Chapter 15

ISAAC WORE a navy blue jacket with red sleeves—the official Team USA jacket that was part of his medal ceremony uniform—over a USA T-shirt and a pair of black warm-up pants. Tim wondered if Isaac’s whole wardrobe had been supplied by the USOC. Tim had a similar pile of clothing he’d been issued at athlete check-in, which happened shortly before he flew to Madrid. And just in case any athlete thought he didn’t have enough USA garb, there was more available at the America House shop.

Tim didn’t hate all the free stuff. Everything was custom-made. His dive suits had been made to his body’s exact specifications, in part to prevent wardrobe malfunctions.

But it was funny to watch Isaac, a guy who probably didn’t have a whole lot of patriotic zeal, slide off the jacket and tug at the hem of his star-spangled T-shirt.

“So, before we get down to business…,” Isaac said. He waggled his eyebrows and paused for Tim to take in his meaning. “I have a favor to ask.”

“All right.”

“My hair’s growing back. On my body, I mean. It’s sort of patchy, and just in a few spots. There’s a woman on staff who does waxing, but I only need some touch-ups. When Luke and I roomed together, we used to shave the hard-to-reach places for each other, but he’s busy fooling around with Katie, so I wondered if you could help me.”

“You want me to shave you?”

“Yeah. A little.”

Shaving Isaac felt like a new level of intimacy, although he’d had Isaac’s come smeared into his skin the night before, so maybe they’d crossed that threshold anyway. The idea of shaving Isaac excited Tim. “Yeah, okay.”

“Good.” Isaac reached for the hem of his T-shirt.

But Tim stopped him. He was revved up from the adrenaline of watching Isaac win and from the crazy kiss outside the Aquatics Center, and he’d been thinking about that chest all evening. “Let me.”

Isaac smiled. “All right.”

Tim stepped toward Isaac. He ran his hands under Isaac’s T-shirt, over Isaac’s abs and pecs, touching all that soft skin before he revealed it. Isaac’s chest was still smooth, making Tim wonder which parts of his body needed shaving, but he savored the feel of that skin under his hands before he pulled—with some effort—Isaac’s shirt off over his head.

“You’re really tall,” Tim said.

“That’s the rumor.”

Tim pressed his hands into Isaac’s back and leaned in to plant kisses along his collarbone. Isaac threw his head back and put his long arms around Tim. He said, “Mmm. But there are more important matters at hand.”

“What do you need shaved?”

“Well, let’s take a look. The lighting is better in the bathroom.”

Isaac led the way into the small room. He flipped the switch and gestured toward the razor and shaving cream he’d left on the counter. “It’s mostly my legs and arms,” Isaac said.

“Okay. I’ve never shaved another person before.”

“You’ve shaved your own face and chest, though, right?”

“Yeah.”

“Same idea. Try not to nick me.”

Isaac pulled off his warm-up pants, leaving him standing there in a pair of blue briefs.
