Jeremy gritted his teeth to hide a gasp. His smile wobbled and he dipped his head. Trace was too good to be true. No way could he actually care. Guys didn’t show such emotions or worry about Jeremy. He always served as a quickie and a play toy, not a long-term commitment. Maybe Trace was different—he said he wanted to go to the opening. Jeremy sure as hell hoped whatever they shared was something more than a simple affair.

Might as well finish the story.

“I knew since I was a kid I was gay. To medicate myself against my past, I cruised.” His voice caught. “The emotions got channeled into the artwork and I escaped through sex. I knew what I liked, but not who I liked.”

“And you like me?” Trace cupped side of Jeremy’s face. The touch sent tingles through his system.

“I do.” He barely recognized the gravelly sound in his voice.

The dim light sparkled in Trace’s eyes. “Good to know. I’m falling for you, too.”

“You’re not turned off? The tats, the piercing, the crazy-ass hair doesn’t bother you? My past isn’t stellar and I’ve made some stupid decisions. I’m clean, but not sparkling clean.” He blinked back tears. Memories flooded back, of the lovers who’d used him for a punching bag, the risky nightclubbing when he’d ended up in the hospital, knowing he deserved better but unsure of how to get better. The tattoos covered up the scars caused by the abuse. His stomach soured and embarrassment washed over him. Why the hell did he have to be so damned emotional anyway?

“Forget what I said.” He opened his eyes and turned to leave the bed.

“Wait.” Trace grabbed his wrist. “I’m not turned off at all. We’ve both got things in our past that we’d rather delete, but mine have made me stronger. You’re stronger and colorful, too.” He gathered him to his chest and settled on the pillows. “Stay with me tonight. Sleep and forget about your worries for now. We’ll work things out in the morning.” He snorted. “I don’t give up easily. Remember? I’m an air traffic controller. I get paid to put the pieces together and I’d like to be the one who stands beside you.”

Jeremy closed his eyes and nuzzled Trace’s neck. For the first time in a long while, his mind eased. Trace could still run out in the middle of the night when he found out the true extent of his past, but down in his gut, Jeremy didn’t believe that. No, this was something that could last. He wanted it to last.

He wanted Trace.
