Overcoming Angst

It'd been a month. A month of Brianna going to class less. A month of her disappearing to the wrong side of town to fuck the wrong type of men. Aaron loathed it. And he loved it.

They were fucking at their shared apartment now, her and D-Train and some other equally scuzzy looking dude. It wasn't hard to tell what was happening, because Brianna was noisy. D-Train was balls deep in her ass, making her screech like a banshee, and the other fellow, named Devonte, was enjoying her pussy. Aaron was on the other side of the wall, listening in. A mix of shame and angst and arousal. He wanted so much to have the courage to put a stop to it. To paint an alternative picture, an alternative world where Brianna and he could be happy.

And every time that courage built into him, it fled as the arousal kicked back in, as he wanted to lose Brianna to these older thugs, to lose what he had. It wasn't until they were finishing up, until Devonte promised Brianna that she could make a good living, working with him, put up in an apartment, getting all the dick she could handle, an invitation that made her think .... it wasn't until the loss was nigh that Aaron mustered any courage.

He knocked on the door after they left. Brianna was naked and cum covered, and utterly shameless around her gay bestie.

"Jesus ... they worked you over," Aaron said, stating the obvious.

"Mmhm. Tired me out," Brianna said. Aaron swallowed, and then he said it.

"You shouldn't accept their invitation," he said flatly. "You'd be throwing away your potential. Your future. Us."

"Us?" Brianna said. "Sweetie, there is no us. We're great friends, besties, but we can be that anywhere."

"What if ..." Aaron said, thinking, "what if we could be more. You and me and ...Derrick. I love you Bri, God, I've always loved you. I've wanted you more than I could say. And I ... God, Derrick's hot, and I'm not lying about being into him too. But Derrick is bisexual. I think I'm probably bisexual. Why can't it be the three of us? Friends, lovers, whatever we want to be. But together."

Brianna just stared at him for a long moment. And then she hugged him, to his surprise, tightly. She didn't go for his cock, and he didn't expect that. But the emotional resonance, that was there. And that was enough.
