Page 18 of Learning to Run

I’d mostly felt happy for both of them though and a kind ofwarmth I couldn’t describe.

They were…they were beautiful together but that didn’t takeaway from what I felt for both of them…not that I could describe that either.

But as Bates finally pulled us into the bedroom, all of theother random thoughts fell to the back of my head and our cuddling timewas the only thing I could focus on.

I wasn’t sure I’d describe a spanking and aftercare as justcuddling, but whatever made them happy.

“You know…” As Bates stopped us near the bed, I gave Garetha skeptical-looking side-eye. “I should probably be the one to take off thenaked cuddler’s clothes…just so he knows I’m not scared of his penis.”

The things they made me say.

Gareth’s head was bouncing up and down like a Bobble Headdoll, but Bates was trying not to laugh and barely managing to control himselfas he shrugged. “I think that’s a good idea. Just to make sure he knows.”

Vibrating with excitement like his whole body would justexplode any second, Gareth nodded and threw his hands up in the air. “I’m veryhelpful too.”

I wasn’t sure if he thought that would get him a betterspanking, a stronger orgasm, or a faster one, but either way, he was going tomake everyone insane if he didn’t get an A+ level spanking before the night wasover.

Bates had endless patience for the nut, though.

He just gave Gareth another kiss, nodding toward me to starttaking off the lunatic’s clothes. As I worked the shirt up Gareth’s torso,Bates gave him little pecks and teasing smiles. “You’re very helpful.”

More kisses were given after the shirt popped over Gareth’shead and his arms. “You’re very curious.”

Which was definitely one of Bates’s favorite characteristicsabout Gareth.

“You’re very sweet.” Another kiss distracted them both andgave me the perfect opportunity to start working off Gareth’s pants so I couldprove once again that I wasn’t scared of a penis.

Gareth moaned as his dick hit the air and the rest of hisclothes started sliding down his legs. He’d long ago lost his socks and shoes,so it was easy to get him naked. Bates seemed to appreciate that fact too.

He reached around Gareth and pulled me close so we had ourneedy boy sandwiched between us. The height issue was a bit of a problembecause I couldn’t lean over Gareth’s shoulder and kiss Bates like I wantedwithout looking ridiculous, but there were lots of places to kiss and distractGareth.

So I sprinkled kisses over his shoulders and back, andforced myself not to overthink the way I was rocking against him. It was almostthe perfect angle for me to fuck him and I couldn’t get the image out of myhead…especially when he moaned and pushed his ass back against me.

I managed not to freeze when my dick ground against him andhe spread his legs invitingly, but the idea that he’d want me to top him hadn’tbeen something I’d actually entertained. He was Gareth…athletic and funny andhad wide, sexy shoulders and a muscular back that made his ass look incredible.

“Kissing…” Gareth made no sense at all as he almost moanedout the word before he made a needy whine and got another kiss from Bates.

And from me.

Yep, I was clearly a sucker for the brat too.

Ignoring that we were basically rewarding bad behavior, Itrailed my fingers along his side and focused on kissing him. That was whatGareth wanted and he was confidently expressing it. There was no reason toworry about giving him what he wanted.

Well, no reason at the moment.

Eventually, it was going to make the brat a needy pain inthe ass, but I’d worry about that problem later. At the moment, I had enough onmy plate to randomly pick up extra things to worry about.

How we were going from kissing to spanking being one ofthem.

But I’d clearly underestimated Bates because as our handsbrushed against each other and he started kissing along Gareth’s jaw, hiswicked gaze met mine. “I love watching Cashel grind his cock into your ass. Buta bit of color on those cheeks will make it even sexier…and it’ll feel so goodwhen he does it against your pink, sensitive ass.”

Bates didn’t even get to ask what Gareth thought or what hewanted before the nut nearly gave himself whiplash nodding. “Yes, I’m ready.I’ll be good. Making my ass prettier is a great idea.”

Lunatic.

Chuckling softly, Bates nodded like the rambling wasperfectly reasonable and stepped back to sit down on the bed. We were bothtransfixed by the way he leaned back, stretching his legs out for Gareth, but Imanaged to keep kissing him and running my hands over him.

Everything I’d read online said that keeping him in theright headspace would be best and I didn’t want to do anything to throw Garethout of the frantic neediness that was firing through him. Making sure he enjoyedhis spanking and that we gave him a safe place to submit was the most importantthing.
