Summer Entanglement (bxb)

Chapter 6

The Titanic museum was interesting. We got to learn a lot more about it than you would from the movie, which is like a 'Duh'. In the beginning we got a passenger card that stated facts about them on the Titanic and at the end we got to see if our passenger survived or not. A couple of ours did but Jace and Sebastian's did not and they got quite emotional over it, especially when Jace remembered that there were dogs on the ship as well. Full blown sobbing. It's adorable how in tune they are with their emotions. Most men don't show their emotions because they grew up thinking they would look like p*****s.

Currently, we are checking into getting our cabins that we will be staying in for the next three days. I informed all of them besides Tanner that I wanted to get a separate cabin for him and I. They got a cabin with four bedrooms since they didn't want to force Matt and Ryder to be bedmates the whole trip. Plus, that'd be hard on both of them I'd assume. It's like dangling a piece of meat in front of a dog. Our cabins weren't far from each other so we took a little tour of the big one they were all going to share before Tanner and I went to ours. We checked out the pool and hot tub that everyone in the cabins could use together. There were a couple people and some children already in the pool. 

Their cabin was pretty big and homey feeling. Each bedroom had the same decor and same king sized beds but with different blankets. There was a kitchen area next to the sitting area that had a fireplace and tv over the mantle. There was even a pool table! Out on the deck there was a hot tub and a couple chairs and rocking chairs. There was also a beautiful view of the mountains. Next was venturing to our cabin.

It's a cozy little honeymoon cabin. The others cooed at we opened the door to our little getaway house. It was like a studio apartment. The king bed was on one side of the little house with the two person jacuzzi nearby. The other side held a small kitchen, dining area and sitting area. There was also a bathroom with a shower. Out the back patio was also a private hot tub with two rocking chairs. 

"Awww, now I wish we would've got a cute little cabin like this, it's so romantic" Jace commented. 

"Maybe when we go on another road trip love" Sebastian hugged Jace from behind and rested his chin on his shoulder. 

"There's this hotel that you can rent a room that has a private waterfall pool, sauna and hot tub" Dakota commented. 

"Oh yeah, I heard about that. There's a couple locations in Wisconsin, Illinois and I think Indiana" Matt said thoughtfully. 

"Already on the list for our next trip" Damon said tapping on his phone.

"Same" Tanner said quietly and I looked over at him, giving him a wink. He gave a sly grin.

"What's on the agenda before it gets too late?" Ryder asked.

"They have the tree top walk we could do then food?" Sebastian offered and we all nodded in agreement before heading out of the cabin and making our way to the treetop walk thing. 

The bridges between the trees were lit up by lights on one side of the bridges roped sides. It gave off a beautiful and romantic vibe. 

"Why does it seem like we always do s**t that includes heights" Jace said as we stepped on to the wooden bridge. 

"Cause you only live once Jacey baby" Dakota sang as he wrapped an arm around his shoulders leading them first on to the trail. Damon and Sebastian followed closely behind them. I made a point to have Tanner walk with Ryder while I walked with Matt. I know Jace said he'd talk to him but I feel like I could be another ear for him.

"What's up Matt?" I said as I saddled up next to him, walking on to the bridge after waiting for Tanner and Ryder to go a little ways before going on ourselves.

"Not much Charlie" he chuckled. 

"Sooooo...has Jace talked to you yet?" I asked while eyeing the rest of our group ahead of us. There were points at some trees that had a flat platform that was formed around the tree before it continued to the connecting bridges. 

"No?" he questioned while looking at me.

"Oh" I replied.

"Why?" 

"Well we were talking and we-well he wanted to talk to you about your situation" I said hesitantly. I don't know him well and I don't want him to get mad at me for suggesting he talk about his problems to me.

"What about it?" he replied smoothly.

"Like where you're standing...your thoughts....Ryder....stuff like that" I shrugged. 

"You don't have to share with me if you're not comfortable. I just thought maybe an 'outsiders' ear would be helpful" I said after a minute or two of silence from him.

"No, it's fine. I was just thinking" he sighed while his eyes glanced ahead of us. "I...don't know what to do" he admitted.

"In terms of?"

"Everything" he muttered softly "You know, I was completely comfortable with my "straight" sexuality that I bought Jace and I matching panties" he stressed out while my eyes widened in surprise before taking in his body.

"Stop that" he said sternly, making my eyes snap back to his face. 

"Sorry" I said sheepishly.

"Then Ryder came along with his confident and flirtatious self and suddenly I have a crush on a guy" he whispered.

"Is that so bad?" I asked.

"Yes" he yelled making our group look back at us. I waved them away with a hand and they continued moving along. 

"Amber, whom is my girlfriend, is pregnant. How can I have feelings for someone else when I'm already with someone?" he said with a somber tone "I feel like I've been cheating on her with my feelings because the more I hang out with Ryder the more my feelings grow for him"

"Obviously, I mean you did go in to kiss him" 

He groaned "Don't remind me of my embarrassing acts, but that's what I mean.." he trailed off

"Do you love her?" 

