Stranger things have happened part 2/4

"I'm sure," said Luka, firmly. "After all Kerry," he said with an evil grin. "You are one of our most 'intimate' friends." He was rewarded by a small blush that spread over Kerry's cheeks.



It had been the anniversary of Dave and Luka's first night together, and Dave had promised to organize a fun-filled evening. Unfortunately he had still had to work that day...and he and Kerry had crossed swords over the treatment of a few of their patients. Not wishing to be late for Dave's 'surprise', and knowing that Kerry would wish to lecture him further if she saw him, he had persuaded Haleh to distract her with a question about nurse's rosters, so he could leave undetected.

"Thanks Haleh," said Luka. "I owe you one."

"You just have yourself a happy anniversary," said Haleh with a grin as she set off to waylay Kerry.



Luka wiped his mouth on the napkin and sat back in his chair. "That was superb," he said. "I will never be able to surpass your culinary skills."

Dave shrugged, "Maybe you should pay more attention when I try to teach you," he teased. "Last time you let the vegetables boil dry cause you found something more interesting to do."

"I didn't hear you complaining...in fact as I remember, you were begging me not to stop..."

"Hmm, yeah...well tonight, *you're* the one who's gonna be begging."

Luka grinned in anticipation as Dave leaned forward and took him by the hands.

"Do you trust me?" asked Dave, softly.

Luka's eyes widened in delight, as he recognized the phrase, which preceded all their games with restraints. "You know I do," he replied.

Dave kissed him softly on the lips before saying, "Chem 7?"

"Chem 7," said Luka, nodding.

Their 'safe-word' had only ever been used once in their fun and games. On that occasion, Luka had been using feathers on a tied up Dave. Overcome with laughter, it had taken five minutes for Dave to blurt out 'Chem 7', and by then he was in the throes of a violent attack of hiccups. It had taken several hours for the hiccups to stop...and after that, it was agreed that tickling and restraints were *not* a good combination.

Luka smiled as Dave strapped the restraints on his wrists and then pulled him to his feet. Expecting to be led into their bedroom, he was surprised when instead, Dave pulled out the swivel chair, which they had bought recently. Luka allowed Dave to push him down onto the chair. His hands were pulled back and tied securely.

Luka grinned as Dave knelt before him and loosely tied his ankles to the chair. "You know...you are in a very 'convenient' position right now," said Luka. "That is, if you wanted to do something..."

"Hmm, tempting," said Dave, with a smile. "But you're just gonna have to wait...I have this all planned out."

Luka smiled as Dave cast an approving eye over his 'captive'. "So what are you going to do next?" he asked.

"This," said Dave, as he produced a blindfold.

Luka raised an eyebrow, but didn't comment as Dave tied the blindfold over his eyes. Usually when they played their games, Dave preferred to leave Luka's eyes uncovered. Luka on the other hand always blindfolded Dave. He supposed that a psychiatrist would say it had something to do with his insistence on needing to be in total control of the situation...and as for Dave's usual insistence on letting Luka see what was happening? Well, that would probably have something to do with Dave being a tease and wanting Luka to see what was happening, but to be unable to do anything about it.

Luka felt the chair being pulled backwards and was wondering just what Dave had in mind, when he heard his voice close to his ear.

"I just have to get a few things ready," he whispered. "It won't take long...but just so you don't get bored waiting..."

Luka felt a pair of headphones placed over his ears. There was a gentle kiss on the back of his neck, and then he was alone.

The sound of Ravel's 'Bolero' coming through the headphones came as a surprise to Luka. He had been expecting Dave to choose something by Rage against the Machine, or Lo-Fidelity Allstars, but this was more to his liking.

As the music continued, Luka idly wondered what it would be like to make love to Dave with the sound of classical music ringing in their ears...first he could kiss and caress Dave all over, to the strains of Bolero...then he could...suck on his nipples and drive him crazy in time to Rhapsody in Blue...ending perhaps to the theme of Carmina Burana as he thrust himself into Dave's waiting body.

Ah yes, thought Luka...that would be good...he could imagine himself pumping and thrusting in time to the music...ah yes. Luka felt a stirring in his groin, as the music grew louder before ending on a final crescendo. In the silence between the tracks, he could just about make out the sound of movement in the room. It suddenly occurred to Luka that maybe Dave's surprise was going to be an unexpected anniversary party for them. He hoped that it wasn't...he wasn't sure if he could hold out much longer.

Taking a deep breath, Luka did his best to try and reduce his arousal. "Think unsexy thoughts," he said to himself, trying to dampen his ardor. It wasn't easy, but a combination of Romano in a bikini and Anspaugh in a dress, soon had his desire reduced to a more controllable level. All his hard work was almost undone when the music was suddenly cut off and he heard Dave's voice in his ear.

"Miss me?" asked Dave, softly as he removed the headphones.

"Not really," lied Luka.

"Yeah right...well I can see that part of you missed me anyway..."

Luka felt Dave's hands at his crotch, unzipping his fly and freeing his cock from its cotton prison. "Ahh," he groaned as he felt Dave's strong yet gentle hands caress him. "Oh yes," he moaned softly.

The hands were taken away and Luka felt them fumble at his blindfold. He blinked his eyes against the sudden light... which although harsh on his unaccustomed eyes, was slightly dimmer than it had been for their dinner. Luka didn't know if he was relieved or disappointed that he and Dave were alone in the apartment...a part of him had been most definitely intrigued by the possibility that Dave might have been 'playing with him' while other people were watching.

Turning to Dave, his mouth fell open as he saw that he was wearing a trench coat and hat.

"You are not going out?" he said, slightly taken aback. "Not while I am tied up like this?" There was a slight tremor in Luka's voice at the prospect.

"Of course not," said Dave, quickly. "You know I wouldn't do something like that."

"Then why have you a coat on?"

"You'll see," grinned Dave as he fiddled with the stereo.
