Chapter 22

* * * *

After dinner and two beers, I decided to kiss my boyfriend/lover, melting him with my sexual hunger.

Pax shook his head and pulled away from me. “Hey, man, Sophia doesn’t like public displays of queer affection.”

I laughed.

He laughed.

After we’d embraced, I held one of his hands and said, “Thanks for coming out here.”

“I wanted to see you, and Sophia.”

“Because you’re a nice guy, right?”

“Sometimes,” he said, smiling. “Other times I’m pretty naughty.” He gave me a wink, clearly suggesting he was interested in seducing me, but we never got around to it. Instead, we talked for another couple of hours as we emptied the six-pack. Once the beer was gone, he decided to head back to the house. Holding the empty tray and empty six-pack, he said, “Don’t stay out here too long.”

“I can’t promise you that.”

“You know you’ll freeze, right? Your cock will drop off. The temperature is going down to twelve. It’s a nasty cold front.”
