“Just don’t look so innocent in here that Derek thinks you’re too young to play naughty games with.” I didn’t think it was a real worry based on our texts, but I wasn’t going to take the chance.

“Oh.” Joel groaned. “That’s frustrating. I hadn’t thought of that.”

Dean was trying not to laugh but doing a terrible job of hiding his delight. “I’m going to find it really funny if your games backfire.”

Huffing, Joel looked like he wanted to cross his arms over his chest as we climbed the stairs to the doorway. “That’s just not fair. I’m cute like this and it’s too hard to pretend to be gruff and boring.”

Yep, every time he opened his mouth lately, I’d start realizing more and more why his dating had gone so badly.

“You’re adorable.” Derek must’ve been listening on the other side of the door because he was beaming as he whipped it open. “And now that I understand your dynamics a bit better, I’m not going to get confused.”

He had customer service down to a T because Joel’s eyes lit up. “I’m so glad. People get confused sometimes and it’s frustrating.”

Derek nodded like that made perfect sense as he stepped back and waved us inside. “I bet. Sometimes people are just easily confused, though. But you’ve got your Doms to help if something gets turned around today.”

Joel reached back and took my hand, dragging us into the building and looking around with wide eyes. “They’re great at explaining me to myself and to other people. Did you know being demi is a thing?”

Derek had a light-bulb-moment look to his expression before he got it under control and was back to smiling before Joel was focused on him again. “I’m so glad you figured that out. I always knew Tate was nice and smart, but it’s good to see that he’s taking good care of his sub.”

Joel found my praise adorable and grinned even wider, but Dean flashed me a curious expression that had Derek trying not to laugh. “He is. He’s even helping me get a cage today so I can look even cuter. We’re going to explore humiliation play. I can’t wait.”

Derek was doing his best to smile without actually laughing, but he looked like he was one deep breath away from popping. Joel just had that effect on people, so I wasn’t surprised or worried, because Joel was still bouncing with excitement and seemed to have decided that he liked Derek.

“That’s going to be so much fun.” Derek was mirroring Joel’s energy and nearly bouncing himself. “So that’s the kind of cage you want? Something to make you look even cuter?”

When Joel nodded and Dean and I mirrored him, Derek clapped his hands together. “That’s a wonderful starting point. I’m glad you know what you want. My second question is timing. I think with what you’re looking for a cage that’s designed for short-term wear might be best. You’re not going to class in it, right?”

That had Joel going very still and he not-so-subtly peeked back and forth at us before sighing. “No. They won’t let me wear it all the time no matter how cute I look. They’ll worry.”

Damn right.

Derek was frowning and even nodded slowly like it was terribly sad, but I could see the sparkle in his eyes. “Well we don’t want them to worry, but on the bright side, I’m sure you can find fun ways to ask to have it on or to earn wearing it.”

And we found something else Joel found fascinating.

“Earning it. Oh, I can be very cute.” Joel meant manipulative, but Derek’s giggle said he realized that. “Yes, I think that’s a wonderful plan.”

Gesturing us to follow with a jerk of his head, Derek started inching his way deeper into the store. “Figuring out ways to get you soft enough to have them put the cage on can be fun too. Oh, and there’s also figuring out ways that you can orgasm with the cage on. I think you’ll enjoy that also.”

“That really happens?” Joel released our hands and started following Derek like a puppy. “I read about that online but it seemed…it seemed like unreliable information.”

Derek snickered and reached out to take Joel’s hand. “I think that’s usually discussed in blog-style writing and it always sounds like an old Penthouse letter or something. But it’s something that happens and can be induced different ways. How much anal stimulation do you like?”

Joel thought that was a perfectly reasonable question to be asked and charged right on in answering. “I have toys that I like but real people haven’t worked out as well.”

Great.

Derek turned and gave us a curious look that was definitely a what the fuck kind of expression. Unfortunately, he was thinking we were the idiots who hadn’t been able to figure out Joel’s anus.
