The bell jingling over the door almost made him turn back. Almost. But Duo had come to this sex shop for a very good reason: he was damn horny. Six months ago, he'd been transferred to a new branch office of the advertising company he worked for. He'd left behind the city life he'd grown accustomed to in L.A. and found himself in a modest town. The population was barely over twenty thousand, which meant no nightlife. At all. Everything but freeway gas stations and fast food restaurants closed down by nine. Even the Wal-Mart shut down at midnight.

The nearest big city was a two-hour drive north, so Duo hadn't been out more than a once or twice a month. He hadn't found anyone to hook up with those times, either. After six months of enforced celibacy, he'd finally broken down and found the local sex shop, Merquise de Sade.

He'd cringed at the bell but stepped inside anyway. He half expected one of the dark, seedy little porn stores from the movies. The kind that none of the respectable townsfolk went to without trenchcoats and sunglasses. Instead, he walked into a bright, well-lit room of neatly organized racks and shelves.

"Afternoon," a man said. "Let me know if you need any help."

Duo looked for the speaker and spotted him at the back, holding a stack of boxes. The man was gorgeous, tall and pale, with long, white-blond hair. Duo would bet anything that he had blue eyes.

"Um, sure," he said when he realized the guy was waiting to be acknowledged.

With a nod, the guy went back to shelving.

Duo started browsing, not really sure what he was looking for. He had always enjoyed his lovers' bodies so much that he hadn't ventured into the use of toys and sex aids. It must have been half an hour that he spent wandering cluelessly through shelves of vibrators and dildos and plugs, racks of cock rings and handcuffs and lingerie. The sheer variety overwhelmed him.

"I told you to let me know if you needed help."

Duo jumped at the low voice behind him, and he flushed as he turned around.

"Sorry, you looked lost. First time in one of these places?" the blond asked. His nametag said Zechs.

"Yeah." He looked over at a display of leather cock rings. "I, ah, haven't need to, before."

"Tell me about yourself, then. We'll figure out what you need, and I'll fix you up."

Duo glanced up and met Zechs's eyes for the first time. They were, indeed, blue, and he was stunning up close. "Huh?" Brilliant conversation, Duo.

Zechs smiled. "Tell me what sorts of things you enjoy doing with your partners."

"I don't know where to start."

"Start simple. Do you like women or men? Or both?"

Duo found himself answering Zechs's string of questions with steadily decreasing embarrassment. He was matter-of-fact and plainspoken about it all, and it put Duo at ease. A few minutes later, Zechs seemed to be done, and he wandered over to the counter. Duo followed.

"You know, I came in to buy a vibrator or something. I hadn't expected to end up spilling my dark sex secrets to a stranger," he said, leaning against the counter.

"It's my specialty," Zechs replied, smiling privately at a scrap of paper he was scribbling on. "I'm very good at figuring out what satisfies my customers."

"So what's your prescription for me?"

"I think you need our custom introductory package. It's a little bit of everything." Zechs totaled up a series of items and showed Duo the sum. "Ninety for the lot. If you'll leave your name and address, I'll have it delivered to you this evening."

Duo paused. "Delivered?"

"Very discreetly, of course. No charge, and it's less noticeable than carrying a bag out of the store."

After a moment of consideration, Duo took a business card from the stack by the register and wrote his name, address, and phone number on the back. He handed it over with his credit card. "What time should I expect it?"

"My delivery man can be there around six thirty if that's all right," Zechs said, running Duo's card.

"Yeah, that's fine." Duo looked at his watch. It wasn't even five yet, so he had a while to wait and hope he didn't start to regret his decision. "Thanks...Zechs."

The look the man gave him as he turned to leave made him pretty sure he wouldn't regret a thing.

At six thirty sharp, a knock came on Duo's door. He shuffled over and looked through the peephole, but all he saw was a delivery service cap and jumpsuit. Whoever was under it was looking down at something. He shook his nervousness out and opened the door.

"Evening. Special delivery for Duo Maxwell."

Duo froze. Standing in his doorway, box balanced against his hip, was Zechs.

"What the hell, man?" This had to be some kind of gag. Zechs must have seen the way Duo had looked at him earlier and decided to jerk him around a little. Embarrassed, he moved to close the door.

"Wait, Duo," Zechs called. He threw his shoulder into the gap and grunted when the door ground into him, Duo's full weight behind it. "Just let me in for a minute, all right?"

With more than a little reluctance, Duo stepped back and let the other man in.

"Thank you," Zechs said, rubbing his abused shoulder. "Here's your package. You should check the invoice to make sure everything's included."

Duo snatched the box from Zechs and took it to the kitchen table. He opened it up to check the contents and found that everything was there except one item, a ZM26, whatever that was.

"Everything all right?" Zechs asked.

"Just one thing not in here," Duo replied coolly.

"Oh, no, it's right here."

Duo turned and saw that Zechs had removed his delivery uniform and was lounging against the wall in a pair of low-slung jeans and a tight red shirt.

"It's a special item, limited edition. Only one ever made. It's just been waiting for the right consumer to come along." He pushed off and came closer to Duo. "You looked like exactly the right consumer."

"Really now?" They were so close that Duo had to lean back to look up at Zechs comfortably. And did he have to sound so breathy when he said that? Damn.

"Mmhm. You seemed very interested in the product while you browsed, so I thought I'd...help you out."

They were gravitating toward each other, and Duo's cock was suddenly very interested in the proceedings. He knew logically that this was probably a big mistake, but he was hard and horny, and there was a gorgeous man in front of him who appeared to be more than willing to take care of that.

