- We can do two things - said Héctor -: I untie you, you go up to the house and we eat these hamburgers, or I don't untie you, I take you up to the house under these conditions and I eat both hamburgers while you watch? If you want the first option, raise one index finger; if you want the second, raise both.

Lucas was thinking. He had a lot of confidence in Héctor; he knew nothing bad would happen to him, but at the same time, he felt overwhelmed by the experience. He needed to talk to him. Was Héctor feeling the same excitement he was? Would it be a mistake to stop the game at that moment?

Héctor was expectant. On one hand, he wanted to continue with the game; for him, this new experience of domination opened his mind and made him eager to experiment. On the other hand, he had never played all this before. What if Lucas wasn’t comfortable? Since he had locked him up, he hadn't done a single check. He waited for Lucas to decide.

After a few seconds, Lucas lifted both fingers. Héctor felt he was doing his job well.

- I see you like being well tied up. You can be sure you will continue to be so.

Héctor untied the rope that connected the handcuffs to the trunk and did the same with the ankles, taking Lucas out of the trunk. Even so, Lucas could only hop. Héctor loved seeing how his friend was unable to move forward. He picked him up like a sack of potatoes and took him straight to the elevator. Lucas was excited and feared that his erection would be too evident on his friend's shoulder.

When they reached the elevator door, Héctor placed Lucas on the floor. It didn’t take long for the doors to open.

- Get in - Héctor told him. And, hopping, Lucas made his best effort to enter, and he succeeded. However, he lost his balance and swayed to his left. In an instant, Héctor stepped in to catch his friend. He enjoyed having him like this, but he didn't want him to get hurt.

- You're lucky I'm around - he said half-laughing.

Lucas felt helpless but safe; he didn’t mind that his friend had him that way. It was certainly humiliating, but next to him, he didn't care. The elevator started to go up, but at the ground floor, it began to stop. Someone had knocked. Lucas didn’t know what to do. How were they going to explain that he was handcuffed, tied up, and gagged?

In a blink of an eye, Héctor pulled out his phone just as the doors opened.

- And we continue celebrating Lucas's birthday! - he shouted with a grin from ear to ear.

It was one of Héctor's neighbors, and she was with her little son.

- Hi Meri! How are you?

- Héctor... - said the neighbor, astonished. - What are you doing?

- We're celebrating my friend's birthday; I've kidnapped him, and we're going to drink beer and watch "Forged in Fire" (as you can imagine, his girlfriend doesn't like the idea, so I’ve kidnapped him...) - he joked, whispering.<...
