“I’m close.”

“I want you to save it for later.” He pressed a kiss against the base of Thomas’s throat, tasting sweat. “So you can put it inside me.”

Thomas’s body shook, his cock leaking a stream of precum against Ben’s fingers. His orgasm was dangerously close, and for as much as Ben wanted him to come, he wanted to tease Thomas too. He wanted to drive Thomas mad and then be on the receiving end when he finally cut loose. It was the moment their entire relationship had been building toward anyway. From their first time together with Thomas’s quiet confidence that he knew what to do—even though he never had before—to the way he let Ben take the lead to help him explore. Over the months they’d been together, Thomas had gotten more comfortable with himself, with Ben, and that was great. But Ben wanted to see what it was like when his control snapped. He wanted Thomas so delirious with want for him that he wasn’t worried about prep or tenderness.

Ben already knew Thomas loved him.

He wanted Thomas tofuck him.

“I want you so much,” Thomas whispered, fingers tangling into Ben’s hair and holding him against the crook of his neck.

“Ben!” Lara shouted, banging against the door.

“I want you,” Thomas said again.

“You can have me.” He tightened his fingers around the head of Thomas’s slippery cock, then tucked him back behind the waistband of his underwear and zipped his pants back up.

“Benjamin,” Thomas growled.

“You cantakeme,” he corrected, smoothing his hand over the ridge of Thomas’s erection. “Later tonight.”

“You’re cruel.” Thomas cleared his throat, expression pained, but approval and interest sparkled in the dark pools of his eyes.

“Are you okay?” he asked. “Honestly. With…”

“Yes. I just…it hurts. But it’s good.”

Ben smiled, pressing his lips against Thomas’s, rewarding him with a chaste and far too quick kiss.

“As soon as they’re gone,” he promised.

“If you don’t open this door, I’m using my key,” Lara called out.

“Do you need a minute?” he asked.

“I’ll be fine.”

Thomas shifted his weight and adjusted himself, finally giving Ben a quick nod. Ben went to the door and pulled it open, coming face to face with Lara’s narrowed eyes and Owen’s amused smirk.

“Sorry,” he said by way of greeting. “Thomas needed help with something.”

“I bet.” Lara looked around him, giving Thomas a onceover. “Good to see you again, Thomas.”

“Lara.”

Ben stepped to the side so Lara and Owen could come in. Owen gave Thomas a questioning look, his brow furrowed.

“Owen, this is my boyfriend, Thomas. Thomas, this is my friend Owen,” Ben said.

“Nice to meet you.” Thomas held out his hand and Owen took it, features still pinched in confusion. “Everything okay?”

“You just look familiar.”

The muscles in Thomas’s shoulders tightened, and Ben knew without him saying anything he wasn’t worried about being outed, but from being recognized by someone who’d known him during his life with Jennifer.

“Do I?”

“Do you work downtown at the Greeley building?” Owen asked.
