Page 62 of Learning to Run

Should that have prompted more discussions?

I hadn’t thought so at the time, but now, I was starting torethink that assumption.

“It seems like preparedness should be rewarded.” Cashelmanaged to sound relaxed and had completely hidden all his overthinkingthoughts.

It was impressive and worrisome, if I was being honest.

“I agree.” Sliding down the bed a bit, I pulled Gareth so hewas half draped over me and chuckled as he snuggled closer, not-so-subtlyrubbing his dick against me through our clothes. “We just have to figure outwhat kind of reward our needy good boy would appreciate.”

And a few other important details.

But since our pup loved sharing everything on his mind, Ididn’t think he’d have an issue answering a few questions. The way he wasrocking against me was a good distraction as well, so I wasn’t worried as Ireached down and gave his ass a firm pat. “What are our very ready pup’sfeelings on condoms?”

He giggled which had Cashel rolling his eyes for somereason…probably because that was an easier emotion to latch onto. “I went andgot tested at the clinic on campus after our first date.”

Gareth was one prepared cutie.

“I’ve been tested since my last partner and haven’t doneanything with anyone except you guys since then.” Kissing Gareth’s head, I gavehis ass another smack. “No one holds a candle to my sexy boys.”

Gareth was still happy and giggly, wiggling against me, butour sweet Cashel blushed and seemed to be deciding if hiding was acceptable orif he had to be Dom. His mind must’ve been whirling, but it eventually settledon Dom-lite, so I took that as a hint about what direction he wanted to go.

Out not in.

Well, not into him at the very least.

“I was tested at my physical last year because they don’tseem to believe you when you say you’re not having a boatload of sex.” Cashel’sfrustrated tone had Gareth looking up and resting his chin on my chest.

“You’re right.” Gareth frowned. “I thought it was just methat they didn’t believe.”

Interesting.

“I think they’re probably under the assumption that mostpeople lie and downplay their sex life and explorations out of shame orembarrassment.” I shrugged when they both frowned, and Gareth especially lookedconfused.

“Why would I have felt that way?” He cocked his head andfrowned at Cashel. “They’re medical professionals, not a priest.”

Cashel shrugged, obviously just as confused as our Garethfor once. “I don’t know but it was a pain in the ass to keep explaining thatbeing gay meant I hadn’t fucked any women.”

It sounded like I needed to drop a few interesting factsinto the ears of the professors on campus who would know how to fix thesituation down at the clinic.

“The last time I went they weren’t that bad, but it’s been awhile.” Hmm, maybe longer than I realized since I went to the on-campusprovider for that kind of stuff. “They might’ve gotten some new management overthere? Is it okay if I vaguely mention knowing some people who got treated veryoddly there? No details. I just don’t think that’s normal.”

Or healthy.

Or helpful.

Especially the gay and women part.

They both shrugged and even Cashel nodded. “That’s fine. I’massuming it’s one of the professors in the lifestyle?”

“Yeah, when I was first going here that place was run great,but it sounds like something changed behind the scenes and I want to letsomeone know.” I just had to figure out who.

“That’s fine.” Gareth kissed my cheek and seemed to beworking at keeping us on track. “We’ll come back to that discussion, though.”

Even Cashel almost laughed, but I nodded and tried to takeit very seriously. “I think that’s a good plan. We have other things to figureout.”

That had a shiver racing through our needy boy. “Yes,something important. A reward. A very aggressively given reward.”

A pounding, huh?
