“Matt, please, yes,” I scream as I reach the peak and my head explodes along with my body. Filled with a bliss I can’t explain, my body continues riding the high. A high I could get addicted to.

His lips slowly travel all the way back to mine, staying only for a mere second. Then they move away for a second journey where they travel from my neck to my shoulders, my arms, my belly, down to the center where he stops.

My eyes don’t leave his as he reaches for his wallet before losing his pants. I don’t pay attention to his other movements. His eyes hold mine as they penetrate inside my soul, making love to it.

Matt crawls over me. His eyes darken as they grow wide with anticipation. He captures my lips, and his teeth tug at my bottom lip gently. I wrap my arms around his bare shoulders as his cock rests on my entrance.

“I love you,” he gasps, pushing his hips forward, stretching my insides in a delicious way. “Relax, let me love you.”

He strokes my hair, kissing my cheek, then my mouth. Each thrust draws me into him, making me a part of him. Each cell of mine mixes with his—our molecules fuse together, our thoughts. My body is building the pressure once again, but this time is different. I can see them. Two waves about to collide and become one.

Forever.

ChapterTwenty

Matthew

I look stupid.I run a hand down my tie, fix the jacket one more time, and check out my ass. Ainsley shouldn’t be allowed to spring last-minute ideas or whatever this fucking suit means. She wants Jacob and me to look pristine during Grandma’s birthday.

“You look dazzling, sweetheart,” Tristan says, blowing a kiss from the couch while taking a picture with his phone. “This goes in the scrapbook. The only time my man wore a suit.”

“I wear suits and tuxedos more often than you think, Coop.” I turn around and consider his casual T-shirt and a pair of washed-out jeans.

Thea said some nonsense when she opened the door for us that now makes sense: no one told me it’s backward day. She kissed us both and disappeared.

“Where is she?” I check my watch, afraid she went back to change her clothing for…

What would she wear on opposite day?

Thea is a chameleon. When she’s at work, she wears classy skirts and jackets—professional. At home, she’s her usual bohemian style, and… there’s no head or tail to her style.

“Your sister just called to ask for a few things for your grandma,” Coop responds, checking his watch. “Are you sure it’s okay that I’m not wearing a suit?”

I nod, but maybe I would’ve suggested it if he had called me during the week. Ever since last Friday, things have been tense between the three of us. We’re trying to ignore it, but today it’ll be impossible.

“Are we okay, Coop?”

“Does it matter right now?” He shrugs. “It’s your grandmother’s birthday. I’m here.”

“You don’t have to be around just because you think it’s an obligation.”

“That’s not what I meant.”

“Then what did you mean? I’m just fucking tired of trying to guess and walk on eggshells around you. I want you in my life, but can I have you?”

“It’s too fucking hard, but I’m trying my best.”

“You talk to Thea, but not to me. I never got an apology for what happened with your parents, or… am I not deserving? If you don’t want to be with me, tell me now.”

“Are you breaking up with me?”

“No. I just need to know what to expect, Coop. I don’t want to lose you, but even when I love you, I’ll walk away if you keep me in the dark.”

“That’s not my intention. I have more than parental insecurities, sexual frustration, and workaholism.” He rests his arms on top of his thighs and breathes. “You know when I told you about the camp I went to where they tried to beat the queerness out of my brain?”

I nod, and then he tells me what really happened there. It wasn’t just a fucking therapist telling him he’s a sinner. They tortured him and I close my eyes when he tells me the rest. My soul hurts for this man, no wonder he fights his feelings for me. I take him into my arms and hug him close.

“You’re safe,” I whisper. “I had no idea things were so…”
