With my hands behind my back - LN4 x Reader
âWhatever you want, the answer is no.â
âBaby, come on, you havenât even heard my proposition yet!â
âOh, so whatever you want is so insane you need to proposition me for it?â You laugh quietly as Lando groans in frustration. Youâre sitting next to each other on the couch, some random show playing on the TV â incidentally, it was one of the Thai BLs you had forced your boyfriend to love because it was the only thing you could mindlessly watch while you were talking, or cleaning, or whatever.
Lando, whoâs had his head in your lap, turned on his side as you lazily comb his hair with your fingers, straightens up and grabs you around the waist, pulling you close.
âJust hear me out, baby, come on, I promise youâll like it.â Before you can respond, he leans in and presses his lips to yours, pulling out all the stops to turn you into boneless mush against him. You melt hopelessly as his tongue intertwines with yours, licking at your teeth and stroking your hot flesh.
Panting already, you pull away before you can completely lose your mind. âThatâs unfair. You canât kiss me to make me do anything you want, thatâs cheatingâ, you whisper against his lips, not able to move away all the way, needing some form of contact, smiling as you say the words.
âIs it working?â, he asks slyly, smirking, and starts kissing along your jaw. You close your eyes and angle your head for him, world growing hazy as you forget most of everything you had just been talking about. âIs what working?â, you breathe, moaning softly as his lips drag over your skin, occasionally sucking hickeys into your neck and soothing the sting with his tongue.
Before he can turn you into a complete, willing puddle for anything and everything his freak brain can think of, you shove him off of you and shake your head like a dog trying to rid itself of water.
He laughs even as he falls backward, catching himself on the backrest of the couch. He stares at you innocently, letting his puppy eyes do all the work for him. You throw your hands up and huff: âOkay, fine. Letâs talk about whatever you want from me.â
âYay! I knew youâd come around.â
âOnly because youâre such a good kisser.â
âI know I amâ, he says smugly, wiggling his eyebrows. You laugh and pull him back in, cuddling up into his arms as he twines them around you.
âOkay, so⌠Thereâs this thing Iâve been seeing online that I really want to try.â âTry, as in food, or a hobby, or as in in bed?â
He snorts. âIn bed, obviously. You know me, I only get like this when Iâve found something new I want to do to youâŚâ
You shiver at the dark promise in his voice, and he laughs, pulling you just that little bit closer into his warmth. âSo, youâve heard of Shibari right?â
âThe Japanese rope art? Of course, what about it?â
âSo, Iâve been doing research on all the types of knots and everything⌠And now I just need someone to practice it on. It seems really relaxing to be totally honest, and obviously itâs also hot as fuck, so I thought you might wanna go for a tryâŚ?â
You blush deeply as you think about the implications. Both of you were very experimental and you werenât exactly angels in bed, either. Youâd dabbled in bondage both in your relationship with Lando and in the ones before him, but you were usually the person tying rather than the tied. However, you also trusted Lando more than every other person youâd ever been with, and the few pictures youâd seen scattered in online forums and the few BDSM clubs youâd been to, had certainly piqued your interest.
âWell, what exactly does this entail?â, you ask, trying to be as professional and un-aroused as you possibly could but failing miserably.
Lando nearly jumped up with you in his arms. Grinning wildly, almost bouncing up and down, he started talking at a mile-a-minute pace: âWell, thatâs up to you, of course. Iâve tried some of the really simple knots and constructs on myself and I can do some basic stuff, but for more complex patterns I didnât have anyone to practice it with⌠And this doesnât have to be a sex thing if you donât want it to be, either. We can just do the tie and thatâs it. Whatever youâre more comfortable with. Oh, Iâm so excited, this is gonna be awesomeâŚâ
You put your finger on his lips, shutting him up to get a chance to talk yourself. âOkay, calm down a sec. Iâd love to try this with you and thank you for trusting me enough to bring it up. I- Itâs been a while since Iâve- since anyone- since Iâve been tied up, so weâll have to start slow, and Iâll probably need a shit ton of reassurance along the way, you know how easily I slip when we do bondage. And I definitely need this to be a sex thing. Do I look like I have the self-control not to fuck my super-hot boyfriend if heâs spent the past few hours tying me up?â
âOh, itâs not about self-control. If I tell you to, youâll take everything like a good girl and thank me for it, wonât you?â The change in character almost gives you whiplash as you swallow hard, trying to cross your legs, to fidget around the mounting pressure in your core.
