Chapter 12

“So what happened to you?”

He sighed as he took a sip of champagne before he recounted the entire story. Tim was visibly angered when he finished telling him about the encounter between him and Ian. He’d recounted his high school days before and Tim had been furious then, too. Knowing Tim’s mile-wide jealous streak and possessiveness, he was certain his lover was feeling jealous right at this very moment.

“Hey, babe. Are you okay?”

Tim nodded slightly, but did not utter a single word as the other man was obviously trying hard to calm the burning anger and jealousy. Mike knew his lover well enough to know he was lying. A minute or so later, Tim huffed out a breath before confirming what Mike knew before.

“I’m jealous,” Tim whispered softly before quickly stuffing a bite of lasagna into his mouth.

“What?”

His eyes widened as he tried to suppress the laughter bubbling inside him.
