Bastian groaned then pulled away.
Immediately Hudson opened his eyes.
“Take my boots off, please.”
In a rush, Hudson fumbled around until he was able to get Bastian’s boots, socks, and jeans off. Bastian offered Hudson his hand.
He was shocked by the strength Bastian showed lifting him off the floor.
“My turn,” Bastian told him with a wink. Slowly he undressed Hudson until he too stood bared for Bastian’s eyes.
Bastian walked behind him then pulled Hudson back against his chest. “You are gorgeous, Hudson.”
He shivered from the need he could hear in Bastian’s voice.
Bastian ran one hand down his chest while kissing the side of his neck. “Will you lie face down on the bed for me. “I want to worship your amazing ass.”
“I do a lot of squats.” Oh! Why did he just say that? How humiliating.
“My new goal in life is to watch you work out. This is something I need to see.”
He was relieved that Bastian just rolled with his silly words. “You would probably distract me.”
“I promise I can be very discreet.”
Hudson laughed. “I don’t think I’d be able to ignore you in the gym with me.”
“You’d be surprised.” Bastian nudged him toward the bed.
Yeah, Hudson was supposed to be lying down.
“Nervous?” Bastian asked quietly.
“A little,” Hudson confessed.
“It’s okay to be nervous,” Bastian said. “It’s even okay to change your mind.”
“No!” He whirled around. “I haven’t changed my mind.”
“I know. I’m just reminding you.”
Hudson nodded.
“Now give me a kiss,” Bastian demanded.
He kissed Bastian before he was walking backwards at Bastian’s silent urging. The mattress hit the backs of his knees and Hudson gripped Bastian’s shoulders until the kiss ended.
Hudson sat on the mattress then crawled up to the bed.
“I’m going to eat you up,” Bastian promised. He sounded like he was rummaging in something.
And it did sound like a promise. He’d lowered himself as the bed dipped behind him.
Bastian scooted up between his legs before dropping a bottle of lube and condom beside Hudson’s arm.
With a smile, Hudson turned his head to bury his face in his folded arms.
“Such a strong back.” Bastian rubbed Hudson’s muscles. “You could probably carry the entire world on your back, and I’ll be here every night to make sure you know that I’ll also look after you.”
