Justin Wong falls in love -- and lust -- with Blake Ingram at first sight. Blake is the epitome of tall, dark, and handsome. It helps that Blake is muscular, successful, and so incredibly sweet and charming, as well. They work for the same pharmaceutical company, and their respective offices are across the hallway from each other, so they are next door neighbors. Sort of. Unfortunately for Justin, Blake already has someone special in mind. At least that’s his understanding, based on his and Blake’s conversation.<br><br>Blake thinks Justin is the most gorgeous and the sexiest man he has ever laid eyes on in his entire life. Justin is also compassionate, empathetic, and kind. Blake is absolutely infatuated with Justin. Sadly, he quickly discovers Justin is already attracted to someone else. That conversation between Justin and his best friend, which Blake accidentally overheard, is proof enough for him that Justin is off limits. He’s unwilling to be with someone who can’t fully commit to him.<br><br>Can the two men resolve this little misunderstanding?

A Misunderstanding

“Blake will be picking me up at my place at six tonight,” Justin spoke up when there was a brief pause in the conversation.


As expected, his friends all turned toward him in surprise, except for Joshua who shot him a look of gratitude. He beamed at Joshua in understanding for a second or two before sipping on his iced lychee tea. Keenan gaped at Justin for a brief moment.


“Wait for your turn. I’ll grill you after I’m done with telling Josh to man up—”


“Actually,” Javier cut Keenan off midsentence. “I’m more interested in Justin’s upcoming date with Blake.”
