RESILIENCE

Bailey Bradford

Adam sat up so fast his head smacked Todd’s chin. Todd rocked back and landed on

his ass. Since he hadn’t let go of Adam, he brought Adam with him, and in seconds Todd was on the floor with his lover sprawled on top of him. Between Adam’s elbows and hands, Todd thought he might end up with some fractured ribs, but Adam wasn’t about to let

anyone else help him up.

“Get back,” he snapped, and Todd saw a very naked Gabe shrink back. Todd felt bad

and started to speak but Adam cut him off. “Oh, get that look off your face. You’re naked and your junk is flopping, and I don’t want my eye put out with that…fucking baseball bat.”

Todd had to admit Gabe was rather…large. He helped Adam up while Gabe darted off,

one hand kind of cupping his cock and the other splayed over his ass.

“He really needs both hands for his dick,” Aidan said.

“Mika is big—er,” Zane blushed furiously and started shaking his head. “Sorry! Uh, I’ll just… I’ll just go…hide—”

“I don’t think so,” Aidan growled, but he didn’t really sound mad. Not at Zane at least.

“We have to sit down, all of us, and hash this out.” Aidan turned his commanding gaze on Todd and Adam. “I am going to have to trust that Gabe’s faith in you two wasn’t misplaced.”

As hurt as Todd was, and as freaked out, he could kind of understand. Well, not really.

He’d never, ever do anything to put his friends at risk, so yeah. But was it fair of him to be a jerk in return without hearing Gabe’s side of it? No.

Todd looked over to find Adam studying him, patience and love shining in his brown

eyes. It eased the ache in his heart and settled the freak-out he was barely containing, seeing that look. Todd knew Adam was waiting for him, willing to go with whatever Todd decided.

Then Adam smiled, just a hint of a smile, really, and Todd held out his hand to him.

Gabe came back into the room, covered up almost completely despite the warm weather. He was wearing socks, jeans, and a long-sleeved shirt, as if trying to keep as much of himself hidden away—probably for his sake, Todd realised. And he saw in Gabe’s eyes a look similar to Adam’s, on a different level, though. This one silently promised friendship and

acceptance, and the sorrow tingeing Gabe’s expression was almost tangible.

Todd stood up and felt even better when Adam nestled up to his side. He nodded at

Gabe, even though he was speaking to Aidan, he supposed. “Gabe’s trust wasn’t misplaced at all.” Then he couldn’t hold back a snort. “He just scared the hell out of me.”
