“Excellent,” Tor said happily. “Third. Because I’m a show off, I sucked your cock into my throat. Don’t do that. Start with the head and work your way up to more as you get comfortable. That could be two hundred times from now.”
Pel blinked. “Twohundred.”
“I have an active imagination, and I think we’re going to be doing this for a very long time.”
Pel’s cheeks went pink, but he looked happy, and his shoulders had relaxed again.
Tor continued. “You can use your hands on the rest of my shaft, and I assure you that it will feel awesome. Questions?”
“Do you really think it’ll take two hundred times for me to improve?”
Tor snorted with laughter and pulled Pel in for a quick kiss. “Oh, goddess, now I see giving a number was a mistake. I just meant that there was no timeline.”
Pel made a face but didn’t argue again.
Tor kissed him once more, more leisurely this time, until more of the tension went out of him.
“Seriously,” Tor murmured against his mouth. “I’m really happy to learn this with you, and I’m looking forward to days, weeks,monthsof learning together.”
Tor was hoping for years, but he managed not to say that yet.
Earnestly, he continued, “I’m not in a hurry, and I will feel altogether worse if you try to rush and have a bad experience. Take your time, figure out what you like to do. You may not like sucking cock. Not everyone does.”
Pel blinked at him. “But you like getting your cock sucked. Don’t you? You said that everyone likes to get their cock sucked.”
“True,” Tor agreed. “But that was probably an exaggeration. For everything that most people like, there’s some people who don’t, which is perfectly fine. And yes, I like getting my cock sucked, but it’s not… a necessity of life, you know?”
Pel still looked troubled.
Tor pointed out, “Up until yesterday, I thought you weren’t attracted to me and we’d never have sex. But I was still here, wasn’t I? It’s not about what you can do for me. It’s about how you make me feel—and not in a sexual way. Iwantto spend time with you. Every day. Riding and grooming the horses and training and trying to get out of drinks with your father.”
Pel huffed a laugh that sounded a little wet.
Tor swallowed. “It’s spending time with you in whatever way we enjoy. I promise. I’m not going anywhere, even if we haven’t figured everything out yet.”
Pel sniffed. “You don’t live here.”
“But I think I have amply demonstrated my ability to visit. And who’s to say you couldn’t visit me? I’m sure we can figure this out.”
Pel sucked in a breath and then blew it out. “All right. I’d like that. I’d also like to suck you.”
Tor smiled broadly. “We candefinitelyfigure that out. But there’s more choices.”
Pel groaned, but he was grinning.
Tor was enjoying himself more than he could remember enjoying himself in a long time. And it wasn’t like he’d stopped finding sex fun or anything, but this… was different. He had the feeling he’d be thinking that a lot, when it came to Pel.
“Standing works if you’re not self-conscious about being on your knees in front of someone. It’s not particularly comfortable if you’re on a hard surface. You should also pay some attention to where the person you’re sucking is standing. Leaning against a wall can be very handy if their knees might not hold them up.”
Pel made a noise of understanding. “That makes sense.”
“But you don’t have to be standing. The floor works—though again, better to be lying on a softer surface. There’s no height issues to worry about, but it can get uncomfortable on your back eventually if you’re hunched over someone. Bed’s about the same, but obviously more comfortable. And there are some advanced options that I won’t get into because I suspect I’m already over-sharing.”
Pel laughed, but he assured Tor, “No, no, I like all the information. If you weren’t sharing it with me, I’d feel uninformed and worry even more that I was messing up. Just… tell me if I do something you don’t like, all right? I understand this is all about learning, but I’ll spend the entire time worried that you don’t actually like it and just aren’t telling me. I want to know.”
“Then I’ll tell you,” Tor promised.
He wasn’t concerned at all.
