Lovingly Yours

by Jerry Cole

  “Of course not. Being with you is the best thing to happen to me since I discovered Copic markers,” he said, pulling my face down to his. “You and I are a team, Josh Green. I won’t run out on you. When things like this happen, I won’t run, Josh. I am going to stand and fight for us.”

  He kissed my eyelids and my forehead and I wrapped my arms around him and did what I never thought I would. I cried tears of happiness in this house. For the first time since we arrived, I wasn’t worried about what horrible trick this place would throw at us. Ian wouldn’t quit, and I wouldn’t either.

  He pushed me back onto the mattress and kissed me slowly.

  “No more running away, for either of us, okay?”

  I nodded.

  “And when we get back, I’m going to need my own key and some things from home.”

  “Why?”

  “Because a family should live together, and you and I are family,” he said.

  I couldn’t find the words to tell him how good that sounded to me. It sounded like everything I ever wanted, all wrapped up with a bow. I pulled him down against my body and rolled over, tucking him under my body.

  “You said it, too late to take it back now,” I said before taking his mouth.

  He returned the kiss, flicking the tip of his tongue against my lips until I gave him entry. I settled my weight on my elbows and took my time tasting him. I caught all of his soft sighs and low moans in my mouth, feeding the growing ache in my crotch. He shifted his hips, rubbing his stiff cock against the growing bulge in my pants.

  “This damned dog is in my chair! Hiya! Get away, dog!”

  The sound of my father’s voice broke the magic spell that surrounded us.

  “I guess you better sort that out,” Ian said, with a sheepish smile.

  “I guess I better. But don’t you move.”

  “I won’t,” he said.

  “Promise?”

  “I won’t leave, I promise.”

  I hopped off of the bed and looked back at him from the door. It was the same room, the same house, but this time everything was just the way it should’ve been.

  “Josh!” Harold screamed from the living room.

  “Coming.” Dad.
