Chapter Eleven

In the end, they pushed and pulled and argued (politely, because they were still at the stage where they mostly wanted to get naked and get off every night and it was really hard to get mad at or disagree with the guy who had your dick in his mouth) their way to a compromise.

Tom refused to budge on increasing his exposure on campus and Reese was on lockdown on the need to be open about the two of them being together. But half an hour into the tenth rehash of the same argument in one week, on a library break between blowjobs and other naked playtime fun stuff, one of them, they couldn’t remember who later, said the one thing that unlocked the door to a different option.

Whoever it was who said it had just tossed his bag, heavy with books, onto the end of one of their beds before following it with a full-body flop and a loud groan.

“Thank God we live off campus and don’t have to deal with those assholes all the time.”

At which point someone had pulled the other person’s pants off and helped him forget the outside world with a blowjob. Now, sweat cooling on flushed skin, heartbeats returning to a slow and steady thump, the threat of losing the hottest fucking sex of his life because he wouldn’t walk across campus holding Reese’s hand hanging over his head…

He couldn’t do it. Wouldn’t walk on campus with…

Wait.

“We live off campus.”

Reese looked up from playing with the fine blond hairs on Tom’s fingers. His hair was a tangled mess, matted between his head and the pillow. He raised his eyebrows.

“Off campus.”

“And?”

“What if.” The butterflies in his stomach became kickboxers. “What if I was out, but only here?”

“Tell me more.” Reese squeezed Tom’s fingers between his own, their knuckles rubbing sharply against each other.

He was still figuring this out himself.

“Here. At Perkins. We could be more, I don’t know, like everyone else. Leave our door open when we study. Talk to our neighbors.”

“Hang out in the living room.” Reese got where he was heading with this.

Jesus. The idea of heading back to that room where everyone in the house had last watched him walk out hand-in-hand with Reese.

Fuck.

“Right. The living room. And we could be, you know.”

“Together.”

“Yeah. I could be out, here, and keep my head down on campus.”

“You know there’s no guarantee that someone here at Perkins wouldn’t take your picture, right? Sell it to a tabloid. You, hand-in-hand with your boyfriend.”

He knew that Reese said the word boyfriend with a curl of his lip and a lick of his tongue, like he wanted to make out with that word, every time. That’s what Tom knew.

“Yeah. But that’s already a risk. And nobody’s taken any naked pictures of me in the shower yet, so maybe I can try not to worry about that.”

“Except me.”

“What?”

“Nobody’s taken any naked pictures of you in the shower but me.”

“What?”

“I’m just saying.” The Groucho Marx eyebrow wiggle was a nice touch.
