He hummed, then made a decision. “The tub sounds amazing, but only if you’ll join me.” Nick paused, seemingly waiting for my reply. But before I could answer, he had another question I wasn’t prepared for. “Are you gonna show it to me?”
I frowned. “Show you the tub? You saw it.”
“No,” he chuckled. “My name on your asshole. You said it was there.”
I covered my eyes with my hand and groaned. “You’re never going to let me forget that, are you?”
He chuckled again. “Not a chance. It’s too funny.”
“What if I want to forget it?”
He grinned. “You can try. But the video is a pretty great reminder. I hope it doesn’t go viral.”
The smile slipped from my face. “Tell me it’s not out on the internet.”
Nick climbed up from his spot where he was wedged between me and the sofa. Straddling me, he took my face in his hands. “If it is, I didn’t do it. But I’m almost positive the only people Alejandro sent it to were you and me.”
“And Stella. God, it will live on in infamy.”
Warm lips met mine, making me forget the damn video. I’d do it again if I needed to. But I knew my best friends, and they wouldn’t put that out there. They’d just save it to torture me with for eternity.
But right now, I didn’t care anymore.
CHAPTER15
NICK
“Doyour parents know I’m coming with you for Thanksgiving?”
I smiled and reached over to turn down the volume of the music in the car. Lowering my hand, I laid it on Preston’s right thigh as he drove us to Hillsboro. Teasing and joking were part of our love language, and I had to take this golden opportunity to tease him a bit.
“Are you kidding? They’d kill me if they knew I was in a relationship with an older man. Better to just let them be surprised.”
Preston glanced at me, then back to the road, then back to me.
“What’s wrong?” I was dying to smile.
“Nick, we can’t surprise them like that. It’s not fair to them. I’m not the thirty-something they might expect. That could ruin the holiday for everyone.”
I sighed. “I’m pretty sure it’ll be okay. The fact that you’re a man has nothing to do with it. Sure, they think I’m straight, but it’s okay. This is a great time to tell them I’m bi. You’ll protect me if it goes bad, right?”
Preston’s expression changed, and his eyes widened. “What the fuck? Protect you? From what?”
Before I could say anything else, he pulled into an empty parking lot and shifted into park. He ran his hand over his pale face before turning to me.
I did my best to look unaffected.
He narrowed his eyes as he studied me. I was trying not to crack under his gaze, but I sucked at this. The longer he looked at me, the more difficult it became to contain my smile.
“You’re fucking with me,” he grumbled.
I curled my lips in as the laughter bubbled up from deep inside me. Preston glared, but that just turned me on. And the smile he tried to hide said it all.
“It was too easy, boo. You just served it right up to me on a silver platter. And you should have seen your face!”
Reaching for me, he pulled me in for a blistering kiss. My cock took notice and wanted out to play. He ran his fingers into the back of my hair as he kissed me.
Preston pulled away and cupped my face as he looked deep into my eyes. “I love how relaxed you are about giving me shit. You may not have noticed, but some people find me intimidating.”
