A Little Relief
15 minutes later, they were anchored in a tiny cove, it was surrounded on three sides by high cliffs, and Nick told them that the only way to reach this place was by boat. At the bottom of the cliffs there was a beautiful beach, the golden sand glistening in the sun. They were all impressed by the beauty of the place.
"So guys. Whaddya wanna do first then?" Nick asked, smirking at Howie.
"Let's eat. Then we will have plenty of energy for later." Howie told him.
Nick's grin faded slightly as he realised he was gonna have to wait a bit longer, but when he saw Brian willingly start tucking into the sandwiches they had brought he cheered up. 'Dig in Brian.' he thought to himself, 'You're gonna need all the energy you can get.'
Howie sat himself down next to AJ, so close that their knees were touching. He grinned when he saw AJ tense up at the contact, and his grin widened when he felt AJ shift slightly to make himself more comfortable.
Throughout the meal Howie teased AJ relentlessly, touching him whenever he could, although making certain to keep the touches 'accidental.' Despite this, AJ was rapidly becoming aroused. He knew what Howie was doing, and he wasn't sure how much more he could take before he ended up throwing Howie down on the deck and fucking him senseless. He groaned as Howie reached over him to grab another soda, resting a hand on his knee to steady himself. Howie moved away slowly, staring up into AJ's face, his eyes full of mischief.
Nick watched the pair with amusement, and it took him a moment to realise that Brian was watching them too, confusion evident on his face. When they had cleared away the remnants of their meal, Brian moved away to stand on the bow of the boat, looking out to sea. Almost as soon as he was out of sight, Nick saw AJ grab Howie and pull him into a deep kiss. Nick smirked and headed over to join Brian, leaving the two lovers alone. He figured he could work this to his advantage and get the party started.
He walked up behind Brian quietly, before moving to stand beside his friend. Brian made no sign that he had noticed Nick, so he gently rested his hand on Brian's arm.
"Bri?" He spoke softly, trying again to get his best friend to talk to him.
Brian said nothing for a moment, before turning to look at Nick. "Hey Nick." He replied softly.
"You okay?"
"Not really."
Although it wasn't a very positive response, Nick was overjoyed, because up until now, Brian had been refusing to answer them at all, instead telling them to leave him alone, and not to interfere.
"It will get better y'know. In time. I promise." Nick told him, suddenly sounding wise beyond his years. Brian remembered the pain and heartache that Nick had gone through with his previous girlfriend, and the times that he'd had to hold Nick close whilst he cried out his pain and frustration.
Nick could tell what Brian was thinking, and he smiled slightly. "You were there for me when I needed you Frick." He sighed. "I just wish you would let me be there for you now. That's all I want, all we want. We just can't stand by and watch you hurt like this. We wouldn't be your friends if we did." Nick turned so that he and Brian were facing each other, and he finally saw the acceptance in Brian's eyes. He smiled and pulled Brian into his arms, holding him close. He felt Brian begin to shake as he finally allowed the tears to fall freely in front of him, and he tightened his grip on his best friend.
"It hurts Nick. It hurts so much." Brian whimpered.
"I know Brian, I know." Nick murmured, pressing a soft kiss on the top of his head before resting his chin there. They stayed like this for a few minutes, until Brian finally got his tears under control. Brian started to pull back, and Nick loosened his grip to let him.
"Thanks Nick. For everything." Brian said.
"S'okay. I knew bringing you out here would help."
"I thought it was Howie's idea."
Nick smiled. "It was. But I knew it would work."
"Where are they anyway?" Brian turned around and headed back down to the rear of the boat, but Howie and AJ were gone.
"Where'd they go?" He asked Nick. Nick shrugged.
"Maybe they took the stuff below decks?" He suggested. In truth he had a very good idea where Howie and AJ were, and what they were doing. Brian turned and went down below deck to find them. Nick followed him, a smile on his face. Brian looked around for them, not seeing them there either. Then he spotted the only closed door, and went over and opened it. What he saw made him stop dead. Nick walked over and stood behind him, his smile widening at the sight in front of him.
Howie and AJ were laying on the bed in the middle of a very hot kiss, their hands roaming all over each other. Nick watched Brian, and heard his breathing increase. Neither man moved, and they watched as AJ ran his hands down to Howie's ass and jerked their hips together whilst still caressing him through the fabric of his swim trunks. Brian groaned softly at the sight of two of his best friends kissing. They didn't hear him, but Nick did. Nick also saw the growing bulge in Brian's trunks that announced his arousal. He smirked before moving to stand directly behind Brian, mere inches apart. He leaned down and whispered in Brian's ear.
"That's hot isn't it. Watching them kiss. Watching them grind together like that."
Brian shivered as he felt Nick's hot breath on his ear. Nick wrapped his arms around him, pulling him back into his body, allowing him to feel his own arousal dig into the small of his back.
A small moan escaped Brian's throat as Nick ran his hands over Brian's chest, tweaking his nipples gently. Brian arched into the touch, before pushing himself back into Nick's body, all the while watching the pair in front of him, who were still unaware of their audience.
Nick lowered his lips to Brian's neck, licking and sucking gently, eliciting another moan from Brian. This time the others heard it and they stopped and looked around, grinning at the sight that greeted them. Brian's eyes were squeezed shut, a look of pleasure on his face as Nick expertly worked his body. Nick saw them looking and smirked into Brian's neck, inviting them over with his eyes. Howie and AJ looked at each other and shared a fast, hot kiss, before moving over to join Nick and Brian.
Brian jumped as he suddenly felt mouths on him, and his eyes snapped open as he looked down to find Howie sucking on a nipple, whilst AJ sucked and licked at his bellybutton. He moaned even louder at the multiple sensations he was feeling, and his eyes drifted shut again.
Just as suddenly as it had began, they stopped, and moved away from Brian, causing him to shiver at the loss. He opened his eyes, which were now dilated with desire.
"Wha?" He whimpered. Howie moved to stand in front of him and held out his hand.
"C'mon Bri. Let's get a little more comfy." Brian looked at AJ and Nick before reaching out and taking Howie's hand, allowing himself to be pulled towards the bed.
