Robin

Idiot.

Idiot, idiot, idiot.

What the hell had Robin been thinking? Clearly, he hadn’t been thinking at all.

A scalding hot shower had helped him get out of his damn head a little. But then Dair had also showered and put on a brand-new pair of jeans that clung sinfully to his ass as well as a crisp white shirt that made his tanned skin glow. Robin had never seen him clean-shaven – or even with a haircut – so to see him looking positively dapper made Robin’s heart all but stop.

Now here he was in the back of Jay’s car, squished between Emery and Dair, holding hands with Dair to keep up their ruse. Ava was in the front seat. She’d offered it to Dair, but he’d replied that he wanted to sit next to Robin.

It was like he was purposefully torturing him.

Did he get he was killing Robin with all this affection? Of course not. He had no idea that Robin’s crush was becoming dangerously worse, pushing at the lid of the box he’d kept in his chest for the past couple of months.

This wasn’t some silly infatuation. Those were built on ideas of people, not actual relationships.

What he was currently experiencing were real, gut-wrenching feelings. Robin ached physically for Dair when he wasn’t around. The sound of his voice sent shivers down his spine, no matter how mundane the topic of conversation was. And his touch? Jesus fucking Christ, Robin couldn’t take it anymore.

He’d never been held by a man like that in his life. Not by any of his lovers and certainly not by Mac. And all that talk about how sexy he was? Robin felt like he was going to break apart, just replaying it to himself in the back of the car.

He felt Dair’s thumb rubbing the back of his hand, so he looked over. It was only because Robin and Emery were so small that the three of them had fit into the back of Jay’s Ford Fiesta. Dair was taking up half the room himself and his body was pressed right up against Robin’s. When Robin met his gaze, Dair raised his eyebrows, asking that same silent question he’d asked several times since Robin had sprung away from him on the bed.

‘What’s wrong?’

Robin smiled and patted his thigh with his free hand. ‘I’m fine.’

If he said it enough times, he might very well start to believe it.

“What time does the tennis match start?” Emery asked, not lifting his gaze from his phone.

Jay huffed from the front seat. “It’s a basketball game between the current team and as many of the team from our class as we could convince to play.”

“Oh, honey. I heard ‘men in shorts’ and I was there. I have no interest in what kind of ball it is.” He smirked to himself. “You know, not those kinds of balls, anyway.”

Ava snorted while Jay huffed. He wasn’t drinking tonight, hence him playing chauffeur for the evening. Even though he’d been taking it easy
