Part 36 (1/2)
Corey pulled back. ”You mean mate.”
”No, I mean babe.”
Corey appeared confused. ”What?”
Sledge smiled at him. ”Just as long as you keep your d.i.c.k to yourself, you're my babe.”
Corey's mouth fell open.
”You alright with that?” Sledge asked.
”Depends on what you think it means.”
”I don't wanna lose you, and if it means I hafta try new things with you, then I will.” Sledge held up a hand. ”Just as long as you don't push things too far or fast.”
”Like what?”
”I'm not touching your d.i.c.k, I'm not sucking it, and you're not to tell anyone 'bout us being a couple cos I can't handle it right now, I really can't.”
A slow smile crept across Corey's face. ”You said couple.”
Sledge nodded.
”Does that mean you'll f.u.c.k me?”
Sledge almost choked. ”I don't think you're up to that right now-or in the near future.” s.h.i.+t, what had he'd gotten himself into? He'd never f.u.c.ked a guy before, he hadn't even done a chick like that-what was the point, they had p.u.s.s.ies.
Corey started babbling, ”I'll get better quick, and the broken leg doesn't count, cos it's safe in a cast, and won't get in the way. And I'll be outta hospital in a couple of weeks, so we can do sumpthin' then and...”
”Hey! Hold up, I said don't push me.”
”I'm not pus.h.i.+ng, cos you agreed to do me.”
”Christ! I did not.”
”But that's what couples do,” Corey said, looking like he was going to cry again.
”Don't look at me like that, I'm not gonna jump into bed with you just like that.”
Like a light had been switched on, a smile lit up Corey's face. ”You said that like a chick. Do ya want me to court ya?”
”No, I'm the dude in this relations.h.i.+p, not you, you're the chick.”
”Am not, and you said relations.h.i.+p, which means we get to have s.e.x.”
Sledge exhaled loudly. ”I wanna take things slow, so don't push or call me names.”
”Okay, then kiss me, and make sure it's slow.”
”I can't do that here.”
”Why not? The curtains are drawn. Or are you leading me on?”
”No.”
”Then kiss me on the lips.”
”But they're split.”
”Kiss me softly.”
Sledge fidgeted about. ”I'm not in the mood.”
Corey let go of Sledge's hand. ”Well, get in the mood, cos I need proof you aren't bulls.h.i.+tting me.”
”f.u.c.k, you're pushy. Didja do the same to Juliet?”
”No, so kiss me.”
Sledge breathed in, then leaned over and kissed Corey. Corey's hand whipped out and grabbed his neck, holding him tight when he tried to pull back. Giving in, he slowly relaxed into the kiss, though he was afraid he was hurting Corey, because his mate was moaning. After one too many moans, he took a hold of Corey's hand and pried it off his neck.
Corey looked upset. ”Why'd ja stop? Didn't you like it?”
”You were moaning. I thought I wuz hurting you.”
Corey shook his head. ”You really are clueless.”
”What's that s'posed to mean?”
”I liked it, stupid, plus I wuz rubbing my c.o.c.k while we kissed.”
Sledge's eyes shot down to Corey's crotch, and the noticeable mound beneath the bedcover. ”f.u.c.k! You dirty li'l pervert.”
Corey smiled. ”What didja expect, you're hot?”
”You need gla.s.ses.”
”Nah, you need gla.s.ses. So, didja like the kiss?”
”Not sure, I wuz more worried 'bout hurting you.”
Corey's eyes dropped to Sledge's crotch, then moved back up to his face. ”You didn't like it?” he said, looking upset.
”I didn't say that, but I liked it more at Tyler's,” Sledge added, hoping that would satisfy Corey. ”And it's not exactly good kissing you when you've got a split lip.”
Corey's face lit up. ”I knew you liked it at Tyler's.”