"I..." he started but then stopped.

"How long have you been together?" 

"A few months now"

"Do you feel anywhere close to loving her?" I asked cautiously.

"No..." he admitted "Well I love her but I'm not in love with her like, I don't feel the 'I love you' stage. I was actually going to talk to her about a break after the trip so I could figure things out"

"Maybe you still should" I said with a shrug and he looked at me like I had three heads.

"Yeah cause getting her pregnant then saying 'hey can we have a break? I need to figure some things out' would sound like such a great idea" he said sarcastically.

"Hey, just cause she's pregnant doesn't mean you have to live your life unhappily. Yes, she is carrying your child but you deserve to be happy too, and if that means talking to her like an adult about your feelings, then do it" I encouraged "If Jace says she's a sweetheart, I'm sure she would understand. However, you don't know until you talk to her" 

"Maybe" he said uncertainly

"The fact that you have feelings for a guy isn't holding you back is it?"

"No, heavens no. Truthfully never thought I'd wind up in the community other than being an Ally but life throws curveballs, doesn't it?" he chuckled. Well at least, he's not freaking out about liking a male.

"I'm not trying to push you or anything, but I do see the way Ryder looks at you and how you look at him" I said and he started to blush "It's pretty adorable if you ask me....Don't let a chance at love fade away because you got a girl pregnant and feel obligated to stay with her" 

"You're right" he said "I'll talk to her when we get back because I know that, that conversation is not a phone conversation" 

"No it is not" I laughed 

"Ryder is a looker though" I whispered and winked at him

"Shut up" he laughed and playfully shoved my shoulder. "Thank you for talking with me"

"Anytime, I'm happy we are all becoming great friends" I smiled at him as we caught up with the rest of the group at one of the platforms. 

"Slow pokes" Jace joked and we ended up switching walking buddies. I could tell Jace was curious on what Matt and I talked about so he went with him, Tanner walked with me, Ryder with Sebastian , leaving Dakota and Damon together. The whole walking adventure lasted about two hours in total. the rest of the way Tanner and I would sneak glances at each other and smile like little school girls. The sun was setting across the horizon as we finished up our trail.  

"So beautiful" I said as I observed the array of colors in the sky.

"Yeah you are" Tanner whispered in my ear, making me shiver with a big smile on my face.

"Corny" I retorted, leaning back and nudging a shoulder into him. 

"You love it"

"I love you"

"Now, who is the corny one?" he said and we both laughed.

"What's everyone craving?" Damon asked as we got into a circle.

"I'm up for anything" I told him

"Same" was echoed by Tanner, Dakota and Jace.

"I'll look up places quick" Sebastian mentioned while he tapped away on his phone. Jace stepped next to me.

"I thought I'd have to do a lot of talking with him but you seem to have helped him make up his mind" he stated lowly while everyone else was talking about other random s**t.

"Sometimes it's nice for someone outside your regular group of people to listen to your issues and then get advice...it helped me" I nudged him with my elbow and he beamed.

"I'm so glad we met you two" Jace said and hugged me. Luckily, with how everyone was getting closer on the trip, Dakota isn't as protective or jealous I should say when Jace makes contact with Tanner or I. Mostly me since I had my eyes on him before but that's besides the point. 

"We good with a steakhouse?" Sebastian asked and we all agreed before heading to the one he looked up on his phone. It was a restaurant that was the closest to our cabins since everyone was starting to look tired from the travelling and the adventures of the day. 

The food was great and by the time we got to our cabin I flopped on our bed and wanted to sleep. I felt Tanner poke at my shoulder.

"Come on, let's shower first before we go to bed" I heard him say.

"It'll take too long" I whined

"Not if we shower together" he said quietly making my head snap to him.

"Are you serious?" I questioned with an eyebrow raised, a shy smile appeared on his face.

"If you don't want to..." he trailed off about to turn to the bathroom. I hopped off the bed quickly and wrapped my arms around his torso.

"I would love to" I purred into his ear making him chuckle.

"Knew that'd getcha up"

"Don't tell me you were joking" I frowned and let my arms fall to my sides.

"No, I wasn't joking" he said as he turned to me and grabbed my hands with his. "I mean we shower all the time in front of each other for football" he shrugged and I gave him a deadpan look.

"Whatever" I rolled my eyes, walking past him into the bathroom. I leaned into the shower stall and turned the faucet on. He gave a nice slap to my ass making me yelp. He is super strong so the force of that slap, if I was naked would've left me with a red handprint on my ass.

"Don't be sassy" he said while pulling his shirt over his head. I marveled at his muscled torso while he moved to strip his shorts off, leaving himself in his boxers. "Like what you see?" 

I nodded enthusiastically "Indeed I do" I said biting my lip while looking up to his brown eyes, that were watching me intently.

