smile against the skin of his shoulder and he felt the answering smile, “I’ll be so damn careful with you, Jonah. I swear.”
“And on campus.” He added quickly, before he lost his nerve. “We can’t be together on campus. It would be unprofessional and I…
“I know how hard you’ve worked to get where you are. I don’t want to jeopardize that.” Reed raised his head to meet his eyes, “I told you, I don’t want to ever hurt you, Jonah.”
The raw honesty in his voice and in his eyes tipped Jonah over the edge and he nodded, “I’d like to explore this… attraction, with you then.”
“Oh thank god.” Reed breathed as he leaned forward and took Jonah’s lips in another searing kiss. “I wasn’t sure what I’d do if you’d said no.”
Jonah chuckled a little at the desperation Reed didn’t try to hide, “Is that why you got naked and in the shower with me? To try and sway me?”
“Figured it couldn’t hurt.” Reed winked playfully before kissing him again lightly, “I swear we can go slow and I won’t do anything you don’t want but dammit, Jonah, I want to touch you so bad right now. It’s killing me to hold back.”
Reed canted his hips forward for the first time, letting his cock rub against Jonah, and pleasure washed through Jonah in waves. Pleasure and something else. Some deep, aching need that he had never known lurked inside of him. But this man had. He’d seen it that first night they met and he’d been chasing it ever since.
“Oh God, Reed.” Jonah’s own hips shifted forward of their own accord, his cock so hard it throbbed, “Please.”
“Please what?” Reed’s voice was tight but teasing.
“I-I… I don’t know. Just… do something.”
“You want me to get you off?” Reed’s lips were at his ear and Jonah only realized in that moment that he’d closed his eyes again, caught in the sensations. “Because I need to hear you say it if you want me to touch your cock.”
“Touch me. Yes, touch my cock.” Jonah blurted, all shyness and hesitation buried beneath the need for this man to help him find release.
“Turn around.” Reed grunted, his hands going to Jonah’s hips and flipped him so that he faced the cool shower wall, his back against Reed’s broad chest, his cock prodding against his backside.
“Um…” His breath caught and panic coursed through him.
“Shhh.” Reed soothed again, “I’m not going to take you like this our first time. Just relax. I’m only going to touch you.”
Jonah closed his eyes, breathing out a sigh of relief with Reed’s confirmation that he wasn’t going to attempt to fuck him in the shower. Jonah might be a virgin but he knew how things worked. He had toys that he’d tried out on occasion when the mood sparked. He’d just never had a man and none of his toys were the size of the cock currently pressing against his backside now, which worried him immensely.
“Just breathe.” Reed reminded him, his teeth nibbling sensually along Jonah’s neck. “Breathe and tell me, has anyone else ever touched your cock?”
Big hands slid down his chest, playing with his nipples before one slipped lower. He felt Reed’s fingers curl in the hair at the base of his shaft and he groaned. Reed slid lower still, palming Jonah’s cock and then his balls.
“Jonah?” he whispered, voice teasing.
“I… um… no. Nobody but me.”
“God, that shouldn’t make me so hot but it does. I like being the first man to stroke you.” Reed’s words drifted to him as his head lolled back on the man’s chest and his hand finally began to stroke Jonah’s hard length. “I’m going to love being the first man to make you come.”
Jonah whimpered but Reed only tightened his hold on him. He wrapped his free arm around Jonah’s chest, holding him tight as if preparing for his legs to go weak. The hand on his cock stroked him just the way he liked and he wondered how on earth this man seemed to know even this about him. It was as if Reed Matheson had been built specifically for Jonah, like he completed him in some way he hadn’t known that he was missing.
As Reed squeezed and pumped his heavy cock, Jonah felt Reed’s own against his backside. More than once he opened his mouth to tell Reed that he would return the favor, that he would give him a hand, that if he just let Jonah turn around that