Fuck it, Duo thought, and he leaned in to kiss Zechs.

The next thing he knew, Zechs was crushing him close and sucking on his tongue. And damn, it was good. Duo groped for the box with one hand and Zechs's ass with the other. When he managed to get ahold of both, he began stumbling back toward his bedroom. Zechs followed obediently.

They crashed onto the bed because Duo didn't stop walking in time, costing them their already shaky balance. The box fell to the floor.

It felt fucking fantastic to have Zechs on top of him, all lean and hard--and hello, when did their shirts come off? He obviously had good hands if he could strip Duo without his noticing. Very good hands, stroking his arms and sides and chest, and teasing his nipples. One slid down to unfasten Duo's pants. He was starting to get a little dizzy because they hadn't stopped kissing, and when he broke away to pant for air, Zechs finished undressing them.

Duo licked his lips at the sight of all that skin, his to play with for the night. Right now, though, he was content to lie back and watch Zechs leaning over the side of the bed, looking for something on the floor.

"Where are you? Damn," he muttered. His hair, pulled back in a ponytail, slipped over one shoulder. "Ah-ha. Gotcha." He grabbed something and fumbled with the packaging for a minute before sitting up and flipping his hair back out of the way.

When Duo saw what was in Zechs's hands, he squirmed with a renewed bout of nerves. In one hand was a slim vibrator, and in the other was a small bottle of lube.

Zechs must have noticed the way he tensed, because he smiled and said, "If you want to stop, Duo, tell me."

"No, it'll be...fine," he said with a sigh, sinking back against his pillow. He sat up a second later. "But if you turn out to be, like, a serial killer or something, just make sure the sex is really good first."

"I'm not a serial killer," Zechs said, spreading lube over the vibrator, "but the sex will certainly be good."

He lay down beside Duo and kissed him again. It was slower this time, though no less arousing. This time, Duo had the chance to appreciate all of the nuances of Zechs's technique. The slide of his tongue, the light nip of teeth, the soft sucks on his lower lip...the slick finger in his ass. Oh, yeah. This was definitely Duo's kind of kiss.

After a few minutes of exploration, Zechs removed his fingers and switched the vibrator on at its lowest setting. He trailed it up the inside of Duo's thigh before slowly working it into him.

Duo writhed. They'd barely started, but the gentle buzz of the vibrator was sending little bolts to his cock. Zechs nudged his legs open wider and pushed the vibrator in deeper, searching. He was rewarded a moment later when Duo bucked and cried out. The effect of the toy on his prostate turned him to jelly and left him gasping for air.

"More," he demanded, one hand working his cock desperately.

"As you wish." Zechs turned up the intensity and continued thrusting it slowly in and out of him.

"God, fuck, that's...fuck me, Zechs. Fuck me," he begged.

The vibrator left him almost immediately, turned off and tossed aside as Zechs fumbled through the mess on the floor for a condom. Residual sensation from the buzzing kept Duo's nerves jumping. Zechs came up with a green condom and ripped the package open.

Duo took it from him. "Let me," he said. He squeezed a drop of lube into the tip before rolling it onto Zechs, also taking the opportunity to return some of the teasing.

"Duo...Duo, slow down. If you keep that up, you'll have to wait a while for me to fuck you."

"That'd be a shame," Duo agreed. He squeezed one more time, then sat back. "How do you want to do this?"

Zechs moved around to sit with his back against the headboard and his legs stretched out before him. "Come here. I want to see your face."

Duo straddled Zechs eagerly. Two long fingers slid back inside him, stretching him thoroughly, then a moment of emptiness dragged.

"Ready?"

"Yeah," Duo breathed.

Zechs's hand on his hip urged him to sink down slowly. Duo breathed hard through his nose as Zechs's cock pushed in. It had been far too long since he'd had this, and it was so, so good.

They paused for a minute when he was all the way in, just feeling. Then Duo braced his hands on Zechs's shoulders and began to ride him. The rhythm started slow and easy, but it picked up quickly. Zechs held Duo's hips in a tight grip, pushing and pulling to guide his speed.

Duo leaned in and kissed him harshly as he felt his orgasm nearing. He moaned quietly, then louder, and jerked one hand down to his own cock, stroking roughly. Zechs thrust hard against his prostate. Duo spasmed and came, spilling over his hand.

Zechs was panting. He pushed Duo onto his back and surged over him, pounding into him. Duo thought he looked incredible, muscles flexing, hair falling over his shoulder, expression intense. He looked even better a few minutes later when he came. It was like he was trying to fuck his way up Duo's spine, then he shuddered and fell forward. He braced himself on his elbows until he gathered enough strength to pull out and drop to the mattress beside Duo.

"Oh my God," Zechs muttered.

"Mmhm..." Duo stretched languidly and rolled to his side. He smiled. "Your product has a very high customer satisfaction rating."

"That's good to hear."

"You know, though, I don't even know your last name," Duo said.

"Merquise."

Duo remembered the store's name. "Ah, I see. Clever, my friend, clever."

"I thought so."

They lay quietly for a few minutes before Duo spoke again.

"So...are you doing anything this weekend?"

"Free as a bird. Why?"

Duo grinned. "Oh, I was just thinking I might need some help to really get my money's worth out of my introductory package. And there's one item that I plan on using every chance I get."

"Well, I do have to make sure the customer remains satisfied," Zechs said, stealing another kiss.

Duo thought satisfaction wouldn't be a problem.
