A deep groan of pleasure rumbles through me, and I lean my head back on the couch, exposing myself to him. Those devious little hands make their way back to my tee shirt, pulling and tugging at the hem trying to expose more of my skin.
“I don’t trust anything you have to say, you don’t even eat cake, Seff. Your judgement can’t be trusted. Oh, why, hello, what do we have here?” There is the dull thud of the hotel room door shutting.
“Idoeat cake, just notthatkinda ca—”
Seff’s response is cut off as he smacks into the gawking Seldon, gleefully taking in the way Theo is astride me. With an embarrassed little squawk Theo jumps off my lap and onto the arm of the couch, escaping my arms like I’m on fire.
I would laugh, but his escape has just exposed me, and my dick, as it stands proudly straining against my underwear in my open jeans, to our friends. One of whom is myemployee.
“Fuck’s sake.” I mutter under my breath, quickly fumbling with my pants to cover myself, while Theo wipes at his kiss swollen mouth with the back of his hand.
Seff snickers and at least gives me the dignity of turning away to inspect the hotel room to give me a moment. Seldon just winks, the saucy shithead.
“How did you two get in here?”
“You left a key at the desk for us in case we got here before you. Remember?”
No. I obviously don't remember that but rather than admit it, I just grunt like an animal.
Now that I'm all covered up, I finally take a proper look at Seldon and Seff, who’s walked back into the living area, now holding four opened beers. Seff is in baggy jeans that sit obscenely low on his ass, showing the band of his underwear; a white tee shirt that is stretched so tight across his body it is nearly see through; and, naturally, his navy baseball cap backwards on his shaggy sandy brown waves. Knowing him like I do, I’m pretty sure he’s all set for tonight.
Considering Seldon is holding a giant black duffle bag and is in plain low-slung jeans and a peach baby doll top, I’m guessing he still needs to get ready.
“Oh, yeah. I forgot. Sorry.” Theo still sounds a little strung out on lust and not at all sorry. His hand drifts back to my shoulder, kneading it gently, like he can’t stop touching me. Seldon drops the bag where he’s standing and throws himself dramatically onto the other two-seater.
“Yeah, you totally sound it. Thanks.” Seldon accepts the beer Seff hands him as he passes them round and rolls his eyes.
When Seff parks himself next to Seldon on the couch, the fox shifter makes himself comfortable, lying back on the armrest and throwing his legs up over Seff’s lap, purring when Seff strokes his calf over his jeans.
Considering Seff’s reaction at the bonfire and the numerous abysmal dates, I am pretty sure that nothing is happening between them. It’s one of those shifter touchy feely things. They are always an affectionate bunch.
“Yeah right, anyway, you guys ready to party tonight?” Seff claps his hands and rubs them together. I nod and take a swig of my beer.
“Yeah, it’s been a while since I’ve been to Slash. Should be a good one.” I feel the heat of Theo’s confused stare on the side of my head and, sure enough, when I turn to him, his disbelief is written all over his face.
“I know you said that you used to party but…” He scrunches up his nose a little with a laugh. “I don’t see it.”
Seldon and Seff snicker from the other couch. And I throw a cushion at them. Unfortunately Seff catches it, but then I turn back to my kind-of, sort-of, not-actual boyfriend, poking his knee playfully.
“What do you mean you don’t see it, brat?”
He laughs louder this time, his face scrunches up even more, making his pointed ears twitch.
“I dunno, you’re all old and serious. Like, the tavern, yeah, I get it. But a club? Dancing? Nah.”
There is a wicked, teasing glimmer in his eye, like he is daring me to punish him for needling me in front of our friends. My eyes narrow, holding his gaze, and I amverytempted to take the dare. His tongue darts out to lick his lips before his teeth come down to bite onto the lower one. My eyes track the movement like a hunter watching its prey, and my cock starts to firm up again as the air between us crackles with electricity and wanting.My hand is halfway to him, to pull him to me when a voice clears from the other couch.
“Yeah, so if you guys are gonna keep this up all night, I’m going to need you to turn it into a group thing or knock it off, kay? Some of us are having a dry spell and don’t need their friends rubbing their noses in it.”
“Oh, Seffy, babe, you know that if you’re ever in need, I’m always here for you. Even if you do have appalling opinions on desserts.” Seldon pats Seff’s shoulder in a way that starts off comforting, but he immediately gets distracted by the size of the bulging bicep and starts fondling it instead.
“Right, andwe’rethe problem.” Theo drains the last of his beer and jumps up from the couch.
“I’m going to shower, and then we can start getting ready. You guys try not to kill each other.” He eyes Seldon still fondling Seff’s arm. “Or get weird.”
“Perfect. And while we’re getting ready, I can tell you all about the absolute disaster of a date I rescued Seff from this afternoon. Honestly, it was award-worthy.” Seff groans loudly, punctuating the sound with loud exaggerated sobs muffled by his big hands covering his face. Seldon elbows Seff in the chest as he now slumps over the fox shifter.
“Cannot wait. Give me fifteen, then you can tell me everything.” You can hear the smile in Theo’s sing-song voice as he disappears into the bedroom.
