18 Getting Together with the Doll

"That's true," Evan found himself agreeing. "But Eternity is special. I will treat her with the utmost respect because she deserves it."

"So," Freiheit drawled the o's. "She ran out of energy because of your holier-than-thou moral standing?"

"Holier-than-thou–" Evan sputtered incredulously. "Don't make me laugh, Freiheit. You use women as a means of satisfying your libido. Cut that crap out."

"What I'm trying to say is," Freiheit groaned exasperatedly. "She shut down in public because she consumed all her energy with the meager amount of skin contact you gave her."

"Are you suggesting I never bring her out?"

"No!" Freiheit said loudly, not loud enough to be a shout but not too soft to bespoke. "I suggest that you should use Eternity for her purpose: have sex with her so she doesn't run out of energy."

"But I promise to treat her like a real woman and not merely to satisfy my carnal urges."

"But depriving her of energy is just you being selfish," Freiheit argued. "That's literally like starving her because you believe that she shouldn't get fat."

Evan furrowed his eyebrows at Freiheit.

"That's a rather odd comparison, but okay?"

Freiheit waved his hands dismissively.

"You know what I mean."

"I weirdly do."

"Do you get my point now?" Freiheit asked.

Hesitantly, Evan nodded.

Freiheit made a sigh of relief. But it was cut too short when Evan turned to look at Eternity, gazing at her affectionately. It made Freiheit shudder in disgust.

"What do you think, Eternity?" Eternity hadn't spoken in a while, and Evan didn't want her to feel left out, so he included her in the conversation. "Should we do more than kiss?"

Eternity smiled sheepishly, and her adorable cheeks were red in embarrassment.

"I don't want to sound demanding," she said softly. "Nor do I want to sound like I'm ransoming my body to gain something from you…"

"What is it?" Evan whispered in a calm tone. "Eternity, I could give you all whatever physical object you desire. Can it be clothes, jewelry, heck, even pets!"

Freiheit looked disgusted, earning him a glare from his brother.

"Although I would love the prospect of owning a dog," Eternity said shyly. "That is not what I want."

"What is it?"

With a deep heave, Eternity spoke. "Can we be girlfriend and boyfriend first before we proceed to sexual interactions?"

Freiheit's ocean-blue eyes widened.

He stifled a cough by covering his mouth with his hand.

'A mere doll, asking Evan to be her boyfriend?!' Freiheit didn't know if she was stupid or simply daring.

"I would love that," Evan replied, ruffling her long red hair.

Eternity beamed at him, smiling widely like it was the happiest day of her less than a week of a lifetime.

Freiheit looked like a stack of bricks fell over his head.

"Of course, I have to ask you formally first," Evan said. "Eternity, will you be my girlfriend?"

Eternity smiled sweetly, nodding her head.

"There's nothing else I would want in the world but to have you as mine," she said.

Mine.

Evan leaned closer to her and gave her a deep kiss.

Eternity was a bit surprised, but she played along with him.

Gods, she was so intoxicating that her mere lips were enough to get him addicted–

"Just fuck already!" Freiheit booed, making the thumbs-down gesture.

Evan glared at him menacingly.

"How can we possibly fuck if you're still here?" Evan angrily pointed it out. "Get the fuck out of my apartment, you scum!"

Freiheit grinned at him, revealing his pearly-white teeth.

"Simple, I'll watch."

"Fuck no," Evan immediately replied, knocking the notion down in a split second.

"But whyyyy?" Freiheit whined.

'Isn't this déjà vu?' Evan thought.

"You don't need to worry that I'll touch her. She's all yours," Freiheit reassured him. "All I want to do is just watch in the corner."

Evan opened his mouth to argue, but Eternity interrupted them.

"I don't mind," Eternity said.

"But—" Evan was taken aback by her immediate response. "He's my brother!"

"I think it's something that you've never explored, Evan. Exhibitionism, I mean," Eternity added as an afterthought. "In our relationship, I want to try all sorts of kinks with you, and who is a better audience for exposing yourself to something new than someone you trust?"

Evan frowned. "I just feel like I'll be breaking the boundaries with my brother."

"It's not like we'll have a devil's threesome," Freiheit reasoned.

Evan glared at him. "And you!" He pointed an accusing index finger at him. "I thought you engaged in enough debauchery; I didn't expect you to be a voyeurist!"

"Now you know!" Freiheit grinned, a little bit too carefree even by Freiheit standards.

Evan rolled his eyes at his brother and returned his gaze to Eternity. He held her hands tightly, giving her a comforting grip as they both looked at each other, eye to eye.

"Are you sure about this?"

Eternity nodded.

"I want to do this," she assured.

"But I want our first time to be something sacred." Evan knitted his eyebrows.

"We can engage in vaginal penetration some other time," Eternity gave him a soothing smile. "For now, I'll give you oral sex."

"Oh," Freiheit uttered in disappointment.

Evan glared at him again. "Pervert,"

"Yes, I am!" Freiheit admitted proudly.

"Let's give Freiheit a good show," Eternity said, causing Evan's facial features to soften.

"Are you sure about this?" Evan asked one last time.

Eternity nodded.

And without any warning, Evan kissed her.

He kissed her hard.

Evan shoved his tongue inside Eternity's mouth like his life depended on tasting the insides of her mouth. She squeaked, her eyes widening at the sudden roughness. Soon enough, she relaxed against him, putting her hand on the back of Evan's head to deepen the kiss.