Lando quickly grabs your thigh, stopping you from moving. You whine loudly, not expecting him to slip into his role so quickly.
His voice is deeper, and heâs stopped moving so much when he responds: âOkay, I can work with that. Anything else you need to talk about?â His fingers trace the skin of your thighs, casually, almost mindlessly letting his fingers stroke you.
âHow long do the ties typically take? Should we, like, put on a show or something or do you wanna do it in silence, or talk to each otherâŚ? And we use the same safeword as always?â
âWell, the ties typically take something between ten minutes and half an hour, but some of the really crazy ones, especially with suspension, can take up to multiple hours, but I have no idea if weâll ever get that far, and we can always stop if you donât feel comfortable anymore. And I think itâs best if you have a show in reach in case you need to distract yourself, and you can always play it over air pods if I need to concentrate. I think generally itâs gonna be better if we talk to each other when I tie you, though, cause these types of scenes can get someone pretty deep into subspace really quickly and I know how you struggle with that. And of course weâll use Papaya as the safeword as always, and the color system too. Are- would you- I mean, how would you feel about me taking pictures at the end, just for us obviously?â
âThatâs fine, just make sure you donât leak them. That could fuck both of us up pretty badly, so donât do them on your phone, please.â
He chuckles a bit, fingers still tracing idle patterns onto your leg. âYeah, that makes sense.â He leans close and presses a sweet, languid kiss to your lips, letting you taste his excitement. âIâm so excited. Thanks for letting me do this baby, and remember you can always safeword out at any time.â
It became a ritual for the two of you. Youâd spend an evening, or sometimes an entire day at your apartment, being careful not to interfere with either one of your schedules. You preferred doing the more complicated ties during the weeks he had off entirely between races, settling for simpler wrist ties or chest harnesses when you two were on the road.
No matter how simple or complicated the tie was, Lando was perfect at it, and it helped calm him down so much that you agreed to let him tie you before a race weekend, just to ground him. The overflowing, almost nervous energy that usually sent him bouncing around both your apartments and the track steadied into something much more focused, contemplative, grounded. Even though he occasionally struggled when he was learning a new knot, he quickly incorporated it into his repertoire and always stayed patient with both you and himself. The rope gave his fingers something to do and steadied his mind, and it was incredibly hot to both of you when it was his hands that manhandled you into positions he wanted you in, before tying you down exactly like that. The fact that he was the one rendering you immobile had an insane effect on you, and he loved nothing more than seeing you grinding mindlessly, hopelessly against the ropes for friction you wouldnât get. Despite your earlier worries, he had eased you into the feeling of being immobile slowly, softly and carefully, and you had quickly gotten used to it again, almost starting to relax whenever he told you: âHands behind your backâ or âput your hands over your headâ, knowing that that meant he was taking responsibility from you and it meant that you didnât have to worry about anything anymore.
There had been a few situations, especially when he tried new ties, when you had safeworded out. The waist and chest ties especially had taken some getting used to as they always restricted your breathing in some way, no matter how loose he tied them. Over time, though, you had come to find even that reassuring, especially since the times you had said your safeword had been a perfect example of aftercare after a safeword, almost like straight from a book on good domming.
All of this was why you arenât even remotely nervous anymore when you crack the door to his apartment open, letting yourself in and finding Lando already setting everything up.
He bustled towards you, eyes lighting up and kissing you deeply before letting you go and pulling you further into the room by your arm. âTonightâs a crazy one, baby. I wanna do a waist harness with cuffs and then attach it to frog ties, which means you really wonât be able to move at all⌠and then I want to fuck you.â
âThatâs good, baby, I trust you. You should probably get to work then, it sounds like you have quite a bit of tying to get toâŚâ, you challenge with a small smirk that you already know youâre gonna pay for later.
