"Me either." Rory glares at the cat I was sure had moved on.
Calling to him, I expect him to come to me, but then he goes to my brother, piquing my curiosity. I'm guessing Charlie smells like his new cat.
"Hey there, cutie." Charlie glances down at the gray fur ball rubbing on his legs. "You look a lot like the cat I have at home."
"I bet he does," Rory mutters. Am I missing something here? Does he suddenly have some strange beef with the cat?
We chat some more and Ghost situates himself on my brother's lap, staying there when we watch a movie. He follows him to the kitchen when Rory picks up Chinese takeout and naps by his feet, my brother not at all bothered by being smothered by a random cat. Weird. What does this remind me of? Why do I get the feeling Ghost is more than some strange cat?
"Ready to turn in?" Rory nudges his nose into my cheek, dragging my chair toward his.
"That's definitely my cue too. You two crazy kids have fun. I'm going to read in bed." Charlie stands up, laughing. "Are you coming, Ghost?" Ghost meows and runs after my brother. When they are both out of sight, I turn toward Rory, tilting my head.
"Trust me. You don't want to know."
"Okay, then I won't ask. At least not tonight."
"So off to bed then?"
"Not yet." I wrap my fingers around his tail as soon as he changes forms. I’ve missed this side of him. The first one I saw and fell for almost immediately. I'm still not sure I believe in fated mates but one thing is for certain, I believe in Rory.
"What do you have in mind instead?"
"Come for a swim with me?"
A smile spreads across his face. "I'd love to."
We make our way to the water, stripping off our clothes after we're sure no one’s around and my brother's blinds are shut all the way. He already knows better. No doubt he saw the lust in Rory's eyes in the kitchen and heard the back door close.
Rory grabs my hand and leads me into the water. It's not too cold tonight and Rory's warmth is never too far out of reach. "Did you have a good day, sweetheart?"
"I did, but I always do with you."
"That's because you haven't seen all my bad habits yet."
Snickering, I lower myself in the water to match his height. "Exactly how many do you have?"
He pinches my side and I squeal. "I have them too, so don't worry. We can compare and contrast later."
"Really? And to think I assumed you were perfect this whole time." He smirks against my lips.
"I hate to break it to you but nothing in life is perfect."
"Right here and now is."
He's right. We are two flawed people in a flawed world trapped in a perfect moment.
"Can I ask you something?" he says, breaking the overstretched silence.
"Sure." I rest my arms on his shoulders, rutting my cock against his.
"Want to take a trip with me?"
"Where?" We both pant as we rock into each other in a steady motion.
"Everywhere. I want to travel the world and bring you with me."
"Everywhere you go, I'll go."
