The Dark Angels: Tied Together (3 page)

What did that mean? Was he offering…
Josh bit his lower lip to stop the wounded animal sound that wanted to escape as he tried not to think about what he wanted most in the entire world.

“Robby, I know.” He reached out to brush a tear that slipped down his sweet but very sad face. “I love you, too.”

“This is all my fault!” Robin’s face screwed up in anger as he shouted. He turned to stalk closer to the crashing waves. “It was my stupid book!”

Josh carefully scooped up their backpacks, which carried all their earthly processions to go after him.

Josh stood close behind him and tucked Robin’s hair behind his ear then playfully poked him. “Hey, I read it too. It was a pretty good story.” He chuckled at Robin’s surprised expression.

He didn’t advertise he was reading it but he wanted to know what interested Robby so much.

Josh continued with a smile. “I wish we were shape shifters, you know? Then we could go find that werewolf pack of outcasts and just live with them.” Josh paused before smugly adding, “Of course, it would be discovered that I was really their Alpha so I would run things.” Robin tried not to giggle but he couldn’t help it. “Hey, not to worry. I’m sure if we were werewolves, you would have special powers or something in the second book.”

“You are such a butthead.” Robin laughed in spite of their dire situation. Josh prided himself on being able to always make Robin laugh.

The sound of Robin’s musical laughter warmed Josh from the inside. No wonder it was a skill he’d perfected. “We’re going to make this work. I’ll only do this for as long as I have to then we’ll forget it ever happened.”

The frown of despair returned on Robin’s lovely face. “I don’t want some strange man making you do things or doing things to you.” Robin voice shook with emotion. “You always remember your first time.”

“How would you know?” Josh tried to make it sound like a joke but the thought of Robin with someone made his heart burn with jealousy. He didn’t think Robin had been with anyone, but a small piece of him worried.

Robin rolled his eyes. “Every book I have ever read.” His voice dropped lower. “Bad enough we have to do
this
to eat, our first time shouldn’t be with someone we don’t love.” Circling back around to exactly what Josh didn’t want to think about, let alone suggest.

Avoiding where Robin was trying to go with the conversation, Josh reminded him, “Robby, I told you only I would do...what needs to be done. I don’t want you to...You don’t have to...
do
that too!”

Robin’s eyes widen in horror, “I won’t let you do this alone.

Whatever we do, we do together. Beginning and end of story.”

Robin moved closer to him and touched his hand. Their fingers automatically entwined.

He couldn’t believe Robin was actually going to suggest what neither of them should ever even consider. But Josh couldn’t help it. It was funny, but Josh didn’t even know if he was gay.

Josh just knew he had no feelings directed at anyone else. His wants and desires all centered on Robin.
His
Robby.

Hell, as early as kindergarten he’d wanted Robby. It had been a rude awakening when the teacher gently explained he couldn’t marry his
brother
. Still a bitter concept! But they weren’t brothers…

Robin cleared his throat while he was trying to find the courage to speak the words. He knew Robin wouldn’t let him sell his body alone. They had run out of options. “We could…you know…” Robin’s voice trailed off knowing Josh knew where he was going.

Josh sighed, and breathed the words out, “I know you want to be with someone you love the first time...” Josh’s voice trailed off.

He couldn’t even finish the sentence as he stared deep into those beautiful blue green eyes.

“I do, Josh. I really do. I want that for you too, more than anything,” Robin wiped away some stray tears. “Do we have enough money for a room at
that place
?”
That place
Robin was referring to would be the ‘no-tell motel’ a few streets over.

Josh was trying to find revulsion in Robin’s words but found none. So he followed this to its conclusion. “It would be the end of the cash, but…” He turned his head, unable to look at Robby anymore as his voice trailed off into silence.

Josh was so ashamed of himself for allowing Robin to suggest such a thing. He felt like he was using their deplorable circumstances to get what he had always wanted. The silence between them seemed very loud. Even the waves crashing on the shore were quiet in comparison.

Robin tightened his hand in Josh’s hand, squeezing it. His words came out of a choked throat; “You would do that for me?”

He made it sound like Josh was offering him the most wonderful gift in the world.

