Chapter 6

* * *

Justice finished stocking the cat food, a smile on his face despite the mundane task. He knew he'd probably look goofy to anybody who entered the store. After all, who frigging grins over a few cans of Friskies? He couldn't help himself, however. Ever since that first date with Ashton a week ago, Justice hadn't been able to hold in his happiness.

It wasn't as if anyone was around to see his display of goofiness. Besides Justice, the store was empty, the beautiful warm weather luring all would-be shoppers away. So when the bell on the front door dinged, it surprised him.

He rushed to the register to help, only to stop, a wider smile spreading out over his face when he found Ashton standing there, looking as hot as ever. He wore a pair of faded jeans that hugged his ass perfectly and short-sleeved, blue button up shirt. He leaned to the side, his hip pressed against the checkout counter, his hands in his front pockets.

As always, Justice's breath hitched as he took in the pure awesomeness of the other man. No better yet, his man. Even though it'd only been a week, Justice now fully accepted that Ashton's feelings ran just as intense.

"What brings you here today? Did you suddenly acquire a cat since I left you this morning?" Justice teased.

They spent almost every night at the hotel, always in the same room. During that short time, they'd learned nearly everything about each other. They'd also spent a good amount of time exploring each other's bodies. As a result, Justice now had every one of Ashton's erogenous zones burned into his memory. A new skill he hoped to put to use for a very long time.

Ashton's lips kicked up into such a lazy grin that it made Justice glad he wore his ugly, green work smock. Otherwise, the feeder rats in the tank a few feet away would have known how happy Justice felt at the moment.

"No cat, I promise you. I'm allergic," Ashton replied in the same teasing tone.

Justice nodded over to another tank, this one containing a gecko. "How about one of these little guys, then? You can snuggle up with it every night."

Ashton reached out and grabbed the front of Justice's shirt, pulling him in close. "You're the only one I want to snuggle."

Justice shot a glance through the large paned window, worry slicing through him. While various displays blocked most of the view, years of paranoia still left him leery. Ashton brushed the back of his knuckles against Justice's jawline.

"Easy, babe, it's just us, the rats, and the gecko," Ashton soothed. "I even had my driver park a couple of blocks away, so nobody passing by will see my car out front."

The term of endearment set Justice's heart pounding. Before he could worry himself out of it, he leaned in and pressed their lips together. As soon as the intoxicating taste of Ashton invaded his sense, Justice's fears flew out the front door.
