He slowly drags his mouth off of my cock. “Look at me, Eli.” I do, my eyes finding his immediately. “You don’t have to say sorry. You’re fine. Take what you want. I’m good.”

I’m not really sure what that means, but when he sinks his mouth over my cock again, my hips thrust up. He makes a noise of approval low in his throat.Oh.I grab his hair, needing to hold on to something. Needing something to ground me. There’s another pleased noise from him. I thrust up, and my eyes nearly roll back.

He moans again, like he’s enjoying this too. Like I really am good for him. My thighs start to shake, and my body starts to tingle. He pulls off me and slowly strokes my dick. “You’re so hot like this, Eli. So fucking sexy.”

My body jolts, pre-cum dripping down my shaft and over his hand. “I’m going to—I… I think I—”

Nic pulls his hand away, and the second his tongue touches the head of my dick, I’m coming. He closes his lips around me and hollows his cheeks. I cry out, my whole body shaking as I spill into his mouth. My back arches, every nerve lighting up. Nic moans around me, swallowing over and over.

When the orgasm is done, Nic keeps sucking, and my legs start to twitch. It feels so good it almost hurts, and after a second, I can’t take it anymore. I choke out his name as I try to tell him I can’t take any more. He pulls off me, pressing a kiss to the inside of my thigh and then my hip bone before crawling up and resting on his side next to me. “You good, doll?”

He looks entirely too smug. “Yeah. I’m good.”

“You sure fucking are.” He smirks, then leans in to kiss my cheek. “Let’s get up and get ready, doll. I want boba.”

Oh fuck yes. Orgasms and boba. What a way to start the day. “But what about you?” I ask, gesturing to his still-hard cock.

“I’m good, Eli. Not everything is about me. I like taking care of you,” he says, warm sincerity in his tone.

“You really mean that, don’t you?”

He nods. “I do. It’s fun to watch you experience new things. I’ve had a lot of orgasms in my life. I’m good.”

“I don’t like that. Don’t talk to me about your orgasms.” It comes out sharper than I mean for it to, and I want to take the words back. Goddammit, I’m always so snappy with him.

To my surprise, he laughs. “Are you jealous, doll?”

“No,” I snap, and he raises an eyebrow. “Okay. Maybe a little bit.”

“That’s adorable.” He flashes me a bright smile. “You have nothing to be jealous about.”

I look away from him and stare at the ceiling. I sigh. “I just don’t want to be… I don’t know—anotherto you.”

He hums thoughtfully. “I’m pretty sure you could be everything to me, Eli. How does everything sound?”

My heart stops, then rapidly restarts, beating furiously. “That wouldn’t be so bad, I guess. Ugh. I’m sorry. I’m not trying to be a brat.”

“You’re not at all. I think your feelings are valid, but I’m not going to let you feel bad about yourself. Now c’mon.” He tickles my side, making me burst into laughter. “Let’s go pretend to be roommates in public for a few minutes so I can get you back home and snuggle the shit out of you.”

My stomach sinks. “I hate that.”

“Yeah,” he sighs. “Me too, doll. But it’s just for a little while.”

I roll to my side and prop myself up to look at him. “How are we going to tell them?”

Fear flashes in his eyes. “I don’t actually know. How do you think they’ll take it?”

I grimace. “I don’t know either.”

We both fall silent. I feel like the silence says it all.

Chapter 23

Nic

As soon as Eli climbs in my passenger seat, he reaches across and grabs my hand. It’s one of the cutest things I’ve ever seen. It’s also a little heartbreaking considering when I think back, I can’t remember the last time I held Leo’s hand.

I say I did my best with him. And to be fair to myself, I was juggling a lot, and there’s no excuse for cheating, but… Did I neglect him and his needs more than I thought? Did I stop doing small things? Like holding his hand in the car? Opening his door for him? Did I stop making him feelseenand important?