"Well am I going to be the only one stripping or what?" he said and I quickly moved to strip down to my boxers as well. He came close to me and my breath hitched. I was disappointed when he passed me and stood in front of the shower stall door, letting his hand feel the water.  He hooked his fingers into the waistband of his boxers and slowly slid them off, revealing his voluptuous ass. The man's got some cake on him and I just want to dive in and eat it. 

"Coming?" he asked as he stepped under the spraying water. I shed my boxers off and kicked them away before stepping into the shower stall. We stood facing each other as the water cascaded down our bodies. His eyes left mine and roamed down every inch of my body, making a fire ignite inside me just from him looking at me like that. I was hesitant, but I slowly put my hands on his waist and pulled him closer to me. His eyes came back up to mine as I leaned in and captured his lips in a light kiss.

I smiled when I felt his hands on me, pulling me closer, his lips pressed harder against mine letting our kiss become deeper. I couldn't help but let my hands travel to his glorious ass, cupping it and giving both cheeks a nice squeeze. Tanner groaned against my mouth making me smile in a sort of victory that he wasn't pulling away. At this point our erections were touching each other every so often with our movements. I decided to be a little dominant and walk us back so Tanner was against the wall of the shower. His lips froze on mine making me pull back.

"This okay?" I asked searching his eyes.

"Yeah" he nodded and connected our lips once again, nipping at my bottom lip. I now decided that if he wanted to take this further then I would wait for him to make the move. I parted my lips while his tongue entered my mouth gliding against mine in a dominance fight.  He ended up winning and with is win he turned and pinned me against the wall, which only got me more excited than I already was. His hands trailed over my sides lightly as he moved away from my lips and down my jawline to my neck. I moaned softly as his nipped at a spot on my neck. 

The moan encouraged him to continue nipping and sucking my neck while his hands ran down to my thighs, ghosting over my skin. I was going nuts, I yearned for him to touch me. 

"Tanner" I whimpered as his hard on pressed against mine. I struggled but managed to control myself to keep from moving against him.

"Hmm?" he mumbled, his voice vibrating against my neck.

"Can we do something?" I asked and he nodded immediately. I mean he is the one getting this hotter but I still wanted to make sure it was okay. I moved a hand down to his d**k and lightly ran my fingers up and down it before grasping it firmly. Tanner groaned from the contact. I took one of his hands and trailed it down my body while looking into his eyes, watching for any sort of uneasiness.

 I placed his hand around my d**k and moaned in relief as he grasped it like I have his. With my free hand, I cupped the back of his neck and claimed his lips before I began a slow stroke up and down his length. He was hesitant but ended up doing the same thing. We both moaned into each other's mouths as we sloppily kissed. God, his moans were beautiful when they were coming from me pleasuring him. 

I flipped us again to where he was against the wall and started to stroke him faster, flicking my wrist to add to his pleasure. He slumped against the wall moaning as I kissed down his neck, nipping and sucking on his skin. His pace picked up, making me bite a little harder on his skin but he didn't seem to mind as he groaned, gripping my hip with his free hand.

"Char" he panted out, I nodded in understanding. I moved his hand from my d**k and gripped both of ours in mine and simultaneously jacked both of us off at the same time. "f**k that's hot" he said huskily as he jerked his hips with my strokes. I felt the pooling of my release coming while I grabbed his hand and placed it on one of my n*****s. He got the idea and started to pinch and play with it, making me moan in response. Tanner arched his neck against the wall and I felt his warm c*m land on my hand. I looked down to see some still spouting out of him still. It was erotic as hell to see him c*m from me. I kissed him hard and groaned as I came next. My hand slowed to ride out our highs as well as our kiss slowed. I let my hands rest against the wall as we parted our lips, forehead against his. 

"That was great" he said causing me to chuckle

"Yes, it was" I pecked his lips then moved under the water to wash away the c*m from us. Tanner got off the wall and grabbed the shampoo, squirting some in his hand before massaging it into my hair. I smiled at him. "You're cute" 

"Least I could do, you sort of did all the work" he said sheepishly. 

"Oh it's fine Tan" I pecked his lips "I still enjoyed it...I'm glad you felt comfortable enough to do that" I told him as I grabbed the body wash and started to rub it into his skin. Gives me another reason to touch all up on him. I rinsed out my hair and he rinsed his body before we switched jobs. His hair wasn't as long as mine so it didn't need too much attention. After we were both cleaned, we shut off the water and grabbed a towel to dry ourselves off before hopping in bed. I laid on my side and Tanner cuddled right up against my back, wrapping an arm around my waist in a secure hold. I smiled happily as he nuzzled his face into my hair. 

"You make me so happy" I whispered.

"You make me happy as well Charlie" he said, his breath fanning against the back of my neck. "I love you" he said as he placed a kiss against the back of my neck.

"I love you too Tanner" I said while wiggling my butt against his crotch.

"uh uh, we aren't starting that. We are both too tired"

"True" I said with a yawn. "Nighty night"
