A lot of the tension between me and Felix starts to ease up, and I’m grateful. It means I don’t have to find excuses to run into him or start up a conversation, and the guy I get to see is the one he is for everyone else. It’s nice to know the barriers between us are gone.

Especially during times like last night where he plonked down beside me on the couch and watched TV practically attached to my side. If Felix has a love language, I’ve found it. Between how he is with Brady normally and how he’s been with me the past few days, he loves to be touched.

And I’m only too happy to touch him.

But that’s all I’ll let myself do. Surprisingly, Felix hasn’t mentioned sex again or even tried to hit on me, and I’m glad for it. I want him, so fucking badly, but I’m also not going to go for it when sex isn’t all I want. I’m worried if we cross that line again before I get a chance to show him how I feel that he might close off like he did last time.

I’ve seen what he thinks of himself, and I don’t want a part in validating those thoughts. Not when he’s so goddamn incredible to me.

When the door to the vet’s opens and Felix steps out, my whole being lights up. It takes him a second to notice me, and I use that entire second to drink him in, from his copper curls to his strong jaw that he hasn’t shaved today to his long, lean arms that lead down to slender wrists, ringed by beaded bracelets.

“Hey,” he says, approaching. His work shirt is pale blue and matches his eyes.

“Hi.” I hold out his smoothie. “It’s watermelon.”

“My favorite.”

“I know.”

He eyes me, smile struggling to break free. “Someone looks proud of himself.”

“Someone pays attention.”

“Hmm.” His stare is shrewd as he takes a long sip, then starts us on our walk home.

My gaze rests on his pink lips. The way they wrap around the straw and how his tongue gently swipes them once he’s done.

I’m not used to this kind of lust. The kind where I know what he tastes like. Am dying for it again. Can’t stop wondering what that watermelon flavor would taste like on his lips. My cock makes its presence known at the thought, but I’m determined to be good.

Ignore it.

Which is way, way harder than I thought it’d be, given I’ve managed to go twenty-one years without.

I force my attention away, and it lands on the bracelets again.

“Those are nice,” I say, reaching over to brush my fingers against the beads. “Where’d you get them?”

“My dad. He likes building stuff and making things out of wood.”

“That’s really cool.”

He hums and shakes his wrist out. “I thought so. He could have bought them, but he chose to make them instead. I liked that.”

“It makes them more special.”

“Exactly.” His face lights up with a smile. “The big one he carved with the letters of our first names.
