Carey Thornton is tired of couples. All his friends have someone special and he feels like the odd man out. Painfully single, Carey cruises the nightclubs and gay party scene, flirting with any hot guy who looks his way, but he always seems to be the one to go home alone.<br><br>It's comic convention weekend at the Omni Hotel where Carey works, and somehow he got roped into working the registration desk in the dealer room. While checking in the vendors before the crowds arrive, he meets the sexy Pat Dix, setting up the booth for Kryptonite Comics.<br><br>Painfully shy, Patrick has never dreamt an outgoing, fun-loving guy like Carey would ever find him attractive. He's surprised when Carey asks him to hang out after the convention hall closes, and he surprises himself by saying yes. A late night in the hotel pool with Carey's rowdy friends might just be what Patrick needs to break him out of his shell. But it isn't until the friends leave them alone that Patrick gets "Carey'd away."

Carey'd Away

Tyreese glared at Carey as he eased his arms around his boyfriend’s waist.“What’s your problem this morning,Thornton?”he asked,his voice dangerously low.


With a laugh,Bill leaned back into Tyreese,rubbing against him.“He’s still pissed about that whole Vic and Mattthing.”


“I am not.”Carey pouted.“Shut up,both of you.Go someplace else if you’re going to sex each other up.”


“You’re just jealous.”Tyreese kissed the back of Bill’s neck and raised his eyebrows.“You know you want me.”


Carey rolled his eyes at that.As if.Tyreese wasn’t his type.He wanted someone with a body that wouldn’t quit,someone who didn’t know how hot he was so Carey didn’t have to fight his way to the boy.Someone other than anyone I’ll ever meet here.Was it five o’clock yet?Couldn’t this day be over with already?
