The excited buzz filling The Watering Hole was Tristan’s first hint that something was going on. His belly contracted when he scanned the interior and spotted James and Crazyknot sitting with Izzy and the others.

“What the hell are they doing here?” Carter muttered as they made their way across the bar.

“Looks like you have competition,” Hunter told him with a grin.

Carter rolled his eyes.

Tristan nodded a greeting at the other members of Crazyknot while Roman made introductions. He sat across from James and met his gaze.

The slight flush reddening James’s ears and the way he licked his lips told Tristan he was as hyperaware of Tristan as he was of him. Alas, neither of them could do anything about the electricity sparking between them, especially after a queue of autograph seekers formed at their table.

“Ten bucks says this is going to be all over tomorrow’s local papers,” Nathan drawled when the last of them left.

“It’s already on social media.” Sam was scrolling through her phone.

“How come they aren’t asking you for your autograph?” Hugo asked Carter curiously.

Carter grimaced. “You forget I grew up here. Besides, half these people saw me run naked down Main Street when I was ten.”

Elijah’s eyes rounded. “You ran naked down Main Street?!”

Tristan smiled in his beer as he recalled the incident. They’d stood outside Hunter’s dad’s hardware store and spurred Carter on.

Carter shrugged. “I lost a bet to Hunter.”

Hunter grinned. “I still can’t believe you couldn’t get a kiss out of Daisy Dickson.”

Carter narrowed his eyes. “Yeah, well, not everyone is sensitive to my charms.”

“Daisy Dickson is gay,” Sam said bluntly.

Shocked inhales erupted around the tables.

“No way.” Hunter stared. “But—she went out with half the guys on the baseball team in high school!”

Sam shrugged. “Well, she evidently decided dicks weren’t her thing.”

Carter turned an inquisitive eye on Hugo and the rest of Crazyknot. “What brings you guys here, anyway? This place is not your normal Saturday night scene.”

James and Roman stiffened a little.

Drake shared a guarded look with Tristan.

“We missed Roman, so we decided to visit,” Kurt said lightly.

Tristan took a leisurely swig of his drink. “So, have you seen the place Roman bought?”

Drake flashed him a grateful look for steering the conversation in a safe direction. Alex and Finn turned up, adding to the distraction.

Tristan watched as James excused himself and disappeared in the direction of the restroom a short while later. He waited a couple of minutes before slipping away into the crowd.

James was washing his hands when Tristan entered the restroom. His eyes widened in the reflection in the mirror. Tristan looked around.

Two of the cubicles were occupied.

He waited until James hastily dried his hands before taking him by the wrist and guiding him silently out of the restroom.

“Where—where are we going?” James asked in a breathless voice in the corridor outside.

Tristan flashed him a heated look. “Somewhere no one will see us.”

James flushed, his body almost vibrating with excitement.

Tristan exited the bar through a back door, skirted the building to the parking lot at the side, and hustled James inside the back of his pickup.
