Manchester Ménage 01 - Saving Samuel (26 page)

D
aniel paced around the airport waiting room, ignoring the looks he kept getting from Dalton and the other guys who were with him. He’d been glad of Dalton’s company, even if he hadn't really shown it, but he was the only really familiar face around him. Milo and Samuel would be here soon. It was nearly eleven and he hadn't slept for three days, not since Samuel had been taken. He crashed out for three hours after speaking to Samuel when he was rescued, but that was more like a coma than sleep. His body just couldn't take the amount of stress it was under and crashed.

“Calm down, Danny. You're killing me here.” Dalton stroked his back gently and Daniel blew out a big breath.

“I just want them home, you know. I want to hold them, feel them, check them out. Talking over the phone isn't enough.”

“I know.” Dalton made him sit down and pressed some tea in his hands. “Drink it, you need the sugar.”

Daniel sipped it while he looked at the door, waiting for someone to tell him the plane had landed and they were back on English soil. Just having them in the same country as him would be a bonus.

Dalton’s radio went off and Daniel listened as he talked to the other police officers outside. He stood up when he heard the plane had taxied to the gate and they would be getting off soon.

“We can walk to the gate. Please, just stay close to me, huh? You run off, I look bad.” Dalton gave him a smile, pearly white teeth shining in the bright light.

“I promise, no running.”

“Thanks.” Dalton opened the door, keeping hold of his elbow. “Just in case.” He rolled his blue eyes when Daniel frowned at him. “You have just been involved in one of the biggest international kidnapping slash drug bust slash Russian mafia boss case in recent times. So, you know.” Dalton squeezed his elbow and led him down the corridor. “I’ll be glad to have Aladdin back. I’ve kinda missed him. Even my morning gym routine has been missing a certain big mouthed, bull headed prick hovering over me, and I don’t mean my personal trainer.”

“Aladdin?” Daniel lifted a brow. “I’m so calling him that from now on.”

“I know, right! It’s funny. He hates it, by the way.”

“I bet.” Daniel sucked in a big breath then turned to Dalton and hugged him tightly. “Thanks, mate. I know I’ve been a huge arsehole, but I couldn't have done this without you. You're the only person I trusted through all this.”

“I'm glad I could offer you some help. Anything you three need, I'm always here for you.”

“Thanks, Dalton.” Daniel gave him another bear hug then let him go. “Sorry. I'm just… relieved.”

“Me too.” Dalton pressed his hand on Daniel’s back and got him moving again. “It’s just through here.” He checked his radio and got an update on the flight. “They’ll be coming out first. Security are prioritising them and getting them clear before the crowds, so they should be here any minute now.” Dalton hung back, letting Daniel move forward, pacing again as he watched the double glass doors for any sign of Milo or Samuel.

When he spotted them walking up the corridor, he sprung to the doors. They didn’t open and he glared at the man sitting beside the door. “Open them.”

“They’ll be opened when the passengers are here and ready—”

Dalton stood firm and tall, looking down at the guy with that stern look Milo got, and one Daniel didn’t know Dalton could pull off. “Open the door now, sir, please.”

The door sprung open and Daniel ran down the corridor, throwing himself in both of their open arms and hugging them. They held each other, swaying and kissing each other, and then Daniel pulled back and just looked at Samuel.

“You're not leaving us again. Not ever. Not once.”

“I know.” Samuel was crying as he kissed him. “I've been told.”

Milo wrapped his arms around both of them, but looked over their shoulders and smiled. “Hey, Dalton.

“Aladdin.” Dalton saluted him comically with a smile.

Daniel smiled at the huff Milo gave him.

Dalton shuffled from one foot to the other in front of them. “I hate to break this up, but…”

“Yeah.” Milo moved them forward. “It’s okay, Dalton. You have a room we can use or are we being moved off site?”

“There’s a room nearby, but we’re moving you to a secure location. Nothing top secret. Just somewhere we can surround with heavily armed police officers and watch your every move on closed circuit TV cameras.”

“Ahhh.” Milo leaned over and hugged Dalton. “I see. For how long?”

“A few days at most. Just a precaution. Think of it as a spa break or something.”

After an emotional reunion in the private room at the airport, all three of them were herded nicely but securely into a car and driven out of the city to a private house set in big gardens. It was a big thing and definitely had the feeling of a spa or plush hotel when they got inside.

