Hewanted to hold him in place and grind against him, feel Ash’s cock next to hisown, hard and hot, proof positive that Ash wanted this, too, that he wasn’tjust humoring Declan.
Thatsuddenly felt important. Declan didn’t want an experiment. He didn’t want toknow if he liked guys.
Hewanted Ash. And maybe it wasonlyAsh he wanted.
Andthat was okay. As long as Ash was into it, too.
Declansteeled himself and reached out, sliding his hand between their bodies to touchthe top button of Ash’s fly. Ash paused as soon as he did, looking up fromwhere he’d been nuzzling Declan’s neck, his eyes dark and his eyelids heavy.
“CanI…?” Declan asked, his throat going dry. He just wanted to touch. Just a little.
Ashnodded, lifting himself up a little so Declan had space to open his pants.
Themoment he got Ash’s fly open, Declan’s knuckles brushed against the length ofhis cock, hard and trapped in his underwear, straining to get free.
Theshock of it made Declan’s heart pound in his chest, his ears ringing with theblood rushing through them.
Ashgrunted, his hips jerking forward. Declan moved his hand away automatically, buthe’d already felt what he needed to.
Ashwasinto this. At least, as far as he could tell.
Declan’shead spun. His whole world was shifting, and it was all he could do to hold on.
Beforehe had a chance to react, Ash was sitting up, flicking the button of Declan’sfly open deftly.
Declangasped as Ash’s fingers grazed the length of his cock through his underwear whenhis pants fell open, blood rushing to his face. His eyes rolled back in hishead as Ash shifted his weight again, rocking their hips together, his cockbrushing against Ash’s with just two thin layers of fabric between them.
Thiswas more than enough. Declan grabbed Ash’s wrist as he saw him reach out for thewaistband of his underwear.
Hedidn’t have to say anything. Ash just nodded, planted his hand on the arm ofthe couch behind Declan’s head, and leaned in again, smiling the entire time.
Declanhummed happily as their lips met, rocking his hips as the movement and theposition brought their hips together, still wanting to feel Ash. He’d neverimagined that just grinding against him would feel so good.
Thedeep, aching need inside him eased off whenever Ash’s cock made contact withhis, flaring up again with every movement.
Itwas hard to remember being this eager, this turned on before. Declan wasn’t surehe ever had been.
“You’rein charge,” Ash murmured into his ear. “Whatever you want is okay.”
“Justthis?” Declan asked. “I know it’s… awkward, but…”
Ashsmiled at him, fondness written all over his face. He’d given Declan the look amillion times.
Itusually meant he was being ridiculous.
“Thisis sweet. And it’s taking me back to being seventeen and new to all this, so Ireally don’t hate it. It’s kinda nice to revisit that with you.”
Declangasped as Ash rocked against him again, a bright spike of pleasure hitting himdeep in his gut. Even with their underwear between them, this was close to overwhelming.He couldn’t have handled anything more. Not yet.
Declanmoved his free hand to Ash’s ass, the other one trapped between his body andthe back of the couch. The position was awkward, but that was perfect, too.This wasAsh. His best friend in the whole world.
Theycould be a little awkward around each other.
“Thisworking for you?” Ash asked, breathless and panting. His breath was searingagainst the sensitive skin of Declan’s neck, goosebumps coming up all the waydown it.
Declannodded, not trusting himself to say anything intelligent right now.
Ashchuckled beside his ear, a low, deep sound that went straight to Declan’s cock.He laughed in response, rocking up against Ash’s body, gasping as Ash’s cockcaught along the length of his own.
