“He wanted you to look,” Luke interrupted. “He likes the attention, especially from younger men.”

“Colton said you tried to seduce them?”

“Oh fuck, let’s get something to eat first, then I can re-embarass myself by telling you all about it.”

My tray was filled with fruit, yogurt, scrambled eggs and toast, and I was ready to hear all about Ezra’s big night. The story didn’t last long.

“There’s not much to tell. For whatever reason, we ended up back at their hotel.”

“Colton said it was because you begged to go back with them, saying-”, I pulled out my phone to read the text, “-I want the two of you to Eiffel Tower me like in porn.”

Luke spit out the mouthful of cereal he had, quickly grabbing a napkin to wipe up the milk running down his chin.

“Yeah, I probably said something like that. I remember getting back to the room, but I don’t remember much. I guess I pulled my pants down and since I wasn’t wearing any underwear, I was naked.”

Colton already texted the entire story, but it was much more entertaining hearing it from Ezra.

“And then I guess I fell asleep on the couch on top of a pillow so my ass was in the air.”

“Well, shit, I’ve seen that porno,” Luke said.

“Except Zeph and Colton were respectful of my unconscious body, for which I am thankful. I would’ve loved a threesome but being awake is kind of a prerequisite. I know, I know. They wouldn’t have fooled around with me anyway. No teammates.”

“That’s right,” I said, proud of his mature perspective.

“But maybe I could’ve watched them fuck?”

Nevermind.

“Maybe next time?” Luke suggested.

“If it makes you feel any better, Colton said you have a great ass,” I added.

Of course, I knew that would make him feel better and for the rest of breakfast, the grin on Ezra’s face remained.

After breakfast, we headed to The Cock and Bull for some pool time. It was nice to get out of the village, and Ezra wanted to show off his great ass. I should never have told him Colton said that, and I’m sure the porn stars had nothing to do with it. I’d also hazard a guess that he wandered out of his comfort zone yesterday and wanted a little bit of normalcy.

A gay, clothing-optional pool was our normal, it seemed.

Ty met us in the lobby, and Colton had already texted that he and Zeph would be down later.

“‘Sup, bros?” Ty hugged both me and Luke. “Fresh meat, huh?”

“Colton said I have a great ass.”

Ty laughed and pulled Ezra in for a hug as well. “I’m sure you do, Ezra. Thanks for letting me know.”

“Damn, you can barely see the pool.”

I turned to see what Luke was talking about and sure enough, the pool was barely visible through the steam.

“Must be the weather,” Ty said.

We headed to the front desk to buy Ezra a day pass, then made our way into the pool area. It was as crowded as one could expect for a late morning. I only saw maybe three other guys through the steam or mist or whatever it was.

“They must have a fog machine or something in here. It wasn’t like this last time,” Luke said.

I shrugged. “Like Ty said, maybe the weather?”
