here to talk to
Chris he’s made me very uncomfortable. I get the feeling he is…
I don’t know… judging me, perhaps.” He bumped his shoulder
into Logan’s arm. “Will you stop gawking if I introduce you to
him?”

“I’m not gawking.” He turned and smiled at his longtime
friend. “And yes, please do introduce us”
“Huh.” Logan could see Adam was confused by his attitude.
He knew Logan enough to see there was no sexual awareness on
his part, so he couldn’t understand the sudden interest.
“Okay, what am I missing here?” his friend asked, crossing his
arms over his chest. “I know Chris isn’t doing anything for you.”
He leaned closer and peered into Logan’s eyes. “I don’t see that
twinkle you get in those grayish blue eyes of yours when a guy
catches your attention, so why do you want to meet him?”
“He seems to be friendly?” He shrugged a little and studied
the guy carefully before speaking again. “As trite as this will
sound, he looks familiar. I’m not quite sure what it is about him,
but it feels like I’ve met him before and I can’t remember when
or where.”
“That’s crazy, but good enough for me. Let’s go.”
Smiling, Logan followed Adam out into the lobby area.

The pretty lady was listening to her friend talk to a few of the
women waiting for their appointments, but focused on them the
second they walked across the waiting area. Smiling at Adam, she
got up from her chair and went to meet them halfway.
“I swear doll, you get more magnificent every time I see you.”
Adam gave her a small hug and a kiss to each cheek.
“I see you’re still the same sweet talker you were last week.”
She rolled her eyes playfully and winked at Adam, then turned
towards Logan, curiosity shinning in her eyes. Obviously, Adam
and Logan’s closeness hadn’t been lost on her. “Is this a new
boyfriend?” she asked, perusing Logan from his hair to the suit
he was wearing.
Adam shot him an amused look and they both laughed. “Lord
no, girl,” he said. “This is Logan, my best friend since we were
little boys and played with Barbie dolls.”
“Oh, please,” Logan joked. “I never played with Barbie dolls.

Don’t remember doing it with you, anyway.”
He saw Gabi laugh away her embarrassment and stick her
hand out for him to shake. “Nice to meet you, Logan, I’m Gabi.
I apologize for assuming… I shouldn’t have.”
Logan smiled at her and released her hand. “Don’t worry
about it.” He caught some movement to his left and turned his
attention to the hot blond guy rapidly approaching.
“Adam.” He gave the other man a tight hug. “Thank you
so much for squeezing us in today. Gabi said you pulled some
strings.”
“Well, being close friends with me does get you guys perks
and privileges with the owner.” Adam winked at Gabi.
“Surely does.” He turned to Logan and gave him a very
obvious once over. “And who do we have here?”
Logan liked him on the spot. He liked the way he carried
himself and his no nonsense attitude. Not only was the guy
beautiful, but there was something infectious about his personality
as well, something that pulled him in.
He was skinny and as tall as Logan, which put him a little
over six feet. Having no muscle mass to speak of, he looked long
and elegant. Soft eye shadow and lip gloss gave his features a
delicate, almost ethereal look. His hair was blond on top, dark
brown on the bottom, layered and shoulder length. He had high
maintenance written all over him.
Logan stuck his hand out and smiled when Christian
immediately grabbed it. “Logan Brandenburg.”
“Christian Murphy. It’s a pleasure to meet you, gorgeous.”
“You as well.”
Something warm passed between the two men, and Logan
knew they could be friends given the opportunity. Considering
how peculiar he was when it came to making new friends,
