“Not without me.”
Will smiles. “I’ll wait, but I really need to pee.”
“That you can do solo. I donothave that kink.”
Once Will is in the bathroom, Owen goes to make a call from the corded phone in the kitchen. His aunt answers with the TV playing in the background. She likes those silly gameshows. “Yes?”
“It’s me.”
“How was the book club?”
“It was… incredible.”
He can almost hear her smile. “So, you weren’t there alone?”
“No, it was packed actually. People loved it. Um, listen. I’m going to stay out tonight. I’ll be back tomorrow morning.”
“And where will you be spending the night?”
He swallows, reminding himself he is talking with a police officer who can detect crap. “I’ll be with a man. He’s very nice.”
“Owen.”
“I’m safe, and I really need this, okay? I’ll call you in the morning. Promise.”
“Are you still in town?”
“No. He’s not from around here, but it’s less than an hour’s drive. He picked me up after the book club.”
She sighs. “You’re an adult, but this is not Kansas City.”
“I know, and I’m being careful. Talk to you tomorrow, okay?”
“First thing in the morning. Don’t get pregnant.”
He hangs up as he hears the water flushing in the toilet. With that out of the way, he walks to the bathroom. Will has started the water in the bathtub, but he still hasn’t gotten in. The light in the room is golden and rather dim.
“Will, your ass.”
He turns to face Owen. “What about it?”
“It’s perfect. No more pants for you, mister.”
Will smiles. “I’ll consider it. Did you speak with your aunt?”
“Yes. We’re good.”
“Okay. Shall we?”
Since Owen is the only one still wearing pants and underwear, it means he needs to get naked. With Will watching, he unzips his jeans and lets them fall on the floor, then he pulls down his underwear. He wasn’t hard a minute ago, but he is now.
Will nods his approval. “Another part of you that’s beautiful.”
“Thank you.” He’s not as big as Will, but like the rest of his body, his cock is long and lean.
Will steps into the shower first, waiting for Owen to join him before he pulls the yellow curtain behindthem. Steam rises even though the water isn’t too hot. It feels like they are secluded from the world in this small space. The showerhead is above Will, who takes a step back to let the water fall over his head and face.
If Owen could stop a moment in time and have it play again and again in his head, it would be this one, of witnessing this gorgeous man under the stream, his hands sliding up and down his body.
