Ty leaned forward and his nostrils flared angrily "Maybe there’s a lot of shit you miss with your head so far up your ass," he snarled

Zane just s that looked like pleasure e of amuse back against the headboard suspiciously "Don’t look at me like that," he muttered

"Why not?" Zane asked

"Because," Ty huffed as he rolled off the bed and began to pace restlessly

Zane shook his head slowly, still watching hih he didn’tposition on the end of the bed

Ty shot hi He crossed his arms defiantly and pursed his lips to see what Zane would do But the other h and raised an eyebrow

Ty snorted and looked at him incredulously "Go fuck yourself," he advised

"I’d rather fuck you," Zane drawled TyZane grinned and sprawled back on the bed "Well, whenever," he added, tipping his head back against the headboard to look at the ceiling

"So is the fucking a part of your little plan, too?" Ty asked suddenly

Zane brought his chin down and focused on Ty "I want to fuck you, regardless," he said "You have any idea how far you’ve gotten under ain, the hairs on Ty’s arhtly He shook his head wordlessly and scowled

"Godda at you," Zane snapped

"Don’t tell me you haven’t noticed"

Ty took an involuntary step back and blinked at Zane stupidly "I didn’t," he insisted and shook his head as he finally looked away

Zane cocked his head "Does that bother you?" he asked, voice revealing his surprise

"No," Ty answered defensively "I just didn’trealize"

"Didn’t realize what?" Zane asked softly, sitting up to lean his elbows on his knees

Ty was slowly regaining his balance, and as he did so he smiled slowly "That you were so easy," he answered with a sain "Blarew serious once more and took a step closer "Is it the same?" he asked softly

The smile on Zane’s face dimmed "Not even remotely close to you"

Ty stopped as Zane spoke and then took another step closer "Do you have any idea," he said in a low voice, "how far you’ve gotten under my skin?"

Zane’s dark eyes focused on him "How? You don’t believe the sa soft, Zane reached up to touch Ty’s hand, though he didn’t interfere with its hed softly and bent over, dropping his hands to lean on Zane’s thighs He slid the up at hi at my place," he said suddenly

"She was so upset because I fucked her, then spent the rest of the night on the balcony with a beer and a really fucking rare cigar Thinking about you"

Zane could feel his heart pounding in the quiet He wondered if Ty could hear it Heabout what?" he asked quietly "Where I was?"

"And who and what you were doing," Ty answered with a slow nod

"What we had done, e should have done…"

"I should have…" Zane stopped and shook his head "I thought about you," he admitted

"You should have what?" Ty pressed softly

Zane sighed and closed his eyes "I should have stayed," he breathed

"I just didn’t kno"

Ty watched hi "You couldn’t have stayed," he finally responded

"I know," Zane answered "Doesn’t mean I didn’t think about it"

Ty re to say

He pulled Zane’s hand toward him and kissed the inside of his wrist i, and Ty could feel it ju under his lips "Why are you nervous?" he whispered in confusion

Taking a deep breath, Zane let out his greatest fear "What if so happens to you?"
