Letting myself inside, I heard the shower going. I padded toward Wednesday first, who was stretched out on a chair, and when I reached out a hand, she actually let me pet her. Twice. Before nipping my finger to tell me she’d had enough. I considered them love bites.
I smiled as I headed toward the sound of the water, noting Nolan had left a trail of clothing all the way to the bathroom, like his own little strip show. And damn, now I wished I’d made this decision earlier.
Until I got to the door and realized I enjoyed the current view way better. I watched him for a minute, marveling at the idea that I found him so attractive. A guy. His muscled ass and his veiny arms from years of playing the guitar. And when he turned to get his hair under the spray, seeing his dick hanging flaccid and surrounded by a patch of hair made my mouth run dry. Why did I want to touch him so badly when I’d never given other men a second thought? Life was so fucking surprising sometimes.
Need hit me hard, and I suddenly loathed that we were hiding our attraction from our family and friends. I’d never concealed my feelings for Gayle, and it seemed wrong to do so here. Why did society care who you were attracted to? Though I had to admit, thinking about telling the guys and my parents made my gut churn. Such bullshit. Why couldn’t I admit that my best friend was my closest confidant and also turned me on so much that my dick was plump against my zipper right now?
I toed out of my shoes, then pushed my jeans and underwear down as our eyes met through the foggy glass of the shower door. His gaze wandered greedily over my bare skin, his cock filling with blood as he watched me. And fuck, that felt good. Like we were completely on the same page. Like maybe we’d figure this out together.
I couldn’t get my T-shirt off fast enough, and then I tossed it to the floor and headed toward him, my cock swelling in anticipation of being near him.
I shivered as the water hit my shoulders, and goosebumps lined my skin. But then he reached for me and planted a kiss on my lips, warming me instantly. “I was hoping you’d come. After tonight, I needed you, Ellis.”
I kissed his cheek. “What do you mean?”
“I don’t know…” His gaze held a hint of vulnerability. “Just needed you here with me after a night where I couldn’t touch you the way I wanted to.”
“I had similar thoughts. It’s not fair that people have to hide.”
His eyebrows drew together. “So what are you saying?”
“Just that it’s hard for me too.” No way I was ready to suggest more, and I didn’t think he was either. It was better to concentrate on other things instead, like making each other feel good.
I reached for his body wash and squeezed some on my hands. I started with his shoulders and worked my way down his chest, his nipples pebbling under my touch.
He hummed. “That feels so good.”
I kept going as the water beaded on my skin, rounding his waist to soap up his back. Our dicks grazing sent a shiver through me, and when I gripped his ass, the tips of my fingers brushing along his crease, he shuddered.
“You like that?” I asked.
“Yeah.” Nolan buried his head in my shoulder as if embarrassed.
I imagined what it might be like to touch him there with my fingers inside him and eventually with my cock, though I wasn’t sure if he’d ever want that with me. But the idea of being connected to him in that way made my knees weak.
“You’re so sexy, Nolan,” I said against his ear.
“Damn, I can’t believe how much I love hearing that. Does that…feel weird to say to another man?”
“No, it feels right. Because it’s true.”
Nolan swore under his breath as I stroked his cock and balls with the soap. He sealed his mouth over mine, parting my lips with the eager thrust of his tongue. His fingers clutched my waist as he drew me closer, and we moaned against each other’s mouths.
I drew away to catch my breath. “And I’m about to learn something new.”
“What’s that?” he asked in a hoarse voice.
“How to give head to the guy I’m wildly attracted to.”
“Holy fuck, you don’t have to—”
“Yeah, I really do.” I lowered myself to a crouch in the tub, and Nolan gripped the wet strands of my hair as I dropped kisses over his belly and thighs.
“I didn’t like it tonight.” Nolan’s tone was gruff, and I paused to look up at him. “I didn’t like people thinking you were with Shana.”
“Me neither. I don’t want anybody else but you,” I murmured against his stomach, feeling him shiver.
