Page 74 of Hold On

Dominic couldn’t stand to listen any longer. He went into the tent. They both looked shocked so he guessed they’d not expected him to have heard them. “Don’t fall out over me. I get why Will doesn’t like me. It’s easier to understand that than why youdolike me. I don’t want to come between you.” He paused. “I never thought I’d meet anyone who’d want to stick around once they knew what I’d done. And along came Ren.”

Dominic glanced at him, then faced Will. “What I’d failed to factor in was that most people have friends and family who love them and want the best for them. I know you wish me out of your brother’s life, but I won’t step aside unless Ren asks me to. One thing I have learnt over the years is to hold onto what makes me happy. Ren is the first friend I’ve ever had and I know we’re only just getting to know one another but I really like him. He’s fun and interesting and smart.” He repeated the words Ren had used.

“He’s been hurt,” Will said.

“Not by me. Never by me.” Dominic hoped that stayed true.

“I’m taking him to Dad’s birthday party on Saturday,” Ren said.

Will sucked in his cheeks, then pushed past Dominic out of the tent.

“Can we still dig?” Ren called.

“Do what the fuck you like,” Will called back. “But don’t mess up my site.”

Ren smiled at Dominic. “He’ll come round.”

Dominic doubted that.

As they set off towards the spot where Dominic had pitched the tent, Dominic had the sensation that they were being watched. He glanced around but no one was looking their way.

“Okay?” Ren asked.

“Yeah. I thought we were being watched.”

Ren glanced back. “Can’t see anyone.”

But that didn’t mean they weren’t under observation. Dominic squashed his sigh, but he was worried.

Ren chuckled when he crawled into the tent and saw the air mattress. “Yes, yours is bigger than mine.”

He dropped what he was carrying, then began to remove his clothes. When he pulled down his boxers, Dominic’s mouth lost all moisture.

“What are you waiting for?” Ren asked.

“What are you doing?”

Ren frowned. “I have to explain?”

Dominic had barely managed to get rid of his boots and socks before Ren pulled him down.

“Too slow. You’re supposed to be fun, interesting and smart. You got me all excited.” Ren peeled him out of his T-shirt, then licked across Dominic’s mouth, before sucking on his upper lip as he tightened his hold on him.

“So sexy,” Ren muttered in between kisses. “Aren’t I?”

Dominic chuckled. A moment later, they were rolling on the mattress, consuming each other with hard, wet open-mouthed kisses, fighting to get their hands all over each other. When their lips weren’t meshed together, an intoxicating mixture of groans and chuckles and gasps spilled from their mouths. Ren unfastened Dominic’s trousers and pulled out his cock, rubbing it against his equally hard dick. Dominic had his fingers threaded in Ren’s hair as their kisses grew wilder and deeper, and all the time, their cocks slipped and slid together.

Somehow Ren managed to get Dominic out of the rest of his clothes, then they were writhing together, limbs entwined, hands on each other’s backsides, grabbing air when they could. Dominic was drowning in lust, everything in his head—apart from what they were doing now—had disappeared into another dimension. This was everything. He was descending in deep, warm water and taking Ren with him. Ren licked and kissed and sucked and nipped and caressed with his tongue and his teeth and the rasp of his cheek until Dominic couldn’t breathe. Every cell of his body felt overloaded with pleasure.

When Ren trailed his tongue down the centre of Dominic’s body, all the way to his navel, and looked up at him as he did it, Dominic tensed. The moment Ren’s hot mouth wrapped around Dominic’s aching cock, a cry burst from his mouth.

“Oh God, fuck…”

Ren skated his tongue over the crest of Dominic’s cock, swirled it around, then fluttered it over the tip before he took the top couple of inches into his mouth and sucked hard. If Ren hadn’t also had a hand wrapped tight around the base of Dominic’s cock, that one suck would have made him come.Bloody hell.

Shining eyes smiled up at him. Ren let him out of his mouth and licked his lips.

“You’re a mouthful.”
