Sweet Topping CV3 (10 page)

“I’m fine.”

When Gill saw a flinch in Kyle’s shoulder muscle, he stopped. Removing the pillow he’d just added, he tried to help Kyle save his pride. “I don’t think we need that many.” He went back around to the other side of the bed and snuggled up to Kyle.

Running a hand down Kyle’s hip to his ass, Gill couldn’t help groaning. “You didn’t tell me you had toys?” He felt the lovely plug imbedded in Kyle’s ass.

Kyle shrugged, looking embarrassed. “I bought it a couple of years ago, but it was too hard to use and get any satisfaction.” Kyle looked over his shoulder at Gill. “I thought you might put it to better use.”

Gill leaned in and nipped at Kyle’s shoulder while moving the plug in and out of the tight body he wanted into so badly. “How does it feel?”

“Good when you do it, but I’m hoping you feel even better.” Pulling the plug out of Kyle’s stretched hole, Gill tossed it to the floor and reached for the lube and a condom. Even though Kyle was already slick, Gill didn’t want to take any chances. He quickly greased his cock, using the excess lube on Kyle’s hole. Gill grinned, showing his pearly whites. He tested Kyle’s readiness. “Oh, damn, baby. You feel amazing and I haven’t even gotten inside yet.”

“Well then hurry the fuck up,” Kyle whined.

With a grunt, the head of Gill’s cock pushed inside of Kyle’s warm body. “Oh yeah, that’s what I’ve been dreaming about,” he murmured, slowly burying himself deeper.

“Why didn’t you tell me before?” Kyle panted.

“No pressure.” Gill worked his way in to the root before stopping to let Kyle acclimate to his size. Knowing Kyle would need even more stimulation than most people, Gill began rubbing and plucking at his nipples.

“Gill!” Kyle screamed, goose flesh breaking out on his arms and back.

“Right here. You ready for me?”

“Oh god, yes.”

With a chuckled groan, Gill pulled out slowly before sliding back in. He felt his eyes roll to the back of his head at the sheer ecstasy he felt. It had never felt like this in the past. It SWEET TOPPING

didn’t matter that Kyle couldn’t move with him, he could tell by his love’s moans he wasn’t the only one feeling the power between the two of them.

Gill started moving a little quicker, and a lot harder. He wanted Kyle to feel every inch of his cock. Reaching down from Kyle’s nipples, Gill took hold of that beautiful cock between his lover’s legs. He grinned at the moisture his hand encountered.

“Look at yourself, baby. See how much your cock wants me?” Gill started stroking Kyle’s cock as he began pounding harder in and out of that sweet ass.

Looking over Kyle’s shoulder, Gill watched as Kyle’s cock wept for him. “I love it, I love you.” He pistoned his hips as hard and fast as he could.

“Watch. Oh, so pretty,” Gill grunted as Kyle’s cock erupted in strings of thick white cum.

The sheer joy of Kyle’s cries of completion sent Gill toppling over the edge into oblivion. He saw the lights dance in front of his eyes. He’d heard of such a phenomenon in books, but it had never happened to Gill before that night. Well, that was until now. He closed his eyes and enjoyed the brief but intense light show. “Wow.” When he came back to his senses, Gill removed the pillows, trapping his softening cock inside the heat of Kyle’s body. He licked and kissed his love’s neck as Kyle’s breathing evened out.

With a smile, Gill closed his eyes, unwilling to separate from Kyle for a moment. The wine and loving had taken their toll on Kyle and Gill swiftly followed him into slumber.

Kyle turned off the alarm and groaned. Ever since that first mind-blowing fuck, he and Gill had gone at it like rabbits until the small hours each night. Such a schedule was impossible for a baker, even if the sex was out of this world.

“Stay in bed with me, baby,” Gill grumbled.

“I can’t. The cookie bouquets have to be finished and ready for you to deliver before I start on anything else. Go back to sleep. I’ll call up later and wake you.” Gill gave him a sleepy morning kiss. “Love you.” Those two little words always put a smile on Kyle’s face. It no longer mattered that it was two o’clock in the fucking morning. “Love you, too. Now go to sleep and I’ll get out of here as quietly as I can.”

Kyle chuckled as he lifted himself to his chair. He hadn’t even got the entire sentence out before Gill went back to snoring.

After dressing, Kyle rode down on his elevator. He was just about to turn the kitchen light on when he heard scratching at the back door. His heart rate accelerated as he listened to the incessant noise. Kyle looked back up the elevator shaft. Should he call Gill?

It was obvious the person on the other side of the door wasn’t really trying to get in.

What the fuck was going on? He wheeled towards the door in the dark. He realised he’d been a real chicken shit up until now. Maybe he was crazy, but he suddenly had a strong feeling the person on the other side of the door was only interested in scaring him. He’d known from the beginning, breaking into the bakery hadn’t made sense. There was obviously nothing of real value to a burglar.

As he sat in front of the door, his hands began to sweat. What if he was wrong? Maybe the guy was just a really bad thief. He looked at the security key pad mounted on the wall.

Positioning his chair just right, Kyle’s hand hovered over the keys.

Taking a deep breath, his finger less than an inch from the panic button, Kyle unlocked the door and threw it open. He was shocked by the man standing on the other side with a screwdriver in his hand. “Kevin?”

Eyes big, the man held the tool in front of him like a weapon. “What’re you doing up? I know I wasn’t making enough noise to wake you.” With a sigh, Kyle keyed in the number to disengage the alarm. “Get in here,” he growled at his younger brother.

Disgusted, Kyle wheeled himself further into the kitchen. He heard the door shut. It was all beginning to make sense. “Dad sent you to scare me into coming home, didn’t he?”

