“Excuse me,” Scott said. “We’re sat here.”
“Yeah, we are,” Eddie replied. “I’m not sure we should be. Come on, there’s a quiz machine over there with our names on it.”
“But—”
Eddie slid out of the booth and held his hand to Scott. “Come on, brains. Let’s win some cash and we can spend it on booze.”
Scott huffed. “Fine.”
“Thanks,” Danny said, catching Eddie’s eye.
Eddie led a grumbling Scott away.
“So?” Danny said.
God, Tyler looked movie-star gorgeous. His eyes shone in thelow light. Danny desperately wanted to know what it would be like to kiss him. Just once.
“So what?” Tyler replied. A trace of a smile on his lips.
“Are you going to be all right living with Eddie and Scott? They have quite the reputation, you know.”
Tyler smirked. “Who’s to say I haven’t? I’ve only been here a week.”
Danny’s stomach sank. He hadn’t had Tyler down as the kind of guy who kept a tally of the people he’d slept with. “Oh, of course. You’re right.”
Tyler couldn’t hold his amusement in. “Your face. I’m no saint but my headboard doesn’t look like it has woodworm from all the notches. Those two can do what they like. They’re fun and I suspect a lot more decent than they’re willing to let on.”
Danny glanced over at them squabbling at the machine.
“I can see that. They’ve always been nice to me. I’d invest in some decent headphones. I’m not sure Scott has any other settings than full on. Could be a bit annoying first thing.”
“Fair point. Maybe I’ll get a coffee machine for my room. So I can be fully caffeine enabled before I set foot out of the door.”
Danny turned to Tyler. “I’m glad I came into this bar now. And please don’t do the movie quote. Of all the bars or whatever it is.”
“As if. Thing is, I was going to message you. Scott persuaded me that it wouldn’t hurt.”
“Only if you wanted it to.”
“That kind of talk makes me lose my train of thought.”
Danny moved a little closer. “I’m still very much on the right track. Maybe my thoughts are different to yours.”
“Maybe I should change lines.”
“Maybe you should.”
To his joy, Tyler blushed. It only served to make him sexier.
“I really want to kiss you,” Danny said.
“Maybe you should.”
Danny instantly closed the gap between them. He pressed hislips to Tyler’s. Danny’s citrus cologne filled Tyler’s nostrils. He could taste the lager on Danny’s tongue.
Danny laid his hand in Tyler’s lap. Tyler took hold of it and squeezed. That tiny bit of physical contact made Danny’s cock spring to life.
The kiss became more heated. Their breath mingling as they explored each other’s mouths. Eventually, Danny pulled back for air.
