hard to stop being dizzy when he couldn‟t focus his eyes on something

to halt the motion.

Ty began to chuckle, though the sound was an exhausted one.

“That‟ll learn ya,” he drawled, obviously pleased with himself.

Zane reached up to pet Ty‟s thigh and then splayed his hand in

the curve of Ty‟s elbow just below where he rested his head. Ty‟s arm

snaked around his shoulders and squeezed him tightly. He pressed a

kiss to Zane‟s forehead, then buried his nose in Zane‟s hair and inhaled

deeply.

“You know I don‟t care if you eat at that damn restaurant, right?”

Ty murmured, his voice low and affectionate and oddly gentle after

what they‟d just done.

Zane turned his chin enough to press a kiss against Ty‟s

collarbone as pleasant warmth filled him. “You know I‟ve never even

looked at him, right?”

Ty was silent for a long moment. Finally he turned his head and

said, “Appropriate time for a blind joke here, or is it too soon?”

Zane snickered and jabbed at Ty‟s ribs. “Jerk.”

Ty laughed quietly, the sound warm and reassuring, as he nuzzled

his nose into Zane‟s hair again. When the laughter ebbed, Zane realized

Ty was holding his breath, and something about the slight tremble to

Ty‟s body made Zane feel that Ty wanted to speak again. It wasn‟t the

first time Zane had noticed it, and suddenly Zane realized what Ty was

keeping himself from saying in moments like this:

I love you.

Zane squeezed his eyes shut and kissed Ty‟s shoulder again,

resisting the urge to crawl into Ty‟s lap and do whatever he had to in

order to get Ty to say it again. He wanted to hear it again, just once,

after all these weeks, now that it meant so much more, now that Zane

had acknowledged to himself that he knew what the leaden weight in

his chest was. Now that he might be able to believe what he felt for Ty

was real and not just a result of circumstance and proximity. Now that

Zane needed courage he couldn‟t quite find to take that final step and

deliberately fall.
