There was something sweet and endearing about watching the boy blush and squirm.
“It does. This series has a great storyline… as well as some really hot… steamy scenes.” Lucas let out a chuckle. “Shut up. It’s not like you don’t readgirliemagazines for their riveting…plots.”
Another smile.
Caden shrugged his shoulders. “I can’t help it. The suspense of turning that page and wondering just how big the woman’s knockers are going to be has me just…”
“Can I get you gentlemen anything?” the bored waitress from behind the counter asked, completely ruining the back-and-forth banter they had finally established.
The bitch was getting no tip.
“Just a burger and fries for me. How about you,Mr. Romance?”
Lucas’s cheeks flushed once again.
Why was all this teasing so much fun?
“I’ll just have a minestrone soup, please.”
Caden frowned at the boy.
“Where’s the meat? Where’s the carbs?”
“There are carbs in the pasta shells,” Lucas noted.
Caden shook his head.
Perhaps the kid was on a tight budget. He should lay off the teasing.
“Oh, and two beers. No, wait, one beer and…” Caden’s voice trailed off as he gestured toward Lucas, waiting for his response.
“Oh, nothing for me.”
“Come on, Mr. Romance. I’m payin’ for dinner. So let’s get shit-faced, and you can tell me all the different ways Mr. Big Dick fucks his little twink in your book.” Caden gave him a teasing smirk.
Lucas looked mortified. He almost felt guilty but actually didn’t.
The boy finally turned toward the waitress, most likely realizing that the faster he ordered a drink, the faster she would leave, and his humiliation would end.
“I’ll have a beer as well. Thanks.”
The waitress gave a nod, then disappeared into the back of the diner.
“Okay, so tell me about your book,” Caden asked, interlocking his fingers and leaning forward on the table. He felt like an eager young schoolboy about to learn all the cheat codes in his favorite video game.
Lucas raised an eyebrow as he stared at Caden awkwardly.
“Why would a straight man want to hear all about how some twink gets his hole stretched out by some bouncer at a biker bar?”
Now it was Cade’s turn to blush.
“Really? It’s about a bouncer?” What were the chances? And did this mean that Lucas wanted his— Then he noticed the evil smirk on Lucas’s face. “You’re pulling my leg.”
Chuckling, Lucas leaned back in his seat and folded his arms across his chest.
“Smooth. So, fine. If you won’t tell me about your hot and steamy sex book, then tell me a bit about yourself. Where are you from originally?”
Lucas’s breath caught in his chest. He had a feeling that the boy was going to try and change the subject.