“They're spoiling us,” Milo whispered to them both.

“I think we bloody well deserve it.” Daniel looked around. “If they’d brought us to some dive, I would be pissed off.”

Samuel took Daniel into his arms while Milo checked the place out with Dalton. “You look so tired. Are you hungry? Did you eat? You look thinner.”

“I'm okay, Samuel. I haven't slept or eaten much, but how could I when all I could think about was you and what could be happening? I thought…” Daniel swallowed, fighting to keep the tears spilling from his eyes. “I thought they’d killed you. Then we found that hotel and shit got worse, but we knew you were alive.” Daniel took a breath and wiped his eyes, looking down into the wide blue ones of Samuel. “I just couldn't cope, you know.” He let go and the tears spilled from his eyes. “I love you so much. When they took you from me, from us, I thought I’d die I felt so bad. It was like everything just stopped.”

“For me too.” Samuel kissed him. “I'm back now. I'm here and safe and I have the two men who I love more than anything with me. They got everyone who could hurt me. Things will be better now. Now we can start to live, Daniel.”

Daniel nodded. “It’s going to take me some time to believe that. Right now, I feel on edge, ready to run with you and hide somewhere.” Daniel looked around. “I guess that’s why we’re here.”

“I feel safe here.” Samuel’s brow creased and he wiped the last tears from Daniel’s face. “You need food and bed.”

“There’s no food.” Milo sighed heavily from behind them. “But Dalton says there’s a really good pizza place nearby so we can order what you like.”

The thought of food made Daniel’s stomach groan loudly. He couldn't remember when he last ate.

“Daniel needs food, and lots of it.” Samuel led him to the sitting room and sat beside him while Milo ordered the pizzas. “Everything will seem better in the morning. After a belly full of food and a warm bed with us two cuddling you, you’ll feel better.”

Daniel nuzzled his face against Samuel’s. “I wish I could have gone with Milo, but they wouldn’t let me.”

“It was dangerous. Even Milo felt out of his depth. I wouldn’t have wanted you to get hurt anyway. And they could have targeted you too. You were safe here. That's all I wanted, to keep you both safe.”

“I just need to spend a week with you in my arms before I can even think of anything else.”

Milo joined them, sitting on the other side of Daniel and kissing his neck. “That's how I feel. Time with just us is going to make things seem a lot better.”

All three of them held each other until the food arrived. Each of them wanted it, but didn’t want to be separated for a second to get it. Milo eventually went to collect the food from the police officer outside the front door, and then they all sat in front of the TV, huddled together and feeding each other bites of the delicious food.

Samuel and Milo finished, but Daniel ate loads. His stomach was full to bursting by the time he eventually admitted defeat and laid down with his feet on Milo’s thighs and his head resting in Samuel’s lap. “Not bad for a two a.m. snack.”

They dozed on and off for a bit until Milo finally made them go to bed. They found some of their own clothes in the bedroom. All in one room Daniel noted with a smile. He’d packed the bags himself before he left for the airport, so he knew they had things in there which they would actually want.

He dragged himself out of his clothes and slumped naked on the bed, watching as Samuel shimmied out of his skinny jeans and Milo tugged his sweater off his head. There were times in the past three days when Daniel didn’t think he would ever see Samuel alive, let alone have all three of them back in one room and doing something so normal as getting ready for bed. It filled him up and he smiled at them both as they climbed in, one of either side of him, both wrapping themselves around him.

He held them in his arms, smelling them and kissing their foreheads. He never wanted to be separated from these two men again and he was prepared to do anything to keep it that way. No matter what, they were sticking together like glue for the rest of their lives. He knew they had something special before Samuel was taken, but living without him for those few days made everything crystal clear, and he wanted to voice how sure he was of those feelings before he fell asleep.

“I can't ever see me being without you two. I don’t care what we have to do to make this work, but I need it to happen. I love you both too much for this to end. I know things will be different now this is over, well, sort of over, hopefully over.” Daniel took a breath. “I want you both in my life forever. It hurt too much being apart from you.”

“We’ll always be here for you, Daniel,” Samuel whispered against his chest before kissing it. “I'm not planning on going anywhere, I promise. I want this too. I want forever to be like we are right now.”

