Clearly, they would have to be way more discreet. Especially now the watchful eye of Javier was on them.
“Come into the gay soup,” Tito shouted.
Jonas stepped into the water. It was the perfect temperature to give his muscles instant relaxation. He grinned to himself when he remembered some of the things he and Adam had got up to in here. He would absolutely love to shock them.
“Ah, amazing,” Jonas said. “Why don’t we have one of these at the apartments?”
“I’m going to have a pool in my next place,” Tito announced. “What about you, Noah?”
Noah shook his head. “I told you. I want somewhere small with a view.”
“Mr Imaginative,” Tito replied. “You have tons of cash.”
“My dad always told me to save as much as possible,” Noah said. “You never know what the future holds.”
“Sounds boring to me,” Tito replied.
Poor Noah was no match for Tito. He seemed to know everything. Jonas admired his confidence, even if it got annoying at times.
“How’s things in your world, Udo?” Jonas asked.
Udo leant back and closed his eyes. “Pretty fucking good. We’re talking about moving in together. I rent now and it seems a waste of time buying my own place.”
“I heard Steven has a nice pad,” Jonas replied.
“It’s amazing. I’m there most of the time anyway. What kind of house are you thinking of getting, Noah.”
The young lad sighed. “I want to build a place. Nothing fancy. A couple of bedrooms and a massive lounge. Then I can sit and watch the view.”
Tito groaned. “Then do it. You’ve been banging on about this for weeks.”
“How am I supposed to do that?”
“Find a plot of land that you like. Buy it. Get an architect. Job done.”
Edi was at the side of the jacuzzi. “Is there room for another?”
“Of course there is,” Udo said, shifting up. “Come on in.”
The young player slid into the water and sighed.
“I needed this,” he said.
Jonas wasn’t sure if Edi was unaware he was surrounded by all the gay players or if he didn’t care. He stole a glance in Adam’s direction. He was fixed on Edi. Pride all over his face.
God I love him.
“I think it sounds exciting,” Edi said to Noah. “Building your own place, I mean. Then you get to choose everything. I’d much rather do that.”
Noah positively beamed. “Thanks, Edi.”
“If you’re all getting houses next season, does that mean you are staying?” Edi asked.
“Sounds like it,” Jonas replied.
“I’m glad.”
Jonas’ eye caught Adam getting out of the pool. The way the droplets of water ran down his muscular body made Jonas’ balls ache.
