“Are you?”
“Babe, I’ve been ready all day.”
Grayson grabbed Nolan’s hard cock and rolled the condom on it. Then he lowered himself onto Nolan, loving the burn as Nolan entered him. He went slowly at first, and Nolan reached up and pinched his nipples, sending electric arousal to all corners of Grayson’s body.
And then Grayson was fully seated, so he began to ride.
Nolan threw his head back and groaned. Yeah, that was what Grayson wanted. He wanted Nolan out of his mind, so overwhelmed by the physical that he forgot about whatever was in his head.
But then Nolan surprised Grayson by lifting up and kissing him.
Grayson kissed him back, which required some weight shifting. Nolan canted his hips up so he could have more control over the pace and sent Grayson colliding forward. Grayson propped himself up on his hands and bent down to kiss Nolan.
“This is testing all of my flexibility,” Grayson said.
“Too much talking.” Nolan shut him up with another kiss.
Grayson shifted back up so he could ride Nolan. Nolan grabbed Grayson’s cock and started to stroke, which completely overwhelmed Grayson. He felt it all, suddenly, Nolan’s wandering hands, Nolan inside him, this strange connection between them, even though they didn’t have much in common other than their occupation. He rode Nolan, watched the ecstasy play out over Nolan’s face, and felt that himself as his own body started to roar.
“Look at me, look at me,” Nolan said, out of breath.
“Wha—?”
“I want to know it’s you.”
Something in Grayson went all mushy then, but his desire did not abate, so he kept riding and pushing them forward. But then he looked at Nolan—his face was flushed with arousal, his eyes a little watery—and something in Grayson utterly collapsed.
Lord, this man. So hurt, but wanting so much to live again. It was a heavy burden, being the person to steer a ghost back into the land of the living, but Nolan was certainly alive now. His skin was hot, his lips were swollen from all the kissing, and he looked like he might be about to fall apart. Grayson felt that facial expression deep in his chest.
“Nolan, I—”
But whatever Grayson was about to say was quickly lost as Nolan’s fingers pressed into some spot on Grayson that made him nearly explode. So instead of trying to reason with what was happening, instead of trying to make sense of it, he surrendered to it. Just as he was riding Nolan with the hopes of giving him everything, Nolan was doing the same.
“Oh, I’m gonna come,” said Grayson.
“Yes, come for me, baby.”
It hit Grayson suddenly. He was almost there… almost there… and then pow! With a gasp, he was coming ribbons all over Nolan’s chest, and Nolan just kept stroking him, until he was rendered motionless as an orgasm rocked his body too. Grayson reveled in Nolan’s body jerking and vibrating beneath him, as much as he could be conscious of it while his own orgasm surged his body.
A few minutes later, he lay beside Nolan on the bed. He wanted to ask about thatI want to know it’s youcomment but decided it was better to let it go. Whatever Nolan had meant by that had made Grayson feel special, and he wanted to hold on to that.
“That was great,” Nolan said. “I forgot my own name for a minute there.”
“Who are you? Where am I?”
“Exactly.”
Grayson laughed and snuggled against Nolan’s side. Nolan put an arm around Grayson’s shoulders.
“Mmm,” said Nolan.
Grayson didn’t want to read too much into this. Nolan probably still thought he was too young, still thought this was just a fling. Grayson’s heart was starting to get ensnared. Maybe holding out hope that this could really be something was a risk, but it could be worth it too. Or this might blow up in his face.
It was hard to say.
Chapter Eleven
LATE THATFriday night, Nolan was staring at samples, still trying to come up with a theme for the Cruz house. Grayson had plans with his friends in Brooklyn and had left an hour ago, so it was just Nolan and the damned samples in the studio. He decided to give up for the day and was about to leave when his cell phone rang. He didn’t recognize the number, but it was a California area code. On the off chance it was a client, he answered.