“Me too.” Milo hugged them both, encasing them in his strong hold. “I think we all agree on that for once. This isn't something we can just stop. It’s where we’re supposed to be. We belong together.”

“I love you both.” Samuel lifted up on his elbow, looking down at both of them. “Thank you for finding me and bringing me home.”

“We’ll be home in a few days.” Daniel kissed him. “This is just some house.”

“No.” Samuel shook his head with a smile. “This is home for me. You two. Wherever you are, that's where I want to be. That's where I feel like I belong.”

Milo kissed them both deeply before sharing a loving look with them. “We all belong together, that much I know, and I know no matter where I am, I never feel happier and more secure than when I'm with you both. Having you in my arms and knowing you’ll be with me when I wake, it’s like bliss to me.”

Daniel ran his fingers through Milo’s hair then held the back of Samuel’s neck. “I want this for our future. I want this and everything else life brings.”

They both nodded in agreement and Daniel laid back. He was worn out, but he needed to say that.

He relaxed into the mattress, feeling the two most important people in his life holding him and felt the world start spinning again.

Everything was right in his heart now they were back with him. He could breathe again, feel his heart beating in his chest again, smell and taste where before everything was bland.

He slipped off into a deep sleep for the first time in three nights.

S
amuel loaded the dishwasher up then wiped his hands down while he laughed softly at Daniel in the garden. He was setting up some sort of CCTV thingy, adding extra security to the house just in case. Samuel folded his arms across his chest. They were all still worried, but every little thing they did to secure the house and their lives helped them gain back some control.

It would take time before they felt one hundred percent safe anywhere, but after two weeks of being back in England and going through everything about the case and Nikolay, they all felt sure none of the gang would come looking for Samuel.

Daniel wanted to move to another house. They needed somewhere bigger and safer he said, somewhere they could all choose together. Milo and Daniel were selling their separate houses and they would all be moving in together in one place. When they found one they all liked, that is. Samuel wasn’t too bothered, he just wanted them to feel good about it, but he would like a nice kitchen, one that was a lot bigger than this one.

Milo snuck in behind him and kissed his neck, watching Daniel messing about outside with wires. “How’s he doing?”

“I don’t know. It’s hard to tell, really. Maybe you should help him or dinner will be spoiled.”

Milo squeezed his bum and nodded. “Okay. I won't be long.”

While they fussed outside, screwing the cameras to the wall and running wires down the nice red brick of the house and spoiling it, Samuel made a few calls. The first was to secure his place in the online training course for his high school exams. He wanted to get the ball rolling on that one quickly. He also booked himself in for some adult cookery classes. Then he called up Milo’s mum, Rekha.

She’d been round several times since they got settled back at Daniel’s last week and Samuel had really bonded with her. They spoke for ten minutes, catching up and talking about things which only mums ever asked, and which Samuel had never experienced before.

They were all going round for dinner tomorrow night and Samuel mentioned how nervous Daniel was. Rekha laughed, but assured him she liked Daniel and would go out of her way to make sure he felt that tomorrow. Samuel felt better about the whole thing, but then Milo came back in, his finger bleeding and Daniel looking shifty behind him.

“I’ll call you back. Dinner’s ready.” Samuel said goodbye quickly, then grabbed a towel and held it over Milo’s finger. “Are you okay?”

“I’m fine, it doesn’t need stitches.” Milo threw a hard glare at Daniel. “Next time, we pay someone to do that. I'm not having you putting a Black and Decker screwdriver through my finger again.”

Samuel gasped and ripped off the towel to see a hole in Milo’s finger. “Daniel!”

“It was an accident. God, it’s barely a scratch,” Daniel complained to them both, but Samuel could see the worry on his face.

“Just wash it and put something over it to keep it clean.” Samuel pushed Milo to the stairs then turned to Daniel and pointed to the sink. “Go wash up, you're filthy.”

“The cameras are up and plugged in. Everything will be recorded now.”

Samuel kissed him as he rinsed his hands in the skin. “Thank you. When we move to the new house, we should pay someone to do the next alarm.”

“Yeah, okay.” Daniel kissed him. “It’s just to put us on until we move. Hey, did you see the house Rekha found?”

“Yes.” Samuel smiled. “You know it’s four doors down from her?”

Daniel didn’t, Samuel could tell by his slack mouth and wide eyes.

