Evan had played hard that game but still had too much energy, so he bypassed the showers and went to the small gym at the arena to run until he couldn’t feel his feet anymore.That was normal, right?

Barczyk
Come over?
Abernathy
I’m not good company right now
Barczyk
You need to unwind
I saw you in a post-game interview after the otters
You looked like you either needed to go five rounds in a ring or get laid
Lucky for you I’m happy to help with both
Abernathy
I’m fine
Proud of himselffor resisting temptation for once this goddamned season, Evan was about to head to bed to toss and turn for a few hours, when instead of getting another text message, his phone rang.
He stared at Barczyk’s name on the screen, willing himself to let it go to voicemail.He cracked after five seconds.
“I said I’m?—“
“Evan.”
That shut him up.
“Come fuck me,” Barczyk said.“I’m hard, I’m open, and I’m waiting for someone to tire me out.”
Evan swallowed so loudly he was sure Barczyk could hear it.
“I didn’t do anything to earn it,” he said.Not because it wasn’t tempting, but that was what they did, right?All these scenarios to make it okay.Evan needed to practice fighting, or he was learning how to give blowjobs, or he’d won a bet.That was their relationship.
Wasn’t it?
“Earn it?”Barczyk’s breathy chuckle had Evan reaching for his dick.That sound should be illegal.“I’m sure I can think of a thing or two.”
Evan wavered.He couldn’t remember why he’d been against this, why he’d been trying to put space between them when Barczyk was whispering in his ear that he wanted Evan.
“You got other plans, that’s fine,” Barczyk said.“But if you’re just sitting at your place doing nothing, I promise I can show you a good time.”
“I—”
“I’m willing to beg.On my knees, on my back, however you want me, I’ll beg.Evan, please.”
“I’ll be there in twenty minutes.”
“The door’s unlocked.”
