I’ll be over in an hour. Get that dick ready ??
My dick is always ready for you ??
Yeah, we’d moved on to mutual emoji usage, which felt like a very casual step. My dick was molten lava levels of hot thinking about getting some sexy time with Wrex. I quickly powered down my Switch and decided to take a quick shower to prepare for his arrival. Thoughts of Wrex wrapped around my dick in a multitude of ways kept me hard through my shower and then subsequently made it a lot harder to put underwear on after.
I briefly toyed with the idea of not wearing anything since it wasn’t like it was a big secret what we were about to do, but I decided to put on a pair of boxer briefs. Just the boxer briefs. My dick stirred thinking about Wrex’s reaction to it.
Sitting back down on the couch while I waited, I scoffed at myself mentally. Why was I continually flip-flopping on whether or not I was developing feelings for Wrex? Yeah, I liked the guy. He seemed to really like me. But being alone when I craved time to myself…I couldn’t put a price on it. Even if we did end up starting something, we would have to go at a literal glacial pace. Of course, all ofthis was assuming Wrex would be willing to do so.
Whatever. We weren’t hurting anyone. I felt like a rollercoaster that was constantly tossing and turning on what they wanted or thought they wanted, but I figured that was normal after everything I’d been through. Maybe it would be weirder if my head wasn’t constantly up and down about everything.
It was futile to tell myself not to worry about it anymore. I was going to have random bursts of doubt and flashes of yearning. I felt like that came with getting close to someone, even if you’d both agreed that it was just sex. What I wanted was to just enjoy the ride and try my best to just be present.
And if it turned out that I was developing feelings for Wrex, I’d just talk to him. We had such an open dialogue that I didn’t think he’d shun me. Sure, it might be awkward as hell to hear that Wrex didn’t want any sort of romantic entanglement with me, with a human, but I was a big boy. I could handle.
That wasn’t to say I was falling for Wrex. I was just acutely aware that feelings were definitely present and I needed to acknowledge them so that I could further assess whether or not said feelings would or could damage what Wrex and I were doing.
I shook myself mentally. Why the fuck was I worrying about shit when Wrex was on his way to bounce on my cock? I checked my phone, realizing that more time than I’d been expecting had passed, supporting my mental acrobatics.
Waiting for Wrex turned to slight worry when he didn’t show up an hour and a half later.Traffic could’ve held him up, I said to myself. Hell, maybe he wanted to shower at his place and he’d taken longer. A lot of things could have been keeping him. But with petrylle disappearing…
After two hours since his last text went by, I was starting to freak out. I frantically called him several times, but everything went to voicemail. Next thingI knew, I was throwing on clothes and dialing Wrage’s number.
“Wallace?”
“Hey, sorry to bother you but have you heard from Wrex?”
“He left hours ago, I assumed he was meeting with you.” Alarm was woven into Wrage’s next words and I shuddered when he finally spoke. “He hasn’t showed up?”
“No,” I stated, my tongue feeling like a lead weight in my mouth as I spoke. “No, he hasn’t.”
Chapter 22
I didn’t getmuch sleep that night.
Following the panic that had stuck with me since Wrex failed to show up at my condo, I hadn’t known what in the hell to do. The entire next day was spent working with Wrage to figure out how the hell someone had managed to subdue Wrex.
We’d traced his steps from the time he’d left his family home and gotten on the bus to head to my place. Public transportation was readily available in the city and Wrage told me that his brother used it often enough without a single problem.
Until now.
Telling the board about Wrex’s disappearance proved to be harder than I would have thought. Naturally, they were appalled that Wrex had been taken, but I’d had to describe to them that he’d been expected at my place, which was less than pleasant to talk about. It wasn’t that I was ashamed of what Wrex and I had been doing, but having to divulge that we’d been fucking on the regular was an awkward conversation I never thought I’d be having.
We’d spent the day searching the area between Wrex’s family home and my condo, talking to anyone and everyone who would give us the time of day.After trying to see if there was anything that could lead us to who could have taken him, we’d brainstormed back at the office to comb through all the information we’d collected.
Long story short, we had nothing. No one had seen Wrex or anyone suspicious looking that could have led us to where he could’ve been. We’d even managed to get Hudson over to go over things, just to see if we’d missed anything. The helpful detective had even taken to the streets himself to ask questions of the people in the area, but he’d turned up nothing more than we had.
I’d ended up sending the rest of the board home when five hit, but Wrage had decided to stay at the office with me and Hudson. After mulling over the lack of evidence we had, I flopped back in my chair, exhaling in a long drawn out sigh.
“There’s nothing to go off of,” I muttered to no one in particular. “This feels hopeless.”
“We’ll find him, Wallace.” Wrage assured me, standing before the whiteboard we’d written all the connecting pieces about the missing petrylle on and putting his hands on his hips. “We have to.”
“I agree that it’s not much to go off of.” Hudson nodded, sighing as he walked over and stood next to Wrage and the whiteboard. “No witnesses to the kidnapping, nothing caught on any recorded footage within the surrounding area. It’s not much at all.”
Sighing again, I looked over to where Maxim was, still recording everything even though everyone else had gone home for the day. “Max, I think you’re good to go.”
“Are you sure?” He asked me with renewed vigor. “I don’t mind staying while you guys talk everything out.”
