Hunt and Pray (15 page)

So, they had braved tears and hugs and then boarded a plane early one morning and made their way back to Colorado Springs.

They hadn’t really discussed what was going to happen once they had to return to their real lives, both of them a little afraid of the answer the other would give.

When they got off the plane, however, Chance had taken Drew’s hand. After collecting their bags, they both climbed into the same cab, and Drew leaned over the front seat to give the driver his address. They’d held hands the whole way, and Drew hadn’t let go when they’d arrived at his apartment.

Chance had obediently slid across the seat and out of the cab before helping Drew empty the bags from the trunk. Drew had taken no chances, deliberately grabbing Chance’s duffel, leaving no doubt as to what he wanted.

They’d made their way inside and dumped their bags on the living room floor. Chance had wandered around nervously for a few minutes, picking up pictures and books, familiarizing himself with Drew’s apartment, until he found himself face-to-face with Drew once more.

Chance had looked down at Drew, their eyes meeting, and Drew had been struck by the openness he saw there. He’d reached up and curled his hand around the back of Chance’s neck and pulled him down for a soft kiss that quickly turned passionate.

One of Chance’s big hands had pressed between Drew’s shoulder blades, holding him close, while the other arm had settled across the top of his ass, his hand curled tightly around Drew’s hip.

They’d ground against each other lazily, letting themselves enjoy the feeling of their bodies moving together, until Chance pulled back just enough to look into Drew’s eyes once again.

“Are you sure about this, Drew?” Chance’s voice rumbled out of his throat, strained with the effort of holding himself under control.

Drew let his free hand slide down Chance’s back and used it to push them closer together. “I’ve got promises to keep, Chance. I plan on taking total advantage of that.”

Chance smiled and bent to kiss him again. Drew slipped his tongue into Chance’s willing mouth, touching and tasting until they were both groaning and needed to breathe.

Drew pulled away this time and took a step back, smirking when Chance whined in disappointment.

That changed when Drew grabbed the hem of his T-shirt and pulled it over his head. Chance’s hands twitched at his side, and Drew knew Chance was having a hard time holding himself back from touching. He didn’t intend to make it any easier on him.

He stepped out of his sneakers and bent to pull off his socks, knowing Chance’s gaze hadn’t left him once. He could feel those eyes on him like a physical touch, and it made him feel sexy and wanted.

When his hands moved to his jeans, Chance whimpered and took a small step forward before freezing where he was at a glance from Drew.

“Just let me…,” Drew whispered quietly.

Chance nodded, clenching his fists at his sides.

Drew popped the button on his jeans and then slid the zipper down slowly. He didn’t think he’d ever been so hard in his life. He couldn’t help the blush that crawled up his face and down his chest as he pushed his jeans down. Once they were past his hips, they fell in a heap at his feet, and he stepped out of them.

He stood there in his briefs, smiling as Chance’s eyes darkened with passion. He closed the space between them and lifted his head for a kiss as Chance’s hands settled on his waist.

Drew worked his hands under Chance’s button-up and the muscle shirt underneath, not bothering with buttons as he slipped them both over Chance’s head. He dropped them on the floor and then let his hands wander over the scarred skin and hard muscle.

“You feel so fucking amazing under my hands.” Drew breathed the words into Chance’s ear, feeling smug when Chance shivered against him.

He felt rather than saw Chance slip his shoes off and then reach for his jeans, but Drew stopped him. He slithered down Chance’s body, landing easily on his knees, with his face level with Chance’s cock. He leaned in to rub his face against the hardness still trapped beneath denim. He took a deep breath, smelling plain soap and clean sweat, a scent he’d quickly come to associate with the other man.

Drew’s hands found Chance’s button fly, and he gave a quick jerk, smiling when all of the buttons let go at once. He curled his hands in the waistband of both the jeans and Chance’s boxers, looking up for permission before pulling them both down at once.

Chance’s cock sprang free, slapping wetly against his belly and causing him to moan with pleasure at the relief it gave him.

Chance’s cock was like the rest of him—long, hard, and gorgeous—and Drew’s mouth watered as he leaned forward to suck on the head, letting the taste of pre-come burst in his mouth.

