LIVE.
Yeah, that they could do.
And they would.
Gamble also gave Poe a gift.
“And we should name any boy we have Hemmingway, so the memory of your brother lives forever. It’s only right sincehe’s the reason this all happened. We wouldn’t be a couple had he not stolen that key.”
Poe stopped him.
“Oh, we would have because you wore me down. I would have quit my practice and fallen into bed with you either way. You’re a very attractive man, Gamble, and I was weak. Clearly.”
The wicked grin told the tale.
“Well, I do like you weak and helpless to my wicked ways,” he teased.
Poe laughed and ate more of his omelet.
“Oh, no. A hot man trying to have sex with me. I shouldn’t fight him at all because clearly, I’m a whore and like it.”
Gamble laughed.
“But you’re my whore.”
Well, if the man performed like earlier each time they fell into bed, sign him up.
Poe wasn’t an idiot.
Someone had a truly energetic cock.
As they finished up their food, Gamble knew what they needed to do.
Well, he knew what he needed to do.
He still had to finish searching for the crypto key before they likely bailed after the wake.

“How about this?” Gamble asked. “I’ll go do the dishes, and clean up. You run a bath, and I’ll be back. It’s early, but you’ve had a shit few days.”
“And after that?” Poe asked, hopefully.
“Oh, I think you know where I want to go,” he admitted. He was thinking about a family, and what he and Poe had together.
“So bed?” Poe asked, making sure they were both on the same page.
Gamble nodded.
Only, he knew this man.
There was something he was hiding.
That’s when it hit him.
“You’re going to continue to search and do it without me, aren’t you?” he asked.
Never let it be said that his man wasn’t smart. Saddling up with a doctor was going to be a wild ride. There would be no pulling the wool over his eyes.
