“I don’t know.” I push against the dirt with the heel of my boot. “Because we were both horny, I guess. We were all alone, and it just happened.”
“What if it was us out there alone?”
“Us?”
“Yeah. What if you hadn’t been paired with Diego? What if it was you and me in the woods? Would you have offered me the same thing?”
“Em, you’re my friend?—”
“I’m not asking as your friend,” he says, cutting me off. “I’m asking as a man who hasn’t gotten off in weeks. Would you?” He finally looks at me, his blue eyes boring into me.
“I don’t think so,” I say, my mind racing. “No.”
“Ouch,” he says with a weak smile. “I’m insulted. Is it because Diego has a bigger dick?”
“What? No. Of course not.”
“Then why? What’s the difference?”
“Jesus, Em, you’re my friend.” I rub the back of my neck.
“Did you like it?”
I can feel my cheeks getting hot. “It doesn’t matter.”
“I wanna know, Adrian. Did you like sucking his dick?”
“Yes,” I whisper to the fire. “I did. I loved it.”
Emilio nods slowly. Then he gets up and comes over to my log, sitting so close our shoulders are touching. I can smell the smoke from the fire on his uniform.
“I’ve never done anything like that with a guy,” he says quietly. “Never even thought about it.” He pauses. “But when I saw you… on your knees like that… I don’t know, man. I couldn’t look away.”
My heart starts beating faster. “What?” He’s sitting so close to me. I can feel the warmth radiating from him.
“It was… hot.” He says it like he’s surprised himself. “Seeing how hungry you were for it. The sounds you were making.” He turns his head, and our faces are only inches apart. Those full lips of his are so close I could lean in and?—
“What are you saying, Em?”
The fire pops, sending a shower of sparks into the dark sky.
“Show me,” he whispers. He puts a hand on my leg, and my dick responds instantly. “Show me what you did for him.”
“Em,” I breathe. “Someone could see.”
“Buck told me to keep an eye on you. To make sure you don’t do anything else stupid.” His hand slides higher up my thigh. “So I am. I’m keeping an eye on you.”
His thumb rubs my inseam, back and forth, dangerously close to my hardening cock. “We can go into the woods. I know a spot. No one will see.”
“We shouldn’t.”
“You liked it, didn’t you? You told me you did. Don’t you want to do it again?” His fingers brush against my balls, and I let out a shaky breath. “Don’t you want to do it withme?”
I’m torn. This is Emilio. My friend. The guy I’ve told things I haven’t told anyone else in this unit. Doing this with him feels different. More intimate. More dangerous. Buck’s warning echoes in my ears.
“Please, Adrian,” he whispers. “I’m sofuckinghard right now.” He takes my hand and presses it against the front of his pants. I can feel the long, hard ridge of his cock straining against the fabric, the heat of it seeping through.
That’s it. That’s the last bit of resistance I have. The feeling of another hard dick in my palm, my friend’s dick, is too much to fight. The hunger roars back to life inside me.