“She just told me she likes you if that helps you change your mind.”

“I don’t know… That’s close, really close. What if we’re having sex and she comes round?”

“She could do that now. We would just lock the door and bluff our way through it.”

“You like the house, huh? So does Milo.”

“Erm, so do you.”

“Okay… we should go see it.”

“Whatever you want to do, I'm happy with it. I don’t really want to have a big impact on the decision because I'm not contributing to it.”

Daniel turned him around and frowned. “You’ll be contributing a lot and you know it. Just because you’re not able to put any money into this yet doesn’t mean you don’t have a say. This is our home, Samuel. Ours. All three of us. I don’t want you to be somewhere you're not happy. Just promise me you’ll stop thinking like this, please.”

Samuel sighed. “I know it will be ours and I feel like it will be, I just want to give something towards it financially.”

“You will do. When you're running a chain of super cool high fashion cafes, then you can contribute financially and Milo and I will retire to live the life of luxury.”

“Huh,” Samuel grunted. “I can just about wrap my head around this course right now, let alone think about a chain.”

“You’ll do it,” Milo interrupted them as he walked back into the kitchen. “I know you will. We’ll help you in any way we can, of course, but you'll be running it.”

“I’ll make sure everyone at my station uses it.”

“Yeah, I'm sure a lot of my guys would be there too.” Milo kissed them both then wriggled his finger with his pet lip hanging out. “It hurts.”

Samuel kissed it then shooed then both away. "I cooked salmon.”

Daniel sighed heavily, but Milo looked excited.

“Fish?” Daniel stuck his tongue out.

“You'll love it.” Milo winked at him.

“Is it in batter and deep fried?” Daniel raised a brow.

Samuel tutted. “No.”

“Then I reserve the right to not like it.”

“You'll try it first before you decide whether you hate it or not.” Samuel placed a bowl of potatoes drizzled in garlic butter on the table then bent down and pulled the baked salmon out. It was stuffed with garlic and thyme and it smelled so gorgeous, even Daniel cheered up. “See, it looks nice, huh?”

Daniel slapped his hand over his eyes and shuddered. “I can see its eyes. Cover them up. Cover them up.”

Milo laughed and dropped a napkin over its head. “Better, drama queen?”

“Yeah. I couldn’t deal with it looking at me while I ate it.”

“It’s dead, Daniel.” Samuel laughed as he bent over and kissed his forehead. “I love you. You make me laugh.”

Samuel watched Daniel picking through the salmon, making sure there were no bones in his piece of fish before eating it. He nodded while he chewed, then took another bite with a bit more confidence.

“I told you he’d eat anything.” Milo took a drink of his white wine and smiled at them. “It’s really good, Samuel. Well done.”

“Yeah, it’s nice.” Daniel grinned before having another bite.

“Thank you.” Samuel was proud of himself, even more so when he saw how they enjoyed his cooking. He bit his lip and drifted off for a few moments. When he came back, they were both watching him. “I know it’s not been long since we got the all clear, but I feel so much better. I have so much choice and sometimes it all seems too much for me to think about. I’ve spent so long never thinking about my future because I didn’t think I had one. Now I have endless possibilities to consider and two men who I love standing beside me. It overwhelms me sometimes.”

Milo and Daniel both took one of his hands. Milo kissed his knuckles and smiled. “You can do anything you want, and we’ll always be here to see you through it. Just don’t worry about too much too soon. Take small steps and deal with one thing at a time. You're so young, you have so much time.”

“But so much has been wasted too. I lost so much, I want it all back plus some and I want it today.” Samuel chuckled. “But I know I have to be patient, and if I can't be then I know you will be, Milo.”

“I will. I have enough for all three of us.” Milo threw a smile at Daniel.

Samuel ate while he watched Daniel picking through his fish again. Samuel could be patient about some things, but about his new life he didn’t want to hold back anymore and that included their sex life. He daydreamed constantly about their first time, but it still seemed far away.

Neither Daniel or Milo had ever put anything inside him, well, not counting their tongues. Samuel blushed furiously when he thought about the memories of how good it felt to have their mouth on such a secret part of himself. No one had ever done that to him before. When Milo first licked him, he thought it couldn't get any better, but how he was wrong. Samuel could feel his cock rising under the table and he stuffed another fork full of food in his mouth and tried to think about the books he needed to buy.

