Crazy Love

Xavier looked at him and without a word, picked up Billy’s hand, and brought it to his lips. Looking back at the road, he kissed Billy’s hand. “We’ll stay away from ships.”


Overwhelmed, Billy tried to keep his wits. He wanted Xavier’s hands all over him. Had to touch his bare skin. He thought about it every other minute and it was making him crazy.


“I guess we could pull over soon and take a little break,” Xavier said, still holding his hand close to his chest.


Did Xavier want him, too? Was he feeling his turmoil?


“I didn’t see any signs for a rest area,” Billy said. “But we could just park somewhere in a sleepy street or something.”


“Yeah…we could do that.” Xavier’s voice was a little hoarse.


And when Xavier looked over at him, Billy knew he wasn’t the only one feeling the physical rush. “Just get off at the next exit,” he breathed, leaning back in his seat.
