I’ll take his word for it. I’m one hundred per cent sure I’d have been too terrified to perform.
“Are you a morning person or a night owl?” he asks.
“A morning person.”
“Me too,” he says gleefully.
I smile so wide my cheeks hurt.
“Morning is the best time to run.”
I grimace. “I’ll pass on that.”
“Aww, you don’t know what you’re missing out on. Getting your blood pumping is a good way to start the day.”
I kiss his collarbone. “I can think of other ways to get your blood pumping in the morning.”
He lets out a dirty laugh. “Is that an offer?”
“You offered to suck my cock.”
“Yes, and I’m going to make good on that, I promise. When we’ve had a bit more recovery time.” He nudges me, encouraging me to lift my head to kiss him.
I do so happily. “I think I’ll need longer to recover than you.”
He knits his brows. “Why? Oh! Because you’re so much older than me,” he says dramatically and swats me playfully over the chest. “Give over.”
I chuckle, kiss him, and settle my head on his chest, my ear pressed over his heart. “What did you read at university?”
“Sports science.”
“So why are you a bartender?”
“I’ve worked there part-time since my first year to pay for books and things. Right now, I’m full-time, but only until I find a job in the sports industry.”
“What kind of job?”
“I’d like to be a fitness centre manager, preferably at a local authority-run sports centre. Those positions don’t come up often, so it’s a waiting game. I teach a cycling proficiency course at my local sports centre every Saturday morning. Well, most Saturday mornings. I have to give my apologies some weeks so I can compete.”
“In triathlons?”
“Yes.”
“Wow.”
“It’s not that impressive.”
I look up and cup his jaw. “You keep saying that, but it is, Archer.You’reimpressive.”
He blushes. “You’re sweet.”
I kiss him hard.
“Sweet and sexy. What a perfect combination,” he says.
I kiss him again. And again. I’d kiss him all night if I could, except the condom is irritating my cock. I should have taken it off sooner.
“Where’s your bathroom? I need to get rid of the condom.”
