“I guess not.” Dallas’ voice held wonder. “I thought it was a rule that it had to be a rule.”
“Every relationship is different, you know.” I shifted in my chair, starting to get a little tired. “But I get why the water rule. As daddies, we want you to take the best care of your body and mind. So, here’s one. You need to eat at least two vegetables and two fruits a day.”
“That’s a good one,” Dallas said. “It’s so much easier to eat prepared foods like pizza rolls, but we don’t take the time to cook real food.”
We chatted on for a while and came up with a short list of rules to try. Then we disconnected, and I went to bed, wondering if they really were going to get up to naughtiness or not tonight. My mind had a lot of ideas about how that might go, and my hand strayed down to my cock while I thought about it.
How would I ever survive two such sexy littles in my life?
Chapter Eighteen
Dallas
I’d taken a few extra shifts of late because the restaurant had a huge uptake of customers since a video of the place went viral for its giant fried cheese sticks coated with a sticky, garlicky, spicy coating. I’d tried them, along with the other servers, but I didn’t care for them. The taste was good, but afterward, there was an icky heaviness in my tummy that wasn’t the best for a long shift. The customers ate them up, but I preferred my tiny burgers or pizza cupcakes any day.
After my shift, I realized the little boutique store was still open. It was on the way home from my job, and I had an idea. Colter, Ari, and I had been together a few weeks. We went on dates, not only to Chained but to all kinds of places. Ari took us to the latest movie. We went to a late showing and, since it was a kids’ show, there were very few people there.
There may or may not have been making out in the back seats—could not confirm.
Okay, yeah, there was totally making out.
Colter and I made Ari dinner one night at home while the other littles were out at the club. It was a simple pasta with jarred sauce and frozen garlic bread, but our Ari ate it up like it was from a five-star restaurant. He praised us no matter what we did, but equally, gently told us when we weren’t following the rules.
I had grown to love both of them. Of course, I hadn’t said the words, but the feelings were there all the same.
I stopped at the little store and purchased a onesie that Colter had his eye on the week before. It was a bit pricey, but I had his name embroidered on the chest. The owner had even added a rattle to embellish his name.
Hopefully, he liked it.
Once I got home, I found Colter in our room. He was in his regular clothes and watching a video on YouTube. He and I had explored different things and, while we liked to watch different shows, we had some that we kept up with together.
He wasn’t only the other little I was dating. He was my best friend.
Still, I wanted more. We had made out with Ari but, between the two of us, there had been nothing more than kissing.
“Hard day?” he asked, putting away the tablet as soon as I walked in.
“I look that bad?” I laughed and perched on the edge of his bed. My tummy was a flurry of nervousness about the gift I’d bought him. Were daddies the only ones who could buy these kinds of things for their littles?
Had I overstepped some kind of line?
A sick feeling had already settled in my stomach when Colter asked, “What’s in the bag?”
Crap. I shouldn’t have brought the bag in here before I was sure.
The weight of my decision began to press down on me when Colter reached for the pale-blue bag. “Dallas? Did you go to the boutique? Why are you nervous? I can practically feel it in the air.”
No use trying to play it off now. “I…I bought you something.” My words came out in a stutter. The last thing I wanted to do was pop this perfect bubble we’d blown.
“From the little shop? Thank you so much. Can I see it?” Colter scooted over toward me and rubbed his hand along the bottom of my back.
I handed him the bag, holding my breath while he took the gift out and looked at it. “It’s okay if you don’t like it.”
“Like it? Dallas, I love it. I can’t wait to wear it when we play next.”
Relief washed over me. All my apprehensions dissipated. “Really? I didn’t know if it was okay for me to buy it for you.”
“It is. Thank you.” We shared a kiss but I wished it was so much more. “How about we have a sleepover tonight?” He smiled at me, and there was no way I could say anything but yes.
