Page 30 of Need Him
Ben nodded. “I’ve had it before, just rarely. I doubt I could hold more than one or two.” He would stay with one drink because heknewhe couldn’t handle more than one. Although the idea of not being able to drive home at the end of the night was enticing.
“Okay. I’ll have another lemonade, please, Preston.”
Preston disappeared, and Victor resumed pointing out what they could see in the club; all the while, Gareth played with Ben’s fingers, sending shivers, goosebumps and fire through his veins. His cock—which had gone down on the journey to the club—rose to the occasion again, and Ben fidgeted in his seat. He could barely understand what Victor told him.
Discreetly, he rested his hand against his groin to ease the pressure while trying to listen to Victor. Ben snapped his head around when Gareth smacked the hand he held. Gareth raised his eyebrows, and Ben frowned, then glared when he realised he’d been doing what Gareth had asked him not to. He removed his hand, trying to pull his other from Gareth’s hand, but Gareth wouldn’t let him and instead pulled him towards him.
Gareth wrapped an arm over Ben’s shoulder and across his chest, nibbling on his earlobe. “What did I tell you about touching what’s mine?”
“What did you expect when you’re turning me on?” Ben hissed.
“I expect you to do as you’re told. No matter how difficult it may be.”
“You should punish him,” Victor said with far more glee than Ben thought he should have.
“Punish who?” Preston asked when he placed the tray of drinks on the table.
“Ben. He was touching himself.” Victor winked at Ben.
Preston grimaced. “You’re heading into troublesome territory if Gareth had told you not to,” he told Ben.
Ben tensed. “Well, he should keep his hands to himself if he doesn’t want me to get horny.” His eyes widened before he finished the last word, but everyone at the table heard.
“Ooh, Ben, what did you do?” Victor covered his eyes with his hands, though a smile graced his mouth.
Ben frowned. “What?”
Preston chuckled and stared at Ben while speaking to Gareth. “Gareth, have you told Ben how much you like edging yet?”
Gareth’s chest vibrated with his laughter. “Not yet, but he’s going to find out sooner rather than later.”
Ben swallowed. “Edging?” He knew what it was and knew there was no hope in him ever being able to hold back an orgasm, no matter the consequences.
Gareth nuzzled Ben’s neck. “Uh-huh. My favourite pastime. I can make it last…hours.”
Ben inhaled through his nose as his eyelids fluttered closed at the imagery. A tingle of heat swept through him. How could anyone withstand such torture?
“Or spank him,” Victor supplied. “He’d feel it for days.”
Ben opened his eyes and glared at him. “I thought we were becoming friends?”
“Oh, we are.” Victor smiled. “But I’m all for helping with punishments.”
“Victor likes to misbehave,” Preston said.
Ben stared at Victor, remembering what he’d read about in the forums about those boys who misbehaved on purpose to get attention or be punished. He hadn’t seen the allure of it until then. To have Gareth’s undivided attention…
A hand covered his cock, and he bit off a hiss and instead checked around the table to see if anyone was watching. Preston and Victor were talking, but Ben knew they were aware by the curled corners of their mouths. Ben wasn’t sure if knowing people could see aided his arousal or diminished it.
“This is mine, Ben. I get to decide when you come, where you come, how you come and how long you come. And it won’t be right now.”
Gareth’s hand left his groin, and it was all Ben could do to stop himself from putting his own hand in its place. He leaned back against Gareth, breathing deeply to get rid of the arousal pulsing through him. His three companions chatted while Ben floated. He couldn’t believe someone like Gareth wanted him.
“Do you want to dance, Ben?”
He opened his eyes, seeing Victor grinning at him. He glanced at the dance floor, where several other people let loose, and grinned. “It’s been ages since I have.” He went to move, then paused and peered at Gareth. “Can I?”
Gareth smiled and kissed him. “Have fun. But not too much.”
