This place was nice.

Really nice.

I mean, I’d lived in dumps my whole life, and Eli’s pad was beyond dope. It was like something from an architectural magazine, it belonged on a show or in a book for interior designers.

But this place?

Didn’t have walls or a roof.

If anything, it had a sky that was always the same color, between dark and light, it was rarely cold, and it was just perfect because I was at one with nature.

All my life, I’d lived in cities, and I’d had to move from place to place, not just because I was on the run, but because that was the traveler life.

To think that I could stay in the same place and end my nomadic lifestyle was so overwhelming that at times, I’d just reach for Austin and have him hold me tight.

That was a constant too. Just as the light never changed and the temperature stayed perfect at all times, he was there.

At my side.

Of course, it fit that when I rolled over after having a nap, he wasn’t there.

When my hand reached out, patting beside me where he’d been earlier, our legs tangled together, our upper bodies curved into each other, and I found him absent, my eyes popped open in surprise.

Not distress, because I knew he’d be near, but just shock.

He was turning into my second skin, and I liked that.

In fact, the verb ‘like’ didn’t describe how wonderful it was to have him so close to me.

Maybe, over a lifetime, it’d get tiring, but it surprised me how much I loved it now.

After so many years of being alone, of dealing with the pitfalls and surges of life by myself, to have him here? To know he was going through this with me, loving it and getting to know me at the same time?

Heaven.

Truly.

I figured that we’d been here at least five days by this point. Or, however time was measured in this place.

I hoped that when I returned to the regular place where Eli and Ethan were waiting on me, that barely a minute had passed, because I didn’t want them to be worrying about me. I didn’t want their concern. All while I loved the time this was giving me with Austin, my most vulnerable of mates.

He wasn’t like Eli, so sure in his position, and he was utterly unlike Ethan, so confident in his strength, so controlled at all times.

He wasn’t lesser, like he feared. He was just different. And I wanted the chance to explore those differences and come to love him for who he was.

What he was.

So, after five days of being naked, of being with him, of us learning each other, I’d admit I was turning into a glutton, wanting more and more.

This place made me feel like we were Adam and Eve or something, amid the trees, a pool here to drink from and bathe in, with anything we required just a wish away.

I’d admit to shifting only to go to the bathroom, because
