Onstage, AJ Mobley is smart, clever, and commands attention. Offstage, he's shy and lost to everything but his music. The reason for the difference? Tyrone Dahl. For the past two years, AJ and Tyrone have been the star attraction at the Reno bar, Heat Wave. Their dueling pianos act is fast and funny, but their camaraderie isn't just under the spotlight. They're best friends away from the show, too. An opportunity to take their act to Las Vegas seems like the perfect next step in their careers. There's only one problem -- AJ's been in love with Tyrone almost from the moment they met. He's hidden it well; after all, Tyrone might be bisexual, but he's also never lacked for company. AJ would rather be his friend than another notch on his bedpost. But Vegas beckons. And Tyrone wants to take the leap. The last thing AJ can ever do is deny his best friend ...

Interlude

As the door shut behind him, Tyrone turned on AJ and shoved him to the hard surface. “Just so you know…” He worked at AJ’s belt, nimble fingers opening his fly in a matter of seconds. “This isn’t about needing to prove anything. This is purely about wanting to suck you off.”


AJ’s eyes widened. He watched Tyrone sink to his knees, pushing AJ’s shirt up and out of his way with his free hand. Ty turned his head and licked along his waist, detouring at his belly button to drive the tip of his tongue inside. Even that delicate touch made AJ’s cock jump, and his hands shot out to grip Tyrone’s shoulders.


He held his breath as Ty tugged his pants open. He waited for the inevitable heat of those lips wrapping around his cock, but Tyrone didn’t bother with his boxers yet. He slid his mouth down over the cotton and wet the fabric along the shaft, biting slightly with each inch. AJ jerked. It felt too good. He was going to come before Ty ever touched bare skin.
