“How’s the team? How’sJalo?”
Scott laughed. “Jalo’s good. Been a real asset. He’s exactly what we needed on the blue line.”
“And in the dressing room?”
“All right, enough.”
“I’m gonna change positions. Hold on,” Kip said. He piled up all the pillows against the headboard and fell back against them. He tossed one of the pillows on the bed near his outstretched knees and placed the laptop on top. “How’s that? Can you see me okay?”
“Yeah. Hi.”
“Hi.”
Scott was clearly just holding his iPad in his hands and staring straight at it.
“You should find a place to put that thing,” Kip suggested. “I wanna see more of you.”
“Oh. Okay. Um... Oh! I’ve got an idea.”
Scott put the iPad down and Kip was left looking at the ceiling of Scott’s hotel room. He heard a rumbling, and then the iPad was picked up and set down on something.
“I pulled the rolling desk chair over,” Scott explained, “next to the bed here. I can put the iPad on that with the little stand and it should be a good angle. I think.”
He stretched out on the bed and now Kip could see him from head to thighs.
“That’s better,” Kip said. “God, you’re enormous.”
“Well, I’m no Matti Jalo—”
“You’re perfect. It was so hot watching you win that shootout the other night. You have no idea.”
“Oh yeah?”
“Mm. Been thinking a lot about the other night...on the phone.”
“Me too. A whole lot, actually. Can’t believe I said some of those things.”
“You were incredible. So fucking sexy.”
Scott smiled and probably blushed. It was hard to tell.
“Nice hotel?” Kip asked.
“It’s all right.”
“You’re not even a little turned on right now, are you?”
“I’m nervous! I said!”
“All right,” Kip sighed, then smiled. “You’re adorable, you know that?”
Scott grinned and shook his head.
“Seriously,” Kip said. “People think you’re all tough, but look at you, all blushing and jittery about a bit of webcam action.”
“Look, Grady...”
“I can’t believe this was the same man who was giving me orders over the phone the other night. Where’d that guy go?”
