Chapter Thirteen

The next couple of days were rough. Aiden was moody and irritable, snapping at Keaton whenever Keaton tried to make conversation. He couldn’t sleep and threw up everything he ate—discreetly; he didn’t want Keaton to catch him in such a vulnerable state again.

He waited for Keaton to get fed up, snap, punish him. It didn’t happen.

“I rented a couple of movies if you’re interested,” Keaton said on Saturday night.

“I’m not,” Aiden said.

“Okay then. Do you mind giving me a hand with dinner?”

“I’ve got some stuff to do. I’m not eating, anyway.”

“You sure? Homemade pizza. My specialty.”

Aiden wrinkled his nose. “Yuck.”

Keaton stood in the foyer, sorting through the day’s mail. “One of my students is making a ceramic pizza for her final project. It’s pretty cool looking.”

“Why do you teach at a community college?”

Keaton looked up. “What do you mean?”

“Are you not qualified to teach at a real school?” Aiden asked nastily.

Keaton looked more surprised than offended. “I guess I fail to see how community college isn’t a ‘real school.’ Part of the reason is that the job was available—it’s tough to find work in this economy. You’ve got to take what you can get. Also, major universities tend to breed a lot of departmental politics. I feel like I deal less with the political side of academia at Florence.”

Aiden wasn’t sure how to respond in a way that would provoke Keaton. He flopped back on the couch, letting his legs sprawl open. “I fucked a college professor once. Not one of my professors, I mean. But he taught somewhere near here, and he was in town for the weekend. He wanted me to pretend I was a student. Are you into schoolboy scenes?”

“Can’t say I am.” Keaton tossed an envelope onto the side table.

“Have you fucked a lot of guys?”

Keaton looked pointedly at Aiden. “That’s really not your business.”

“Just asking.”

“I’m going to go start dinner. You’re welcome to help.”

“Why should I help with something I’m not going to be able to eat without getting sick?” Aiden complained. “Then when I puke, I’ll have to worry about you barging into the bathroom and watching me.”

“Settle down.” Keaton started toward the kitchen.

“Make me,” Aiden said.

Keaton stopped, turned.

Aiden’s heart pounded, but he pressed on. “Fucking make me settle down.”

“Aiden,” Keaton said quietly.

“Keaton,” Aiden mocked.

“I’m not going to ‘make you’ settle down.”

“Why not? Because I ‘need time to heal’? Or because you don’t know how to be a goddamn top?”

Keaton looked like he was trying to hide a smile, which infuriated Aiden further. “Well, here’s the truth—there’s nothing you could do that would make me behave. I can take a lot of pain. You’d have to beat the complete shit out of me to get me to do anything.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes,” Aiden snapped.

“Well, I’m certainly not going to do that.” Keaton turned again to leave.

Aiden walked to the foyer table, grabbed the twigs out of Keaton’s spiral vase, and hurled them at Keaton. They landed on the floor between them.

Keaton paused.

Aiden waited, chin lifted defiantly.
