Chapter Eleven #2
“Connor is being Connor times one hundred today, if anyone hasn’t noticed.” I state the obvious and then change the topic once the laughter dies down.
I enjoy chatting with the group after that, still giddy with the relief of knowing Gabe's comment referred to Luke and not some random other guy.
Two beers and an hour later, we have a set of newcomers who notice Kaden. The girl looks familiar, and then it clicks when she calls Kaden ‘Dr. Parker’ when Luke invites them to join us—it’s Kelsey, his assistant, and what I assume is her boyfriend.
Connor nudges Faith to move next to Dakota who’s been sitting by himself and now looks both nervous and excited by his new couch companion.
Faith has kept him in the friend zone for weeks now, but every now and then, you can see this glint in her eyes giving away just how much she’s enjoying the push and pull with him.
She doesn’t have the best taste in men, but Dakota doesn’t seem like that type of asshole, given the way he looks at her.
Luke pulls Kaden onto his lap to make extra room for the couple to join us, but their attention diverts to my prying roommate all up in their business, asking everything about themselves aside from their social security numbers.
“Are you having a good time?” Gabe’s question startles me.
“Depends.”
“On what exactly?”
Our eyes connect, “Are you going to take me home with you tonight and finally fuck me like you mean it?" The air in our bubble changes, and the reaction is visceral. The smoldering look aimed at me is so heated that the hair on my arms is standing up.
“Is that what you want, Ender?”
“I wouldn’t have asked if it wasn’t.”
Our brief connection ends with Gabe taking out his phone, typing something, then quickly inserting himself back into the conversation with Jackson and Lanie.
In the last hour or so since our talk about going home, I’ve spent half of the time listening to the chatter around me and the other half lost in thought, eager for Gabe to fulfill his promise.
After multiple beers and a couple of shots Faith and Lanie made us all take, I’m ready to get out of here.
Kaden and Luke went to get food and drinks a few minutes ago, both of which are the last things on my mind.
The vibration near my thigh prompts Gabe to reach into his pocket to silence his phone, even as he stays completely engaged in his discussion with Jackson.
Instead of resting his elbow on a knee with his other one, though, his free hand makes itself at home on my inner thigh, producing a wave of electricity that shoots straight to my cock—just like every other time he touches me.
A server arrives a minute later with the food Kaden and Luke were supposed to bring back from the bar.
Jackson asks the server how she wound up bringing it to us, and it turns out Luke and Kaden apparently left without saying goodbye—I hope everything is okay.
“You ready to get out of here?” Gabe’s question heightens the excitement already coursing through my veins.
“Thought you’d never ask.”
We say our goodbyes, and I quietly let Connor know I won’t be home tonight. I feel the text message from him come in before we even get out to the parking lot.
Gabe leads the way to his car, but a noise causes us to pause before he opens the passenger door for me.
I see movement a few cars down on our left and realize the noise is coming from behind Luke’s Jeep.
Stepping to the back of Gabe’s car to see who’s there, I find my best friend in a compromising position.
Kaden’s head rests against the back of the Jeep with his pants around his ankles. Luke is behind him, slowly pumping his dick into Kaden’s ass. Luke grabs Kaden’s chin, bringing him in for a kiss. The entire scene has me stuck in place; I don’t think I could tear my eyes away from them if I tried.
“Do you like what you see?” Gabe’s whisper sends a heated shudder coiling through my body. “Do you like watching my best friend fuck your best friend?”
I know I shouldn’t be watching them…I shouldn’t want to watch them, but I admit to it with a nod.
“Is it because it’s them, or would you be as interested in strangers too?”
A flashing image of someone watching Gabe and me while we’re fucking in public hitches my breath.
An arm wraps around me with one hand on my stomach, the other palm over the bulge in my jeans, and his hard cock pressing against my ass—all feeding into the desire scorching my body from the inside out.
“Are you imagining that's us?” He sucks on my earlobe as I lean back into him, both of us watching Luke with his hand around Kaden’s throat while railing him like his life depends on it.
The blissed-out look on Kaden’s face is not one I’ve seen before, telling me his love for Luke supersedes any intimate emotions he and I shared during those months together—and I couldn’t be happier for them.
Suddenly, I feel like an intruder and turn in Gabe’s arms, delicately placing a kiss on his lips before I ask him to take me to his bed.
