowly put the condom on with his mouth.  I remember that twinge of pride, knowing that I’d taught Calvin everything he knew about sucking dick.  I slipped my hand up under my nightshirt, and started playing with my tits, making myself wetter and wetter. 

Eric than moved back behind Calvin, and smacked Calvin’s ass just for fun.  I already knew what was going to happen.  Eric inched his dick closer and closer to Calvin’s rectum.  My eyes where glued at my boyfriends ass.  As soon as Eric’s big hard cock went into Calvin’s tight ass hole, I also inserted my middle finger into my quivering pussy.  This was the sexiest thing I’d ever seen. 

Eric started thrusting, pumping his cock as deep as he could, and I watched intently.  Thrusting my finger with the exact same rhythm as Eric had.  This went on for half an hour.  Than I noticed Calvin’s dick, it was hard, and the tip was a deep red, it looked a little lonely and forgotten.  God I remembered how good it felt to have Calvin’s hard dick in my tight pussy, and with that memory I had a small orgasm.  Than I saw Eric reach around with his right hand and grab Calvin’s cock.  Eric started stroking with the same rhythm as he and I were thrusting.  Again I had a small orgasm.  I realized how much I loved Calvin, and how sexy, and masculine he looked getting it from behind.  Another orgasm.

This went on for 10 minutes, watching Eric and Calvin, remembering how much I loved Calvin and remembering all the wonderful things he had done to and with me.  Each orgasm I had was stronger than the last.  I was snapped out of my memories with a grunt, and a moan.  Eric started thrusting, and stroking faster and faster.  I moved my finger faster to keep pace. 

“OH GOD!! OH MY GOD!!! SARAH!!!”  Calvin cried out, as he came and sprayed Eric’s sheets with his cum.  I remember thinking he said my name!!!

Hearing my name I had the most explosive orgasm I’ve ever had while masturbating, my panties got completely soaked.

Than Eric grunted and thrust his cock as deep as he could into Calvin’s ass.  I saw him jerk and knew he was coming too.  All 3 of us came at the same time.  Than Calvin and Eric both fell to the bed.  Eric laying on Calvin’s back, and Calvin laying in his own cum.

“Why do you call Sarah’s name when you’re with me?  I thought you loved me?”  Eric asked, sounding a little worried.

“I’m sorry Eric, its just…well…I love you.  I really do.  And I love feeling your cock in my ass.  It’s just that I also love Sarah, and I call her name because, well, I love her so much.  I really wish I could tell her about us.  I don’t like hiding things from her.”

“I know you don’t, but she’ll kill me if she found out I seduced you like his.”  Eric laughed a little when he said this.  Calvin turned over, still under Eric.

“No she won’t, Sarah’s a very open minded girl.  She didn’t even yell, or anything when you told her you where gay, remember.  She loves you, and I think she would understand.”  To punctuate this, Calvin kissed Eric deeply on the lips.

“Yea I guess your right.  We’ll talk about this some more another time, you really should get back to bed, Sarah might wake up and wonder where you are.”  I didn’t stay to hear the rest of that conversation.  After hearing my name, I ran back to my room and jumped into bed.  Calvin walked in about 5 minutes later, and crawled into bed with me.  I pretended that he woke me up, “where did you go?”

“Um... I went to grab a snack.  Now go back to bed, ok.”   I could feel his warm cum still on his stomach.  As Calvin spooned me, and slid his hand down my panties, as he likes to do while we sleep, I wondered if he realized that my panties where wet.  I think so because his cock started getting hard against my ass.  But that’s another story.

That was how I found out my boyfriend was sleeping with my brother.  My boyfriend was cheating on me, and I’m not even mad.  I love Calvin, and I love my brother, and I think I love the fact that they love each other as much as they do.  I think maybe I’ll surprise him sometime.  Maybe sneak in on those two, while they’re “playing.”  I hope they don’t mind.
