Chapter Seven

Zachary made coffee and Dane turned a couple of steaks in the pan. He glanced at Zachary. “What do you do in the day, Zachary? I thought I’d see you today sometime before you started the garden work.”

Zachary set the kettle of boiled water down. “I have another job. It’s in town.”

Dane frowned. “You work all day and night?” At least this answered some of Dane’s curiosity.

Zachary shook his head. “Not all day or all night, just parts of each. The day job is easy. I’m still for that.” He brought plates to the counter.

Dane flipped the steaks onto a plate and cracked a couple of eggs into the pan.

“Still, you mean it’s a sedentary job?”

Zachary gave a short nod. He brought the bread from the box.

“Zachary, can I ask you how old you are?”

Dane caught Zachary’s hesitation, before he asked, “How old are you, Dane?”

Dane studied Zachary as he answered. “Thirty, nearly thirty-one.”

Zachary didn’t hesitate this time. “We’re the same age, Dane. I like that.”

Dane put the steaks on the bread and slid a fried egg onto each, and Zachary popped another slice on top to make the sandwiches. He smiled. “Sometimes, you seem younger so happy, enthusiastic. I like that.”

Zachary didn’t comment. He carried the plates to the table and Dane brought the coffee.

Sitting with Zachary as they ate, Dane thought he hadn’t ever felt as happy. Good thing Jeremy jilted me. He smiled at the thought.

“Will you go back out to the garden tonight?” He hoped Zachary would give it a miss and they could spend time together.

“I think the garden can do without me tonight.” Zachary leaned to Dane and placed a kiss on his lips.

Sometimes in the next weeks, Dane wondered why Zachary was always gone from his bed every afternoon without him noticing, and why he never saw Zachary arrive to work in the garden at night. He often went to find Zachary among the shrubs and small trees that Zachary pruned and readied for spring. He adored Zachary and left the questions unanswered. When it poured with rain, as it often did, they spent time together.

They ate together, watched the televised ice hockey season, and listened to music, but they also made love. Dane knew it was love. It started out as hot sex and then became loving hot sex.

Dane’s vacation flew by. Two weeks of it remained.

Zachary kissed Dane softly. He pressed his cock against Dane’s erection as he wrapped his hands around both. He teased at Dane’s lips with his teeth and then slid his tongue along Dane’s.

Dane’s cock reacted to the pressure of Zachary’s dick and leaked pre-cum. Dane’s ass clenched and his stomach tightened. He returned Zachary’s kiss and murmured his pleasure. “I’ll never get enough of you. I love you. You must know that.”

They stood clasped together in the bathroom. It wasn’t often Dane showered alone now.

Zachary’s breath mingled with his as they rested their faces together. “And I love you.”

Dane swept his hands down Zachary’s damp skin.
