“Yesssss.”

My stomach doesn’t stop putting on the gymnastics performance all night, only it feels good, like I’m Simone Biles or something. I’ve never felt this way before, never liked someone this much. I just have to hope it doesn’t ever become too much for Perry.

CHAPTER TWENTY

Perry

So far, the whole being-a-boyfriend thing is no different from what Theo and I were doing before, so maybe everyone had been right. If that’s the case, I can easily handle this.

And his friends are cool too. I like to watch him with them, see how he lets go and watch him in his element. Theo is a people person if I ever saw one.

I’m glad everything went well when he told them about us. I would have hated for someone to be weird to him about the fact that he’s with me…because I’m a boyfriend…Christ. What in the hell is happening here?

“Did you drive?” I ask Theo when I get off work.

“No, I rode with the guys.”

“I think someone was hoping I’d ask him to go home with me,” I tease, just to earn myself one of his smiles. They’re like cotton candy—sweet and addicting.

“Can you blame me? I have a totally hot boyfriend.”

I roll my eyes, but yes, I’m grinning, and it’s so stupid and ridiculous. What has he done to me? “You called me hot.”

“You are.”

“I know.” I nod toward the door, and we head out together.

It doesn’t take us long to get back to the house. Ty got off earlier than me—him and Brax already in their room as we head to ours—mine. I mean mine. What the fuck?

“I need to shower.” I pull some boxer briefs from my drawer.

“Can I…do that with you?”

The simple question has blood rushing to my groin. I’ve always loved sex and people’s bodies—exploring them, tasting them, losing myself in them and having them lose themselves in me, but it’s next level when it comes to Theo. My cock is already throbbing like I’ve never taken a damn shower with anyone before.

“We don’t have to,” Theo adds.

“Are you kidding me? Yes. All the yesses in the world. I was just dickstracted by the thought of you wet and naked.”

“Did you just say dickstracted?”

“I did.” I wink, then pull a pair of shorts out for him.

“I don’t get underwear?”

“Nope. I like you commando.”

We head into the bathroom, where I turn the shower on. Theo watches me as I strip out of my clothes, not moving to do the same.

“I think you’re drooling,” I joke.

“I wouldn’t be surprised.”

“Jesus, I can’t believe you didn’t know you’re bisexual before me.”

“Guess there’s something special about you.”

My heart melts, like really, how is that a thing that happens? And shouldn’t it be miserable instead of the greatest fucking thing to ever happen to a guy? “Best boyfriend ever.”
