“I’ll wear the gold shorts next time we go out with the guys.”

I shook my head. “Nope. Those are home-only shorts now. No one else gets to see you or your stupacular dick in them ever again.”

Isaac laughed and ran his fingers through my hair. “I like you all possessive. Okay, how about we do the same stakes. You owe me a BJ in the location of my choice?”

“I’m going to end up blowing you somewhere insane, aren’t I?”

Isaac and I had gotten each other off in various places since we started hooking up. The most daring being the pantry at the party, and the gym sauna, but we’d also gotten off in our cars, outside when we had lots of cover, and once in the stairwell of our apartment building.

I still wasn’t sure if I was into exhibitionism or if it was the threat of being caught that made me hot. Isaac was definitely into exhibitionism, and it probably wouldn’t take much to tip me into that category the more we experimented, especially with how creative and daring Isaac could be.

He grinned. “I can neither confirm nor deny that statement.”

“You’re going to corrupt me.”

He burst out laughing. “I hate to break it to you, babe. But you’ve already been corrupted. I just help bring it to the surface.”

I laughed with him. “Fine. I accept your terms. Now get your butt up before I roll you over and we work on making a third wet spot here.”

“Your command is my wish.” He pecked a kiss against my mouth and rolled off me. “Although that wasn’t the threat you seem to think it was.”

Chuckling, I sat up and swung my legs over the bed. “Maybe not, but it worked. What are you doing?” I asked as he started gathering the candles he’d placed around the room.

“I’m romancing you, remember? We’ll set them up in the bathroom and take a shower by candlelight.”

“Okay, nowthat’sromantic.” I stood and stretched my arms above my head.

“Right?” He shot me a triumphant look. “I’m nailing the romance thing. And nailing you.” He waggled his eyebrows.

“I nailed you too.”

“Yes, you did.” He picked up the last candle and balanced it in his arms with the others. “And it was stupacular.”

Laughing, I followed him out of his room and into the bathroom.

A few hours ago, I’d been convinced that Isaac was about to break things off and I’d have to find a way to go back to being his friend.

Now we were boyfriends and about to take a candlelight shower before spending our first night together. And I knew for sure that he loved me as much as I loved him.

Isaac was mine. I’d never been happier, and I knew everything would be okay as long as I had not just my best friend but my partner by my side.

It might have been a crazy ride getting here, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.

ISAAC

“Isaac,”a voice said, sounding far away and a bit distorted.

I made a weirdharrumphnoise as I slowly drifted out of sleep.

“Babe.”

Jamie?

“Hmmm?” I cracked one eye open, the veil of slumber lifting as I became aware of my surroundings.

Jamie and I were in his bed, only instead of being cuddled together like we had when we’d fallen asleep, I was lying on top of him like a cape, pinning him facedown on the bed.