“Drew… oh my God.” Chance’s long fingers curled into Drew’s hair, pulling gently and making Drew hum his approval. “Fuck… you can’t….” He pulled at Drew’s hair more urgently, and Drew let him fall out of his mouth and climbed to his feet.

“I can’t what? Are you okay?” Drew knew Chance’s experience with men was limited to what they’d done that day in the cave and didn’t want to push him if he wasn’t ready.

Chance crushed them together and slid one hand down into Drew’s underwear to grab a handful of his ass. He plundered Drew’s mouth, eating at it like he was starving, and they were both panting when he pulled back.

“I’m perfect. It’s just if you kept doing that, I was gonna come, and I don’t want to do that yet.” Chance’s voice was almost hoarse with pent-up desire.

Drew rolled his cotton-covered erection against Chance’s naked one, grinning with delight at the multiple hitches in the other man’s breath.

“What do you say we take this to my bedroom? I’ve got a big comfy bed in there.” He waited as Chance stepped out of his jeans and underwear and toed off his socks. Then he walked backward down the hall, pulling Chance with him until suddenly he found himself crushed in Chance’s embrace and pushed up against a wall.

When both of Chance’s wandering hands found their way under Drew’s briefs to cradle his ass, Drew gave in and did what he’d been wanting. He lifted both legs, hooked them around Chance’s waist, and let Chance hold him up with his hands and body, pressing against the wall.

“So fucking hot….” Chance murmured the words against Drew’s mouth just before he pulled them away from the wall and started back down the hall. Drew didn’t even try to lie to himself about how hot it was that Chance could carry him with no problem.

Chance’s mouth seemed to never leave Drew’s skin. He licked the sweat from his neck and left little love bites on his collarbone. Drew could feel him sucking hard on the sensitive skin behind his ear and wondered how much of a girl it made him because he liked the idea of Chance leaving marks on his body that everyone could see.

Drew pulled on Chance’s hair to indicate when he’d found the bedroom door, his mouth too busy sucking a bruise into the soft skin under Chance’s jaw to speak.

Chance walked in the room and quickly strode over to the bed, knelt on the mattress, and knee-walked up until he could gently lay Drew on the pillows.

When Chance pulled back to look down at him, his blue eyes raking over Drew’s body, it made Drew blush. That intense gaze all focused on him was making Drew squirm, but Chance smiled down at him as he smoothed his hands over Drew’s chest.

“You have nothing to be embarrassed about, you know.” He plucked at Drew’s nipples, making them harden before sliding his fingers through his chest hair. “You’re gorgeous.”

Drew moaned, loving the feeling of being worshipped. Being the focus of that intense gaze was almost overwhelming. When his roaming hands reached Drew’s briefs, Chance again looked to Drew for permission before continuing.

Drew knew why he was doing it. After Ezra, Chance didn’t want to do anything to frighten or hurt Drew, but he didn’t understand that he never could because he was nothing like Ezra.

He reached out and grabbed Chance by the arms and pulled him down. Once he had him cradled between his thighs, he took Chance’s face in his hands and looked into his eyes.

“You don’t have to be so careful, Chance. I’m not afraid of you, and I want you to take what you need from me. I’m definitely going to take what I need from you, too, and I won’t break, I promise.” He watched as Chance let Drew’s words sink in and smiled. “I want this with you, baby, so get me naked, okay?”

His smiled widened as Chance’s gaze darkened and then his mouth was being ravaged as Chance finally started to let go of his careful control.

“Want you, Drew….” Chance panted the words when he broke off the kiss to breathe. “Want everything you promised in that fucking cave.”

He worked his mouth down Drew’s neck, then kissed and nipped at his chest and stomach before grabbing his underwear and pulling it off, leaving Drew naked to his gaze.

Drew watched Chance swallow as he looked down at his lover’s swollen cock. He worried that it was too much for Chance, but then Chance smiled and bent to run his tongue through the moisture beading up through the slit.

That first warm touch of Chance’s mouth was like heaven. “Fuuucckkk….” The groan it pulled from Drew made Chance smile, and then Drew’s eyes rolled back into his head as he felt himself sucked into Chance’s mouth.

Chance wrapped his hand around the base of Drew’s cock, using the other arm to hold Drew still as he explored. It felt like he was everywhere, surrounding Drew with sensation.

