STORY EXCERPT

“Lady. Can you hear me? Are you hurting anywhere?” The man was back with a crowbar, trying to get her door open.

My car. I just paid for it. Now it’s worthless.

Why that was bothering her when she was trapped inside of it, Abby could only attribute to shock. She knew it could do strange things to people. Was she hurt worse than she thought? She tried to feel around on her body but didn’t find that anything else hurt. Just her shoulder and legs.

“Get me out,” she called instead of answering him.

“The doors are stuck. The police and ambulance are on the way. They’ll get you out. Try not to panic. You’re going to be fine.” The man turned and talked to someone else before turning back to her. “I’m going to stay right here with you until they get you out. Don’t worry.”

Don’t worry? I’m stuck in my freaking car. Of course I’m going to worry.

Still, she tried to calm her breathing. She didn’t want to hyperventilate and pass out. That would be embarrassing. Then she began to worry if anyone else was hurt. What about the two cars that had slammed into her?

“Is everyone else okay?” she asked through the car door.

“Don’t worry about them. They’re going to be fine, too. Just relax. They’ll have you out before you know it,” he said.

Finally, Abby could hear sirens that grew closer and closer by the second. Relief poured over her like a smooth-running stream. Now she’d get out of the damn car.

Minutes later, her car was surrounded by men in all sorts of uniforms. Even the fire department had shown up. They were the ones with the equipment that finally peeled back her car door like a sardine can lid so that they could see about her.

“Hey there, hon. My name’s Ricky. What’s yours?” one of the paramedics that had squeezed through the firemen asked.

His bright hazel eyes were mesmerizing and complemented the buzz cut he had that looked to be blond in color. His handsome face showed nothing but concern as he immediately began looking her over.

“Abby. My name is Abby,” she finally managed to get out.

“Well, Abby, my partner, Ben, is going to put a collar around your neck to keep it steady, so if you have an injury to it, we don’t make it worse. I’m going to check your legs—they look like they’re wedged in pretty tight. How do they feel?” he asked as he knelt on the ground next to her.

“Um, they hurt, but not bad. I don’t think they’re broken or anything. Just bruised.” At least that was what she was hoping.

“So you can feel my hands on them?” he asked.

Abby started to nod, but Ben, the other man with him, held her head steady so that she couldn’t nod.

“Yes.”

“Good,” Rick said.

Then his partner was securing some kind of neck collar around her that kept her chin lifted. It wasn’t very comfortable, but she wasn’t going to complain. They were the professionals, and she valued their expertise. As a coder in the hospital, she knew they were well trained and would know what they were doing. She wasn’t about to complain about anything when all they wanted to do was take care of her.

Ben handed her a piece of gauze. “Here you go. See if you can hold that to your nose to help stop the bleeding. I’m going to check you over while Rick checks your legs out.”

She squeezed her nose with the gauze, biting back a curse when it hurt like a mother. She figured if nothing else was broken, her nose was.

Ben checked her eyes with a penlight and then pressed lightly on her cheekbones and jaw, asking her if anything hurt.

“No. Just my nose,” It came out sounding like she had a head cold with her holding her nose closed.

“Good.” He stepped away as Rick stood up.

“Looks like she may have a broken ankle on the right. I don’t see anything else that looks suspect. We’re going to have to get the seat to move to get her out though. She’s shoved pretty tight up against the steering wheel and dashboard,” Rick told someone she couldn’t see, probably Ben.

“Hey, Dave! Bring the jaws over here again. We need to push back this dash to get her out,” Rick called out.

Ben knelt next to her once more. “I’m going to put this blanket over you and me to keep any breaking glass from getting on you. I’ll stay right with you while they use the jaws to get you free, okay?” he asked.

“Okay. I guess the car is totaled, huh?”

He smiled. “Sorry, but it was totaled before we even started messing with it. You’re one lucky woman, Abby.”

“I don’t feel lucky right now, but I’m sure I will later. Right now, I’m getting a little antsy about getting out of here,” she admitted.

“I know, but we’ll have you out of here in a jiffy. Now close your eyes and hold my hand. It’s going to get noisy again.”

* * * *

Rick finished filling out the run sheet as they waited on the ED doc to clear Abby so they could retrieve their backboard. They’d already cleaned out the back of the ambulance, making sure it was as clean as they could get the back of one. He couldn’t believe they’d answered a call to find the perfect woman for them. He and Ben had just about given up on ever finding someone they both could fall for. Abby was it.

She was pretty and curvy, and had a good head on her shoulders since she hadn’t panicked like most women and even some men would have finding themselves trapped in a car. She’d trusted them and kept calm.

He also couldn’t believe that she worked right there in the hospital, and they’d never bumped into her before. Of course, with her being a coder, they wouldn’t see her unless they happened to be in the hall or cafeteria at the same time. Still, it was fate that they’d been the ones to take that call. He wasn’t about to waste the opportunity.

“She’s pretty, Ricky. I love all that auburn hair, and those green eyes are gorgeous,” Ben said.

“I agree. She’s the right one, man. I can feel it.”

