Gage rewarded me with a big smile this time. He reached out tentatively and pressed his hands against my chest. I knew he could feel my heart racing under my skin. “I love you, too, Devin,” he whispered.
I leaned down and slid my arms around Gage’s small waist and pulled him up off the ground, sweeping into his lips for a kiss. Just one light kiss was all I meant to take, but the second I felt Gage’s soft lips I lost control and pressed into him.
I wasn’t alone in my feelings, I realized, as I felt Gage shudder against me. Electricity coursed through us as we both leaned in for more. I nipped at his lips and felt Gage moan into my mouth.
Before I got completely carried away, I pulled back and looked at the sexy man in my arms. His eyes were half-closed and his pink lips were wet from our kiss. I almost groaned out loud.
My eyes swept the elevator and I realized we were putting on a show. I let Gage slide back down to the floor, feeling his hard little body glide along mine, but I didn’t let go. I pulled him close and smiled down at him and then looked back at the crowd, shooting them an “I DARE you to say one ugly word to us” look. Nobody seemed to be upset.
In fact, I realized that one of my basketball teammates was on the elevator and he was grinning. I smiled back and turned away. I didn’t care who knew. Actually, scratch that. I did care. I wanted everybody to know I was in love with Gage. And that he was mine.
Two girls finally moved to step out of the elevator and before the doors closed, the blonde turned and spoke. “I hope that I find a man as crazy about me! That was beautiful!”
She was right. Loving him was a beautiful thing. I would do anything to show him that. And he loved me! My heart was doing a jig as I realized how silly we had been to hide our feelings. I wanted to make up for lost time, starting immediately!
The elevator was quiet, but we both knew everyone was still watching us. The doors opened on our floor and I grabbed Gage’s hand and pulled him down the hall to our door. My hands were shaking so badly, I barely got the key in the knob. But it finally clicked and I was able to push the door open, pulling Gage with me into our darkened room.

Gage’s POV
Devin pressed me roughly against the back of the door as it closed. His lips pressed against mine in a passionate kiss. He was aggressive as he took possession of my mouth, his tongue sliding between my lips and tangling with mine. I slid my arms around Devin’s neck and held on as the man of my dreams pulled me up off the ground until I was level with him. I loved it and tried to press harder into his chest, while I wrapped my legs around his waist.
Devin pulled back a little and tugged at my bottom lip with his teeth. “Damn! I have wanted to taste you for so long, Gage.”
I heard him moan right before he claimed my mouth again, his lips pressing against mine with an urgency I had never experienced. His hot tongue swept into my mouth again and when it touched my tongue, I almost jumped at the heat and desire I felt. He was wild with his need as he plunged his tongue in over and over into my mouth, while his hands roamed over my neck and twisted into my hair, tilting my head a little. When I felt his hand in my hair, pulling hard, I moaned loudly. It was so hot and his touch was driving me mad!
He pulled back a little and looked at me. “Mm, you like that? You like it when I pull your hair?”
I tried to speak, but it came out as a groan as he began to place small, hot little kisses down my cheek. “Ungh.”
Devin chuckled into my cheek as he kept up his assault on my skin, raining kisses along my jaw, down my neck and then stopped and nipped at the curve in my neck, before suckling that sweet spot at the base of my neck. I gasped and he sucked a little harder, pulling my skin into his hot, wet mouth.
Our eyes had adjusted to the darkness a little and Devin stepped back, pulling me with him, until we were at my bed. Gently, he turned around and pushed me back onto the bed. I moved until I was stretched out on my side and patted the space next to me.
Devin sat down and we stared into each other’s eyes for a minute. The room felt energized; heated.
“Is this really happening?” I whispered.
“Nothing is going to happen that you don’t want to happen, ok? We stop anytime you say. You are in control, Gage.” Devin’s voice was husky. Low.
I trusted him, but also knew there was no way I could keep myself from giving myself over completely to Devin if he wanted me. I needed him and that raw need drove me forward. I grabbed his hand and pulled him down, feeling him sink into the bed next to me. I nuzzled into his neck and nibbled on his smooth skin. He moaned quietly. I flicked small feathery licks up his neck to his jawline while I ran my fingers up into his soft, silky hair. God, how many times had I wanted to do this? I felt empowered as he leaned into me and I reached up and licked his earlobe before suckling it gently.
I heard a sharp intake of breath before his whispered words blew across my skin. “Gage… oh, god, Gage…”
I smiled again and grew bolder, letting my hands slide over his shoulders and down his arms. Suddenly, Devin grabbed me around the waist and pulled me on top of him, moving so that his back was pressed against the bed and I was held tightly against his chest. His body was hard everywhere and I felt almost drunk with lust as I pulled back and looked at him.
“You drive me crazy, Gage,” he growled out. “I have spent months devouring you in my dreams. Fuck! Everything you do turns me on.Everything,Gage.” He whispered his words into the dark as he slid his hands around to my back and began tugging at my hoodie.
I knew what he wanted and sat up, straddling his flat stomach, helping him yank the hoodie off and letting Devin toss it across the room. I leaned down to nibble on his neck and Devin’s hands stopped me. “I need to touch you. Please. Please let me touch your skin, Gage. I need it.” His hands played at the hem of my t-shirt, wanting to lift it up, but waiting for me to give him permission.
Hearing Devin’s husky voice as he whispered his need excited me. I have never felt sexy in my life, but clearly Devin thought I was. I felt almost euphoric as I helped him lift my shirt over my head and toss it on the ground, feeling his hands skim my chest as my shirt rose to reveal more and more skin. I stilled for a moment, letting this sexy man look at my body. For the first time in my life, I could see that someone appreciated my body; that he took pleasure from seeing me and touching me. I felt desired and gave in to the sensations churning through my body. Devin’s eyes darkened as his hands trailed across my chest and down to my stomach and back up. My body literally hummed with desire.
I gasped as Devin’s fingers flicked against my sensitive nipples, a personal hot spot for me.
“You like that?”
“God, yes,” I sighed as Devin swirled his fingers around my nipples. His feathery light touches made me hungry for more and I moaned loudly.