He wanted to come so badly, but Chance gripped him tight, and Drew wasn’t sure if he knew how close Drew was or if he just liked how Drew felt in his hand.

“Chance… baby, please.” Drew had both fists twisted into the cover of his bed, trying to hold onto his sanity.

Chance pulled off, looking up in concern, but Drew just grabbed him by the hair and pulled him up to kiss him, licking the taste of himself out of Chance’s mouth.

“Please what?”

Drew was so distracted by the kiss that he was confused by the question at first, but then Chance’s cock brushed against his, and the need was back full force.

He pushed Chance down, taking advantage of the other man’s surprise to flip him over and straddle his hips. He knew Chance wouldn’t push back at first.

Drew reached over and opened the drawer beside his bed, grabbed the bottle of lube he kept there, and a condom.

He looked down at Chance. “We know we’re both clean, but if it makes you uncomfortable, I’ll put this on you.” He held the condom out to Chance, and they both remembered the promise Drew had made about being marked on the inside for the first time in his life.

Chance reached out and took the little foil square and smiled before tossing it aside. “I trust you.”

The words lodged in Drew’s chest, expanding the feelings already churning in there. He was falling hard for this man. He bent and kissed him, then sat up and popped the cap on the bottle.

Chance watched his every move, his hands gently massaging Drew’s thighs when he knelt up, drizzled the slick liquid on his fingers, then reached behind himself.

Drew gasped as he circled one finger around his opening, slicking it quickly before sliding in to the first knuckle. He’d always loved this part, being prepped before having a man slide into him. Knowing it was going to be Chance just made it better.

“Oh my God….” Chance sat up, crushing their chests together, and reached for the bottle. “Let me, Drew… please?”

Drew silently handed him the bottle, pulled his own finger out of his ass, and waited impatiently for Chance. He put his hands on Chance’s shoulders and kissed his face as he was insistently rolled onto his back.

Chance shouldered his way between Drew’s thighs, looking on in awe as Drew grabbed his legs and pulled them back, exposing himself for his lover’s eyes.

Chance slicked his fingers and reached for Drew, playing one finger over his already slick hole before sliding it in.

He seemed fascinated by how Drew’s body opened easily for him. “I’ve seen this, you know… on porn, I mean.” His gaze flicked up to Drew’s before sliding back down to where his finger disappeared inside him. “I thought it would be kind of gross… but it’s not.” He sounded so needy.

Drew reached down and stroked Chance’s wrist. “Another one, baby.”

Chance nodded, pulled out his finger, and then pushed back in with two. “It’s intimate… loving—” He leaned in and kissed Drew’s belly and whispered against it. “—and amazing.”

He licked Drew’s cock, and Drew couldn’t help but keen in pleasure. He thought he wanted quick and hard, but the gentle touches and loving words were making everything feel even better.

“Now, Chance… please… need it.” He pulled his legs back farther, exposing himself more.

Chance just smiled and shook his head. “No, Drew… not yet. I won’t hurt you….” He trailed off and added another finger, lazily licking up Drew’s cock, ramping up the pleasure but not giving him enough to come.

He twisted his fingers, and Drew cried out when they slid across his prostate, sending sparks down his spine.

He let go of one leg and grabbed Chance by the hair, pulling hard. “Gotta be now, Chance, or I’m coming without you!”

Chance nodded and kissed the inside of his thigh before he slid his fingers out and leaned up to blanket Drew with his body.

Drew whined at the empty feeling and wrapped both legs high around Chance’s waist and bucked up against him.

“Jesus Christ, you’re so fucking hot!” Chance reached between them and lubed his cock and pressed it against Drew. He tried to push in slowly, but Drew wouldn’t let him.

Digging both heels against Chance’s ass, he pushed him in, not stopping until he could feel the other man’s balls against his ass.

“Oh fuck… that’s so good.” And it was. Drew could feel the twinge of pain fade to the pleasant fullness he knew would be full-blown bliss when Chance got going.

“God, Drew… I didn’t know it would be so tight… and hot… it feels like you’re burning me up in the best way.” He was making tiny jerks with his hips Drew would bet he didn’t know he was making.

“Move, Chance… wanna feel you move.” He had one hand over Chance’s heart and the other curled around his neck.