ADULT EXCERPT

Abby had packed a bag to spend New Year’s Eve with the guys. They planned to ring in the new year watching movies before watching the ball drop in New York. She couldn’t wait. She’d been thinking about nothing else while at work. The thrill of spending time with them had her so antsy she had to double-check all her charts to be sure she hadn’t made mistakes coding them.

Rick picked her up at six and then drove to the store to pick up some last-minute items before heading to their place. She loved their house and enjoyed each time they pulled up to see the wraparound porch with its swing on one side and rocking chairs on the other side of the front door. She could imagine swinging when spring arrived. It was much too cold to sit outside now.

“This is going to be a blast,” Rick said as he helped her out of the cab of the truck.

“I can’t wait. I just hope I can manage to stay awake to ring in the new year,” she said with a laugh.

“Don’t worry. We’ll wake you up if you fall asleep. Ben even got little chime bells for us to ring at midnight,” Rick said chuckling.

“Seriously?”

“Yeah. He’s going all out for the weekend.”

“I can’t wait. What do you guys have planned for New Year’s Day?” she asked.

“Brunch when we wake up, meatloaf and black-eyed peas with mashed potatoes. Then there’s football and a snack for later,” he said.

“Sounds great. He’s been busy then.”

“Been up since seven cooking. He wanted to have everything cooked so all we have to do is warm it up when we’re ready to eat,” Rick said.

They walked inside with Rick carrying the two bags of things they’d picked up at the store. Evidently, they’d forgotten munchies for eating while they watched football. Plus, he’d picked up another six pack of beer “just to be on the safe side.”

Abby enjoyed sitting between them as they watched one movie after another. She dozed through one of them but was wide awake for the next one. After the second one, they stopped to eat sandwiches and potato chips and then dived back into another round of movies. She couldn’t concentrate on the movie this time because her body had started to react to having both hard men sitting next to her. She was well aware of their chiseled bodies and how good they smelled.

The more she sat there, the more turned on she got. Abby wanted them more than she’d ever wanted anything or anyone in her life. How could she let them know that she was ready to take the next step in their relationship? What was the next step exactly? They’d fooled around—well, they’d made her come with their hands and their mouths. Now, she wanted to feel them inside her. Ached to feel them filling her up with their cocks.

She shivered between them at the thought of their big dicks deep inside her body, moving, pumping her full of their cum.

“Cold, babe?” Rick asked.

“Hmm? Oh, a little.”

He pulled her closer against his chest. Ben scooted over and took her hand in his. “Do you need a blanket or a throw?”

“No, I’m fine. This is nice,” she said, snuggling between them.

She looked from one man to the other and nearly burst out telling them that she loved them but caught herself at the last minute. Now wasn’t the time. She’d tell them later. Maybe at midnight.

They stopped watching movies and ate a late dinner, and then settled down to watch TV while they waited for midnight. At eleven forty-five, Ben opened a bottle of champagne, so they could toast in the new year with one hand and ring it in with the other. They’d watched the ball fall in New York, and now they were counting down the seconds for their section of the nation.

At precisely midnight, both men pulled her in for a kiss, and then they drank champagne and rang their bells before collapsing in a heap on the couch laughing and singing “Auld Lang Syne” slightly off-key.

“Happy New Year, babe,” Rick said.

“Happy New Year, Abby,” Ben added.

“Happy New Year, guys. Last year turned out to be a great one. I can’t wait to see what this year brings,” Abby told them.

She was already thinking of a way to get them to make love to her. She’d suggest they shower together once they locked everything up downstairs and put away their party paraphernalia. The guys urged her upstairs while they took care of things downstairs, so Abby quickly stripped and waited by the bathroom door so they could catch her naked.

When she heard them at the door, Abby watched to see what their reaction would be. Sure enough, they instantly stopped to stare at her. While they’d seen her naked before, they hadn’t seen her walking around that way.

“Taking a bath, babe?” Rick asked, strolling toward her.

“I thought we could all use a shower. If we all take one, it only makes sense to conserve water and take one together.” Abby smiled. “I mean, the shower is sure big enough for all of us. That thing is monstrous.”

Rick chuckled. “You don’t have to tell me twice.”

She grinned when both men began stripping right away. She hurried into the bathroom to turn on the water to get it warm. She stepped under the spray just as they entered the room. Abby giggled when Rick pulled her against his chest so that she felt the hard length of him pressed against her lower back.

Ben’s cock was standing up just as hard against his abdomen. She reached out and wrapped her hand around his erection and pulled him toward her. They kissed, his mouth plundering hers as he used his tongue to map every inch of her mouth.

Rick nibbled her neck and along her jaw before he sucked at that sensitive curve where her neck met her shoulder. He nipped her there, and she groaned with desire. Her pussy was slick with the need for their thick, hard cocks.

“Fuck, I want to be inside that hot, wet cunt,” Rick said.

“We want you, honey. Will you let us make love to you?” Ben asked.

“I want that, too. I want both of you inside me,” she said.

“Are you sure? We don’t have to do that the first time, babe,” Rick said.

“I want to. I need both of you at the same time. I want to feel connected to both of you the first time.”
