Page 38 of Starting Over in Cedarwood

Kevin whimpered. “So good.”

He agreed. Shaun braced his knees on the couch and one hand on the back of the sofa as he began to thrust. He moved in and out, slowly to start, then he built into a steady cadence. The sound of skin on skin seemed so loud in the air.

Kevin let go of his left leg and grasped Shaun’s arm. He bucked, welcoming Shaun deeper into him.

Heat started low in Shaun’s belly. His limbs tingled and his thoughts blurred. The only thing that mattered right now was this moment. Kevin was the center of his universe.

A shudder rocked Kevin. He gritted his teeth. “Uh…” He dug his blunt nails into Shaun’s arm.

“Fuck, come with me.” Shaun trembled. It wasn’t like he could hold back—not now. He increased the speed of his thrust and lost himself in the excitement of fucking Kevin. His movements turned feral. He curled over Kevin and kissed him. “Come for me.”

Kevin let go of Shaun’s arm and toyed with his balls. Pink infused his cheeks and he whimpered.

“Let go,” Shaun murmured against Kevin’s mouth. “Do it.” He couldn’t hold back.

Kevin gasped and stroked hard on his cock. “Shaun.”

Feeling Kevin tighten around him again and seeing the pure bliss in his face pushed Shaun over the edge. He surged into him, fucking Kevin hard and fast. His resistance shredded and the orgasm washed over him. His entire body seemed to float. He sank into Kevin and kissed him hard.

“Wow.” Kevin let go of his leg and embraced Shaun. “Mind. Blown.”

Shaun slowed, then pulled out and stretched on top of him. Kevin’s breath warmed his skin. “You said it.”

Kevin panted. “Holy shit.”

Shaun pressed his face to Kevin’s throat. “Uh-huh.” He still couldn’t think straight. Instead, he seemed to be floating—or at least it felt true.

“You’re staying over tonight, yes?” Kevin petted Shaun’s hair. “I want you to stay.”

“Yes.” He couldn’t go if he tried.” Take me to bed.”

“We had sex.” Kevin chuckled. “And you’re holding me down.”

“Sorry,” Shaun said. “You’re so perfect to hold.” He climbed off him and strode to the kitchen to remove the condom.

Kevin stood and held out his hand when Shaun returned. Once Shaun twined their fingers, Kevin directed him to the bedroom.

Shaun collapsed on the bed. His muscle ached and his bell was full, but his heart was light. He had Kevin. He couldn’t ask for more.

Kevin hurried around the apartment, picking up the clothes and ensuring the door was locked. He checked to be sure he had his keys, wallet and phone accounted for, then turned off the lights and carried the clothes to the bedroom.

“You’re such a neat freak.” Shaun propped himself up on his elbow. “Nerdy, too, but I like it. I need someone to encourage me to clean up after myself.”

He tossed the clothes onto the chair, then slid into bed. “Just remember, I will clean the toilet, but it’s not my favorite chore.”

Shaun reclined on the bed. “Ah, you get to be the housekeeping.” He waited until Kevin was in bed with him and tangled in his embrace before he spoke. “I’m all for sharing the chores, so I’m fine with cleaning the toilet.”

“Good.” Kevin twined their legs, then sighed. “Bet you never thought you’d share your bed with me and my cat.”

“I sort of had a feeling it’d happen.” Shaun kissed Kevin’s knuckles. “I don’t mind. He’s part of your family and he doesn’t understand he’s being pushy. As far as he’s concerned, he belongs here.”

“It’s his bed when I’m at work.”

“See?” Shaun petted Leo. “I hope he likes me.”

“He does. If he didn’t, he would’ve bitten you by now, and he hasn’t.’” Kevin admired how Leo and Shaun got on together. They were like a little family.
