Chapter 17
Chapter Seventeen
The first day of school. Bay couldn’t quite believe it.
The summer had gone by so quickly and now the two older kids were back in school and Merida was off for a morning at daycare because she wanted to be a big girl and go to school too.
So they’d enrolled her. And Flynn was fast asleep.
He didn’t quite know what to do with himself.
Oh, he could have gone to his office and gotten some work done, but it was the first day of school and he’d told Will he wasn’t coming in today. He was thinking of cutting back even more. Letting Will handle more, or possibly even just really slowing down; it wasn’t like he needed the money.
“Pete?” he called out. If there were no kids and he didn’t have to go to work…
“Yeah, honey?” Pete was in the kitchen messing with something.
“We have an almost empty house and Flynn is napping hard.”
“He is. In his crib.” Pete’s eyes danced for him.
“I took the day off…” he added, wagging his eyebrows a little.
“Did you?” Pete’s eyes went wide. “You want to… play tiddlywinks?”
“As long as we’re talking about the tiddlywinks I think we’re talking about, you bet your butt I do.”
“Come on. Let’s go see if there’s something… fun to do in bed.”
“I can think of a thing or two.” He took Pete’s hand, feeling like a teenager, sneaking into his parents’ room with his boyfriend while nobody was home.
“Ooh… Are we going to be naughty?” Pete’s soft laughter was eager, warm.
“I sure hope so. I was tempted to give Flynn a drop or two of something to keep him asleep.” He winked, then added, just so Pete knew for sure. “Just joking, I would not do that.”
“I know, you dork. You’d never hurt the babies. Never.” Pete squeezed his hand, offering him a warm smile.
“Are you calling me a dork?” He’d have preferred stud. But he would take dork because he figured that was actually more accurate.
“You’re mine. That’s what’s important, right?” Pete pushed up into a hard, hot kiss.
He would have agreed with Pete, but he was busy being kissed, and kissing Pete back. They slowly made their way to the bedroom and to the bed as the kisses continued. Pete just took his breath away.
Pete worked his shirt open and off, humming deep in his chest, the noise so satisfied and hungry. He returned the favor, his fingers getting caught up in tracing Pete’s skin. So warm and silky. Once they were both shirtless, he brought Pete close, rubbing them together.
“Too many clothes,” Pete complained, as soon as their bodies parted.
He laughed. “I keep getting distracted by this amazing bod.” He began tugging at Pete’s pants, undoing them, then working them down Pete’s hips.
“You know, no one ever said that before you?” Pete returned the favor, pulling his clothes off, too.
“I guess there’s a lot of blind people out there.” Just because Pete looked after kids didn’t mean he wasn’t sexy as hell.
“I don’t care, so long as you see.” That was easy and confident.
“I see you,” he told Pete. “I see every inch.” Then he kissed Pete again, moving them onto the bed and rolling them until Pete was beneath him.
Pete wrapped those strong legs around him, dragging them together, and holding him close. Rocking his hips, he slid their pricks together, moaning into Pete’s mouth at the sensations.
“I really like naptime,” Pete whispered. “A lot.”
“Uh-huh. It’s my favorite time of the day.” He could totally get used to this as a perk of Flynn still having naps while the other kids were at school. He could totally make taking a break at this time a thing when he was working.
In fact, he was going to pencil it in.
Breakfast. Work. Nookie.
The thought made him laugh, the sound swallowed up by Pete’s mouth as they kissed.
Pete’s hard-on was hot on his belly, his lover burning against him. He rolled his hips some more, loving the way their pricks bumped and slid together. It made him shiver and his balls ache.
“I like how you smell,” Pete whispered, the sound buzzing along his spine.
“I didn’t even shower today.”
“I know.” Pete kissed his jaw.
That was the sweetest thing anyone had ever said to him. He kissed Pete harder, humped faster against him.
Pete stroked him, hard and fast, petting his prick, moaning low.
“Baby…” He groaned, back arching as he shot, the pleasure of Pete’s touch just perfect.
“So good.” Pete eased up, gentling his touch. “Touch me? Please?”
“Uh-huh.” He slipped partway to the side so he could get a better angle on Pete’s cock, and wrapped his fingers around it. It was all silk-covered hardness and heat, warming his palm up immediately.
Pete spread, his eyelids going heavy. “Oh, damn. Honey. Please…”
He took Pete’s spreading legs as an invitation and slid his free hand between them, teasing the tight little hole with his finger as he stroked.
“Yes…” Pete pulled one knee up, spreading.
“Not enough time to do what I really want.” He wanted to bury himself inside Pete and fuck him through the mattress. They didn’t have that kind of time, though. So he was going to tease. He pressed gently against Pete’s hole but didn’t breach it.
“Uh-huh. Tonight. I swear. As hard as you want me.”
He groaned and quieted Pete’s words with another kiss, tightening his hold on Pete’s cock. He wanted to make his lover come.
No one would ever suspect that Pete was so very sensual, so hungry, but Bay knew.
He licked at Pete’s lips as he pressed the tip of his finger into Pete’s body. It grabbed at him, trying to suck him in.
Such a needy man, hungry for him. It made him want Pete even more. No one had ever made him feel like this.
He licked his way to Pete’s ear to whisper into it, “I love you.”
“I love you too.” Pete’s body clenched down, his eyes rolling up.
“That’s it. Let me see your face when you come for me.” He squeezed hard, pinching the tip of Pete’s cock.
Pete’s lips parted and he gasped, his face going a sweet pink as he shot. “Damn.”
“Yeah.” He pressed their lips together, his tongue slipping into Pete’s mouth in a deep, slow kiss. No one was so beautiful when he shot.
No one.
He collapsed down onto Pete, still licking at his lips, hand stopped now, but continuing to hold the hot prick.
“Whoa. So good.” Pete kissed his jaw. “I needed that.”
“Yeah? Me too. Funny, I went for ages without sex and now two days seems too long to go without.”
“I know. Eventually, we’ll slow down, right?” Pete didn’t sound worried.
He snorted. “I don’t mind if we don’t.” Then he gave Pete another kiss.
“No, me either. Just think, in five years, we’ll have all of them in school and Belle will be a teenager.”
He shook his head. He’d heard horror stories about teenagers. Hell, he’d been one himself. “Nope. Not contemplated any of them being a teenager.”
“A girl teenager. It’s going to be something else.”
He rolled onto his back and put his hands to his ears. “Lalalala, I can’t hear you.”
Pete’s laughter covered him, like a blanket of love.
He smiled. He never would have guessed he could feel like this. He hadn’t known he was looking for it. And now here he was.
