Jordan Matthews is a good kid, an average student, and has never gotten in trouble at school before. But today he finds himself in the principal's office with fellow classmate Casey Sothern. He doesn't think they've done anything wrong, and doesn't expect much in the way of punishment until Casey's mother arrives. Which means someone's called his parents, too. And they'll know Casey isn't just his best friend, but his boyfriend, as well. Then Jordan sees his father storm through the front doors of the school. Any punishment the principal has planned for catching the two boys kissing in the hall between classes will pale in comparison to what Jordan's father might have to say.

Trouble at School

Casey shrugged. “No one came clean—”


The lunch bell interrupted him. Shit,Jordan cursed silently. He wasn’t cutting it close now—he was late.


Without thinking, he tightened his hand in Casey’s and tugged his boyfriend to him. “Duggan’s going to kill me,” he murmured, pressing his lips to Casey’s. “I got to go.”


The moment Casey’s mouth touched his, an electric charge ran through him. Wait, not here,he reminded himself, even as his body gave into the kiss. We’re in school. We can’t do this here. We can’t…


Casey’s lips parted slightly and his tongue licked into Jordan. There was a faint taste of sweet bubble gum on his breath, and another thrill tingled Jordan’s groin. It wasn’t watermelon flavor, but it wasgum, which they weren’t allowed to chew in class anyway. But if Casey had some, Jordan knew he’d share.
