between our bodies. I coated both our hands and my chest with my release.
I laid there like a limp noodle as Shawn rode my body to his orgasm. He shouted to the ceiling as he came.
His body continued to twitch as he covered my body with his. My legs lay loose on either side of him but I was able to wrap my arms around him. I stroked his back gently.
I loved what we just did. It was different than all the other times we'd made love. It was as if I was seeing the real Shawn for the first time. I smiled and nuzzled my lips into his neck. This moment couldn't be more perfect. So caught up in my afterglow I couldn't control the words as they sprung off my tongue.
"I love you."
Shawn lifted himself up on his elbows to smile
down at me. "I like you a lot, too." After he said that, he bent down and put a kiss to the tip of my nose.
I think I must have been losing my mind because I was certain he just said he liked me. What the fuck was that? I'm good enough to fuck and give a key to your house but no confessions of love ? My expression turned grim and I could tell Shawn felt the anger rolling off me.
"What's the matter?"
"What's the matter? Are you fucking seriously asking me that question?" I snapped the words at him. I 115

was totally having a drama queen moment, but to have the person I love tell me he likes me, excuse me, likes me a lot, was just a punch in the heart.
"Hey, why are you so upset, Marc?" Shawn's eyebrows scrunched up in confusion. "I thought we were having a good time and now you're yelling at me."
I laughed as I pushed him off me. "Yell? I haven't even started to yell, mister. Now get the hell off me." He rolled to the side and I grabbed my pants and started to get dressed. I cringed as I smeared the cooling cum on my stomach as I pulled my pants up.
I knew I shouldn't be mad at him but when you
were living on a life and death timeline, a person tends to get a little jumpy.
"Are you leaving?"
I stopped in the process of dressing to look him straight in the face. "No, I'm not leaving. I'm just going to go bake you a cake," I said sarcastically. "Of course I'm fucking leaving. I'm sick of putting myself out there to get nothing in return, so I'm going home."
Shawn pulled up his pajama bottoms and relaxed
back on the couch. "Is this because I didn't say I love you?"
I threw my hands up in frustration. Was he always this dense? "Sort of, yeah. We spend all our time together, we fuck constantly, and I have a freaking key to your 116

house. If this isn't love I don't know what we've been doing together these past few weeks."
"Marc, I have very strong feelings for you but I can't just go blurting those words out like you do. That's not me."
I whipped my head around so fast I was surprised I didn't get whiplash. "Do you honestly think I would say those words to just anyone? You're such a fucking guy." I grabbed my car keys off the side table and headed for the door. I needed space and I needed it fast before I broke down and started crying.
Shawn jumped up, beat me to the front door, and
held it shut so I couldn't open it. "Please don't go. Let's talk about this."
I kept my eyes toward the floor, because if I looked at him I'd lose what composure I had. "There's nothing to talk about. We're at different places where our relationship is concerned and I just need some space at the moment."
Shawn stepped away from the door and I ran
outside without looking back. If I saw him standing in the doorway I would crack and run right back into his arms.
I was running out of time and if me leaving tonight lit a fire under Shawn's ass to admit to himself that he loved me, then so be it. I started my car and pulled out of Shawn's driveway.