Josh grabbed the man he had always loved and pulled him into a hug. “Oh Robby, I would do anything for you. Anything at all.” His words were broken but true. “I love you.”

Robin brushed back a stray piece of hair from Josh’s face. “I love you.”

“You’re my best friend.” Josh tried to stop his babbling but it was too late. Luckily, Robby didn’t seem to mind, and he just hugged tighter.

In front of the crashing waves their lips met for the very first time. Josh’s body was singing at the raw joy of feeling the lips he dreamed of on him. Robin’s long hair was whipping them both in the face.

On a soft sigh, Robin’s lips parted and Josh took the invitation.

Their tongues mated awkwardly but soon they found what felt best and went at it wildly, their long lean arms wrapped tighter around each other. Their lower bodies were plastered against each other as they rocked their hardness into each other.

Need, pleasure, and desire all surfaced at the same time propelling the two of them into an exquisite space and one they had no desire to leave. As love and lust twisted, physical need was drowning all reason.

On a tortured moan, Josh tried to push away from Robin.

“Robby. I am so close. We should stop.” Worry combined with the lack of privacy made it feel like it had been forever since he had jerked off. He looked around and saw no one near.

“Mmmmm.” Josh moaned with newly found pleasure as Robin shifted restlessly against him. “Should stop.” He said between kisses.

“Don’t want to. Need you.” In a bold move, Robin’s hands cupped Josh’s ass to bring him in even tighter. Robin’s hands on his ass were directing their cocks to rub just right and it was overwhelming. Their aroused erections surged against one another and the sensation overwhelmed him.

“Oh God! Robby! I am gonna…” Josh felt himself gush pleasure into his jeans in long wet shivering pulses. Again and again sweet waves of relief washed over him. Robin squeezed his ass making the pleasure even more intense.

Robin froze for a moment and then on a strangled gasp came in a frenzied manner rubbing against Josh like his cock had caught on fire and he was trying to rub out the flames. His head thrown back and his mouth open gasping, “Josh!” Robin groaned as if he were being tormented.

Josh thought Robin looked even more beautiful, his face twisted in orgasm. Time stood still. He held Robin as he came apart in his arms. Something powerful was happening between them and Josh had no desire to stop it.

They gently kissed once more before touching foreheads staring into each other’s eyes. Robin was the first to break the silence. “Always. Together. Forever.”

Josh repeated the oath back to the best part of himself.

“Always. Together. Forever.”

Josh couldn’t believe the turn of events. Robin was lying in the clean but dingy little ‘no-tell motel’ waiting for him to finish his shower. His heart raced as he realized he was going finally to be with his soul mate in a way that had always seemed impossible.

Some people didn’t believe in soul mates but Josh knew they existed because of Robin.

As Josh came out of the bathroom Robin brushed past him and sparks at the touch nearly made him groan. He didn’t care that they were both guys. He didn’t care that he had no freaking clue what to do. All that mattered was they would have each other.

Josh ignored the dire straits that led to this dumpy little motel and what tomorrow would bring. He shut out all the scary voices calling out about what he would do and what he would become for them to survive. Josh would have Robby today, tonight and part of tomorrow morning. It was theirs, and Josh would take it greedily.

He wanted to remember every moment in detail to take out and savor for the rest of his life. Josh knew Robin had only agreed to this because of what they would face tomorrow. But tomorrow was a long time away.

Robin was simply everything good in the world. Josh knew he was in no way worthy of Robin, but even though he wasn’t good enough for Robin, he knew no one could love him more than he did.

Robin took his shower quickly. When he emerged Josh decided he didn’t care about right or wrong. Not now. This one moment in time was theirs. He was determined to make the most of it.

Robin was all pink and clean from the shower. He looked shy and more than a little nervous as he lay down next to Josh on the bed. The thin cheap towel wrapped around his hips did nothing to hide his raging hard on. If the outline of the towel was accurate, the boy was hung.

Josh lay there in the clean pair of boxers he had put on after his shower. He didn’t look down because he knew his erection was trying to break free through the split fly.

The only sound in the room was their breathing. Their eyes locked onto one other. Silence seemed to boom between them.