Without him giving you any more instructions, you move to the large cushion in the middle of the room, stripping out of your overlarge petticoat, baring yourself to him in nothing but your underwear and kneeling on it. Reverently, slowly, Lando opens the clasp of your bra, letting it slip off your body as he presses kissed to your exposed skin. You shiver at the feel of both his mouth on you and the cold air as he shoves a pillow between your thighs and the backs of your shins and you sink into it, relaxing as he starts laying rope across your waist.
You close your eyes, breathing in and out steadily as he works around you, the harness slowly taking form as dark blue ropes crisscross your milky skin. Until he ties the rope cuffs around your wrists, you help him, holding the rope whenever he asks you to.
âYou still with me?â, he asks as he finishes the cuffs. âYeahâ, you breathe out, barely audible. âStill green, tooâ, you reassure him before he can even ask.
âGood. Can you get up, baby? Then we can do the rest of the harness and Iâll do the frog ties on the bed, okay?â
Carefully, you get your legs under and in front of you just enough to push up from the ground, half rising out of your own strength, half letting Lando pull you up with his hands on your arms. Once you were somewhat steady, he guides you to spread your legs as far as was still comfortable, thighs trembling slightly from staying in a folded position for a period of time they had not been accustomed to before the two of you had started all of this. Still, your muscles protested at the somewhat unnatural position and you groaned quietly as the blood began flowing normally in your legs again.
Lando, meanwhile, had almost finished connecting the waist harness to the crotch rope and the cuffs, absent-mindedly stroking the sensitive skin on your inner thighs whenever he had a free hand. Soon enough, he had finished this part of the tie as well and rose to his full height, standing tall over you by a few centimeters. He handles you carefully, as if you were a fragile flower he could break if he pushed too hard, and guides you to the bed, slowly letting you down onto your stomach, making sure none of the knots push into your skin too hard and kissing down your back as he moves down your body, eventually settling between your thighs.
He starts with your left leg, taking care to move it slowly so as not to overstretch it as he folds it clean in half so that the backside of your shin was pressed against the back of your thigh. The position feels a little uncomfortable at first, but you get used to it quickly as he ties the parts of your leg together, attaching that tie to your cuffs and the waist harness before doing the same with your other leg.
You are now well and truly immobilized, stuck with him between your legs, unable to move except for your head and maybe your waist if you found the strength to throw yourself around. However, you have absolutely no desire to, entirely content to lie here, at Landoâs mercy.
Distantly, you hear him ask for your color again and you mumble âgreenâ into the pillow, feeling hazy and not entirely like yourself.
And you truly believe that you are green â until Lando let his hands wander down your back. You flinch immediately as his hands touch you, trying to back away from the touch, a shake in your muscles you had only then noticed.
Without waiting another second, he straightens up, careful not to touch you again. âBaby, whatâs wrong? Do you need to safeword out?â
You nod desperately, silently crying into the pillow now, every dam broken all of a sudden. You feel the ropes fall away one after the other as he cuts them apart, freeing you, and you only start crying harder. âI- Iâm so- so sorry, I did- I didnât want to ruin the scene! Iâm so- sorry I couldnât t-take it, Iâm so sorry Lando!â
This is where he cuts you off and maneuvers you so youâre lying on your back, looking at him, legs stretched out again. The genuine concern in his eyes nearly breaks you as he says firmly, but gently: âYou donât need to apologize, baby, you were so good⌠You were perfect.â
âBut- but I said stop, I stopped the scene-â
âYou donât ever need to be sorry for that, baby, you have every right to. Iâm not mad at you, I promise, you did so goodâŚâ He continues mumbling encouragement and praise into your hair as you slowly come down, turning into him to pull him as close as you can get.
When youâve calmed down again and can form a coherent sentence, you immediately say: âIâm absolutely starving, but I donât want you to leave⌠This is why we need a third person.â
You giggle as he laughs at you, finally feeling a bit more like yourself again. âIf you can say things like that, you can tell me what went wrong during the scene, canât you?â
Yes, indeed you think you can.
