Chapter Eight

Brandon woke to the smell of coffee and a familiar female voice somewhere on the floor below him. He rolled onto his side and opened his eyes to find himself in a bed he didn’t recognize, in a bedroom that wasn’t his own. Memories returned a moment later. Of Luke in the restaurant, on the staircase, beside him under the sheets. He smiled and sat up, rubbing his bedhead into a slightly less offensive haircut.

As he climbed out of bed and began gathering clothes, he discovered a problem. In their rush last night, Luke had managed to tear Brandon’s shirt and pants, leaving large areas of flesh exposed. If he was just sitting to breakfast with Luke, it wouldn’t be an issue—hell, it’d be a turn on—but that was definitely Delilah he heard downstairs.

Across the room was a closed door that Brandon hoped was a bathroom, complete with a bathrobe. He got lucky and found two robes, and grabbed the smaller, pulling it over his shredded clothes and tying it tight at his waist.

“That’ll do,” he muttered, before heading down the stairs.

Luke and Delilah were on the sofa, watching a rerun of an old soap, take-out coffees in hand. They turned as one as he appeared and Delilah grinned wide.

“There he is!”

For a moment Luke’s expression was unreadable, but it was soon replaced with a very genuine smile. “Hey.”

“Hey.” Brandon joined them on the sofa and found a third coffee waiting for him. “Hope you don’t mind about the robe. My clothes aren’t up to receiving guests,” he added with a raised eyebrow aimed at Luke.

Luke chuckled and shook his head. “No worries. Besides, it’s not mine anyway.”

Brandon frowned, then swore softly. “The ex’s. Sorry, I didn’t know.”

“It’s fine, really. I guess I forgot to throw it in the box.”

He nodded, then stood. “Be right back.”

He headed up to the bathroom and switched out for the other robe, tossing the ex’s over the back of the door. He could tell Luke wasn’t as happy as he’d made out, and Brandon understood entirely. After a bad breakup, the fewer reminders of the ex, the better. He jogged back down the stairs in the larger robe, then twirled once.

“Better?”

Luke laughed and nodded. “You really didn’t have to, though.”

“Yeah, I did.”

He smiled. “Thanks.”

“I prefer this one,” Delilah said. “Especially since on your spin I got a good look at your ass through your pants.”

Brandon colored. “Okay, so the twirl wasn’t the smartest thing to do.”

“I disagree,” she said with a wink. “Now come sit down and tell me disgusting things about last night. Luke ain’t playing fair.”

“You’re a pervert, Dee,” Luke said.

“Oh, please,” she said, rolling her eyes. “You spent the night together, and Brandon’s clothes are torn in very interesting areas. You did the nasty at least once.”

Brandon sat beside her and nudged her with his elbow. “Shush.”

“You two are no fun. Real friends would tell all, then supply a high def video.”

“Then we’re terrible, terrible friends. What brings you here so early, anyway, other than wanting free porn?”

“That’s not enough?” Delilah shrugged.
