Sweet Topping CV3 (14 page)

Pulling up in front of Gill’s house, Kyle looked at the steps. Shit. He hadn’t thought of how he was going to get inside. The ramp Gill had built for him was only accessible through the garage and he couldn’t get in there without a remote.

With a sigh, he took out his cell phone and called Gill.

Finally, after six rings, Gill picked up. “What!”

“Gill?”

“Kyle?” Kyle could hear the emotion in Gill’s voice. His already deep voice sounded lower and scratchier than ever, like it hadn’t been used often enough.

“I was wondering if you could open the garage door for me?”

“What? You’re here?”

“Yeah. I’m out front, but I realised I can’t get up the steps.”

“Hold on.” Gill hung up the phone and Kyle waited for the garage door to open. When the porch light came on instead and Gill stepped out of the house, Kyle’s breath caught.

Casey had been right. Gill looked like shit. Had his leaving really done that to him?

Gill walked towards Kyle’s van and opened the door. Without asking, he scooped Kyle out of the driver’s seat and carried him into the house.

Kyle motioned towards the van after Gill shut the door. “My chair?” Gill shook his head and set Kyle on the sofa. “It’ll be harder for you to run out on me if I leave it where it is, for now.”

Kyle wasn’t sure whether to be insulted or flattered. He took in Gill’s appearance. The black hair on top of Gill’s head was barely long enough to curl, but it seemed messy none-the-less. His once beautiful face now sported a full, bushy beard. The dark circles under Gill’s eyes attested to his lack of sleep.

“Are you okay?” Kyle asked.

Gill shook his head and fell to his knees. Putting his head in Kyle’s lap he began to cry.

“No. I haven’t been since the night you left me.” Overwhelmed by Gill’s emotional display, Kyle rested a hand on top of the big man’s head. “I was hurt.”

Gill looked up at him. “Why? Is it because I didn’t offer to go to California right away?”

“No.”

“Then why? I’ve racked my brain trying to figure out what I did wrong. I’ve replayed that night over and over again and I just don’t know.” Kyle’s heart melted at the sight of his big, strong lover in tears. “I…I thought you were different than everyone else. I thought my being in a wheelchair didn’t matter to you. That you loved me for me, not for what I could or couldn’t do.”

“I do. I do love you no matter what. How could you think otherwise?” Gill asked. He honestly looked confused.

“It just seemed like as soon as I said yes, you wanted to ship me off to learn to walk.

Gill, I don’t know that I’ll ever walk again. It broke my heart when I realised walking was so important to you.”

Gill started shaking his head vehemently. “No. I want you to walk for you. Because I have faith that you can do anything you set your mind to. You can’t honestly look me in the eyes and tell me you don’t care if you ever walk again. I know you too well. I know about the fights you had with your family over it. I heard you on the phone several times. I thought you kept saying no because you were afraid I’d find someone while you were gone. The ring, the wedding? That was to prove to you that I loved you enough to give you the time you needed to do what you needed to do. That’s all. No big scheme on my part.” SWEET TOPPING

Gill took a breath and wiped at his face. “When we started dating, you didn’t think you’d ever be able to cum, right?”

Kyle nodded.

“And I was okay with that, because just being in the same room with you was enough for me. But then you surprised us both and erupted like a geyser.”

“Well, more like a tiny trickle in the beginning,” Kyle was quick to remind Gill.

Gill shook his head again. “To me, it was a geyser. It was you overcoming an obstacle that had been placed in your way.”

“It never would’ve happened without you,” Kyle piped in again.

“I’d like to think that, but…”

“No buts. It wouldn’t have without your unwavering commitment to make me feel again.”

Gill finally grinned. It was the prettiest thing Kyle had ever seen. “Thanks.” Leaning down, Kyle placed a sweet kiss on Gill’s lips. “I never stopped loving you. No matter what I did, or how far I went, I couldn’t shake my feelings for you.”

“Good,” Gill leaned up on his knees. He placed his hand on the back of Kyle’s neck and pulled him forward until their lips met. “Kiss me properly, please.” With a moan, Kyle parted his lips and delved inside. Oh God, he’d missed this. The tiny noises Gill always made when he was getting aroused, the taste of his tongue. How had he ever imagined he could live without it?

Gill pulled back and scratched his beard. “Will you be okay here while I go clean up? I want to woo you all over again and that requires a good bit of hygiene.” Laughing, Kyle kissed the tip of Gill’s nose. “Why don’t you carry me into the bathroom down here and you can use the one upstairs. I hope you still have the stuff I left here, because we both have a bit of cleaning to do.” Gill carried Kyle into the bathroom and helped him undress, placing kisses over every inch of exposed skin. “I’ll bring in your chair so you don’t have to wait on me before getting in bed.”

“Thanks. While you’re out there, the motor to the elevator is fixing to go out again.

That’s the excuse I was using to come over.”

“You never needed an excuse. And as far as that damned motor goes? Either we’re going to have to buy a better elevator or you’ll just have to move in with me, because the thought of you stuck again, is unacceptable.”

“Do I get my own garage door opener?”

“Gold plated if that’s what you want.”

“No, a regular one will be fine.”

Gill gave Kyle another deep kiss. When he pulled back he rubbed the skin around Kyle’s lips. “I’m chafing you. Let me get this beard trimmed down and then I plan to reacquaint myself with every inch of your body.”

“Sounds fair.”

Gill collapsed beside Kyle. “That was…wow.”

“Mmm hmm,” Kyle mumbled, still with his ass in the air.

