Chapter 14

“Fuck! It’s cold,” Jimmy said. “My nads are trying to climb up inside my body. What do we do next?”

“This.” Henry picked up a handful of snow and began to rub Jimmy down.

“Shit,” Jimmy said, shivering, as he, too, began to rub snow over the professor’s chest.

“This was your idea,” Henry reminded him.

On a youthful impulse, Henry tackled Jimmy, and the two men fell into a drift. A wrestling match ensued. They rolled over until both were covered in snow. Finally, Henry straddled Jimmy, pinning him down in the deep, white mound. Jimmy struggled against Henry’s superior weight and strength, then pretended to give up. When Henry relaxed, Jimmy managed to gain the advantage and flipped over on top of Henry. Henry grabbed a handful of snow and washed Jimmy’s face in it. Laughing, Jimmy returned the favor. Then both men paused, looking into each other’s eyes. Jimmy fell on Henry and into a deep kiss. Henry wrapped his arms around the young man and kissed him back.
