Kindle Notes & Highlights
The kind of slick heat you achieve after a rigorous drill sesh with another man.
Already suss
I give the side of his leg a slap in demonstration, my palm stinging in the aftermath.
LMAO DAWG U JUST MET HIM
“Yeah, I’d like that a lot. Can I have your number?”
Omg he already fumbled
His smile is soft. Sweet, almost. “Deal. And Brad? I will text.”
BRAD HES FLIRTING WITH U
Step one in Brad’s Guide to Finding Himself and Falling in Love: Make a new friend. Nailed it.
Brad: Works for me! I live down the street, so text me when you’re on your way, and I’ll walk over. Can’t wait to see you!
Brad is the rizzler without even trying
Fuck. This man. I barely know him, and I’m already wondering what kind of fence he’d like around his backyard. White picket?
I frown. “It’s customary to wink at your gym-bros, Jason.”
OMG
“Are you kidding me? I love meat in my mouth.”
MAKE IT STOP
Pretty sure Basil and I are both in agreement that my date is hot as fuck.
Basil knows the tea
“Yeah, man. It’s been a while for me, you know? I miss, just, like…touching someone. Holding.” Fu-u-uck. How long would it take to custom-order a ring?
Brad cringes, his eyes sorrowful. “I’m so sorry, Joey. I really am. I… I’m straight.” Oh. Ohhh. Well, fuck.
Fuck is right
“Are you a boob or an ass man?”
The important questions
I’ll switch that whole watersports thing to motorboating. No way to confuse that.”
I cant
“He’s like… If niceness were a man,” I say. “His eyes are warm like brownies. And he’s all muscly in a kinda soft way? Like a loaf of challah. Add some chocolate sprinkles on top for his hair, and there you have it.”
Joey gives me an odd look. “Do you use the stoplight system often?” “I mean… I drive, so yes?”
safe words are important
Family isn’t always given, you know? Sometimes it’s earned. And I think that makes it all the more important. Choosing to love? I don’t think there’s anything greater than that.”
“Hey, Joey?” I say, trying not to let my nerves show. He waits patiently. Always patient. “So, uh, it turns out I really like your face. And, if you’re still amenable, I’d very much like to greet your tonsils with my tongue.”
I decide, despite the limitations of my body, I’m going to try very hard to have Joey’s babies.
He preens, even as his cheeks flush. And the man thinks he doesn’t have a praise kink.
