“I do.”
“You’ve drunk too much, Casey.Let me take you outside and I’ll get you a cab.”
“I’m not ready to leave.”
“Then come back to the table and have some coffee.”
“After this dance.”
“I can’t dance.”
“They’re playing a slow one.Just follow me.”
“And then you’ll come sit down?”
“Cross my heart, hope to die.”
Lee sighed with resignation.He reached for the waistband of my jeans.For a second I thought he was going to touch me and my pulse raced.But he very chastely buttoned me up.I grinned at him.“You’re such a gentleman.”
He smiled and moved into my arms.We started to sway to the music.It felt good.Better than I imagined.Lee’s hard dick pressed against my thigh so I knew he wasn’t entirely unaffected by me.I put my hands on the small of his back and pulled him closer.He didn’t protest, so I took it further.I slipped a hand down his pants and under his briefs to squeeze his bare ass.Lee’s body tensed in my arms, but he didn’t say anything.I took that as acceptance and I kept massaging his cheek.Maybe he liked what he saw at the studio the other day.
Lee leaned his head against my shoulder and I whispered in his ear.“You lied to me.You’re a great dancer.”
He gasped when I traced the crease of his ass.My finger teased his hole, and then slid inside.“Stop,” he whispered.“Let’s go sit down.”
“The song isn’t over.”I nipped his earlobe, and licked the tender skin below his ear.I swear I heard him moan.Our bodies swayed as if we were one.He rubbed his groin against me and my head spun.I swear I felt butterfly wings flutter in my chest.If this went on any longer, I feared I might come in my pants.This had never happened to me before.I wanted to dance with him all night.But the music ended and Lee disentangled himself from my arms.
He was breathing a little heavier and he looked flushed.“Come on, Casey.You promised you’d sit down.”He attempted to pull me off the dance floor.
“One more dance.”
“Do you have a hard time keeping your promises?”
“No.”I had promised, but I would have followed him anyway.I wanted to fuck him and I was hoping he’d come home with me tonight.“I always keep my word.”
Joey was still dancing.Paul was alone at the table.I sat on his right.Instead of sitting next to me, Lee sat on his left.I frowned, but he didn’t look at me.He focused on Paul.“Hey, Paul.”
“Hi, Lee.You surprised me.I’ve never seen you dance before.”
“And you probably won’t see it again.I was just trying to get Casey off the floor.”
“Bullshit,” I said.“He wanted to cop a feel.”They both ignored me.
Paul opted to change the subject.“What did you think of the apartment, Lee?”
Lee brightened and gave him a thumb up.“It’s perfect.The building has laundry facilities and a pool.Best of all, the second bedroom is big enough for a studio.I signed the lease.That’s what took me so long.Looks like you’re free of me at last, Paul.”
Paul pretended to frown.“Am I supposed to be happy?My apartment has never been so clean.”
“I’ll stop by once in a while and pick up after you,” Lee said.“I owe you that much.”
So Lee was a neat freak.It didn’t surprise me.“Did you sign a yearly lease?”I asked him.
“No, it’s month to month.”
It surprised me that he hadn’t committed for the year.“So you’re still undecided about staying here in LaLa Land?”
“I just want to be sure before I put down roots.”
