beyond embarrassing for him to spring an erection just

from looking at the other man. Then everybody would
know about his secret crush for the huge defenseman.
Unless& Derry took in a sharp breath as a revelation
came to him. Maybe the reason why Fallon hadn t
made a move yet was because he didn t think that Derry
was interested. While Derry had been dropping clues
left and right, maybe he wasn t being obvious enough
and Fallon had missed them.
Derry took in a shaky breath as a plan came to him.
It was wild. It was reckless. It was crazy. It was
something that the old him would never dream of
doing.
But in the past two weeks, he d grown in so many
ways. One of the things he d learned was that he wasn t
a total troll and that there were actually others who
considered him good looking. What if one of them was
Fallon?
Derry nibbled on his bottom lip, undecided. What if
he went ahead with it and Fallon turned him down?
That would make things awkward between them, to say
the least.
Yet, if Derry didn t try, he knew he d live the rest of
his life with regret. So, he just had to suck up all of his
courage and make the first move.
With shaking hands, he stripped, tossing his
equipment to the side, with little care where it landed.
Once naked, he reached into his locker and dug around
in his jean pocket for the condom and travel size
package lubricant that he d been carrying on him for
several days in the hopes that he and Fallon could put
them to good use.
Taking a deep breath to steady his nerves, Derry

haltingly walked into the shower. As soon as he entered
the large, tiled room, his heart began to race, from fear
but mostly because of the sight in front of him.
To say that Fallon was every one of Derry s dreams
come true would have been a tragic understatement. For
even if Derry had the best imagination in the world, he
couldn t have conjured up such a sexy and beautiful
image.
Fallon stood under the spray, the water plastering his
blond hair to his skull. The white tiles made his skin
look more tanned than usual, the darker tones making
his muscles stand out even more. The water sluiced
down Fallon s muscular body, the droplets caressing his
flesh just the way Derry always wanted, but had never
believed he d be able to.
Derry even licked his lips, wondering how Fallon
would taste. Not just his skin either, but mouth and
cock. A moan filled the air and it only took Derry a
second to realize the sound came from him. Not
surprising given how aroused he was. For the first time
that thought didn t terrify him. He didn t even care that
his cock was so hard and aching that a droplet of pre-
cum had already formed on the tip.
The noise must have alerted Fallon because he
looked over, his hand going up to swipe the water from
his face. When his gaze locked on Derry, there was no
mistaking the look of desire on the other man s face.
His eyes grew even darker with passion.
That alone gave Derry the final courage he needed.
Walking forward until he was only a foot away from
Fallon, Derry held out his hand.
What is it? Fallon asked.

Derry opened his palm so the lube and condom were
more visible. A heavy silence filled the air as Fallon
gazed down as if he d never seen those items before.
A heat came over Derry as his erection wilted. Damn
it to hell and back. Fallon didn t want him after all.
Derry closed his eyes as hurt sliced through him. At the
same time, he wished that he could shrink to
nothingness to escape through the drain and avoid the
whole embarrassing situation.
Are you sure? Fallon s voice cut in.
Hope flared in Derry, but he still searched Fallon s
face carefully to make sure the other man wasn t
taunting him. Then Derry glanced down, saw that
Fallon was just as hard as he was, and Derry felt he
heady sense of success.
Yes, I ve wanted it ever since you stood up for me
that day, Derry rasped.
If you re only doing this out of a sense of gratitude,
then you don t have to. I won t go back to hating you,
Fallon promised.
Gazing into Fallon s eyes, Derry let go of all his [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