“Shit, sorry, baby,” Gill said and helped Kyle down off the pile of pillows. Gill positioned Kyle on his side and snuggled up behind him, fitting his still half-hard cock against the cleft of Kyle’s ass.

“I start therapy in three days.”

Gill stilled. What? No. Kyle couldn’t be leaving him again. “Can I go with you to California this time? Please. I don’t want to be here without you again.” Kyle brought Gill’s hand up to his mouth and kissed the palm. “Our resident busy-body and miracle worker, Nate, arranged for the doctors at the clinic to hire a therapist.

We’re going to work at The Gym for now. I guess Matt’s going to add a space for him at the clinic, but it won’t be ready for awhile.”

“Have you met him?” Gill drew circles on Kyle’s stomach as he spoke.

“No, not officially, but I’ve talked to him on the phone several times. He seems like a real nice guy, young I think.”

Gill didn’t want to fall into the same pit he had fallen into before, so he proceeded with great caution. “So, um, you’re going to continue the therapy?”

“Yeah,” Kyle said and looked over his shoulder at Gill. “Although I don’t know what I’m going to do about my kitchen at the bakery if I ever start walking again.” Gill leaned in and gave Kyle a kiss. “
When
, you start walking again, I’ll build risers for your equipment. It may not be pretty, but it’ll be functional.” Kyle picked at an imaginary thread on the bedspread. “Um, would you mind if we held off on setting a date for the ceremony?”

“What?” Gill sat up. “You mean you’ll marry me?”

“Of course,” Kyle slapped Gill’s chest. “But I want to see how the therapy goes.” Lying back down, Gill wrapped his arms around Kyle. He was afraid Kyle still thought Gill would prefer a walking man. “I don’t care how it goes. I want you, walking or not.” SWEET TOPPING

“I know that, now. But I’d like to dance with my new husband if at all possible, and that may take some time.”

“You can have all the time you need.” Gill ran his hand over Kyle’s hip before moving to grasp his cock. “You sore?”

“Nope, and even if I were, I’d want you anyway.” Gill reached to the foot of the bed and picked up several pillows. Placing them between Kyle’s knees, he groaned. “So pretty like this.” Scooting down, he placed a kiss to Kyle’s stretched hole, slipping his tongue inside.

“Damn, baby, you taste better than one of your desserts.” Thrusting his tongue into Kyle’s depths, Gill was startled when the muscles tightened around his tongue. He pulled back and tested the sphincter with his fingers. “Uh, Kyle?”

“Yeah.”

“Exactly what kind of therapy have you been doing in California?”

“Regular, painful kind, why?”

“Here’s a strange question. Are you thinking about gripping my tongue with your ass?” Kyle was silent for a moment. “I always do. I wish I could.”

“You are, baby.”

“Huh?”

Gill leaned over the side of Kyle so he could look him in the eyes. “You’re thinking about moving your muscles and they’re moving. Hell, you nearly pinched my tongue off.

That has to be a good sign, right?”

Kyle looked stunned. “Yeah.”

“Don’t forget to tell Matt.” Gill thought about it for a second. “Wait, on second thought, don’t tell him everything, just that you showed some control.” Laughing, Kyle shook his head. “Yeah, I think that would be a better idea.” Gill resumed his place and reached for the lube, slicking his cock. “Gonna make you feel good.”

“You always do,” Kyle moaned as Gill pushed the crown of his cock past the first ring of muscles.

“Let me feel you tighten around me,” Gill panted as he slowly pushed home.

As he set a slow pace, Gill tortured Kyle’s poor nipples. “I’d like to see little rings in these one day. You’re so sensitive anyway. It would blow your mind.”

“Uhhh,” Kyle groaned.

Using one arm, Gill held Kyle’s leg up even more, giving him better access. He felt the squeeze around his cock and grinned. Yeah, that’s what he’d been waiting for. Maybe one day Kyle would be able to move with him, really fuck himself on Gill’s cock.

The more he thought about it, the harder Gill pounded Kyle’s ass. Kyle was starting to babble in the cute way he had. “Good, ‘s good, deeper, oh yeah, there, right there,” Kyle screamed as Gill pegged his gland on every thrust.

“Grab your cock, baby,” Gill pleaded. He could feel his sac drawing up tight and wanted to give his man every chance to join him in his bliss.

When Kyle’s grunts and groans took on a feral quality, Gill didn’t hold back. He snapped his hips at lightning speed, burying himself over and over. “Yes, come for me.”

“Gill!” Kyle screamed as they both toppled over the edge.

His big body jerked as stream after stream of seed entered his baby. Gill lowered Kyle’s leg back to the stack of pillows, and wrapped his arms around his man. “Love you.”

“Me, too, always.”

The following morning, Kyle barely touched his breakfast. A new guilt had made its way into his gut and he knew he wouldn’t rest until he’d told Gill the truth about the breakins.

“What’s wrong, baby? Don’t you like my cooking?” It was so rare the two of them got to spend a morning together, Kyle felt even worse for his lack of appetite. Finally he put his fork down. “I need to tell you something.” With a fork full of eggs on the way to his mouth, Gill stopped. “What?” Kyle watched Gill look at the bite of food and set it back on the plate. Perfect, he’d ruined Gill’s appetite as well.

“I know who kept trying to break into the bakery. Although they weren’t really interested in taking anything. Kevin was just trying to scare me.”

“Kevin who?” Gill growled, ready to go slay Kyle’s dragons.
