Oh, Jesus.
“You wanna come for me, Trey?”
He nodded again, squeezing his eyes shut as his cock tunneled through his fist. He squeezed more firmly until he felt that electrical explosion within him.
“Oh, fuck,” he growled, gritting his teeth as he came, barely aware of Magnus doing the same.
Okay, so maybe he could get used to this thing they had going.
Baz lay in the dark room trying to block out the fact that JJ was in the room next to him. He’d spent the better part of the past few days in her presence, still under the ruse of only being her friend.
Truth was, it was killing him.
Could he do it indefinitely if he had to? Yeah. Probably. But only because he couldn’t imagine his life without her in it.
But it was during those times, like tonight, when she’d been laughing and joking and touching him every chance she got. Completely platonic, of course, but he couldn’t seem to convince his body that was her intention. No matter how hard he tried, Baz still wanted her with a fierceness he couldn’t explain.
Just like every night since they got here, he lay in the full-size bed in this small room and listened for sounds coming from her room. Every so often he swore he heard her, but he figured it was wishful thinking. Considering his overactive imagination usually turned what was a comfortable vacation with friends into something lascivious with his thoughts of her getting more erotic by the day, it made sense that his mind was playing tricks on him. His favorite fantasy: JJ would come into his room, crawl into his bed, and beg him to make love to her.
When he thought he heard footsteps, Baz glanced over at the door. Just beneath he could see a sliver of light. Was that a shadow? Was JJ at his door?
He waited.
Nothing.
Okay, so he was most definitely imagining things now.
He flopped back down, stared up at the ceiling, and heard a light creak.
The door opened an inch.
Propping himself up again, he watched the door. “JJ?”
“Yeah.”
Baz pinched his arm because surely he was dreaming.Ow. Okay, not dreaming.
“You need somethin’?”
She stepped into the room, closed the door gently behind her.
Baz didn’t move, wasn’t even sure he could. When she started toward him, he was pretty sure he stopped breathing.
And then her knee was on the mattress.
“Is this okay?” she whispered.
“More than,” he said, shifting over so she could join him. “Are you all right?”
“Don’t want to be alone.”
He understood that. It was different here, in this house. Not familiar like their apartment.
JJ settled in beside him and Baz managed to exhale. She was looking for comfort. He understood. Although she didn’t talk about it, he knew she was still having a difficult time dealing with what had happened on New Year’s.
“Baz?”
He turned his head toward her. Before he could speak, her lips were on his.
