His hair is freshly washed as though he’s just stepped out of the shower.

I lay back against the cushions.

Jesus.

My fingers move across the screen.

Such a fucking tease,I send.

Soon, another message.

Marco:Like?

Amos:I like it a little too much.

I watch the typing bubble appear.

Marco:Been thinking about your kisses. How good they felt.

Amos:Let me remind you.

I exhale slowly as the memory returns.

Marco pressed against the towel pile.

The heat of him.

The way he’d kissed me like he meant it.

His reply pings.

Marco:Are you asking me on a date, Mr Vale?

I roll onto my side.

His confidence is such a huge fucking turn on.

Amos:Would you say yes if I did?

Marco:I dare you to ask...

Damn. I can feel myself falling so hard.

Amos:Marco Adams, I would love to take you on a date. Will you go out with me?

It feels like being a teenager again, in the sweetest possible way.

Marco:I'd love to. And I promise to wear more than just this tie.

Amos:Disappointing. I was planning to wear just a tie so that we matched ;)

Marco:Keep talking like that, and I'll have to type with one hand.

Amos:*devil emoji*

I sink back into the couch again, trying my best to be good.

Amos:Do you have a sweet tooth? I know an ice cream parlor that will change your life.
