Midnight came, and the whole bar counted down together from ten to one.

“Happy New Year!” the whole place shouted.

Casey’s hands found my waist, tugging me in close as we kissed.

“Here you go, Casey!” Harlan said, appearing near us with a bottle of champagne. He looked like he was on cloud nine, and even he had been dancing like a fool all night with his friend Sawyer.

“You want me to pop this bottle?” Casey asked Harlan over the music.

“Do it,” he said. “On the house.”

Casey gave Harlan a little salute and positioned himself with the cork ready to fly. He moved his thumb and almost instantly, the cork came off with a loudpop, flying out and landing on one of the pool tables by the wall.

And apparently the bottle must have gotten more than a little shaken up while Harlan danced over, because the champagne downrightwaterfalledonto Casey.

“Holy fuck!” Casey called out, his eyes going wide as champagne spewed all over him, down his arms and all over the front of his shirt.

“Oh, God,” I said.

“I am now soaked in about a half a bottle’s worth of champagne,” Casey declared. “That’s one way to get me to perk up.”

“That might be our cue to head out,” I said.

Casey was laughing now. He shrugged, tossing back the bottle and swigging some of the champagne before offering it to me. I had a big sip, too.

“Yes,” Casey finally said. “I think I should get back home to put on some slightly less alcoholic clothes.”

“You two just needed an excuse to get out of here together, and that’s okay,” Harlan said. “Maybe it was part of my plan all along.”

“All right,” I said. “Put your coat on and zip it up tight, Casey. We’rerunningback to your place.”

I’d been partly joking, but Casey put on his winter coat, zipped it to the top over his soaked shirt, and we took off into the night. As we ran the few short blocks back, people were roaming the streets of Jade River’s town square, playing with sparklers and tiny firecrackers and wishing each other a happy new year. Casey and I jogged through the cold air, laughing and talking the whole way back.

It was only a few minutes, but it was exhilarating.

This new year actuallyfeltlike a new lease on life. Like I was starting over, but in a good way.

Like I had no idea what was ahead, and for once, that was a good thing.

We made it back to Casey’s house in record time. I smacked his ass as we walked in the front door, and he stripped off his clothes right away. My cock perked up, hardening in record time. I was ready for him. Finally. With no doubts, and no hesitations in my mind.

“I have to get in the shower and rinse this off,” he said, “otherwise my whole body is going to be a sticky mess.”

“Maybe I like your body being a sticky mess,” I murmured, running my hand down his chest.

“Too bad,” he said with a smile. “Come get in the shower with me.”

I tugged off my clothes as we made our way to the bathroom, and every step of the way there felt like it took too long. He turned the shower on hot, and the moment we were under the water I knew it had been the best decision of the night.

“That feels fucking amazing,” Casey said, letting the water fall all around him.

“Do you always look this damn hot when you’re taking a shower, or is this for my benefit?”

“You’re making me blush.”

“Going to make you blush even harder, now,” I said. Casey had been hard ever since he’d taken his clothes off, and I knew exactly what I wanted to do to him.

I dropped to my knees right there under the spray of the hot water. I took his cock into my mouth in one smooth motion.
