“I can be blue,” Alec says. “Just tell me what it means and I’m every shade of blue you like. Light blue, navy blue, cerulean blue. I’ll even be turquoise.”

When I look at him he’s smiling like the fucking Cheshire cat. “Don’t gloat,” I say. “Be gracious.”

“He doesn’t get to be gracious. He didn’t win.”

“And you,” I say, leaning back down to bite Danny’s lip. He hisses at me. “Be honest.”

“With what?”

“Oh, for fok’s sake,” Alec sighs. He’s about to swing his leg over and dismount Danny’s thighs when I reach out and place a hand on his shoulder.

But I don’t say anything. Not to him. Instead I look at Danny. “This is it, OK? Your last chance. If you want to walk away from him, go. But I’m staying. And if you stay, it better not be for me. It better be for us.”

Danny’s eyes dart to Alec.

Alec shrugs. “I’ll get us all rings. How many carats do you need to feel loved and cherished, Danny?”

Danny smiles. Then he laughs. “Fuck you.”

“I mean, you do realize that diamonds have nothing to do with forever, yeah? They’re just a made-up token invented by the mining industry.”

“Fuck off.”

“But I have connections. I can make you feel special.”

And then… that defining moment is back. Because that last part comes out different. It’s not a joke. He’s not making a joke. He’s serious. And slowly, so slowly, Alec lowers his head down to Danny’s stomach and begins to kiss him. His eyes looking up Danny’s chest. Wide open.

“I don’t even have to try hard,” Alec says, pausing to kiss his way up Danny’s abs. “Because it’s always been true. I wanted you first, you know.”

I’m so close to Danny I hear him swallow.

“I went to that boxing club to get your attention.”

“Fuck off.”

“No, it’s true, man. It is. I was fighting for you that day.”

Alec is still holding Danny’s cock. His fist tightens around his shaft, making Danny suck in a breath and hold it.

“Christine. She was…” And now Alec’s eyes lift up to mine, just as his face hovers over Danny’s. “A little bonus. And yeah, nunu, I fell in love with you that day too. I mean not nearly the way I am now, but it was love. There was something. It was real.”

Alec starts grinding his hips against Danny’s cock. Slowly. Back and forth. So slowly.

None of us dare move. There is only the sound of our breath. And this time, when he leans down to kiss Danny, it’s different.

Danny responds and I stay absolutely still as I watch their lips meld together. I am mesmerized by their contrasting jawlines. Danny’s week-old stubble. Alec’s just a few days’ worth. I get glimpses of tongues, and teeth. And when they groan and growl, I moan with them.

Alec pulls back, his hand taking mine as he sits up and eases me forward over Danny’s face.

“There you go,” he says. “Yes, just like that,” as he places my hips directly over Danny’s eager tongue and pushes down on my lower back.

“Oh… fuck,” I whisper, as the first swipe tickles past my opening. And when he flicks it against my clit I can’t stop myself. I press into him. Sinking down on his face. Seeking out the rough edges of his jaw. Loving the way the stubble feels against the soft, tender skin between my legs.

Alec, ever the facilitator, pushes my head down towards Danny’s rock-hard cock and my hands automatically reach forward to grab his shaft.

I’m fully bent over now. Danny’s finger finds its way inside me. And then his large hand spreads my cheeks so his thumb can massage the tight pucker of my ass.

Alec, still balanced over top of Danny’s thighs, says, “I get it, man.”