Suddenly Robin started to giggle. Robin always giggled when he was nervous. It was adorable. Josh couldn’t help resist his squeal of happy. Robin bounced a little on the bed. Laughter bubbled up from deep inside and he followed suit. The laughter was rolling through them and off the walls. As they laughed their bodies rolled together in a soft crash.

Very soon they weren’t laughing anymore. Eager hands were uncovering anxious flesh more than ready for attention. Boxers and the sad towel found their way to the floor. Lips met lips.

After several minutes of heated play, Josh pulled back. “What should we...how should we...um, do this?”

Robin blushed before burying his face in Josh’s shoulder.

“You are asking me? Seriously?” Then he giggled. “Right, like I am the
expert
.” Josh laughed too and nudged him.

Even though he was nineteen and Robin was eighteen, they didn’t have any practical experience. An abusive household is not conducive to dating let alone sexual experimentation. Certainly not trying things out with same sex. Josh could only imagine what would have happened if his father had caught Robin with another guy. Hell, a freaking book got them tossed out.

Robin nudged him back. “I only know what happens in books.”

Josh shrugged and decided it was time to lick Robin’s throat. “But you have read more than me.” Josh was completely unconcerned with both of their total inexperience.
The boy had a
gorgeous throat. It was so long and elegant.
Josh swiped his wet tongue down that throat and then sucked up some flesh at the base of Robin’s neck.

Robin jerked like he was hit with an electrical current. “Oh, God,” Robin moaned low and husky. “I want you.” He stopped to groan with hot need. Eighteen and never been touched.

Robin groaned between long wet kisses, “More. Oh, I need.”

His hips thrust up sharply as if desperately seeking something.

Encouraged by the positive reception, Josh continued lavishing attention on Robin to see which places made him moan and which places made him gasp with need. He decided to do what he dreamed of Robby doing to him. He was hoping that would work. Josh skimmed down Robin’s beautifully smooth, lightly muscled body to reach a very erect cock that was weeping with desire.

Robin was braced up on his elbows to watch what Josh did.

It was Robin’s eyes on Josh that set him on fire. Knowing every one of his actions was watched made Josh burn up. He very, very slowly placed a long wet lick from the base of Robin’s cock to the glossy tip. Josh made sure it was worth watching.

Robin’s fists grabbed at the thin sheets covering the bed as his hips jutted forward to help his cock get some more of his attention. Josh’s fist wrapped around Robin as his mouth sucked the top of the cock like it was an ice cream cone. Josh hoped the feeling felt incredible to Robin.

“Too good,” Robin moaned and tried to shift away.

Josh wouldn’t let him. He knew Robin was on the edge. The moment seemed to freeze indefinitely. Then within a span of a breath everything happened. Josh’s hand moved up and down as his mouth sucked hard and fast.

On a strangled yell, the beautiful longhaired boy helplessly shot out pulses of come into the moist heat of Josh’s mouth.

Again and again. His body shook with the intensity of the physical sensation Josh was making him feel.

Robin moaned as he pushed his cock deeper into Josh’s mouth. “So good, Josh. Oh. So. Good.” His lips were whispering the words as if the feelings were just too good to do more.

After Robin was spent, he collapsed back onto the bed. He lay there trying to catch his breath. A shy look of satisfaction made him look deliciously innocent and completely debauched all at the same time.

The fact that Josh had put that look on his face was more than he could handle. He’d just made Robin come and he was aroused beyond words. “Robby,” Josh groaned. He was in intense pain with the need to come.

Robin’s head popped off the pillow to see Josh. His sexy smile almost made Josh shoot off before he even touched him and that would have been a complete waste of an orgasm. Robin whispered in the sexiest voice he had ever heard, “Come here, Josh.”

He moved up Robin’s lean body quickly. Robin pulled Josh so he was straddling his smooth chest. Innocent and sexy, Robin opened his mouth so Josh could slide right in. Josh was so needy that as soon as those amazing plush lips closed around him, liquid elation rushed out to fill that wonderful mouth. Robin’s cheeks indented with the strong sucking while his fist wrapped around Josh’s exploding dick. His cock was tugged as he was sucked to completion.
