DANIEL
Groaning, I thrust my hips upwards as I reach for my cock. The sting of a slap accompanied by throaty laughter filters through my sleep fogged brain. Peeling open my eyes, I stare up at Cosmo, who’s leaning over me. His smile’s pure filth and before I know it, he straddles me.
“Dreaming about me?” His brows arch.
His hair’s plastered to his head and a few water droplets cling to his shoulders and naked, smooth chest. Around his waist is a plain white towel; the front’s flapped open leaving me in no doubt as to what he wants. The last vestiges of sleep drop away, leavingmein no doubt about what I want, too.
I wrap my palm around his shaft, and a shiver runs through him as he arches his back and pushes himself into my tunnelled fist. Cosmo drops his head back, and a low and growly moan escapes him. My breath catches deep in my throat. He looks wild and free and full of animal grace. He rolls his hips, thrusting into my hand, his cock hot and damp and slippery with pre-cum.
“Ah, yes,” he mutters — and stills. I lose my rhythm and he slides off me.
What?
He sees the confusion in my face, and laughs.
“Don’t look so shocked. I’ve got other plans for us this morning.”
He tugs at the towel already hanging low on his hips. It slips to the floor. Standing naked before me he wraps his fist around his cock, his strokes long and lazy as a shuddering moan fills the bedroom that comes not from Cosmo but from me. His strokes don’t falter as he gazes at me through half closed eyes as his lips lift in a smirky little smile.
I reach for him, and he steps back.
Fucking little prick tease.
“The only plan I’m interested in is you getting over here so I can get my hands on you. Or my mouth.” My skin tingles with anticipation as my cock begs for attention.
“Much as I love both your hand and your mouth, they’re not what I want.” His voice is thick and heavy, and tinged with breathlessness.
He’s still stroking himself, still thumbing the tip of his cock and it’s hard to concentrate, but there’s something in his voice that makes me tear my eyes away and look up at him. There’s a stillness to his face as his eyes meet mine.
“Then what is it you do want?”
I already know the answer. I see it in the dark smile that’s lifting his lips, but more, I feel it in the nerve endings sparking and heating throughout my body. I feel it in the shortness of my breath and the sweat beading across my hot, prickling skin. And I feel it in the hard pulse of my cock.
“I want you to fuck me, Daniel. I want you to fuck me here in my bed.”
He’s still stroking his cock, but his rhythm has slowed as he watches me.
What’s he wondering? That I’ll shake my head and say no? My heart’s hammering so hard my ribs must surely crack and break. How could I say no when I want it so damn much?
But I need to say aloud what he already knows.
“I’ve never—”
“Good.” His voice is vehement. “Because that means we can give each other something nobody else ever has.”
I swallow as I stare up at him. My body aches for it, but my mind is racing and full of questions and doubts, and I’m like a gawky teenager facing my first time. I want to run as much as I want to grab everything that’s for the taking, and I don’t know which will win out. My cock starts to soften.
“Daniel?”
My name on his lips is smooth and caressing, and tinged with concern. The side of the bed dips as he sits next to me.
“Not a good start.” I look down at my now retreating dick.
“It’s a big moment for him, so of course he’s going to be a little bit nervous.”
I have to laugh. “Yes, him and me both.”
Cosmo tilts my chin up with a finger. “If you’re unsure, or it’s not what you want, then we don’t have to. I won’t force you into something you’re not ready for.” He leans in and brushes his lips across mine. It’s a soft kiss, full of warmth, his touch slowing and calming the rampaging beat of my heart.
