“Thank you for fighting for me,” Ethan admitted, licking some powdered sugar from Gene’s finger, and then kissing him.
He felt his man go hard again against his lower back at that one simple action, and he did too.
“Baby, I’d fight to the death for you. This is nothing. We’ll be good. I promise. I can’t wait to get home, and not think about NOLA again.”
Yeah, about that.
“Babe?” Ethan asked.
He glanced down.
“Yeah?”
Ethan came clean.
“I did something.”
Gene stopped chewing his beignet, and got that feeling in his belly.
Uh-oh.
Why did that sound ominous?
“What did you do?” he asked, hoping he wasn’t about to get his ass handed to him in the feelings department. Coming back from the mess inPhiladelphiahad been rough.
“Know how we were going to go on a honeymoon after we were married?”
Oh, shit.
Truth be told, Gene was looking forward to that trip. He really, really, really hoped that Ethan didn’t cancel it.
“Yes. To Puerto Rico for a week after the wedding, why?” he asked.
Ethan glanced over at him.
“We’re not going home. I am absconding you. I need a pre-wedding honeymoon. Alone. With you.”
When he said that, the worries were gone.
In fact, Gene smiled.
“Mr. Blackhawk, are you telling me that I’m your sexual prisoner on this jet, as we head to my favorite island in the whole world?”
He nodded.
“I told the flight crew to lie to you. Elizabeth knew I was doing it. Security warned her, and she cleared it. Callie thinks that I need some time away to regroup, so I got us time off for hopefully bad behavior. I hope you don’t mind that I’m holding you hostage.”
That was all he had to hear.
Gene turned his head and found Ethan’s powder sugar-y mouth with his for a kiss.
It was deep, it was long, and it was perfect.
When he broke it, he was smiling.
“Newsflash, EJ. I’m never saying no to a trip to Puerto Rico. You planned it all out?”
He shrugged.
