JJ returned with a canned beer for me and snicked it open, then held it out while he sat beside me. “Talk to me, Holden.”
I sipped the cool beer. “I wish my brother was normal, you know? How amazing it would be if he were here at school with me, or if he’d been there when—” My breath hitched and my eyes stung. Fuck, he’d been nowhere to be found when I’d almost imploded from my injury.
“When you dealt with losing the game you loved so much?” JJ draped his arm over my shoulders and pulled me to his side, brushing his fingers through my hair and kissing my head. “I can’t imagine. It’s like the guy is there, but he’s not. He was sort of nice to us.”
I twisted the beer can in my lap. “Yeah, I swear at the end, right before we left, he almost looked sad we were leaving. It was like he wanted me to stay.” I clenched my jaw through the raw emotion bubbling inside me. “Doesn’t he know I’d do anything to make him sober?” My voice cracked. “Fuck, he’s throwing his life away. He was a good brother when we were kids. He watched out for me then.”
JJ stroked my hair, holding me tightly. “When did it change?”
“When he was about thirteen, I think. Fucking adolescence did him in.” I breathed through the pain in my chest. “I don’t know what happened. Maybe he was involved with the wrong crowd. But that sounds so cliché.”
“Didn’t your parents try to straighten him out?” JJ sipped his Gatorade.
“I guess. I think the change in him dumbfounded them as much as it did me.” Blinking the blurriness from my eyes, I swiped the wetness away. “I’m sorry I’m such a bummer tonight and you had to experience all of that. I really didn’t think he’d show.”
“Holden, I’m here for you. I’m glad I got to meet your brother and see what you’ve been dealing with.” He kissed my head again. “At least he wasn’t a total dick about us.”
“Yeah, I guess he took it better than I expected.” I forced a calming breath. It was good to get this out. Who knew JJ could be such a great listener?
“Do you think his opinion about your dad was correct?” His hand stopped in my hair.
I lifted my head, my gaze searching his face. “I…don’t know. I hope not.” It sure as hell didn’t make me want to tell Dad about us, though. Maybe I’d put off coming out to my parents. “If I don’t tell my parents about us before Thanksgiving, will that be?—”
“No, it’s not a problem, babe. Do it on your own time.” He dipped his gaze, threading his fingers in mine. “I’ll let my mom know you’ll be stopping by but can’t stay.”
My gut pinched. I was letting him down. “I’m sorry, JJ.”
He shrugged. “Whatever. What’s important is we’re together, right?” He gave me a thin-lipped smile. “And tonight, it’s just you and me in my bed.”
“One day earlier than we’d planned.” I focused on his generous lips, so close to mine, and my cock woke. I could forgetall this shit and lose myself in him. “JJ, I don’t think I want any more of this beer. Let’s go to bed.”
“Hell yeah.” With the edge of his lips curling, he stood and pulled me up. “We don’t have to do anything unless you want to.”
“I want to.” I cupped his junk swelling behind his zipper. “Those are some nice jeans. I like how they show off yourass-ets.” I chuckled.
After preparingfor bed and undressing, I climbed between the cool sheets in JJ’s bed and lay on my back. These damn sheets were the best. “What’s the thread count of these sheets?”
Rolling to his side, he said, “I don’t fucking know. My mom bought them, so I’m sure they’re the highest you can get.” Skimming his fingers over my stomach, he kissed my shoulder. “How are you doing?” He shifted closer, his hard cock pressing against my hip.
“Better now.” I turned to face him, gazing deeply into his light blue eyes, the pupils blown. “Come here.” Grabbing his hip, I tugged him closer, our dicks slotting together, and crushed my mouth on his.
With a soft moan, his hard cock jerked against mine, and he grabbed my ass, heightening the pressure and friction.
A shock of pleasure rocketed up my spine. Yep, he was exactly what I needed to forget. Rolling my hips, I rubbed my leaking cock against his.
“Wait, we need lube. Everything’s better with lube.” With a slow smirk, he shifted on top of me and grabbed lube from the nightstand. “Wait till you feel how good this is.” Slathering lube on his fingers, he snuck his hand between us and slicked both our cocks. “Now try it.” He propped his elbows on either side of my head, his legs falling outside of mine.
With my hips rocking, my dick slid against his, the smoothpressure heating my skin. “Kiss me, babe.” Grabbing his nape, I pulled his lips to mine.
While he devoured me in hungry kisses, he rutted against me, his tongue dominating mine.
I broke from his kisses, panting, tension coiling in my gut, my balls already tightening. As pleasure pulsed inside me, my toes curled. “Fucking hell, this feels good.” Sliding my hands down his muscled back, I gripped his ass cheeks.
“Yeah, baby, dig your fingers in.” He bit and nibbled at my jawline, all the way to my neck, and sucked under my ear.
Shivers ran down my side, and sensation jolted through my balls. “Fuck, JJ, getting close.” I arched my head back while thrusting harder against him. Almost there. Dipping my fingers into his crack, I pushed on his hole, and it clenched.
“Oh, fuck, that’s it.” He shuddered over me, his brows tensing and mouth dropping open, while hot cum spurted between us.
