Chapter 12

Brandon

Brandon had never intended to kiss Shane, or maybe he always had? But, regardless, he wasn’t quite sure that he’d entirely followed the conversation they’d been having… or what Shane had been upset about… or how they’d finally arrived at this moment.

It didn’t matter though, because Shane was kissing him back.

Brandon smiled without moving away, letting his lips curve against Shane’s as he smoothed a hand down Shane’s back and pulled him even closer.

Shane… was… kissing… him… back.

Shane had stiffened in his arms for a split-second right after their lips had touched, but, before Brandon had time to worry that he’d done exactly the wrong thing, Shane melted against him. Exactly the way he always did… except better. Because, for once, it wasn’t just a friendly hug or a moment of comfort. Instead, it was exactly what Brandon had always wanted.

The exhaustion he’d been fighting for the last few hours was forgotten, completely replaced by something that was both infinitely sweet and filled with a heat and urgency that went way beyond the simple needs of his instantly-hard cock.

Not that he was going to rush Shane more than this, of course.

Not that he expected—

“So, about that shower,” Shane said, wrapping his arms around Brandon’s waist as he broke the kiss and leaned back just enough to meet Brandon’s eyes. His were gorgeous, dark and sparkling and filled with all the same things Brandon was feeling.

Shane raised an eyebrow, cheeks flushed and pink, and—looking both daring and a little tentative, all at the same time—he asked, “Want some company?”

There was a little voice in Brandon’s head—the one that was always telling him to “do the right thing,” as Shane had said—that was still screaming at him to take it slow. For once, though, he ignored that voice. The feel of Shane in his arms and the heady knowledge that he seemed to want this, too, made it impossible to resist giving in to what he really wanted.

Especially when his body was fully, one hundred percent on board with the idea.

“Definitely,” Brandon said.

Still, neither one of them made a move to pull away from each other. In fact, when Shane slid his hands up Brandon’s sides, then pressed his palms against Brandon’s chest—sending a delicious shiver through him—Brandon realized that he would be perfectly content to never move at all, as long as Shane kept touching him like that.

“Oh my God, Brandon,” he said, his voice just above a whisper. “I can’t believe this is really happening. I didn’t think it ever would.”

“I know,” Brandon said, understanding exactly—both the sentiment, and Shane’s quiet, wondering tone. It almost felt like if either one of them spoke too loudly, they might wake up from their shared dream.

It was real, though. This was really happening. Something that the press of Shane’s erection against his own—the urgent heat at odds with the soft sweetness of his kiss a moment before—was making Brandon very, very aware of.

Intensely, wonderfully, vividly aware of.

A feeling of joyful elation bubbled
