“I don’t think he’ll do that. He’s always chosen people over machines, and I think that decision has caught up with him. Lytton AV can’t compete with companies like Tyler Tech, with their Aquacruise range.”

“Well, nobody could ever accuse George Tyler of not investing in tech. No wonder Aquacruise is streets ahead of Lytton AV.” Alex rolled his eyes. He was alarmed to hear all this, but not surprised.

“Your dad’s trying hard, though,” Spencer said anxiously. “He works long hours, and he’s good to his ISs. We all adore him.”

“Yes, he’s a good man,” Alex murmured into his drink.

“Tell me about Charles. He seemed so lovely when he visited us, but what’s he really like, in private?”

“Heislovely.” Alex tried not to sound bored answering the same question he was always asked. “Everybody loves Charles.” Feeling pleasantly tipsy, and because Spencer was sweet and attractive, he decided to make a move. “You’re cute.” He put his hand over Spencer’s and stroked. “Would you like to come back to my place?”

Spencer’s Adam’s apple bobbed convulsively. Looking at Alex like a startled rabbit, it took him several seconds to pull himself together enough to give a shy nod.

Alex put his arm around the young man’s shoulder as they walked to the flat, feeling hazily happy. His first day at work hadn’t been an unqualified success, but at least it’d seen the start of a promising new friendship.

The flat he shared with Neil was airy and spacious, which was good as it meant he was able to avoid him for most of the time. He didn’t want to avoid him tonight, though. He wanted him to know just how much he wasn’t wanted. Hopefully, he’d get the message and move into Lytton Village, and then Alex would have the place to himself.

He pushed Spencer against the wall the minute they got inside, grabbed his face, and leaned in for a kiss. Spencer moaned softly, his lips opening up under Alex’s insistently probing tongue. There was something deliciously coy about him. He acted like a shy virgin, and maybe he was, but with his pretty face, Alex doubted it.

He pushed Spencer’s legs open and pressed in close, so that their groins were touching. Spencer wasn’t hard yet, but Alex was sure he could change that.

He heard footsteps on the wood floor behind them and a startled “Oh! Shit!”, and he grinned, never taking his eyes off Spencer.

“Don’t worry – it’s only Neil. He’s not important,” he said, grabbing hold of Spencer’s hand and tugging him towards the bedroom, winking at Neil maliciously as they passed.

“Are you sure this is okay?” Spencer squeaked as they entered the bedroom. “I mean, if Neil is your boyfriend…”

“He’s not. It’s fine.”

“What about your dad? I mean, does he know about you being…” Spencer’s Adam’s apple jerked wildly.

“Bisexual? No, he doesn’t. Are you going to tell him?”

Spencer shook his head, his eyes wide. “Um, not if you tell me not to, sir.”

“I told you already – don’t call me sir.”

“Sorry.” Spencer ducked his head shyly.

Leaving the bedroom door open, because he wanted Neil to hear, he led Spencer over to the bed. His new conquest stood beside it, being adorably passive as Alex slowly unbuttoned his shirt.

“You’re so pretty,” he murmured, nuzzling Spencer’s pale throat,then pressing a flurry of little kisses to that prominent Adam’s apple, enjoying the way it bobbed crazily in response.

Kissing his way along Spencer’s collarbone, he reached the ID tag attached to his shirt and drew back. “Fugly thing. When I own the company, I’ll make sure you get to wear pretty ones; I’ll design them myself.”

“That’s what you like to do – design things?” Spencer asked as Alex sank to his knees in front of him.

“I do, yes. Amongst other things.” Alex grinned up at him suggestively and then opened his trousers. Spencer’s cock was half hard now, and he moaned as Alex wrapped his mouth around it and sucked.

Spencer’s hands fluttered helplessly in the air and then came to rest gently on Alex’s head. He glanced up to find that the young man’s eyes were tightly closed, and his head was thrown back.

“Scream all you like – be as loud as you want – I don’t mind,” Alex encouraged, wanting to send this sweet boy wild with pleasure. If Neil heard, too, then that was a bonus.

Spencer moaned and whimpered as Alex took him to the brink of orgasm – and then purposefully tipped him over the edge. He could feel Spencer’s knees trembling as he came, so he grasped his legs to stop him falling over.

When his orgasm was done, it only took a tiny push to deposit him on the bed. Spencer fell back, looking dazed and sated, a combination that Alex found irresistible. He sat down on the bed beside him, laughing.

“You’re acting as if you’ve never had a blowjob before,” he said, tracing a gentle line along Spencer’s jaw with his finger. Spencer’s Adam’s apple bobbed erratically. “Oh, you haven’t…” Alex purred. “How come, sweetheart? You’re so cute.”