“No,” Kevin replied.

Kyle turned around to face Kevin. “Then why? Do you have any idea what you’ve put me through these last several months? The expense?” Kyle motioned towards the back of the building. “I’m living with fucking bars on the windows and an alarm system because of you.”

Kevin stared at him for several long moments before Kyle detected tears streaming down his cheeks. “Kevin? What’s going on?”

Taking the few steps that separated them, Kevin fell onto his knees and buried his face in Kyle’s lap. “It’s all my fault,” Kevin finally gasped.

“Yeah, it is.” Kyle couldn’t help but to reach out and run his hand through his brother’s blond hair.

Kevin shook his head. “No, I’m not talking about the break-ins.” Kevin hid his face.

“The accident. It was my fault.”

Kyle’s hand stilled. “What are you saying?”

“I was supposed to drive you home that night. I knew how shit-faced you were, but there was this redhead…”

Rubbing his moist eyes, Kyle shook his head. “I don’t remember anything from that night.”

“I know,” Kevin continued. “I begged you to take me with you to that party on the grounds you could drink as much as you wanted and I’d get you home.” Kevin sat back on his feet before standing. He walked towards the mixers, putting distance between them. “I thought more about getting laid than you, and you paid the price. When you woke up and didn’t remember anything, I couldn’t bring myself to tell you. I was so ashamed.”

“So why all this, Kevin?”

“Mom and Dad aren’t the same since you moved here. They wander around the house like zombies half the time.” Kevin kicked the heavy piece of equipment. “They barely SWEET TOPPING

acknowledge my existence. I think they know I was with you that night. At first, I just wanted you to come home for them. When you came for Christmas and we found out you could walk again, I thought that was my chance at redemption. Only you were too damn stubborn. I had no choice but to follow you back to Cattle Valley.” Kyle really looked at his brother for the first time in a long while. He’d been as pissed as his parents when Kevin dropped out of college and took a job at a gas station. It suddenly dawned on him. Kevin had been as crippled as Kyle the night of the accident. Except while Kyle moved on with his life, Kevin was still mired in a pit of guilt.

“Come here.” Kyle wiped his eyes before holding out his arms.

Looking confused, Kevin walked slowly towards him. When Kevin was within reach, Kyle pulled his brother down into an embrace.

Kevin was hesitant at first, his spine stiff, his hands barely resting on Kyle’s back. “I love you, baby brother.”

At his words, Kevin buried his face in Kyle’s neck and hugged him back. “I’m so sorry.

God I wish I could relive that night. You have no idea how many times I’ve prayed for that.”

“Shhh,” Kyle soothed. “The truth doesn’t affect the way I feel about you. We can’t go back, and undoing the past just isn’t possible. I guess I came to grips with that about a year after the accident.”

“But you could walk,” Kevin gasped, still crying.

“Yeah, probably.” Kyle took Kevin by the shoulder and pushed him back enough to look into his eyes.

“There’s a man sleeping upstairs who I love more than walking. I know everyone thinks I’m crazy, but Gill, along with this bakery, has shown me I can do anything. I’ve weighed the pros and cons of going back to Irvine, believe me. But what would walking cost me?” Kyle held out his arms and looked around. “It could take months or years. I’d have to sell my home and business, and I’d probably lose the most important thing in my life. Gill’s life is here. He has his own business. He can’t drop everything and follow me to California.

Walking isn’t worth losing those things, at least for me.” Kyle placed his hands on either side of Kevin’s face. “Gill’s the only one who doesn’t seem to care that I can’t walk. That’s not a deal-breaker for him. Do you have any idea what that feels like? To know that kind of unconditional love? I won’t ever take a chance at losing that, not ever, not even to walk.”

Pulling Kevin back in for another hug, Kyle smiled. Even though what Kevin had done was wrong, Kyle understood. “I think you need to go back to Irvine before Gill comes down.

I’m not sure he’d be as forgiving as me. The police don’t know you’re the one and it’s best it remains that way.”

Kevin nodded. “Maybe I could move here, to Cattle Valley. Mom and Dad wouldn’t know the difference.”

“There’s one problem with that, Kev. You’re not gay, and most of the women in Cattle Valley are lesbians. You deserve to move on. To build a life for yourself without carrying the guilt from the accident.”

“Maybe Sheridan. Then I’d be close enough to see you.”

“They have a college in Sheridan. Maybe you could go back to school?” Kevin shrugged. “Maybe.”

Hopefully it would help Kevin heal his own wounds if he could see how happy Kyle was with Gill.

“Go back to Irvine and make the arrangements. You can stay here until you find a place in Sheridan.”

Kevin hugged him tighter. “Thank you, big brother.” By the time Gill came downstairs, the cookie bouquets were made and the morning inventory was in the display case and on cooling racks. “Wow, you’ve been busy,” Gill said when Kyle finished with a customer.

“You don’t know the half of it,” Kyle sighed, running his hand down the back of Gill’s thigh. The impromptu meeting with Kevin had put him behind schedule. He’d had to work double-time to get everything finished on schedule.

Gill bent and gave him a tongue thrusting kiss. “Happy Valentine’s Day.”

“It’s the first one I’ve spent with someone I love.” He looked around at the cellophaned wrapped baskets of cookies. “You ready to make the deliveries?”

“Yeah, I called the station to make sure my part-time help was there. I’m all yours for as long as it takes.” Gill gave Kyle another kiss. “I’m closing up early so I can take you out to dinner before the rush. Eric promised to save us the best table in the house.” SWEET TOPPING