“What's got you so flushed?” Daniel was grinning at him.

“Nothing.” Samuel couldn't lie to them and he laughed at their head shakes. “I was just thinking.”

“Thinking about dirty stuff.” Daniel laughed as Samuel felt his skin burn against his hand.

“Maybe.” Samuel looked through his lashes, still not able to voice what he wanted and feeling silly and childish because of it. “I want to move on… sexually. Just experiment more.”

He didn’t want the last man who touched him to be Nikolay. He wanted Milo and Daniel to wash clean those times and light a new fire inside him which would burn him up and make him clean again. Purify his body so it would be just for them.

“We can do that.” Daniel cleared his throat a little, his deeper voice showing how the thought turned him on. “Just let us know how far to go.”

“I don’t want you to worry about how far, just when will do. We’ll all know when it feels right. I don’t like you second guessing me all the time. It makes me feel weird and reminds me of bad stuff I'd rather not think about.” Samuel knew it was the last thing they wanted and they were only trying to make him feel safe and secure with them. “I just want things to move on naturally with no guessing. I want you to touch me and enjoy me in any way you want. Just… you know, not all at once, and in one night.”

Milo refilled his glass as he looked into Samuel’s eyes. “Moving on naturally and slowly is what I want. I'm sure we’ll be able tell if you feel insecure about anything, we did before. As long as you're okay with what’s happening, I'm good to keep going and exploring our sex life.”

“I'm more than ready.” Daniel made them both chuckle.

“We know.” Milo ruffled Daniel’s hair with a big grin on his face.

“Well, tonight should be fun then.” Samuel let that hang in the air between them while he licked his fingertip. He could feel the air fill with static. It ran through them all and charged the room up. “I can't wait. Maybe we should have an early one.”

“How early?” Daniel looked over his shoulder to check the time on the clock hanging on the wall. “Is it too early now?”

Samuel bit his lip before taking a bite of potato. “No.”

“Bed does sound good.” Milo played with the tips of Samuel’s hair before leaning over and kissing him, running his hand up to his thigh and cupping his cock. “Oh, Baby. You're ready for bed right now, huh?”

“Hmm,” Samuel moaned against his lips. “Very.”

“We need food for the energy we’re going to burn up though.” Milo squeezed his cock one more time then fed him a fork full of salmon. “You should probably give Daniel some encouragement, or we may never get up there.”

Samuel slipped off his own chair and sat on one of Daniel’s knees, feeding him and kissing him while Milo watched them from the other side of the table. When Daniel pressed his hard cock into Samuel’s knee and moaned, they all pretty much gave up on the food and decided without saying a word they need to get upstairs.

Samuel was in between them both, being half carried half dragged up the stairs, all of their clothes falling to the floor as they stripped each other down. By the time they made it to the bedroom, their bodies banging against each other’s and the walls, they were naked and ready for more. All three of them were hard, working each other’s cocks, not caring who touched who or how, just kissing and moaning, burning for more.

Samuel found himself under Milo, legs spread open, knees pressed to the mattress and Milo’s hot mouth working down his cock and swallowing him deep. He fisted his hands in the dark locks of hair between his legs and moaned sweetly, opening his mouth and finding Daniel behind him, tilting his head back and slipping his cock into Samuel’s lips while he stood beside the bed.

They worked in sync it seemed and Samuel found his mouth and cock being serviced simultaneously. He let Daniel do all the work, shifting his hips into Samuel’s tight lips, groaning when he sucked harder. Samuel’s own moans vibrated around Daniel’s length every time Milo sucked him down and swallowed.

Samuel was almost ready to come when he felt the tight wetness of Milo’s lips leave him on the edge.

Milo looked down at them both. “Lay down on your back, Danny. I want you two to suck each other off while I lick you both out.”

Daniel kissed Milo as he crawled on the bed, laying with his thighs open and gently moving Samuel on top of him so they were laid with their mouths hovering over the other’s cock. Samuel smiled at Milo over his shoulder, shaking his arse at him as he pulled that glorious big cock of his.

“You two are a porn film come alive right in front of me.” Milo kneeled behind Samuel on the bed and parted his cheeks as Samuel dipped his head and took Daniel’s cock back in his mouth, moans muffled as they worked each other nice and slow.
