“This is…”

“Delicious,” he said before giving me one more lick.“Do you like it?”

“I’m not sure.It’s strange.I think…a few more times would be good.”

He kissed the still-sensitive spot on my back.“That’s the plan.”

Another spoonful dropped, closer to my spine and followed in short order by Soyer licking warmth back into my skin, then again.It was getting more and more difficult to keep still, the interplay of cold and warm a pendulum that made me dizzy and on edge, everything he did magnified.

“You’re doing so well.So well, Amory.”

More ice cream, almost landing on my butt.When he licked it off me, I tensed not just because of how it made me feel.He seemed to notice, because he slowed and began massaging my butt cheek.

“Soyer?”

“Relax.Don’t be scared.I’m going to rim you now.”

I wasn’t sure what that was, but I was too tense, too excited, too overwhelmed to ask, and besides, I had an idea.When he spread my cheeks and cold ice cream dropped there, I screamed, almost kicking before I remembered he was sitting between my legs.

“Ssh.I’ll taste you now.”

This was the strangest thing I had ever experienced, and I had been on fire.

Things collided in my mind—how this was dirty, how I hadn’t even showered.And then, overshadowing that, how this was intense in a whole new way, how Soyer kept licking and licking as if…as if this was…good.

It didn’t take more than a few seconds of his mouth—his tongue—on me to make me sweat.I was wiggling under him, but he kept holding me in place, and his tongue…his tongue teased my opening.All of a sudden, I felt like I had during our first time.Unsure, out of my depth.

Then Soyer stroked my thigh and ran his hand almost to my knee.He was trying to calm me without speaking.His mouth was busy elsewhere, unrelentingly so, and I couldn’t quite relax into that.

But I tried.I tried because I trusted him.I focused on breathing, on feeling, on allowing what he was doing to me to bypass the thoughts I had about it and go right to where I could just surrender into the sensation.

My fingers scraped against the duvet, and I breathed against the fabric, smelling the subtle scent of the detergent Soyer used.

It changed then.All of this was still as foreign as the first time with him had been, but it was…better.

Soyer lifted his head.“Good.That’s good.”

Without so much as a hint, he spooned more ice cream onto me, making me flinch all over again.He kept holding me steady, and then he was licking the ice cream off me again.He was…licking into me.

It was almost too much to take, too much to let go on.I’d have been lying if I’d said I didn’t enjoy this.I was hard, maybe just from moving and the friction that had caused against the duvet.But still, there was no arguing that this was a different kind of closeness, one that wasn’t as easy as what we’d done before, and even that had taken me time to get used to.

Briefly, I wondered whether I could’ve more easily shown Soyer that I wanted this if I’d grown up differently.It was a fleeting thought only.No thoughts could stick in my brain for long, not when he kept doing what he was doing to me.

I was squeezing my eyes shut when I felt the cold of melting ice cream on me a third time.Soyer had only grown more eager.I didn’t understand that, but I didn’t have to.My toes kept moving against the duvet, and I was sticky with sugar and sweat, the heat he’d kissed into me.

When he didn’t just use his tongue but also added his fingers, I saw stars.He kept going, and I shivered and trembled, all of what I was feeling centered in this one spot.

Then, Soyer stopped, leaving me breathing heavily as if I’d run a marathon.He wasn’t done yet though.Still between my knees, he lifted my hips and guided me into a kneeling position, my face still in the sheets.

“My heart, will you look at me?”

I turned, but there was barely light enough to see by.Darkness had fallen before we’d gotten home, and five seconds hadn’t been enough to turn on the lights.

“Soyer…”

“You did well.”He stroked me, and the faint light caught on his muscular arms.“I know that felt strange, but you did well.Do you want to keep going?”His hands drew circles on my butt cheeks.“We don’t have to, but if you want—”

“Yes.”
