Gray’s confidence wavered. “I…”

“Gray, I’m fine. That was so much better than I even imagined.”

See. No need to worry. “Yeah?”

“Yeah. Can we please go to bed now?”

Jack looked up, an exaggerated expression of shock on his face. “Haven’t you had enough?”

Mason flipped him off and Gray smiled. “As tired as I am, I’m not sure I can sleep. That brought on quite an adrenaline rush.”

Once they were all clean and dry, they snuggled in bed, Mason moved gingerly, but he swore he was fine.

“I just don’t want to have truly hurt you,” Gray said.

“Gray, I had your whole hand inside me, I’m going to be sore.”

“Let’s watch a movie,” Jack suggested. “It will help Gray focus on something other than asking you about your ass every two seconds.”

“Good idea.” Mason took the remote and scrolled through channels. He stopped on Vin Diesel’s xXx. “Perfect.”

“Stop thinking Prague Police and start thinking Playstation,” they all chorused.

“That is just the best line,” Mason said, looking as happy as Gray had ever seen him.

Gray smiled too, because in that moment, he felt like the luckiest man on earth.

The next evening, after a long soak in the hot tub, they dressed in their best clothes. Gray didn’t even grumble about it. Jack looked so fucking edible in the new gray suit he’d worn when speaking to a state congressional committee about the youth task force. And Mason had chosen a green dress shirt that made his eyes look dreamy—not that Gray would admit to such a sappy thought.

If Gray hadn’t been so focused on what he wanted to say to the two of them, he’d have been tempted to drag them to the men’s room and fuck them in a stall. It was a good thing his mind was more romantically occupied, because the restaurant Jack had chosen was not that kind of establishment.

“Why didn’t you tell me this place was so fancy?” he asked Jack. “I’ll probably use the wrong fork and embarrass everyone.”

Jack rolled his eyes. “Neither of us cares.”

“I’m just glad the seats are nice and cushy,” Mason said.

Gray felt heat rushing to his face. “Are you?—?”

“I’m fine.”

Jack hid his laughter behind his menu.

Gray couldn’t decide what to order so he took the server’s recommendation and ordered the apple cider steak. It was orgasmically delicious, as were Jack’s scallops and Mason’s filet.

Gray insisted they order dessert even though Jack said he couldn’t eat another bite. But when the server set down the sampler platter they’d chosen to share, Gray was nervous as fuck and not sure he could eat either. It was time to say what he’d planned. “Planned” as in decided last night while he lay awake watching the last of xXx with Jack and Mason sleeping beside him. What if they didn’t feel the same way? What if…?

He laid a hand on Jack’s wrist, stopping him from cutting the cheesecake into thirds. “I need to say something.”

Mason frowned, obviously feeling the seriousness of the moment. “Yes?”

“It’s not anything bad. At least, I don’t think you’ll think so. I don’t think so.”

“Gray, what’s wrong?” Mason asked.

Gray shook his head. This wasn’t going well. “Nothing’s wrong.”

Jack patted the hand that still lay on his arm. “For God’s sake, Gray, just say it.”
