While pushing back, I put my hand on his hip and tried to pull him forward. He began to push and his cock was in my gut again. He slowly spoon fucked me for a good fifteen minutes. There was no doubt that he was awake, but neither of us made a sound. The powerful push and pull of his cock was enough to drive me crazy with pleasure. When I came, I gripped his thigh and let out a somewhat girly series of yelps. My load was pretty small and I guessed that I lost most of it the night before. I was relaxed and he had loosened me up 扩开 with the lube and his fingers, so it was pure pleasure as he thrust and grew harder. It felt amazing and it was certainly the exact thing I was craving. I was powerless beneath him with my knees held together by my briefs and his weight behind each thrust, which pinned me to the bed. His pelvis was bouncing against my butt cheeks each time his solid shaft slid passed my hole, across my prostate, and into my gut. My eyes were closed as I accept him and felt the friction between us. My labored breathing 粗重的呼吸 was audible as my mouth hung open. I needed to be used and he was doing a great job of it. After a couple minutes, he plunged into me and started grinding against me. He was deep and the friction was constant. It was nearly enough to set me off, but he stopped before I did.

My hands gripped the sheets on either side of me and I was completely lost in the moment. When I felt his hand wrap around my shaft, I knew I was about to blow. While still thrusting 抽插 into me, he stroked me quickly no more than ten times before I erupted. My head went back, mouth open, hands now pulling the sheets off the bed, and cum spurting 喷射 onto my chest. The rush of pleasure had caused my hole to tighten around him, but his penetrations remained consistent. The familiar pain of being stretched open 被撕开 quickly rushed over me, but only enhanced my orgasm seconds into it. He was still stroking me outside and in. Everything happened in perfect sequence and the result was like two climaxes about five seconds apart. My cock was throbbing even after it had run out of cum and my hole was gripping his shaft harder despite the resulting pain. I had stopped breathing as my whole body seemed to lock up. My orgasm slowly faded and seconds later I began to relax again. My head was spinning and I was in a trance as my new lover relentlessly fucked me.

This started a rhythm of his head popping in and out of my expanding throat. He held my head in place as he dumped a massive amount of cum into my mouth one dose at a time. I happily swallowed up every drop and made sure to milk him for all he was worth. He took a few seconds to catch his breath before complimenting me on my oral skills. I was told to lay flat on my stomach. I was on one side of the bed with my head turned towards him. His cock was beginning to stiffen again as I felt him touch my back. His powerful hands massaged my back and shoulders for a few minutes until I was thoroughly relaxed. He found his way down to my butt and groped it gently through my briefs. He spoke slowly and in a relaxing tone about how hot I looked on the dance floor and that he almost shot a load in his jeans when I was grinding on him. He claimed I was the hottest boy in the club and was happy to have me all to himself. I felt his hand reach under my briefs and his middle finger quickly found my little hole. He teased it 戏弄, 玩耍 for a few seconds before pulling my briefs down to my knees. I couldn't quite see what he was doing, but the way he was playing with my cheeks and touching my hole made it feel like an inspection. He opened the nightstand and pulled out a few things. I felt the lube drip into my crack and his finger immediately working it around. He slid a finger inside me as he told me about how much he wanted to fuck me. He worked it around as he described what ran through his head on the dance floor. His fingers began a fucking motion as he detailed the thought that nearly sent him over the edge. After another dose of lube and his fingers exploring me led to the words 'fuck me' just slipped out of my mouth.
市场动荡: Reserve Bank of Australia Deputy Governor Guy Debelle has warned the global economy faces the "risk of a self-fulfilling downturn" due to business anxiety over the US-China trade war. Australia, however, could avoid the worst of the downturn because it isn't very involved in the global tech supply chain, which is where the trade war has been hottest. Government spending in China will also help. Debelle's warning follows major losses on Wall Street on Wednesday, due to heightened fears about a recession in the US. The ASX is also getting battered 遭重创 on Thursday. US investors — who saw their shareholder value decline by 3% on Wednesday in a major Wall Street wipeout 大清洗 — are unlikely to be comforted by the speech given by a Reserve Bank of Australia official on Thursday morning. Speaking at an event in Sydney, RBA Deputy Governor Guy Debelle sounded the alarm on the rising risk of a global downturn, just hours after fresh bond market data sparked fears of a US recession and a major sell-off of stocks on Wall Street. Debelle said the ongoing US-China trade war — and specifically, the related "technology dispute" such as the US government's decision to ban Chinese telco Huawei — is leading to uncertainty in global business, meaning business owners are hesitating to invest or launch new projects. "The uncertainty as to how the dispute will play out 结果如何 on both the trade and technology fronts means businesses are waiting to see how the uncertainty resolves rather than invest," Debelle said. "It is too risky to commit to a multi-year project or buy a large piece of plant if the economics of the decision can get completely undermined by a policy decision. "The longer businesses hold off, the weaker demand will be, which will further confirm the decision to wait. That runs the risk of a self-fulfilling downturn." But while that global downturn is likely if business confidence doesn't return, the impact on Australia might not be all that gloomy.
