Story: Cameron & Rylan
CHAPTER EIGHTEEN
RYLAN
Rylan had enjoyed the night, but throughout dinner and in front of his parents and their friends, Cameron drove him insane with need. It all started the moment they sat down.
“Rylan, your designs are unique and beautiful. We’re so proud of you,” Olivia said.
“And we can brag he’s our son-in-law,” Edward joked.
The hum around the surrounding tables lowered to a buzz as Cameron’s fingers trailed up and down his arm.
The barest of touches that sent his pulse racing.
As they caught up during dinner, Cameron’s touch moved up his arm to his collar. The heat radiated through the tips of his fingers and into his neck, warming him and sending tingles straight through him. But the heat roared to life when Cameron pressed his thigh against Rylan’s, distracting him so when his socked foot slid across Rylan’s calf, he bit his lip to prevent the moan from escaping.
“You are so sexy. I want to take you home and devour you.”
When he glanced at Cameron, his passive face gave nothing away, but his eyes softened whenever Rylan looked his way.
Rylan, relieved the show had gone off without a hitch, loved Cameron’s reactions to his designs and the huge, genuine smile as Rylan introduced him made his heart swell with love for his husband. It was something he would never forget.
There was a pride in seeing his creations on real women and men, showing them off. After the models walked out on stage, his gaze searched Cameron’s face as he watched and enthused about every one of his designs.
Rylan loved what he did, and although he hadn’t expected Cameron to be so hands on with Rylan’s career, he was thrilled to have his unending support. Cameron designed a beautiful website for him, worked with Steffie to not only make his business a success, but made sure he ate and slept and took care of himself. When Cameron told him about his plans to finish college online, Rylan knew no matter what the future held for them, they would be together.
“Ready to leave?” Cameron asked.
Rylan nodded. He looked around the table and smiled at his family.
“Thank you for coming out tonight and for your support. I love all of you.”
There was a flurry of movement and with huge smiles and a few tears, Rylan hugged them as they returned his sentiments. Before long, Cameron growled and reached for Rylan’s hand, leading him outside toward the car.
“We’ll see you soon.” They walked out, surprised to find the car already at the curb.
“Did you have fun tonight?” Cameron asked after pulled out into traffic.
“It was exciting and scary but I enjoyed every moment. I can’t believe you were making me pant by the end of dinner. If we didn’t finish when we did, despite our audience, I was going to straddle your lap and devour you.”
Cameron threw his head back and laughed, reaching out to hold his hand.
After a few blocks, the car pulled into the valet spot of a fancy hotel. Cameron walked around the car, opened the door for Rylan, and slid his hand around his waist before he walked them into the opulent lobby.
Rylan glanced up to see the ornate chandelier before his gaze turned toward the marble, gold, and silver lobby filled with a smattering of chaise lounges and high-backed chairs. His eyes found Cameron as they bypassed the reception desk and headed for the elevators.
“We don’t have to check in?”
Cameron shook his head. “I packed a suitcase and had my parents check in and drop off our stuff in the room before the show. They gave me the keycard after dinner.”
“You love planning surprises, don’t you?” Rylan beamed at his husband.
They walked into the elevator and as the doors closed, Rylan turned into Cameron’s arms and wrapped himself around his husband, tightening his hold. He pressed his face against Cameron’s chest, inhaling his familiar scent.
“I do, but only for you. I love watching your expressive face whenever I do.”
“Someday, you’re gonna stop spoiling me.”
Cameron scoffed and bent down to capture Rylan’s lips in a chaste kiss.
