My balls drew up and electricity shot up my spine. “Oh yeah, baby. Just like that.”

The sounds of our grunts and groans filled the room. Our thrusts got faster and less coordinated. Miguel threw his head back. “Zach. Yes.”

His cock pulsed beneath me and warm cum shot between us. That set off my own orgasm. My hips stuttered as pleasure washed over me. My cock hardened and thickened before my release joined Miguel’s on our bodies.

I pushed up on my forearms. “Hey, cutie.”

He rolled his eyes. “Fine. But only you get to call me cute.”

“I am perfectly okay with that,” I said. I kissed him again. “Let’s shower and then get some breakfast.”

“Sounds good.”

We had just finished our rather lengthy shower when my conversation with my sister came back to me. “Oh shit, I forgot.”

“Forgot what?” Miguel asked.

“Allie’s bringing Cody over around eleven because she has to work and couldn’t find a sitter.” I winced. “I’m sorry. I told her yes without asking you first.”

Miguel shook his head. “It’s fine. He’s a great kid. We can take him out on the boardwalk and maybe walk on the beach if it’s not too chilly.”

I let out a relieved breath. “Thanks. I promise next time I’ll ask you first.”

He came over and put his arms around my waist. “Zach, it’s family. For what it’s worth, I probably would have done the same thing if Isabella had asked me to watch her kids at the last minute. It’s what we do.”

I hugged him back and kissed his forehead. “Has anyone ever told you how awesome you are?”

“Only you,” he replied quietly.

I leaned away from him. “Come on. Are you telling me your bestie never told you that you’re awesome?”

“That doesn’t count,” he said. “He’s supposed to think I’m awesome. I’ve never had a boyfriend tell me I’m awesome.”

My heart did a crazy dance in my chest. “Boyfriend?”

Miguel’s eyes went wide when he realized what he’d just said. “I’m so sorry. It just slipped out. I know we’ve only been dating for a couple of days. I wasn’t trying to put any pressure on you.”

He tried to step out of my embrace, but I wouldn’t let him go. “Slow down, baby. I’m not upset, just surprised. I didn’t think you’d want anything like that so soon.”

“I don’t.” He shook his head. “That’s a lie. I do. But you’re new to this whole dating men thing. I don’t want to seem like I’m trying to tie you down before you have a chance to explore other options.”

I felt a twist in my gut at his words. I didn’t want to explore other options. It hurt me to think Miguel was so used to getting cast aside. “Okay, let me set something straight with you.” He snorted, and I chuckled. “Or maybe not so straight.” I kissed him gently. “I don’t want to date anyone but you. This thing between us didn’t happen overnight, at least not for me. I’ve been drawn to you from the first time I met you. I just didn’t relate it to my sexuality until recently. I’ve never felt so connected to anyone I’ve dated. If you want to call us boyfriends, I’m all for it. I don’t want to share you with anyone else.”

Miguel looked up at me, his eyes shiny. “I’m still trying to figure out how no woman snagged you when they had a chance.” He shook his head. “Their loss. My gain.” He settled further into my embrace. “I would love to call you my boyfriend.”

Relief washed over me. I hugged him tightly. “You have no idea how happy that makes me.”

We got dressed and headed to the kitchen to make breakfast. I cooked the bacon while Miguel made scrambled eggs and toast. It felt so domestic, like we’d been doing it for years instead of days.

After breakfast, we cleaned up and then combed through the apartment, making sure anything breakable or harmful was out of Cody’s reach. Miguel already had covers on all the outlets within his reach because his niece and nephew used to visit.

Allie got to our place a little after eleven. Cody was super excited to see Miguel and started singing the Bruno song. Allie groaned, “No more. Please.”

She looked tired and stressed. Her brows were drawn together in a frown. “Are you okay?” I asked. “You look like something’s bothering you.”

Her eyes widened slightly, and she quickly shook her head. “Nothing’s wrong. I’m just a little tired. Cody’s a lot sometimes.”

“You know I’ll help any time I can, Allie.”
